Abstract: A method of immobilizing a chemical specie in a three-dimensional, crosslinked matrix. The method involves bringing together in covalent bonding proximity a desired chemical specie and a polymeric coupling compound having at least two latent reactive groups per molecule, each latent reactive group being capable when activated of covatently bonding to another coupling compound molecule or to the chemical specie. The chemical specie desirably is free of latent reactive groups that are activated upon activation of the latent reactive groups are simultaneously activated to cause formation via covalent bonding of a three-dimensional molecular network in which molecules of the chemical specie are covalently bonded to molecules of the coupling compound and molecules of the coupling compound are covalently bonded to each other. Preferably, the three-dimensional matrix is formed as a coating upon a surface to which covalent bonds are formed upon activation of the latent reactive groups of the coupling compound.

Abstract: APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COATING AN          ELECTROMAGNETIC COIL            Abstract of the Disclosure There is disclosed a method and apparatus for coating an electromagnetic coil, particularly stator coils for an electric motor, with an insulating catalyzed resin material. The catalyzed resin material is a two component material comprising an epoxy resin and a catalyst. The catalyzed resin material is a free flowing liquid at a first temperature and begins to cure rapidly at a second elevated temperature. The stator coils are first heated by supplying current to the stator coils to raise the temperature of the stator coils to the first temperature. The free flowing liquid catalyzed resin material is dispensed through nozzles onto the stator coils as the stator coils and the nozzles move relative to each other. After the liquid catalyzed resin material has been dispensed in a predetermined amount, at predetermined locations, for predetermined times, the catalyzed resin material is allowed to penetrate the stator coils. The temperature of the stator coils is then raised to the second temperature at which the curing of the catalyzed resin material occurs rapidly. As the curing continues, heat is produced by the curing process, and the current to the stator coils is shut off at a predetermined temperature.

Abstract: When background noise is superposed on speech, a speech decoder can well represent the background noise through signal processing only in the speech decoder even at low bit rates.  In the speech decoder, a decoding circuit receives a signal from a speech coder, a speech detecting circuit detects non-speech and speech intervals, and a excitation signal calculating circuit calculates a excitation signal using a sound source signal, a pitch period, and an average amplitude.  A signal reproducing circuit drives a filter composed of a spectrum parameter to reproduce a sound signal.  A searching circuit stores a set of random number code vectors of a predetermined bit number as a code book, and searches the code book for a best random number code vector which is selected.  A second signal reproducing circuit reproduces a sound signal (noise) using the selected random number code vector.
