Title: Method and device for biochemical sensing
Inventor: HOLM-KENNEDY JAMES W
IPC: G01N27/414
Filed: 1992-10-20
Granted: 1996-07-10
Abstract: A method and application for detecting and measuring the presence of a binding target material (64) employs a semiconductor device (50) having a receptor-covered surface topgate (90), separated by a dielectric layer (58) from a substrate 56. Receptors 66 attached to this surface exhibit a chemical selectivity function. Binding occurs in a test solution (52) with charge associated with the target material (64) modulating at least one device characteristic. According to the present invention, measurement may occur under dry conditions, at a time and location different from when binding occurred, thus substantially eliminating problems associated with ionic shielding and reference electrodes, so prevalent with prior art wet measurement techniques. The device (50) includes backgate (62) to which a bias may be applied to restore the device's pre-binding characteristics which enhances the sensitivity of the device. Measurement of the restorative backgate bias provides a signal indicating binding of the desired target material. <IMAGE>

Title: Torsional vibration dampers
Inventor: YOUNG ALASTAIR JOHN
IPC: F16F15/14
Filed: 1998-03-27
Granted: 2001-09-26
Abstract: A torsional vibration damper, which may be in the form of a twin mass flywheel, and which has an input member (11) designed to rotate generally in a first plane (A1), an output member (12) designed to rotate generally in a second plane (A2), relative rotation of the input and output members being possible against the action of a link-type damper (40). The damper is arranged to allow the first and second planes in which the input and output members rotate to tilt relative to each other during use of the damper to relieve internal stresses. This ability to tilt may be provided by self-aligning main bearings (50) or by the use of self-aligning pivot bearings (65) in the link-type damper.

Title: Textured pattern on one surface of thermoplastic film - by expanding plasticised material into depressions of embossed foil
IPC: B29D/
Filed: 1977-06-13
Granted: 1985-05-21
Abstract: A synthetic film, consisting pref. of thermoplastic material, is heated to its plasticising point and fed through a calender having two smooth surfaced bowls. Simultaneously, pref. metal foil, which has been previously given an embossed patterned surface, is fed through the hot film. The relief pattern is brought into contact with the hot film and the two are highly pressed together. The hot film is thus able to fill the cavities of the relief patterned foil completely, whilst the heat is being dissipated, and the thermoplastic film is given a textured surface. The previously embossed band of material may consist of a film of thermosetting resin which has been given a thin metal layer. In the process, a thermoplastic resin may be melted to a fluid with a uniform viscosity and extruded through a broad slot nozzle as a thermoplastic film in the plasticised condition, and textured directly. The calender has two internally cooled rollers. The one coming into contact with the embossed band is surfaced with rubber, whilst the other cover which the plasticised film moves has a polished metal surface. The process applies the textured pattern to one surface only so that the film can be used for coating purposes more sucessfully. Temp. and pressures used cannot damage the thin pressing plate of Al foil or synthetic material, and the relief is applied by using the heat of the extruded material.

Abstract: Casing for an electric accumulator has a rectangular box form with shaped corners to the edges and base of the profile which stand proud of the main plane of each wall and the base. The raised borders are linked to the flat walls by a concave profile of radius at least as great as the height of the border. The ratio of the height of each border of its width lies in the range 0.05-0.3. The profile also features a rib across the underside of the base, the rib not being deeper than the border ribs around the base, and another rib or flange across the top of the casing through but not taller than integral terminal bosses. Used esp. for casings for alkaline accumulators, to provide adequate strength and stiffness for casings of constant wall thickness made by extrusion blow moulding compared with a casing of similar wall thickness without peripheral rib forms, the modified casings exhibited "much less" deformation in a top loading test, and withstand a 60 Hz vibration test at 1g acceleration 10 degree offset from the vertical axis without splitting along the edges.
