Title: Method for hydrophilizing absorbent foam materials
Inventor: DESMARAIS THOMAS ALLEN
IPC: C08J/
Filed: 1992-08-07
Granted: 1996-08-29
Abstract: Normally hydrophobic foams, such as polyurethane foams and polymerized water-in-oil emulsion foams, are rendered hydrophilic by means of treatment with simple surfactants and hydrophilizing agent salts. Thus, a surfactant-containing foam is treated with a solution of, for example, calcium chloride, and is dried to leave a substantially uniformly distributed residue of hydrated or hydratable calcium chloride on the surfactant-containing internal foam surfaces. In-use, the combination of surfactant and calcium chloride hydrate provides a hydrophilic surface to the foam. Other hydratable calcium or magnesium salts such as magnesium chloride can be used. The resulting hydrophilized foams are suitable for use in absorbent devices, including diapers, sanitary napkins, bandages, and the like.

Title: Process for producing corrosion inhibiting particles suitable for protective coatings
Inventor: OTHEN DAVID GEORGE
IPC: C09D5/08
Filed: 1985-07-01
Granted: 1988-02-18
Abstract: A process for producing corrosion inhibiting particles comprising binding corrosion inhibiting anions to particles of an inorganic oxide by ion-exchange to form anion-exchanged particles, the anions of which are releasible by further ion-exchange in which the inorganic oxide particles having surface hydroxyl groups are first contacted with an acidic solution containing labile anions at a pH sufficiency below 7 for the protons of the hydroxyl groups to be replaced by the labile anions and thereafter contacting the particles of the labile anion-exchanged inorganic oxide with a solution containing the required corrosion inhibiting anions so that the labile anions are replaced by the corrosion inhibiting anions. The labile anions are anions of water soluble, acid compounds which have a lower affinity for the oxide surface than the required corrosion inhibiting anions and which form a soluble salt with the cation of the compound providing the corrosion inhibiting anions. The process facilitates the use of corrosion inhibiting anions which are sensitive to low pH in the preparation of corrosion inhibiting particles. In particular the process is useful for producing molybdate exchange inorganic oxide particles.

Title: Elevator brake with shoes actuated by springs
Inventor: GLASER WALTER
IPC: B66B5/24
Filed: 1993-06-22
Granted: 1996-12-12
Abstract: An elevator car braking system in which a pair of brake shoes engage and grip the hoisting ropes, part of the hoisting apparatus or the car guide rails when compressed springs, which are normally held in a compressed state by an electrically operable locking assembly, are released. The springs are compressible by a fluid operable piston and cylinder assembly. The springs move a cam follower, linked to one of the shoes, along cam surfaces shaped and disposed to cause the cam follower to move one brake shoe toward the other brake shoe. The locking assembly is responsive to car speed and/or movement of the car from a floor with its doors open. Switches operable by the cam follower control the car electrical controls so that movement of the car is prevented when the springs are not compressed and when there is excessive shoe wear.

Title: Local autoadaptive optical sensor
Inventor: BOHM MARKUS
IPC: H04N3/15
Filed: 1997-09-27
Granted: 1999-11-25
Abstract: To avoid the overexposure and underexposure of pixels which occurs with high image contrasts, each pixel contains a local autoadaptive control. With the help of this control, each pixel automatically ends its integration period as soon as it has integrated enough photoelectric current. An analog signal represents the length of the integration period selected by the pixel. Together with the integrated pixel signal, it represents brightness information with high dynamics and with low requirements regarding the dynamics of the individual signals. Because of their local adaptivity, the image sensors are suitable for all applications where high brightness contrasts must be processed, such as guiding a motor vehicle in highway traffic, nature films and astronomy.
