Abstract: The present invention is directed to a compound bore nozzle plate for a thermal ink jet printhead and is manufactured by electroforming nickel (30) onto a nickel sub­strate which has been masked by a plurality of mask segments of predefined geometry. This geometry consists of a plurality of base segments upon which have been formed a corresponding plurality of post segments of greater vertical dimension and smaller lateral dimension than the base seg­ments. This mask geometry enables greater center-to-center orifice spacing to be achieved without unacceptably reducing the thickness and structural integrity of the nozzle plate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fuel control apparatus in an internal combustion engine. When the running mode the engine is changed into acceleration again from decelera­tion after acceleration, the fuel becomes too rich if the conventional continuous correcting factor (k CNT  = 1.0) is used. In order to properly reduce the quantity of fuel supply in that case, the number of engine revolutions is counted from a point (a) of initiation of deceleration to a point (b) of initiation of acceleration again to there­by calculate a proper value of the continuous correcting factor (k CNT ) corresponding to the count (CNT max ), so that fuel is supplied to the internal combustion engine (E) with a quantity corrected by the thus calculated value of the continuous correcting factor (k CNT ).

Abstract: Apparatus for the seriatim separation and feeding of garment parts from a shingled stack of the parts to a predetermined destination. Comprising the apparatus is a picker head containing a depending array of needles adapted to positively engage the leading edge of the uppermost part on the stack. The picker head is supported for arcuate motion in the course of effecting separation of the engaged first part, and is arcuately displaced at a high rate of acceleration to aid in overcoming the resistance to separation between the first and second parts in the stack. Following separation, the separated part is transferred to a second location at which the head is withdrawn from the transferred part. Operable concomitantly with part separation by the picker head is a hold down clamp for applying a predetermined downward force on the remaining stacked parts while a vacuum force is being applied from underneath for retarding this displacement in the course of the engaged part being separated.

Abstract: A lamp unit (A) for use in an electrophotographic copying apparatus, moves under an original on the original support. The lamp unit (A) is formed with a slit (2) through which the light from the lamp (1) is shed on to the original and reflected by it on to a photo-sensitive object to form an image thereon. The slit (2) is the narrowest at its center and gradually widens toward its both ends. Also, the lamp unit (A) is accelerated until it reaches the center of the original support and is decelerated thereafter. This assures a uniform distribution of light over the surface of a photosensitive object.

Abstract: A projectile having a downstream extending sur­face of revolution (306) which terminates as a blunt base (304) has a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart U-shaped, downstream extending troughs in its sur­face. Each trough is essentially aligned with the di­rection of the bulk fluid flow adjacent the surface (306) in the vicinity of the trough, and intersects the blunt. base (304) to form a trough outlet therein. The troughs are appropriately spaced apart, sized and configured to flow full over their entire length and to cause fluid to flow into the space immediately behind the blunt base (304), thereby reducing base drag on the projectile.

Abstract: To reduce heat strains between the shell pipe and the wound metal carrier body of an exhaust gas catalyst, whose temperatures widely differ in operation, it is known to provide the annular compound of metal strips fixed in a shell pipe with slots running in the longitudinal direction. This type of fabrication is expensive. 
<??>With the novel process, it is proposed to make the incisions already before the winding or folding of the carrier body directly in the metal strips, so that further treatment is no longer necessary. Carrier bodies fabricated in this way have a multiplicity of incisions which extend within the annular compound and can likewise suppress the build-up of thermal stresses. 
<??>The new carrier bodies are used for exhaust gas catalysts in motor vehicles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a laminated tamper-evident structure which exhibits an irreversible colour change upon delamination. The structure includes a laminate of at least two layers (10,12) capable of generating a colour by a light interference and absorption phenomenon that requires direct and intimate contact between an adjacent two of the layers. The strength of attachment among the layers of the laminate is such that the laminate can be uniformly and reliably peeled apart at the interface between the adjacent two layers. An overlying flexible strip (14) of transparent or translucent material is adhered to the laminate to facilitate the peeling operation. Upon peeling apart the laminate, the generated colour is irreversibly lost, thus providing evidence that the structure has been tampered with. The structure can be incorporated into a variety of closable articles or products to provide evidence of opening or tampering.

Abstract: A method for treating porous polytetrafluoroethylene and other types of synthetic materials having low surface tension to render the material suitable for use in bonding to living tissue. The synthetic material is enveloped with a liquid of sufficiently low surface tension to permit the liquid to enter the pores of the material. The liquid has a sufficiently low gas content to enable the liquid to absorb or displace essentially all gas nuclei held in the pores of the material as the liquid fills essentially all pores. After the low surface tension liquid has permeated all pores of the porous material, such liquid is replaced with a solution compatible with the body fluid and in which proteins have a low solubility to render the material suitable for implant. When such material is placed in contact with exposed tissue, an immediate bond is formed which permits implanting the material without the need of sutures to hold the material in place.
