Abstract: In this overspeed governor, an overspeed condition causes, by means of coupling elements (15,15'), a brake (5) comprised in the overspeed governor to engage a rope pulley (3) which, due to friction, brakes the rope driving the rope pulley itself and thus triggers the safety gear of the elevator. In the invention, the rotation of at least one coupling element (15,15') provided in the overspeed governor and rotating with it is braked by a frictional force which is applied to a braking point (31,32) on the coupling element (15,15'). The combined effect of the braking action and the rotation of the overspeed governor turns the coupling element (15,15') into a position in which the brake (5) is activated so as to engage the rope pulley (3). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A back end of the line dry etch method is disclosed. Etching of a mask oxide and temporary (sacrificial) silicon mandrel occurs following the formation of gate stacks and tungsten studs. The mask oxide is etched selectively to tungsten and silicon through the use of a polymerizing oxide etch. The silicon is etched selectively to both silicon nitride, silicon oxide, and tungsten. The process removes the silicon mandrel and associated silicon residual stringers by removing backside helium cooling, while using HBr as the single species etchant, and by adjusting the duration, the pressure, and the electrode gaps during the silicon etch process. The silicon may be undoped polysilicon, doped polysilicon, or single crystal silicon. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an arrangement in a drive unit (2) for an ultrasound sealing unit (1). The drive unit is of the type which consists of a number of piezoelectric ceramic plates (3) with interjacent, conductive metal sheets (4), connected to an a.c. source. The drive unit (2) further consists of a counterweight (5) and a clamping screw (6). The clamping screw (6) holds together under a certain pretensioning the ceramic plates (3), the metal sheets (4), and the counterweight (5). Moreover, the clamping screw fixedly secures the drive unit (2) in the sealing unit (1). The sealing unit (1) comprises a homogeneous body (13), consisting of reaction bodies (7) which surround the drive unit, a nodal plane (10) with an anchorage edge (11), and a horn (8) with an elongate, narrow sealing surface (9). The arrangement according to the present invention consists of a gasket (12) so disposed that it constitutes a spacer (H) between the body (13) of the sealing unit (1) and the ceramic plates (3). The gasket (12) permits the oscillation of the ultrasound sealing unit (1), but prevents residual flexural stresses from reaching the drive unit (2). The spacing dimension (H) of the gasket (12) may be selected so as to govern the amplitude of the sealing unit (1) to a predetermined, preselected amplitude. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A mobile rest equipment for automatic production lines, hereinafter referred to as pallet, comprising a base (1) on which a fastening bar (5) is mounted on which support arms are engaged for a workpiece (16). The arms (13) allow a movement on a transversal plane with respect to the axis of fastening bar (5) between a first and a second position, in particular a rotation movement. In the first position, the arms are able to either translate along the fastening bar or be moved away from it in a transversal direction, in the second position the support arms auto-lock onto the fastening bar through resilient means (21). The pallet has therefore variable distance support arms which are able to auto-lock onto the fastening bar and are easy to be unclamped by it without requiring neither separate locking/unlocking devices, nor, consequently, adjustment means able to interact with said devices. The pallet can be adjusted with no modifications to operate both on a line with a station of automatic adjustment and on a line with a station of manual adjustment. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the manufacture of a structural member comprising a thermoplastic composite core with an exterior reinforcing layer, the core member is initially extruded in the shape of a profile (7). The profile is then contacted with reinforcing fiber (13) and resin to form the exterior reinforcing layer. The exterior thermosetting layer is cured to form a reinforcing layer. The structural member is preferably manufactured using a pultrusion method in which a tractor device (8) is used to provide linear movement of the profile from the extrusion head to the exterior coating operation. The fiber-reinforced thermoset is coated on the entirety of the exterior of the profile or is applied only on a portion of the profile requiring reinforcement in a defined load-bearing direction. The preferred thermoplastic core comprises a polymer-fiber composite material. Such a structural member has significantly improved Young's modulus providing strength for applications such as telephone poles, electric poles, electric lighting poles, boat mast or keel applications, lumber replacements, structural members used in window and door manufacture, etc.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and arrangement for preserving the cavities in workpieces using a molten material, for example wax, and is particularly suitable for preserving cavities in vehicle bodywork. The object of the invention is to develop the method and arrangement such that simpler servicing conditions, lower maintenance costs, reduced susceptibility to failure and adaptability to different workpiece sizes and shapes are possible. The novel features of the method and arrangement according to the invention are that a working chamber/immersion area (4) has a predeterminable operating temperature; the workpiece (W) is delivered to the working chamber in a correspondingly pre-tempered state; and at least some of the components guiding the preserving means are heated by the heating system for the working chamber (4). In a further development of the invention, an immersion frame (10), which holds the workpieces to be immersed, consists at least partially of standardized profiled structural sections and can thus be adapted over rapidly and in a variable manner.
