Abstract: The circuit traces of a circuit board extend to and usually outward from a side surface of the board for direct connection to contacts of a mating connector, circuit board or device. The contact portions of the traces are the end surfaces of the traces which in one embodiment extend outward of the plane of the associated side surface of the circuit board. The contact portion may be of greater cross-sectional area than that of the associated trace to provide a contact area of intended size. The contact portion of a trace may be plated with gold or other appropriate conductive material to enhance conductivity and prevent or minimize oxidation or corrosion. Interconnection to the contact portions of the traces is provided by mating contacts which respectively engage the contact and surfaces of the traces. Preferably, the mating contacts are resilient conductive columns or elements which are maintained in engagement with the contact ends by suitable hardware. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A endoscopic multiple sample biopsy forceps is disclosed having a jaw assembly with a pair of jaws connected to a pair of arms extending from a jaw housing. Each jaw has two shanks oppositely displaced from the longitudinal axis of the device to define a space in the rear of the jaw for storing collected tissue samples. The tissue storage space defined by the jaw shanks opens rearwardly into a tissue storage area defined within the housing. Each shank has a broad outwardly facing planar surface aligned with an inwardly facing planar surface on one of the pair of arms. A cam slot on each jaw shank is slidably engaged by a cam pin on one of the pair of arms. A puller member coaxially positioned in the housing and axially movable relative to the housing supports a pair of pivots, each of which pivotally engages a bore on at least one jaw shank. The puller member is attached to a drive wire coaxially positioned in a tubular shaft. Axial movement of the drive wire actuates the puller member. In response to axial movement of the puller along the longitudinal axis of the outer tube, the cam pins riding in the cam guide slots change the position relative to the fixed jaw pivot axis of the jaw, thus actuating the jaws. None of the jaw assembly elements movable relative to the device, except the jaws, are externally exposed such that they could contact targeted tissue and negatively affect tissue sampling operations. An ejector is provided to push collected samples from the tissue sample storage area.

Abstract: To process the layout of graphical objects, elastics data structures are established for the graphical objects to define minimum and preferred sizes, stretch properties and compression properties. Composite graphical objects include elastics properties computed from their components through add and max operations which are dependent on relative elasticities of the components. The positions of origins within graphical objects are defined by pairs of elastics in each of two dimensions. One application of elastics is with respect to text blocks where preferred width and compressibility of each text block is a function of the amount of text in the text block. The elastics and dimensions of graphical objects are processed in a three pass layout negotiation. In the first pass, preferred sizes and elasticities of the graphical objects are computed along a first dimension. In a second pass, size values of the graphical objects along the first dimension are computed from the preferred sizes and elasticities, and preferred sizes and elasticities of the graphical objects along a second dimension are computed based on the size values of the graphical objects along the first dimension. In a final pass, size values of the graphical objects along the second dimension are computed from the preferred sizes and elasticities.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the optimal use of reaction heat resulting from the production of 1,2-dichloroethane from ethene and chlorine. The aim of the invention is achieved by extracting reaction heat liberated during the reaction of chlorine with ethene and the reaction heat contained in 1,2-dichloroethane. Extraction of said reaction heat from the reaction chamber occurs using at least one part of gaseous 1,2-dichloroethane (latent heat) and at least one part of liquid 1,2-dichloroethane (feelable heat) removed from the reaction chamber. Said reaction heat is used to heat two fractioning columns in order to purify 1,2-dichloroethane of impurities having a boiling point higher than 1,2-dichloroethane.

Abstract: Thermoforming plastic film to produce containers with a hollow base and a double walled foot, involves turning the base inwards to form a foot and ejecting by pushing the foot over a compression edge. A plastic film section (3) is clamped between upper and lower (11) tool halves and a container formed by pressure difference. The container base (46) is then turned inwards by a sealing edge (35) which presses the base against a compression edge (31) of a film cutting punch (22) to form a foot (30). When the sealing edge is retracted a free space (B) remains between the inner face of the foot and outer face of the tool base (33). The container is then ejected from the lower part of the tool by pushing the foot over the compression edge. An Independent claim is made for a tool for thermoforming containers in plastic film which comprises an upper part (10) with compressed air feed; a lower part (11) with a cutting punch (22) having an annular compression edge; a moving tool base (33) and a sealing edge (35) which surrounds the compression edge and acts in conjunction with it; a drive unit (51) for actuating sealing edge movement.
