Abstract: A protector (5) is provided on at least one side edge of the grid (2) of the battery plate, which grid (2) comprises an expanded metal of copper or copper alloy electroplated with lead or lead alloy. The protector (5) is fitted to the grid either by projecting portions of the grid being inserted into respective recesses formed in the protector or by the protector having plural projections. 
     This reduces risk of damage to the plating layer both generally, and when subsequently applying active material layer (3), so reduces dissolution of copper which otherwise would diminish effective operation of the battery.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for producing an optical fiber having formyl groups on a core surface. In one embodiment, a plastic optical fiber having formyl groups on a core surface is obtained by immersing the core surface of the plastic optical fiber in a treating solution containing at least a 0.5 to 40 mM alkali metal hydroxide and a compound having formyl groups in water or lower alcohol solvent. In the other embodiment, a plastic optical fiber having formyl groups on a core surface is obtained by introducing a vic-diol group, a primary hydroxyl group or an alkenyl group on the core surface, and then oxidizing it. Turbidity on the core surface of the optical fiber thus obtained is minimized, thereby reducing the transmittance losses of light.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device independent system and method of displaying text on a graphics display device (108, 128). The system provides programmed routines in a storage device (114) located on a controller card (108) for the graphics device (128). These routines are loaded into memory (116) by an operating system (118) during initialization of the operating system. Once loaded, the routines become an extension of the operating system (118) to provide the means for displaying information on the graphics device (128). Each type of graphics device (128) contains a storage device (114) that provides a set of access routines specifically programmed for the device (128). These routines have a standard interface across all devices, allowing displaying of textual information to be device independent. The storage device (114) contains multiple sets of routines, one for each processor type (102) capable of utilizing the graphics device (128), thus processor independence is achieved.

Abstract: A refrigeration system (10) associated with a conditioned space (14) to be controlled to a predetermined set point temperature (126) via heating and cooling cycles. The refrigeration system includes a fluid flow path (42) through which a predetermined liquid (104) is circulated. The fluid flow path includes a slush tank (78) and first and second heat exchangers (46,88), with cryogen from a supply vessel (16) being expanded into liquid (104) disposed in the slush tank. The first heat exchanger (46) is disposed to condition the air (122) of the conditioned space (14), and the second heat exchanger (88) is in heat exchange relation with heating apparatus (145). The first heat exchanger (46) and slush tank (78) are interconnected when the conditioned space requires a cooling cycle, and the first and second heat exchangers (46,88) are interconnected when the conditioned space requires a heating cycle. Cryogen from the supply vessel is thus not expended to heat the conditioned space, or for defrosting purposes.

Abstract: A rotating body (14) is mounted, such that its rotation position about a central axis (A) can be adjusted in a bearing hole (12) in a housing (10). The rotating body (14) has a recess (16) with a retaining axis (B) which is not the same as the central axis (A). An adjusting screw (22), which is mounted such that it can rotate but cannot be displaced, extends through the housing (10), transversely with respect to the bearing hole (12) and passing through said hole. The adjusting screw (22) is tangential to the rotating body (14) in such a manner that a tooth system (30) like a worm-drive tooth system is formed in the rotating body (14) when the adjusting screw (22) is rotated. In consequence, the rotational movement of the adjusting screw (22) can be transmitted via the tooth system (30) to the rotating body (14). The housing (10) furthermore has a connecting channel (32) which is aligned with the recess (16) in the rotating body (14) when said rotating body (14) is in a specific rotational angular position. The elongated object (34) can thus be pushed through the connecting channel (32) into the recess (16) and can subsequently be clamped firmly between the rotating body (14) and the housing (10) by rotation of said rotating body (14). <IMAGE>

Abstract: There is disclosed a driving device for piezoelectric actuator, in which a voltage is applied to a piezoelectric actuator to generate a mechanical deformation therein, thus actuating a mechanical system. In an aspect, the piezoelectric actuator is at first given a voltage of inverse polarity, for generating a displacement in an opposite direction, and then given a voltage of forward polarity, for generating a displacement in the normal functioning direction, thereby actuating the mechanical system. Displacement and acceleration become larger, as the displacement of the actuator takes place from a position in the inverse direction.
