Abstract: A floorboard and an openable locking system therefor comprise an undercut groove on one long side of the floorboard and a projecting tongue on the opposite long side of the floorboard. The undercut groove has a corresponding upwardly directed inner locking surface at a distance from its tip. The tongue and the undercut groove are formed to be brought together and pulled apart by a pivoting motion which has its centre (C) close to the intersection between the surface planes (HP) and the common joint plane (VP) of two adjoining floorboards. The undercut in the groove of such a locking system is produced by means of at least two disk-shaped cutting tools whose rotary shafts are inclined relative to each other to form first an inner part of the undercut portion of the groove and then a locking surface positioned closer to the opening of the groove. An installation method for a floor of such boards comprises the steps of laying a new board adjacent to a previously laid board, moving the tongue of the new board into the mouth of the undercut groove of the laid board, angling the new board upward during continued insertion of the tongue into the undercut groove and simultaneously angling down the new board to the final position. A manufacturing method for manufacturing the undercut groove uses machining by means of at least two different rotary cutting tools whose rotary shaft is set at different angles. A wedge-shaped tool for laying of the floorboards is wedge-shaped with an upwardly directed engaging surface at its thicker end.

Abstract: A heat removal system includes a heatsink assembly having a base and a plurality of heat conducting folded fin members projecting from a first surface of the base and arranged to leave an open space on the first surface of the base. At least one thermally conductive slug projects from the center of the folded fin members and the folded fin members are thermally coupled to the slug. A gas circulating system is disposed over the slug and fin members projecting from the first surface of the base. The sidewall of a fin may be provided with at least one aperture. The top surface of the fin is closed, thereby permitting the fin to operate as a plenum of sorts. The bottom of the troughs may also be closed. The fins/troughs act as a plenum. A method of producing the folded fin heatsink member is also described.

Abstract: A medical suspension system ( 10 ) includes a ceiling plate ( 30 ) configured for mounting to a support structure ( 16 ). The ceiling plate supports a device ( 12 ), such as a lighthead or video monitor, which is mounted to the ceiling plate via an articulated arm ( 50 ) and a spindle ( 40 ), which is centrally mounted to the ceiling plate. A second device ( 14 ) is mounted to the ceiling plate, not through the spindle ( 40 ), in the conventional manner, but via an adapter plate ( 62 ), which is mounted directly to the ceiling plate. This increases the number of devices which are readily carried by the support structure without extending the spindle length which conventionally occurs when additional hubs are added to the main spindle.

Abstract: High-efficiency combustion engines, including Otto cycle engines, use a steam-diluted fuel charge at elevated pressure. Air is compressed, and water is evaporated into the compressed air via the partial pressure effect using waste heat from the engine. The resultant pressurized air-steam mixture then burned in the engine with fuel, preferably containing hydrogen to maintain flame front propagation. The high-pressure, steam-laden engine exhaust is used to drive an expander to provide additional mechanical power. The exhaust can also be used to reform fuel to provide hydrogen for the engine combustion. The engine advantageously uses the partial pressure effect to convert low-grade waste heat from engine into useful mechanical power. The engine is capable of high efficiencies (e.g. >50%), with minimal emissions.

Abstract: An Sn-Zn lead-free solder alloy according to the present invention is constructed in a manner such that it is an Sn-based solder alloy indispensably containing 6 to 10 wt% zinc at least and further containing 0.0015 to 0.03 wt% magnesium and 0.0010 to 0.006 wt% aluminum. Upon preservation of solder paste not only under refrigeration but also at a room temperature or higher, the inside of solder particle is protected by the protective magnesium/aluminum oxide film formed on the solder particle surface, and a reaction between zinc and an activator is suppressed, so that preservation stability is improved, and at the elevated temperature during soldering, the solder alloy enters a state where said protective oxide film is easily destroyed, so that good wettability is held. <IMAGE>
