Abstract: A method of adding boron to a tungsten, or tantalum, containing titanium aluminide alloy to form a boride dispersion in the tungsten, or tantalum, containing titanium aluminide. A molten tungsten, or tantalum, containing titanium aluminide alloy is formed and tungsten, or tantalum, boride is added to the molten tungsten, or tantalum, containing titanium aluminide alloy to form a molten mixture. The molten mixture is cooled and solidified to form a tungsten, or tantalum, containing titanium aluminide alloy having a uniform dispersion of tungsten, or tantalum, boride particles substantially without the formation of clusters of tungsten, or tantalum, boride. The titanium aluminide alloy comprises between 0.5at% and 2.0at% boron.

Abstract: The rotary iron, for laundry, has at least one main rotary cylinder (10-12) and a counter pressure unit (30), together with a drive (20) to carry the laundry through the iron. A monitor (60) registers the absolute value of the steam emerging from the final cylinder (10), linked to a control (50). The control (50) modifies at least two of the three parameters of the temp. of the final cylinder (10), the force applied by the counter pressure unit (30) and the speed of the drive (20), as a function of the relative humidity and the temp. measured by the monitor (60). The monitor has a trap (61,62) to deflect the atmosphere in the vicinity of the final cylinder (10) into a chamber (62) fitted with at least one fan (63). The chamber (62) has at least one humidity sensor (64) and at least one temp. sensor (65). The trap has at least one tube (61) with a narrow dia., with one end close to the outlet from the final cylinder (10), and the other end leading into the chamber (62). The outer surface of the cylinders (10) is covered with an insulating cladding, in turn covered by a heating film or fabric. An Independent claim is included for a laundry ironing operation, where initially the atmosphere in the vicinity of the final cylinder (10) is measured for humidity and temp. The measured humidity is compared with a nominal value. On a deviation from the nominal value, at least two parameters of the ironing action are modified, to bring the measured values into line with the nominal humidity value. Preferred Features: The variations are made as a function of the absolute humidity measurements taken from the relative humidity and temp. Corrections are made if the relative humidity value is outside 95-99%.

Abstract: An alpha-numeric string electronic telephone and client service provider communication system is superimposed over the existing Internet, telephone, and pager legacy systems to provide a much simpler communication system that will work seamlessly with the existing communication systems. The new system will allow an unlimited number of connections and an unlimited numbers of signal type protocols to be used in the future and eventually phase out all of the separate numeric only telephone systems world wide and at the same time integrate the legacy e-mail system of the Internet with the legacy world wide numeric communication systems in a seamless and more powerful manner. Some other advantages of the new system is to eliminate the need for having to list up to five or more numbers on an individual business card. The system can eliminate the need to show multiple area codes at the same location and can even eliminate the need to have to give out ones company extension number. Another major benefit is that at least two types of communication connections can be offered at different prices to the customer. With the current invention a client service provider can offer connections of the legacy direct type at one price and connection via the Internet at a different price depending on the service requested by the customer.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de synchronisation d'allumage pour un moteur à combustion interne comprenant un détecteur de position du vilebrequin et une unité de reconnaissance de fonctionnement régulier. L'invention vise à éviter le recours à un détecteur de position de l'arbre à cames. A cet effet, le procédé de synchronisation selon l'invention consiste, après le démarrage du véhicule, à effectuer un allumage dans au moins un cylindre, à tous les points morts hauts. Chaque fois que le vilebrequin a effectué une rotation de 720°, le moment d'allumage est décalé d'une valeur déterminée. L'effet du décalage du moment d'allumage est déterminé par l'intermédiaire de l'unité de reconnaissance de fonctionnement régulier, et il est supposé qu'un allumage a lieu dans la zone du point mort haut où se produit le décalage du moment d'allumage, si le fonctionnement du moteur présente une irrégularité dépassant une valeur limite prédéterminée, ou bien il est supposé qu'un allumage a lieu dans la zone du point mort haut où ne se produit aucun décalage du moment d'allumage, si le fonctionnement du moteur reste régulier, c'est-à-dire qu'il ne varie pas au-delà d'une valeur limite prédéterminée.

Abstract: A micro electro-mechanical device embodied within an ink ejection nozzle having an actuating arm that is caused to move an ink displacing paddle when heat inducing electric current is passed through the actuating arm is disclosed. The paddle is located in an ink chamber and the actuating arm passes through an actuator aperture in the chamber. The actuating arm has an inner arm and an outer arm and electrical current is supplied to the inner arm to cause bending of the actuating arm so as to move the paddle to eject a droplet of ink from the ink chamber. To prevent spurious bending modes and to force the actuating arm to undergo a desired bending mode so that the paddle moves appropriately to eject the ink droplet, the actuating arm includes connecting rods which connect side edges of the inner and outer arms and torsion bars which connect the connecting rods. The torsion bars and connecting rods reduce the likelihood of unwanted bending modes taking place which may effect the expulsion of an ink droplet from the chamber.

Abstract: A solvent-free polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion having a high solids content of polymer or formulation constituents is described, which is obtainable bya) the multistage preparation of a polyurethane base dispersion andb) by the subsequent preparation of a polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion.This polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion not only is distinguished by complete freedom from solvents and high solids contents in combination with low viscosity and a technically simple preparation process but also has excellent mechanical properties and, owing to the low hydrophilicity, high water resistance. The polyurethane-polymer hybrid dispersion proposed according to the invention can be used in an outstanding manner in formulations for sport floor coverings, said dispersion being suitable in particular as a binder for resilient coats, as a spray or leveling coating on resilient or rigid substrates, as an adhesion promoter or primer, as filling compounds for sealing pores, as adhesive for the adhesive bonding of prefabricated resilient layers or for the sealing of sport floor coverings.
