Abstract: A spray dyeing apparatus includes a fabric storage tank and a fabric guide tube disposed above and connected to the fabric storage tank to define a continuous loop for fabric. A pump and a blower are provided to pressurize and convey dye and air into the fabric guide tube via spray nozzles disposed on upper side of the fabric guide tube and directing nozzles arranged on a bottom support plate of the fabric guide tube. The bottom support plate has a support surface having a sufficient width to allow the breadth of the fabric to be substantially fully expanded in moving through the fabric guide tube. The directing nozzles are provided on the support plate in a spaced manner to generate high speed air streams in the downstream direction which are confined above the support plate to have the fabric floating above the support plate and moving in the downstream direction. The high speed air streams also create a low pressure zone under the fabric so as to induce a violent vibration on the fabric by means of the air streams and the pressure difference between the upper and lower sides of the fabric. The spray nozzles are provided on the upper side of the fabric guide tube to spray atomized dye onto the expanded fabric. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Automatic gain control in a hearing aid is effected by detecting an input sound level and/or an output sound level and adapting the output sound level supplied by the hearing aid in response to the detected sound level by controlling the gain of the hearing aid towards an actual desired value of the output sound level. The gain control is effected at increases and decreases, respectively, of the input sound level by adjusting the gain towards the actual desired value with an attack time and a release time, respectively, which are adjusted in response to the detected sound level to a relatively short duration providing fast gain adjustment at high input and/or output sound levels and to a relatively long duration providing slow gain adjustment at low input and/or output sound levels.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for the production of electrically conductive passages in semiconductor components preferably positioned on a semiconductor, by means of thermo-migration through the production of a temperature gradient between two opposing outer surfaces of the semiconductor components and application of a conductive doping substance to a cooler outer surface. One outer surface of the semiconductor is positioned on a cooled sample take-up and the opposing outer surface is exposed to heat radiation, which can be controlled both with regard to its total efficiency and its efficiency distribution over the surface of the semiconductor. The total efficiency and/or the efficiency distribution of the heat radiation is adjusted depending upon the temperature measured on at least one temperature measurement point on the semiconductor and/or a semiconductor component.

Abstract: This invention provides a composite foil (1) comprising an organic release layer (3) between a metal carrier layer (2) and an ultra-thin copper foil (4), and a process for producing such composite foils comprising the steps of depositing the organic release layer (3) on the metal carrier layer (2) and then forming an ultra-thin copper foil layer (4) on said organic release layer (3) by electrodeposition. The organic release layer (3) preferably is a nitrogen-containing compound, a sulfur-containing compound, or a carboxylic acid, which provides a uniform bond strength which is adequate to prevent separation of the carrier (2) and ultra-thin copper foil (4) during handling and lamination, but which is significantly lower than the peel strength of a copper/substrate bond, so that the carrier (2) can easily be removed after lamination of the composite foil (1) to an insulating substrate (6). The invention also includes laminates (5) made from such composite foils (1) and printed wiring boards (7) made from such laminates. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode array (i.e., "sensor") and a method for separating near and far-field signals. In one embodiment a horizontal array is used, and in an alternate embodiment a vertical array is used. The electrode array consists of two well-separated pairs of closely spaced electrodes (and a separate ground element). In a typical application of collecting a channel of EEG, "sensing" electrodes are placed in standard locations (e.g., R and Ctr) with a ground electrode placed elsewhere on the head. The voltage measured between the well-separated sensing electrodes is the far-field dominant (i.e., EEG-dominant) channel. Additional electrodes are placed near each of the two sensing electrodes. (The additional electrodes are immediately lateral to the existing electrodes in the horizontal array, and are immediately above the existing electrodes in the vertical array.) The voltages measured between the pairs of closely spaced electrodes are near-field dominant (i.e., EMG/EOG-dominant) channels. The EEG, EMG and EOG signals can be enhanced by uncoupling them by combining information from all channels. The sensor is connected to a monitor via a patient interface cable (PIC). The sensor contains additional circuitry at the connection site that is used by the monitor to identify the presence and type of sensor, and to configure the monitor to invoke the appropriate software that will apply the method of the current invention to collect and uncouple the EEG, EMG and EOG.
