Abstract: The present invention is a method of making polymeric particles
having a predetermined and controlled size and size distribution. The method
includes the steps of dissolving a polymer in a solvent, and forming a suspension
of small droplets of solvent having dissolved polymer in water containing a water-insoluble
particulate stabilizer having a size of less than 100 nm. The suspension
is vacuum boiled at a pressure of less than 500 mm Hg to remove the solvent from
the droplets.

Abstract: An exposure apparatus for transferring a pattern
formed on a mask to a substrate. The apparatus comprises:
a support mechanism having three support legs (3), the
three support legs being adapted to support the support
mechanism at only three points relative to an installation
surface for the exposure apparatus. An illumination
optical surface system (ILS) is provided on the support
mechanism to illuminate the mask having the pattern formed
thereon. In the apparatus, as viewed in a vertical
direction relative to the installation surface, the three
support legs (3) constitute three vertexes of a triangle
and the illumination optical system (ILS) is substantially
symmetrical with respect to a straight line drawn from one
vertex (36) of the triangle toward the middle point in one
side of the triangle opposite the one vertex (36).

Inventor: VANDENBERGHE TERRY
IPC: F02D41/00
Filed: 1998-07-01
Abstract: A technique is disclosed for operating an internal
combustion engine (50) near the lean burn limit. This
technique includes sensing a first characteristic
corresponding to a mean effective pressure (MEP) of the
engine (50) and a second characteristic corresponding to
fluid pressure (IMP) in the intake manifold (56). An
engine performance criterion is established as a function
of the first and second characteristics (MEP and IMP).
This performance criterion corresponds to an observed
emission rate of a pollutant from the engine (50). A
target for the performance criterion is selected which
corresponds to lean burn operation of the engine (50)
with a limited emission rate of a pollutant. A mixture
of air and fuel provided for combustion by the engine
(50) is controlled in accordance with the performance
criterion and the target. The performance criterion may
correspond to: ((BMEP x IMT)/IMP). Furthermore, this
technique may be applied to lean burning, gaseous-fuelled
engines configured to drive an electrical power
generator.

Abstract: A sensing device and method for determining the proximity and
lateral movement of a second object (42) relative to a first object (32). To
determine proximity and lateral movement, the second object is illuminated to
create light contrasts on that second object that correspond to unique structural
and/or printed features (14) of that second object. Light contrast data is compared
to reference data to determine proximity and lateral movement of the
second object relative to the first object. The invention typically utilizes an
illumination source (40), imaging optics (34), and a sensor array (38) mounted
to the first object. This invention can be used in the end-effectors (104) of a
robotic arm to manage handling of a payload (106). It can also be used as a
contact sensor to gate the operation of a manual scanning device (120) when
the scanner is brought into contact with the surface of a document (128).

IPC: B65D47/00
Filed: 1999-03-16
Abstract: The two main components (2, 3) are initially connected together by a deliberate weak line (4) at a connecting zone and the module forms a channel or nozzle unit with an opening for guiding the dispensed item when both parts are in the operational position. At least one component forms a shear zone (34) which breaks the weak connection when one of the components is pressed out of its original molded position. An Independent claim is made for a process for injection molding the dispenser module and then separating both parts by shearing at the weak line. Preferred Features: The shear zone comprises shear faces (21, 25) sliding in intimate contact with each other and the connecting weak line links the shear surfaces (21) of one component to a transverse leading face (29) of the other component. The connecting line is at the front end of the moving component (3) in its direction of movement. When the weak line is broken the moving component slides in a play-free guide which starts at the shear zone and permits movement of the moving component in the operational direction only. The guide is open on one side and only when the moving component is in the dispensing position does it cover and guide the front end of the component on all faces.

Title: Ionization system
Inventor: RICHIE WILLIAM S JR
IPC: H01L21/265
Filed: 1999-08-16
Abstract: A room ionization system includes a plurality of
emitter modules, each including an electrical ionizer. The
emitter modules are spaced around the room and are connected
in a daisy-chain manner to a system controller. Each
emitter module has an individual address for allowing the
system controller or a remote control transmitter to
individually address and control each emitter module.
Electrical lines containing both power and communication
lines connect the plurality of emitter modules with the
system controller. Each emitter module stores a balance
reference value and an ion output current reference value
for use by automatic balance control and automatic ion
output current control circuitry. These reference values
are stored in a software-adjustable memory so that they may
be easily changed via the system controller or via the
remote control transmitter if actual measured balance or
decay times in the work space, such as measured by a charged
plate monitor, indicate an ion imbalance or out of range ion
output current. Each emitter module can send detailed alarm
condition information and emitter module identification
information to the system controller upon detection of a
malfunction. Each emitter module connected to the system
controller may be individually set to a desired operating
power mode. The emitter modules use a switching power
supply to lessen effects of line loss. Each emitter module
includes miswire protection circuitry so that the electrical
lines may be automatically flipped if initially connected in
the reverse manner.

Abstract: Dialkali metal organosilanolate and dialkali metal
organosiloxanolate salts are manufactured from cyclic
siloxanes or linear silicone polymers using a heterogeneous
interfacial reaction process. A stoichiometric excess of an
alkali metal hydroxide such as potassium hydroxide or an
alkali metal oxide as a solid or dissolved or dispersed in a
compatible solvent, is prepared and used as a first phase.
The cyclic siloxane or linear silicone polymer is placed in
a second phase either neat or dissolved or dispersed in
another solvent which is immiscible with the first phase.
The resulting silanolate and siloxanolate salts can be used
as monomers for solid-liquid phase and liquid-liquid phase
interfacial polymerization or in a polycondensation process
for the synthesis of alternating siloxane polymers. They
can also be used as ring opening initiators for the base
catalyzed polymerization of cyclic siloxanes.

Abstract: The flower tea ball preparation method of the present invention mainly comprises preparing flower tea balls using green tea buds, green tea young leaves and edible flowers, and then scenting the flower tea balls with jasmine flowers. With the flower tea balls of the present invention, tea leaves and edible flowers would not disperse in the water during brewing, so drinking is convenient. Besides, the flower tea ball will unfold in water during brewing, thus increasing the aesthetic appeal of the flower tea ball. Scenting the flower tea balls with jasmine flowers enables the flower tea ball to absorb the essence of jasmine flower fragrance, so that the flower fragrance and tea taste are fully enhanced during brewing and multiple steeping is possible, thus it is possible to achieve good appearance, good aroma and good taste.
