Title: Sensor apparatus for process measurement
Inventor: WARTMANN GERD
IPC: G01F23/28
Filed: 1996-12-05
Granted: 2000-08-15
Abstract: A sensor apparatus is provided for transmitting electrical pulses from a signal line into a vessel to measure a process parameter. In one embodiment the sensor apparatus includes a lower flange configured to be coupled to the vessel and an upper flange configured to be coupled to the lower flange.  Both lower and upper flanges are formed to include a central aperture defined by a tapered surface.  The apparatus also includes a conductive probe element including a head having first and second tapered surfaces and an elongated conductive portion extending away from the head.  The first tapered surface of the head is configured to engage the tapered surface of the lower flange to prevent movement of the probe element in a direction toward the lower flange. The tapered surface of the upper flange is configured to engage the second tapered surface of the probe element to prevent movement of the probe element in a direction toward the upper flange.  The apparatus still further includes an electrical connector coupled to the probe element.  Other embodiments include dielectric or metallic inserts and conductive pins coupled to the probe.  In some embodiments, the dielectric insert has a tapered section to prevent movement of the probe.  In some embodiments, the conductive pin has a tapered section to prevent movement of the probe.  In one embodiment a spring provides an upwardly directed biasing force.  In several embodiments the conductive pin or the connector includes an aperture and the other includes a pin which slidably engages the aperture to permit movement of the probe element while mounting electrical connection.
Patent CA-2194618-C (CA)
Title: Improved handover for a mobile communication system, network and mobile station
Inventor: KATO YASUHIRO
IPC: H04W36/08
Filed: 1997-01-08
Granted: 2001-07-24
Abstract: An object of the present invention is to reduce the control time required when a channel handover is performed in a mobile communication system. The conventional system has such shortcomings that a long time is required for re-designating a channel when a channel handover procedure results in failure. Particularly, in the common access type system, there is such a problem that since a channel handover is required to be performed several times during a channel handover procedure, an extra time is required for performing the handover procedure. The present invention has a plurality of base stations for covering the service area, and a mobile station for performing a communication with-the base stations through radio channels. Here, the present invention is characterized in that the base stations notify the mobile station of a plurality of candidates when the mobile station performs a handover procedure, thereby improving the problem inherent in the conventional system that a single candidate is notified when a channel handover procedure is performed. Therefore, the present invention makes it possible to change the channel to the next candidate channel at high speed when the previous channel handover procedure results in failure.

Abstract: Methods of sulfonating a polymer are provided. One method of sulfonating a polymer includes exposing sulfur dioxide and oxygen to free radical producing energy and contacting the polymer with the product of preceding step. Desirably the steps of exposing sulfur dioxide and oxygen to free radical producing energy and contacting the polymer with this product are performed in a reduced pressure environment. Another method of sulfonating a polymer includes contacting the polymer with sulfur dioxide and oxygen and exposing the contacted polymer to free radical producing energy. The polymer may be contacted with a mixture of sulfur dioxide and oxygen or the polymer may be separately contacted with sulfur dioxide and oxygen. When the polymer is separately contacted with sulfur dioxide and oxygen, the polymer may first be contacted with sulfur dioxide and then contacted with oxygen. The source of the free radical producing energy may be ultra-violet light, electron beam, noble gas radio frequency (rf) plasma, corona discharge, or gamma radiation.

Abstract: A positive lock rivet for joining a plurality of panels is composed of resilient plastic material and has a pin and a body having an axial bore. The pin has a head and a shank, the pin shank having a locking means, a break joint adjacent to the locking means and a break portion adjacent to the break joint and opposite the head. The body has a head and a shank. The body shank has a proximal end, a distal end, a collapsible portion and a noncollapsible portion. Integral with the proximal end of the body shank is a retention means and integral with the body shank between the collapsible portion and the body head is a flexible annular skirt positionable between the panels to be joined. The body shank is insertable into aligned holes in the panels. The pin is drawn into the body until the pin head engages the distal end of the body shank, causing collapse of the collapsible portion of the body shank and flexure of the annular skirt until the locking means engages the retention means, thereby tightly locking the rivet assembly. The break portion of the pin shank is then broken off at the break joint flush with the body head.

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un dispositif de fabrication de structures absorbantes dotées d'une couche de matière absorbante particulaire discrète qui est divisée en au moins deux bandes (9) séparées par une zone (11) ne contenant pratiquement pas de particules. Le procédé de fabrication de telles structures consiste à tout d'abord préparer une suspension particulaire de départ contenant un fluide à deux phases composé de particules de matière gélifiante et absorbante en suspension dans un gaz (tel que l'air) circulant dans un conduit d'admission. La suspension particulaire de départ est ensuite divisée en de multiples suspensions particulaires finales dans des conduits à ramifications multiples correspondantes, chacune des suspensions particulaires finales comportant un pourcentage donné de particules qui varie en fonction de la surface de section transversale du conduit d'admission. Les particules des suspensions particulaires finales sont réparties de façon sensiblement uniforme en ce qui concerne leur position transversale dans les ramifications. Finalement, on élimine les particules en suspension des suspensions particulaires finales en les piégeant sur un substrat du type couche tissée. Un dispositif conforme à la présente invention et conçu pour mettre en oeuvre le procédé ci-dessus comporte un conduit d'admission, un générateur de suspension particulaire en communication fluidique avec le conduit d'admission servant à produire une suspension particulaire de départ, au moins deux ramifications en communication fluidique avec le conduit d'admission et un diviseur de suspension particulaire disposé à l'intérieur du conduit d'admission dans le but de diviser la suspension particulaire de départ en de multiples suspensions particulaires finales dans les ramifications. Selon une forme de réalisation préférée, ledit dispositif comporte en outre un organe d'apport d'adhésif servant à enrober les particules dans les suspensions particulaires finales de façon à former des particules enrobées d'adhésif.
