Abstract: A fiber optic gyroscope includes a sensing coil formed of ordinary single mode fiber and a module including polarization maintaining optical fibers. A clockwise beam guided by a polarization maintaining fiber passes through a polarizer before being input to the sensing coil. The polarization module includes means for providing an an unpolarized counterclockwise beam to the sensing coil and means for phase modulating a predetermined polarization component. The module also depolarizes the clockwise beam after it has traversed the sensing coil. The clockwise and counterclockwise waves are both unpolarized when they combine in an optical coupler before impinging upon a detector that produces an electrical signal indicative of changes in the interference pattern to indicate rotation of the coil.

Patent EP-0290988-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SOBEK ANDREW A
IPC: A01N25/10
Filed: 1988-05-07
Abstract: Various chemolithotrophic bacteria such as  Thiobacillus ferrooxidans  by direct or indirect mechanisms catalyze the oxidation of metal sulfides and produce acid, i.e. suilfuric acid and soluble metal salts at a much faster rate than chemical oxidation. Elimination of such bacteria would inhibit the formation of the acid. The natural production of such acids is particularly troublesome in mines e.g. coal mines, since acid water is produced which is damaging to the environment. An effective method of abating or eliminating such acid water production is to apply a bactericide such as a biodegradable organic surfactant which at low pH values are bactericides and hence inhibit the bacteria from catalyzing the metal sulfides. The affected acid water site can thus be treated with the surfactant which provides a temporary or short term result usually for a few months. A long term solution, that is 1 year to several years, is provided through the use of a slow release composition of the present invention in which a heterogeneous matrix contains a thermoplastic domain and an organic surfactant domain. A suitable porosity is created when proper amounts of surfactant are utilized so that a long term slow release composition is formed. A method of making the heterogeneous matrix or slow release composition involves the dry blending of a thermoplastic compound and various processing aids, subsequently adding a bactericide thereto and mixing under shear and heat the resulting molten composition. A suitable slow release article can be formed such as pellets.

Abstract: In a printer head comprising a print element (12) and a protecting member (32) which is for protecting a printing end (24) of the print element, the protecting member is movable in a predetermined direction to place a free end (34) thereof at a first and a second position. The printing end is movable between a rest position and an activated or printing position in a first sense of the predetermined direction. When placed in the first position, the free end is substantially flush with the printing end put in the rest position so that the protecting member effectively protects the printing end. When the protecting member is moved in a second sense opposite to the first sense, the free end is retracted from the first position in the second sense to be placed at the second position so that the printing end can be readily machined without being obstructed by the protecting member. Preferably, the protecting member is rendered integral with a holding member (26) for holding the print element so that the printing end is movable between the rest position and the activated position.
