Abstract: An apparatus (200) for wetting and coating ophthalmic lenses having a tank with a cleaning or coating solution and a handling system (212) for sequentially moving a lens and the solution in relation to each other, to wet the lens. A master control module (232) is coupled to the handling system and configured execution a wetting profile. The wetting profile moves the lens to obtain a generally consistent lens surface wetting speed so that the lens coating has a more uniform thickness. According to a method, lenses are wetted in a liquid bath. The lens is placed in a handling system which moves the lens with respect to the bath according to a wetting profile. The wetting profile is based on the incremental vertical lens surface slope with respect to the surface of the solution.

Filed: 2009-03-30
Abstract: A communications device includes a signal input for receiving both wideband and in-band, narrowband communication signals having wideband communications data that is transmitted over a wideband communications channel and narrowband communications data that is transmitted within an in-band, narrowband channels over the same wideband communications channel. A circuit splits the communications signals into a wideband signal channel and narrowband signal channels. A narrowband filter within the wideband signal channel filters the wideband communications signal and removes any narrowband communications signals. A demodulator within the wideband signal channel demodulates the filtered wideband communications signal to obtain any wideband communications data. An in-band, narrowband demodulators are positioned within the narrowband signal channels and demodulate the narrowband communications signals to obtain any narrowband communications data.

Abstract: Absorption machine which performs a heating cycle in the winter season and a cooling cycle in the summer season in order to heat or cool, respectively, the carrier fluid of a hydronic plant (100). The machine (1) comprises a heat generator (8) for heating the solution composed of water and lithium bromide by means of a gas burner (9), the power of which can be modulated by a logic control unit (32) and which has a chamber (25) for mixing the gas with the air in a substantially stoichiometric quantity so as to form a comburent mixture to be conveyed under pressure by means of an impeller into a combustion chamber (15). The machine (1) comprises a water/fumes exchanger (18) which intercepts the fumes emitted from the burner (9) and has two water connections, i.e. a delivery connection (19) and a return connection (20), each with a three-way deviator valve (21, 22). The two three-way valves (21, 22) connect the exchanger (18) to the hydronic plant (100), when the machine (1) is operating with a heating cycle, and to the user installation (23), in particular for sanitary use, when the machine (1) is operating with a cooling cycle. The user installation (23) has a closed circuit with, connected along it, a pump (24) able to perform circulation of the water for as long as the temperature difference between the delivery and the return of the exchanger (18) is greater than a predefined value ΔT. The burner (9) is modulated by the control unit (32) also in relation to the temperature of the water output from the water/fumes exchanger (18), which represents the temperature of the fumes needed to maintain condensation thereof.
