IPC: A62B18/08
Filed: 1999-05-26
Abstract: Respiratory devices having first and second lines of demarcation bisected by a fold. The devices are capable of being folded in a first substantially flat configuration for storage (e.g., in a pocket) and are capable of being unfolded in a second ready-to-wear configuration so that a portion of the device covering the nose and the mouth is off-the-face. Processes for making such devices include folding a preform over a bisecting axis and cutting the preform at desired angles and sealing the cuts together to form the mask.

Title: Optical pulse source for long haul optical communication systems
Inventor: MAHGEREFTEH DANIEL
IPC: H04B10/06
Filed: 2002-03-12
Abstract: In accordance with the invention, a modulated RZ pulse source comprises a modulated light source optically coupled to a stabilized Bragg grating filter and one or more optical taps. The light source is preferably modulated in power and frequency and has an adjustable channel wavelength .lambda. The Bragg grating filter has a reflectivity bandwidth having a high slope reflectivity cutoff and is preferably tunable. A  feedback arrangement responsive to the taps keeps the source channel wavelength .lambda. on the edge of the reflectivity bandwidth for shaping RZ pulses. When the Bragg grating is stabilized, the feedback system maintains .lambda. at a value linked to the grating reflectivity edge and, by overlapping at least part of the optical spectrum of the source, converts the modulated source light into RZ pulses with high extinction ratio (>= 12 dB). The result is a high power, jitter-free RZ pulse source that is compact, inexpensive and power efficient.

Title: Integral joining
Inventor: AESCHLIMANN MARCEL
IPC: B23K35/02
Filed: 2000-06-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for integrally joining bodies (41, 50, 51, 65, 66) by thermally melting a joining element (1, 20, 30, 52, 67, 75, 80). The joint element (1, 20, 30, 52, 67, 75, 80) acts on and penetrates a surface (4, 40, 59) of one of the bodies (41, 50, 51, 65, 66) with a directed force (F). Once the surface has been penetrated, mechanical excitation is generated in such a way that the joint element continues to advance as a result of the directed force (F) and the melting is maintained with the mechanical excitement while the joint element (1, 20, 30, 52, 67, 75, 80) continues to penetrate the body (41, 50, 51, 65, 66). The melted material is hereby hydraulically forced into the bodies (41, 50, 51, 65, 66).

Abstract: A game to promote communication and understanding between couples. The game involves assigning points to a number of activities to be performed by one person, for example, the man, for the benefit of the second person, the woman. When the man performs an act such as letting the woman sleep in, taking the woman out to dinner, or giving the woman a gift, he is awarded the points assigned to that act. The accumulated points are tracked on a board. Once the points reach a certain level, the man is permitted to redeem the points for a reward such as a night out. The woman is permitted to block the awarding of points temporarily in the event of an extraordinary event such as the man forgetting the woman's birthday or not helping out with household chores.

Abstract: "In a household aid for the covering of food on a plate to protect from a splattering mess created from the heating of food in a mic-rowave oven. In this invention, an absorbent paper towel material is doubled and cut in a rounded shape to encase an average size plate. The rounded shape is, not only, to acquire the plate's shape but, also, to turn freely on the rotating table of a micro-wave. The doubled or two-sided paper towel is joined on three sides to form a gloved-like pocket to conveniently enclose a dish of food. This plate covering is convenient to use as it takes seconds to rip a piece from it's roll, slide a plate of food in it and then place in a microwave. The two-sided paper towel then holds secure to prevent heated food from splattering and messing the inside of a microwave oven.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de réduire les effets du mélange quatre ondes (FWM) dans un réseau de transmission optique. Les effets du mélange quatre ondes (FWM) sont réduits grâce à une modulation simultanée et périodique de la phase des signaux optiques se propageant dans un guide d'ondes à fibres longues, à une fréquence de modulation causant une interférence détruisant les produits FWM qui sont, sinon, générés sur la longueur du guide d'ondes à fibres longues. Ce procédé peut être mis en oeuvre dans un émetteur optique pour réseau de transmission optique à l'aide d'un modulateur de phase situé entre le multiplexeur et un suramplificateur optique, de manière à démoduler simultanément la phase de tous les signaux optiques transmis par le guide d'ondes à fibres longues. En variante, un modulateur de phase peut être disposé entre chaque source de signaux optiques modulés et le multiplexeur, de manière à moduler séparément la phase de tous les signaux optiques qui sont ensuite transmis par le guide d'ondes à fibres longues.

Abstract: Despite the disadvantage of reflexing a windshield, and consuming a multiple of the time taken with a single viscosity resin repair; it is generally accepted that most windshield repairs should utilize multiple viscosity resins. The multiple injection head not only eliminates the disadvantages associated with using resins of different viscosities, but additionally produces a smoother and stronger repair. The multiple injection head for injection of resins having different viscosities into a chip/ crack comprises: a) a plunger housing having two upright cylindrical openings therethrough, each opening having an upper internally threaded portion and a lower chamber portion; and, b) two generally cylindrical plungers each having an upper portion adapted to be hand turned, and an intermediate portion matingly threaded with the openings.      When the resins having different viscosities respectively fill the chamber portions, the plungers can be turned into the threaded portions of the openings controllably and selectively forcing the resins through the openings into a crack/ chip therebelow on the windshield.
