Title: Semiconductor radiation detector with enhanced charge collection
Inventor: APOTOVSKY BORIS
IPC: H01L27/146
Filed: 1996-10-04
Abstract: A radiation detector for detecting ionizing radiation. The detector includes a semiconductor (502) having at least two sides. A bias electrode (504) is formed on one side of the semiconductor (502). A signal electrode (506) is formed on a side of the semiconductor (502) and is used to detect the energy level of the ionizing radiation. A third electrode (508) (the control electrode) is also formed on the semiconductor (502). The control electrode (508) shares charges induced by the ionizing radiation with the signal electrode (506), until the charge clouds are close to the signal electrode (506). The control electrode (508) also alters the electric field (518) within the semiconductor (502), such that the field guides the charge clouds toward the signal electrode (506) when the clouds closely approach the signal electrode (506). As a result, trapping of charge carrying radiation (i.e., electrons or holes) is minimized, and low-energy tailing is virtually eliminated.

The computer system includes a database for storing energy usage values and time values; a PCsoftware logging routine for acquiring the values of energy consumed from the electric power system by the load, for determining corresponding time values for times atwhich the energy was consumed by the load, and for storing the energy usage values and time values in the database; and a PC software calculation routine for retrieving a predetermined count plus one of pairs of those values from the database, with one of the time values corresponding thereto being about equal to the predetermined time. The calculation routine determines a first demand value from a pair of the energy usage values and a pair of the time values corresponding thereto, and also determines at least one second demand value from at least another pair of the energy usage values and at least another pair of the time values corresponding thereto. The calculation routine averages the first demand value with the at least one second demand value to determine the demand usage value which is determined over a time interval about equal to the predetermined count times a predetermined time interval.
Patent CA-2238170-A1 (CA)
Title: Process for the production of endotropine
Inventor: SCHAUPP ALBERT
IPC: C07D451/02
Filed: 1998-05-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of endotropine by reducing tropanone with hydrogen catalytically activated by Raney nickel or Raney copper. The prior art processes known from US patents 2,366,760 and 2,746,976 use an overpressure and organic solvents, so that there is a high fire and explosion risk when working up the reaction batch. This problem is obviated by the invention in that the tropanone, in aqueous solution with hydrogen, in a closed system, at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature, is subject to turbulent action at 1000 to 1500 r.p.m. The process according to the invention leads to average yields of 94%.

Title: Device for exchanging roll supports on winding stations
Inventor: HERRMANN RUDOLF
IPC: B65H29/00
Filed: 1999-03-02
Abstract: For intermediate storage, printed products are often wound onto winding cores mounted on roll supports (3) with a horizontal winding axis. After intermediate storage the printed products are unwound again. For winding-up and un-winding, a roll support (3) is positioned in a winding station and when winding-up or un-winding is complete the roll support (3) is replaced by another one. In order to serve an arrangement of winding stations (W) and storage positions (L) for roll supports (3) efficiently and possibly in a fully automated manner on as little space as possible and with an orientation of winding stations (W) and storage positions (L) substantially freely adaptable to given conditions, a manipulator (1) is used for manipulation and transport of the roll supports (3). This manipulator is movable in x-, y-, and z-directions and rotatable around a vertical rotation axis. It comprises at least two coupling means (2) arranged around the vertical rotation axis with an angle of 90° between them. The manipulator-coupling-means (2) can each be coupled to a coupling means (2') arranged on the rear narrow side of each roll support (3). For an exchange of roll supports, the manipulator (1), to which a roll support (3) is coupled, is moved to the winding station (W) such that the roll support (3) to be replaced can be coupled to the second coupling means (2) of the manipulator. Then the roll support (3) is removed from the winding station (W), the manipulator (1) is rotated by 90° in order to orient the other roll support to the winding station (W), the other roll support (3) is introduced into the winding station (W) and is de-coupled. Then the manipulator (1) is withdrawn together with the removed roll support.
