Abstract: Ces besoins, parmi dautres, sont satisfaits par au moins un mode de réalisation de linvention décrite qui prévoit un écran tactile pour un dispositif électronique dans lequel se trouve un motif peu dense de capteurs disposés dans la zone active et un motif dense de capteurs disposés dans la zone daffichage. Dans cette configuration, les pixels dans la zone active peuvent avoir un rapport de forme supérieur et offrir une image plus agréable, alors que les capteurs denses disposés dans la zone daffichage offrent une sensibilité au toucher plus précise. En outre, le logiciel ou dautres dispositifs électroniques utilisés pour créer limage peuvent être structurés pour positionner des menus ou dautres images sélectionnables à proximité de la zone daffichage. De même, certaines images, comme des icônes, peuvent être programmées pour être affichées directement sous les capteurs dans la zone active. En général, cette configuration offre le meilleur des deux mondes, soit une image lumineuse et claire avec une certaine sensibilité au toucher dans la zone active et une grille de capteurs sensibles dans la zone daffichage où il ny a pas de pixels.

Title: Enclosure system for a direct methanol fuel cell
Inventor: WEST ROBERT D
IPC: H01M8/06
Filed: 2008-10-16
Abstract: The invention provides an improved method of injecting chemicals into pipelines or facilities that transport or process oil and natural gas at remote sites.  Electric power is generated from stored liquid methanol, using a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) alone, or else a hybrid system using both DMFC and photovoltaic (PV) solar panel in combination. This electric power is then used to operate an electric pump to inject chemicals into the high-pressure pipeline at a specific controlled rate. This pump may be an electromagnetic linearly reciprocating solenoid type design, in order to consume less power than traditional rotary electric motor pumps. Surplus electric power produced may also be used for other local equipment, unrelated to the pump. This complete system results in far less operating expense and greenhouse gas emissions than the commonly used pneumatic pumps it replaces, and more reliable year-round operation compared to solar only.
