Abstract: In the manufacture of plastics bags using reclosable zipper strip (10, 14) with engageable male and female profiles (12, 16), a butt splicing operation is used to speed up the changeover from one reel of zipper strip to another. The trailing end of one strip and the leading end of the next strip are brought together in abutting relationship within a splicing unit, sealing material (22) is overlaid on the end zones of opposite sides of the strips, and this is sealed to the underlying zipper strips, preferably using heat and pressure. The flanges (18) of the zipper strips are held apart by separator plates (20) during the sealing operation.

Abstract: A lithographic device is provided whose accuracy is affected as little as possible during the supply of gas from the gas supply to the pressure chambers of the supports devices used in the lithographic device. The gas supply is connected to an intermediate space connected to the pressure chamber (75) via a pneumatic restriction while the support device controls a gas pressure in the space. The support device prevents the transmission of pressure fluctuations present in the gas supply to the pressure chamber as much as possible.

IPC: G01N22/00

Abstract: An apparatus and method for the nondestructive inspection of dielectric matierals are disclosed. Monochromatic, phase coherent electromagnetic radiation (6), preferably in the 5-50 gigahertz frequency range (i.e. microwaves) impinges on the sample. In accordance with Snell's law, the microwaves are partly transmitted and partly reflected at each interface where the dielectric constant changes due to irregularities. A portion of the reflected beam is combined with the signal reflected by the specimen being inspected. These two signals have the same frequency, but may differ in amplitude and phase. The signals combine to produce an interference pattern, a pattern that changes as the specimen changes, or as the position of the specimen changes relative to a detector (2, 4). A computer (10) is programmed to distinguish features in the interference pattern attributable to irregularities in the material from features in the interference pattern attributable to sources of noise.

Abstract: A sausage cutting machine has cutting elements (5a, b; 5c, d) preceded by mold elements (38, 36) which hold the sausages (10) apart during cutting. A sausage cutting machine has two counter-rotating circuits (40, 42) which have axes perpendicular to the sausage strand travel direction and each of which has a cutting element (5a, b; 5c, d) preceded by a mold element (38, 36) so that the mold elements holds the sausages (10) apart by a desired distance as the cutting elements engage the sausage. An Independent claim is also included for a method of cutting up sausage strands into individual sausages or sausage links using the above machine. Preferred Features: One of the cutting elements is a blade (34) and the other is a counter-holder (32), the blade having a concave bulge (35) at its leading edge and the counter-holder being elastic or spring-mounted. Alternatively, both cutting elements may be blades. The mold elements (36, 38) are flat elements, each of which extends parallel to a line passing through the center point of the cutting element circle of rotation. The mold elements (36, 38) may have a V-shape with the opening facing the sausage strand, the V-shape being formed by blades of adjustable angle. The cutting elements (5a-d) are driven such that their speed at the sausage-engaging region matches the sausage travel speed.

Abstract: A catalyst composition comprising (a) an iron-containing
compound, (b) an organomagnesium compound and (c) a dihydrocarbyl
hydrogen phosphite is disclosed for polymerizing 1,3-butadiene into
syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene. The use of the catalyst composition of
this disclosure avoids the use of environmentally detrimental components
such as carbon disulfide and halogenated solvents. The melting
temperature of the syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene can be varied from
about 100 to about 190 °C by variations in the catalyst components and
the component ratios. The ability to vary the melting temperature with a
single catalyst composition is very desirable. The syndiotactic 1,2-polybutadiene
can be used as a plastic or as an additive for rubber
compositions wherein it can crosslink with conventional rubbers using
conventional crosslinking agents.

Abstract: Self-cleaning printer with reverse fluid flow and ultrasonics and
method of assembling the printer. The printer (10) comprises a print head (60)
defining a plurality of ink channels (70) therein, each ink channel terminating in
an ink ejection orifice (85). The print head also has a surface (90) thereon
surrounding all the orifices. Contaminant (140) may reside on the surface and also
may completely or partially obstruct the orifice. Therefore, a cleaning assembly
(170) is disposed relative to the surface and/or orifice for directing a flow of fluid
along the surface and/or across the orifice to clean the contaminant from the
surface and/or orifice. The cleaning assembly includes a septum (210) disposed
opposite the surface or orifice for defining a gap therebetween. Presence of the
septum accelerates the flow of fluid through the gap to induce a hydrodynamic
shearing force in the fluid. This shearing force acts against the contaminant to
clean the contaminant from the surface and/or orifice. A pump (290) in fluid
communication with the gap is also provided for pumping the fluid through the
gap. As the surface and/or orifice is cleaned, the contaminant is entrained in the
fluid. A filter (300, 310) is provided to separate the contaminant from the fluid.
In addition, a valve system (380) in fluid communication with the gap is operable
to direct flow of the fluid through the gap in a first direction and then in a second
direction opposite the first direction to enhance cleaning effectiveness. Moreover,
an ultrasonic transducer (245) induces pressure waves in the fluid to dislodge the
contaminant and thus clean the surface and/or orifice.

Abstract: A force-controlling robot having a function of drawing a fitting part
from a receiving part. A fitting part held by a robot hand is moved form an
approach start position in a set approach direction under speed and force
control. When the fitting part comes in contact with a receiving part and a
reaction force thereof exceeds a set threshold value, the fitting part is moved
under speed and force control with the set target speed and force and in the set
inserting/fitting direction so as to perform fitting. If stoppage occurs before
the fitting is completed, the fitting part is moved under speed and force control
in the set drawing direction and with the set target drawing speed and drawing
force, to draw the fitting part from the receiving part. As the drawing
operation is automatically performed, restoration is automatically made
without manual operation even if stoppage occurs in the fitting operation.
Further, assembled parts can be automatically disassembled.

Abstract: By a process of crystallizing raffinose under cooling,
raffinose is efficiently crystallized, by continuously or
intermittently circulating a solution containing raffinose,
whereby temperature control can be done rapidly and accurately
and laborious works for removing raffinose crystals adhered
to the container are never needed because raffinose crystals
are not adhered to the crystallization container under cooling,
leading to the elevation of the yield, so the invention is
excellent as a system for producing raffinose crystals
industrially, in particular.
