Title: Method of manufacturing silica glass from sol-gel
Inventor: OH JEONG-HYUN
IPC: C03C3/06
Filed: 1998-07-28
Abstract: A method for manufacturing silica glass articles (e.g. optical fibre preforms) from a silica sol-gel consisting of a number of steps. Firstly a silica sol-gel is formed from silica, a dispersant and a solution containing a monomer for an acrylic resin (e.g. acryl amide or methacryl amide) with a cross linking agent (e.g. N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide). Air bubbles are then removed and the gel is aged before a polymerisation initiator (e.g. ammonium persulphate) and a catalyst (e.g. N,N,N',N'-tetramethylenediamine) are added, and the pH of the reaction mixture is adjusted. The gel is then poured into a mould, and is set and aged again. This is followed by demoulding and drying. The article is then thermally treated to remove organics and a hydroxy group elimination reaction is performed on it before final sintering. An article with reduced cracking and shrinkage is produced.

Inventor: HUANG GEAR
IPC: H01H13/705
Filed: 1998-08-28
Abstract: The switch includes a rubber cone 6 supported on a membrane circuit board 7 inside a keyboard, a key base 5 over the rubber cone to hold a vertically slidably key cap 2, a spring holder cap 4 vertically slidably coupled to the key cap inside the key base to hold a spring 3 between it and the spring holder cap, the key cap having two inner hooks 210 respectively extended from two opposite sides of a bottom coupling frame thereof for engagement with outward hooks raised from the topmost edge of the spring holder cap 4 at two opposite sides. Upon downward pressing of the cap 2, the spring is initially compressed until it overcomes the resistance of the rubber cone 6 which is then compressed to trigger a contact at the membrane circuit board, the spring suddenly extending out to produce a click sound. The cap 2 has two further opposite locks engageable with formations on the key base 5.

Title: Vehicle theft prevention system
Inventor: SNOOK WARREN
IPC: B60R25/043
Filed: 1999-08-12
Abstract: A vehicle theft prevention system is disclosed comprising a detector which alerts the system to a change in driver of the vehicle and which is connected within the existing electrical system of the vehicle. The system also comprises a reset switch which must be pressed within a predetermined time period after a new driver enters the vehicle and assumes the driving position to disarm the system. Failure to disarm the system results in the gradual diminution of power to the engine of the vehicle after said vehicle is driven away, preferably by reducing the electrical current supplied to or voltage applied to the electrical fuel pump of the vehicle. The system is ideally hard-wired into the existing electrical system of the vehicle, and optionally the electrical circuits of the vehicle which supply power to the horn and/or external indicator lights or brake lights. In this manner, as the vehicle slows as its power is diminished, an audible and/or visible alarm signal can be provided to draw attention to the possibility that the vehicle is being stolen.

Title: Picking and transporting means for fabric sections and the like
IPC: B65H3/24
Filed: 1975-03-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for separating a single ply of limp material, such as fabric from a stack of such plies, and transporting the separated ply to a predetermined destination. The apparatus includes a rotatable ply gripping wheel, cooperating with a ply holding shoe. By rotating the wheel in contact with the ply, while restraining an adjacent area, the ply is buckled into a wave, nipped and then picked off of the stack. The gripping wheel and pressing shoe maintain a predetermined geometric relation, while being capable of independent yieldable contact with an uneven ply stack. The gripping wheel and holding shoe are operable in conjunction with an insertable flat plate, which is effective to progressively free the remainder of the ply. Thereafter, the flat plate is utilized to transport the freed ply to a desired destination, while the picking unit independently returns to the ply stack to commence its engagement with the next subsequent ply. Laterally movable sweep arms are provided as moving positioning abutments to secure the desired orientation of the ply at its destination.
