Patent EP-0619620-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRESSELSCHMITT JOACHIM
IPC: F24D19/10
Filed: 1994-04-08
Abstract: The invention is based on the design and arrangement of the antenna (20) in consumption breakdown meters, especially heating-cost and hot-water-cost breakdown meters which are read centrally in a meter located outside dwellings, the measurement data being transmitted by means of a wire-free link operating in the UHF band and being transmitted between the consumption breakdown meter and a central receiving point. The consumption breakdown meter, especially the heating-cost breakdown meter, is an autonomous measurement point which can electronically store the consumption detected and can also display it directly. The antenna (20) is arranged either inside the housing (1, 21) of the consumption breakdown meter or directly on it, so that there is no need for special laying of an antenna (20) at the installation site of the load breakdown meter. Instead of this, this antenna is a permanent component of the consumption breakdown meter, especially of the heating-cost breakdown meter. Various types of design (shape) and arrangement of the antenna (20) are disclosed, in or on the housing (1, 21). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electrical, female, box-shaped terminal (10) formed from a one-piece metal stamping and having a generally planar bottom (20), a pair of spaced sides (22,24), a first upper member defining a resilient contact arm (26) integral with one of the sides and extending transversely thereof towards the other side, and a second upper member defining a resilient back-up spring (28) integral with the other of said sides, which back-up spring (28) extends transversely of the sides and overlays the contact arm (26). The contact arm (26) has a forward end section (30) which extends downwardly towards, but spaced from, the bottom (20) to define a gap (32) therebetween into which a mating male blade terminal (12) can be inserted. The forward end section (30) is so shaped as to ensure that the contact arm (26) exerts a contact force upon the mating male blade terminal (12) in a direction that is substantially normal to the plane of the terminal (12). This arrangement allows the box-shaped terminal (10) of the invention to be used in conjunction with mating male blade terminals of differing thicknesses.

Abstract: This invention relates to flexible cellulose fibers with a reduced modulus and a decreased NMR degree of order, particularly for use in the textile field, which are obtained by pressing out solutions of the cellulose in hydrous NMMNO through spinning nozzles along an air travel into an NMMNO-containing aqueous and/or alcoholic precipitation bath as well as by a conventional rinsing, aftertreatment and drying, with strengths of between 15 and 50 cN/tex, and to a process for their production. According to the invention, these flexible cellulose fibers have an initial modulus of less than 1,500 cN/tex, and the relationship of the heights of the lines at 88 ppm and 85 ppm above the spectrum base line in the highly resolved 13C-NMR solid-body spectrum is </=1. Furthermore, these flexible cellulose fibers are obtained by means of a process in which specified hydrophilic, low-molecular weight, organic additives, which are soluble in the polymer solution and have mainly nitrogen-containing groupings are added in defined amounts to the spinning solution of the cellulose as well as to the precipitation bath.

Abstract: The invention herein provides a method and apparatus for inspecting a bonded joint between components. A cross-sectional image of the joint is analyzed by determining the location of a first characteristic of the joint, the centroid of the joint in the cross-sectional image; and then measuring a second characteristic of the joint in reference to the location of the centroid. This measurement may be used by comparing it with a predetermined specification expected for the measurement for the purpose of determining the quality of the joint. The invention is particularly advantageous for studying cross-sectional X-ray images of solder joints between electronic components and substrata upon which they are mounted and can be implemented for analyzing the images produced in cross-sectional X-ray inspection machines such as scanned beam X-ray laminography systems or digital tomosynthesis systems.

Abstract: In a CDMA mobile communication system, for realizing a multiple-access, a common reverse channel 10 is divided into an access channel 10A and a message channel 10B. When data (packet) to be transmitted occurs in any mobile station 1-4, mobile station having data to be transmitted transmits a transmission request signal including information, such as packet size or the like, by using the access channel 10A. In contrast, base station 30 transmits a transmission permission signal, which designates a transmission timing of data and a spreading code to be used as transmitting, on the basis of the state of utilization of message channel 10B and the state of occurrence of data. Mobile stations 1-4 transmits data in accordance with the spreading code and the transmission timing which are designated from base station 30.

Abstract: A pouch machine forms a series of pouches in a continuous web of pouch material by folding the web and then forming spaced side seals to define a pouch closed on three sides with an initially unsealed mouth on top. The pouch is opened to its maximum volume prior to filling by pressurizing the pouch. Pressurization is achieved by introducing a curtain of compressed air under a plate and passing the mouths of the pouches adjacent the plate and thus through the air curtain. The air curtain is preferably at least as wide as the mouth so the entire mouth is subjected to the air pressure, thereby causing the pouch to inflate to its maximum volume. Continuous web height control is provided to assure alignment of the web with the plate. A lip at the mouth may be formed by folding one edge of the pouch over prior to creation of the side seals. After filling the lip is folded back up prior to top sealing to make a balanced pouch. Alternately the lip may be formed by folding the web unevenly so the back panel is higher than the front panel. A plow with driven adjustability provides precise control of folding such that the web can be folded into either a balanced or lipped pouch.
