Abstract: An electrocoagulation printing method comprises the steps of  (a) providing a positive electrolytically inert electrode having a continuous passivated surface moving   at   substantially   constant   speed   along   a predetermined path,  the passivated  surface  defining  a positive  electrode  active  surface;   (b) coating  the positive  electrode  active  surface  with  an  olefinic substance  and  silica  to  form  on  the  surface micro-droplets  of  olefinic  substance  containing the  silica; (c) forming  on  the  olefin  and  silica-coated  positive electrode active surface a plurality of dots of colored, coagulated colloid representative of a desired image, by electrocoagulation  of an  electrolytically  coagulable colloid present  in  an  electrocoagulation printing  ink comprising a liquid colloidal dispersion containing the electrolytically coagulable colloid, a dispersing medium, a  soluble  electrolyte  and  a  coloring  agent;   and (d) bringing a substrate into contact with the olefin and silica-coated positive electrode active surface to cause transfer of the dots of colored, coagulated colloid from the surface onto the substrate and thereby imprint the substrate with the image. The use in step (b) of silica prevents abrasion and pitting of the positive electrode, without substantially affecting passivation.  The use of silica  also  prevents  the  formation  of  undesirable background on the printed image in step (d).

Title: Self-adjusting sensor
Inventor: LASKOWSKI EDWARD L
IPC: G01B5/00
Filed: 1996-04-02
Granted: 2004-08-03
Abstract: A sensing device comprised of a sensing circuit (92) which changes its operating characteristics when an object comes near it. The sensing circuit (92) produces a change in output voltage proportional to the change in relative distance between the sensing circuit and an object. The actual output voltage is a functional of both target distance and control circuit input voltage. The control circuit (96) includes a comparator (102) for comparing the steady state output voltage to a reference voltage and adjustment system (104) for adjusting the input voltage to change the steady state output voltage such that the steady state output voltage approximately equals the reference voltage. The control circuit (96) reacts only to reductions in the steady state output voltage, indicative of mechanical wear, and not to increases in output voltage, indicative of currency thickness measurement.

Abstract: Selon un procédé permettant de fabriquer un corps tubulaire en résine synthétique, dont la partie tubulaire d'entrée et la partie tubulaire de sortie sont orientées différemment, on forme les deux moitiés du corps tubulaire dans une paire de moules, de façon que les moitiés butent l'une contre l'autre dans les moules, puis on remplit de résine fondue un passage interne formé à la périphérie des parties contiguës, de façon à réunir les moitiés. On utilise pour cela un moule pour moulage à injection de type rotatif, comportant une partie noyau associée à l'extrémité tubulaire de la partie tubulaire d'entrée ou de la partie tubulaire de sortie, de façon à pouvoir coulisser dans une direction autre que la direction d'ouverture et de fermeture des moules. On effectue les différents processus d'insertion du noyau, verrouillage du moule, injection, ouverture du moule, enlèvement du noyau, éjection et rotation du moule; on réalise un premier moulage pour mouler les deux moitiés, et un second moulage pour les réunir l'une à l'autre, de façon à obtenir un produit fini à chaque rotation des moules.

Title: System for communicating messages via a forward overhead control channel
Inventor: COMER EDWARD IRBY
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 1997-10-30
Granted: 2004-01-27
Abstract: A system for communicating multiple page messages or pages via a forward overhead control channel (FOCC) of a cellular network control channel to a cellular-compatible receiving device and combining the data obtained from each received page to form an aggregate message comprising a data sequence. A cellular communications device operating in a normal state responds to a page received via the FOCC by comparing the received page to one or more masks maintained in its memory. If the received page contains a predetermined characteristic and matches a corresponding mask maintained by the receiving device, then it responds by transitioning from a normal state to a receive device identifier state. In the receive device identifier state, the cellular communications device monitors the FOCC for a page having a special identifier assigned to that device. Each received page is compared to a mask corresponding to the special identifier and maintained in memory of the selected device. In response to a match, the cellular communications device transitions from the receive device identifier state to a receive data state and operates to monitor the FOCC for pages containing commands. In the receive data state, the cellular communications device can respond to pages containing commands by accepting data values for each reveived command page and combining the data values to form a data sequence.

The composite structures may be constructed of multiple layers of fibers and other materials placed on a fiber placement tool that includes a mandrel body (40) surrounded by a bladder or an integral bladder/caul sheet having expansion spaces created within the caul sheet section.  Uncured composite structures may be created by placing fibers around the fiber placement tool in a plurality of discontinuous segments that are capable of moving or sliding in relation to each other so that the uncured composite structure is expandable from within. Fluid openings may be provided in the outer surface of the mandrel body (40) for the application of vacuum and/or fluid pressure to secure the bladder to the mandrel body and to assist in the removal of the bladder from the mandrel body, respectively. Uncured composite structures may be sealed between the bladder and clam shell molds (30, 32). The uncured structures may be expanded against the inner surface of the molds by creating a vacuum between the bladder and molds.

Title: Temperature compensated power detector
Inventor: LEMAY NORMAND T JR
IPC: H03C1/06
Filed: 2000-02-17
Granted: 2002-12-31
Abstract: A temperature compensated power detector generally comprises a detector circuit portion, which includes a detector diode, and a temperature compensation circuit portion, which includes a temperature compensation diode, that is operably connected to the detector circuit portion. The detector diode and the temperature compensation diode are connected in DC series with each other and develop substantially identical voltage drops. The detector circuit portion operates to detect a voltage from a power input. However, the detected voltage is subject to alteration due to temperature variations. The temperature compensation circuit portion develops a voltage that is also subject to alteration due to temperature variations. The temperature altered voltage of the temperature compensation circuit portion is used to cancel out the temperature altered voltage of the detector circuit portion allowing the power detector to produce a true voltage output.
