Abstract: A counterbalance mechanism is disclosed for offsetting the normal gravitational forces exerted on a rotatable cylindrical hood for an incubator. The mechanism includes a specially shaped cam (80) that is fixed with respect to the rotatable hood. A cam follower (76), mounted on a slide (74) movable with the rotatable hood, is spring biased against the cam. As the rotatable hood is moved to various positions, the spring loading and cam profile coact to produce a counter-rotational force that is opposite and equal to the force of gravity acting upon the hood at any point in its rotation. Detents (108) are provided in the cam at predetermined positions such that the cam follower can be positioned within one of the detents at one or more desired positions of hood rotation such that the hood may be held at that selected position.

IPC: H02M3/158
Filed: 1982-02-03
Abstract: A d.c. converter which produces a d.c. output voltage from a lower d.c. input voltage is arranged so as to minimise the ripple voltage present on the output and the ripple current which is present at the input. Instead of using a single switch to chop the input voltage in the conventional manner, two serially connected switches are used with one switch being 180° out of phase with the other. A capacitor is connected across each switch and because of the 180° phase shift, the two voltages across each capacitor do not add arithmetically. By correctly choosing the output voltage in relation to the input voltage, the ripple values can be reduced to negligible levels without the need to increase the value of the associated reactive components. A converter circuit which is capable of handling power flowing in either direction is described.

Abstract: Chronic auditory stimulation is achieved by establishing an electric field at the base of the cochlea whereby full speech patterns are imparted to a patient. Penetration of the cochlea is not required thereby reducing the risks in installing the implanted electrodes. In a preferred embodiment the electrodes are disc shaped with the ground electrode being larger than the active electrode. The active electrode is preferably placed in the round window at the base of the cochlea or on the promontory. The ground electrode is placed 2-10 mm from the active electrode to thereby confine the electric field. The interconnections to the electrodes are tissue compatible insulation covered wires thereby minimizing stimulation of cutaneous nerve fibers.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated display. e.g. of the electrochromic or liquid crystal type, has a semiconductor substrate (1) with an addressable matrix of transistors (2) integrated therein. A corresponding array of display electrodes (3) is formed over the transistor matrix after first providing electrical connection through via holes in intermediate insulating layers (6, 7). To prevent photo-conduction of the substrate, particularly under projection lighting, a metallic light barrier (8) is provided between insulating layers (6, 7). The barrier includes at least one metal different from those in the vias (11) to facilitate selective etching of the barrier over and close to the edges of the vias. The barrier (8) extends over substantially the whole of the array except for rings of insulating material around each via (11). The preferred barrier metal is aluminium with a thin upper layer of chromium. Both layers may be partially etched to render the barrier surface black and light absorbing.

     wherein
     R 4  and R 5  are independently selected from the group consisting of allyl, alkyl substituted allyl, and lower alkyl groups having from about 1 to about 6 carbon atoms;   R 6  and R 7  are independently selected from the group consisting of allyl, alkyl substituted allyl, and lower alkyl groups having from about 1 to 6 carbon atoms; and   X is oxygen or sulfur wherein at least one of R 4  and R 5  and at least one of R 6  and R 7  is an allyl group. In a typical application, the allyl amine salt of thiocarbamic acid compound is included in sufficient quantity to lessen the rate of soil degradation of the thiolcarbamate. As a result, the herbicidal effectiveness of the thiolcarbamate is enhanced and prolonged, rendering single application of the herbicide effective over a longer period of time.
