Patent EP-0433070-A2 (EP)
Inventor: PELLERITE MARK J C O MINNESOTA
IPC: C09J7/02
Filed: 1990-12-13
Abstract: This invention relates to release liners, and more particularly, to release liners suitable for use with highly aggressive pressure-sensitive adhesives. Certain pressure-sensitive adhesives, particularly those derived from silicone resins, are so aggressive that tapes employing them exhibit undesirably high peel forces upon removal from known low-adhesion coatings, especially after prolonged storage or when used in a high-temperature environment. The adhesive of such tapes may carry away, and consequently, be contaminated by appreciable amounts of the low-adhesion material. If this occurs, the tapes will exhibit poor readhesion when applied to "end-use" receptor surfaces. This invention provides curable, crosslinkable compositions and coatings prepared therefrom that can be used to form low-surface energy liners that can be used with aggressive pressure-sensitive adhesives, such as adhesives formed from silicone resins. The release characteristics of these coatings do not diminish upon aging and do not adversely affect the readhesion properties of adhesives that have come in contact with the coatings. The invention further provides substrates bearing a layer of the composition of the invention. These coated substrates are particularly suitable for release liners, especially differential release liners and low-adhesion backsizes for pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes and sheet materials, especially for pressure-sensitive adhesives derived from silicone resins. Because the coatings of this invention can have more than 50% by weight inert oils without significantly reducing the readhesion of adhesives removed from them, they provide an economic advantage over those coatings prepared by using only the more expensive reactive group-containing polyfluoropolyethers.

Abstract: The positions of print wheels (42) are controlled by the positions of axially displaceable racks (52) which in turn are controlled by a helical nut (62) and pinion (58) system which is driven by motor. In order to compensate for the angle between the helical thread of the drive gear (62) and the teeth of the driven rack (52), the drive gear (62) and the rack (52) engage the pinion (58) at diametrically opposed positions and the axis of rotation of the pinion (58) is skewed relative to the teeth of the rack (52) by half the angle and the teeth themselves are also skewed relative to the axis of the pinion (58) by half the angle. This has the effect that the teeth of the pinion (58) are parallel at one side to the helical thread and are also parallel at the opposite side to the teeth of the rack (52). The drive system may be used in a postage meter for adjusting the print value wheels.

Abstract: A master-slave multiprocessor system for control and diagnostic devices in a motor vehicle is described. For separate or optionally simultaneous overlapping processing of various programmes the multiprocessor system only uses one ROM Element which can be easily exchanged or a RAM Element, the content of which can be newly loaded or overwritten via an interface. The resultant system structure also allows the optional use of at least one slave processor for arbitrarily different or interchangeable tasks in that its storage area can be modified or overwritten in fast access from a master processor as determined by the RAM or ROM content. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is the anti-skid brake system for the automotive vehicle, which is arranged to increase or decrease the braking oil pressure periodically on the basis of a comparison between the wheel speed and the assumed vehicle body speed. When the state in which the wheel is incipient to lock before the wheel speed is returned to the assumed vehicle body speed, the braking oil pressure is inhibited from being increased, thereby preventing the assumed vehicle body speed from deviating too remote from the actual vehicle body speed. This anti-skid brake system can prevent the wheel from being locked due to having the assumed vehicle body speed set to a too low value relative to the actual wheel speed.

Abstract: 2.1 In a CD player, the light beam (L) scanning the data of the CD is guided along the data tracks of the CD by means of a track control circuit, which is made up of a coarse drive (M, SP) and a fine drive (S). Because the control range of the fine drive (S) is relatively small, the coarse drive (M, SP) corrects an optical scanning device (AV) in such a way that the control range of the fine drive (S) remains symmetrical. If, however, the mechanical centre position of the objective lens (O), which is fixed by means of springs and/or damping elements, does not coincide with the optical centre position, the fine drive (S) operates unsymmetrically. 2.2 In order to ensure at all times a symmetrical control range of the fine drive (S) irrespective of the mechanical centre position adopted by the objective lens (O), a signal (GS), which is proportional to the deviation of the optical axis of the objective lens (O) from the optical axis of the optical scanning device (AV), serves as control signal for the coarse drive (M, SP). The distance between the two optical axes can be sensed, for example, by means of a four-quadrant photodetector. A major advantage is that mechanical means are no longer required in order to fix the objective lens (O) in a mechanical centre position. 2.3 CD players, video disc players, DRAW disc players and magneto-optical equipment. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tool which contains a pulsed accelerator neutron source and means for making timing measurements of the thermal neutron response in a localized portion of the environment immediately surrounding the borehole. Formation sigma is determined by paramaterizing the detected thermal neutron decay curve, preferably with a diffusion model similar to that known in the art for determining formation sigma on the basis of gamma ray time distributions. In a more comprehensive embodiment of the present invention, which includes a gamma detector in the tool, formation sigma can be measured in parallel using both gamma ray and thermal neutron decay characteristics. Deviations between the neutron and gamma-based signals that occur as the tool traverses the borehole, provide useful indications of local effects immediately surrounding the borehole.
