Abstract: A laundry machine includes a drum (11) supported at at least two spaced apart support locations for rotation about a rotation axis (19). A set of sensors collectively provide: 
output from which the force component of the supporting force on parallel axes at the two spaced apart support locations can be derived, 
output from which the acceleration component of acceleration of the two spaced apart support locations on the parallel axescan be derived, 
output from which the angular velocity of said drum rotation axis about an axis through its centre of mass, perpendicular to its rotation axis and parallel to the force component axes can be derived, and 
output from which the mass of the rotating drum and/or laundry load, and the axial location (along the spin axis) of the centre of this mass, can be continuously derived. 
A balance correction system (80-85) is able to apply a variable amount of a balance correction mass at a selectable angular location of the drum at at least two spaced apart locations along the drum rotation axis (19). 
A controller (51) receives outputs of the sensors, and is programmed to continuously calculate balance corrections to apply, the calculation accounting for: 
a) the effect of acceleration of the force measurement locations on the measured forces, 
b) the effect conservation of angular momentum has on the measured forces due to angular velocity of the drum rotation axis about an axis through its centre of mass, perpendicular to its spin axis and parallel to the force sensor axis, and 
c) the effect the axial location of the centre of mass of the rotating drum/load has on the effects in a) and b).

IPC: H01M4/66

Abstract: When attempting to make a lithium ion-switching device such as a high-efficiency, all-solid state, thin film battery the choice of carrier substrate is all important. As such a substrate must withstand a high temperature under an oxidising atmosphere to crystallise certain layers making up the device, the substrate should not oxidise thereby ruling out most metals. The invention now describes a class of ternary alloys of which the oxidation rate is limited and that are useable to produce thin film batteries on. At least one element with a high affinity to oxygen (Al, Mg, Zn or Si) is present in the alloy. The other two metallic elements reduce the growth of the oxide of this first element. In addition the thus formed oxide scale turns out to be an effective barrier to lithium. Surprisingly, the scale shows nanoscopic voids that allow for sufficient electrical contact with the device layers, thereby eliminating the need for a separate current collector. As the ternary alloy can be made in a flexible foil, it can advantageously be used in a roll-to-roll process.
