Abstract: A silencer (10) for silencing exhaust gases includes
an acoustic resonator chamber (52) which serves as a
spark arrester to trap burning carbon particles (74)
and prevent them passing to the atmosphere. The
silencer (10) has an exhaust gas inlet (20) and an
exhaust gas outlet (30). Exhaust gases pass from
the inlet to the outlet through a first passage (56)
and into a first chamber (66). The first chamber
(66) communicates with an acoustic resonator chamber
(52) by means of a connecting passage (62). The
connecting passage (62) is positioned adjacent the
first passage (56) so that sparks in the exhaust
enter the acoustic resonator chamber (52) where they
are trapped. The silencer thus avoids the need for
a separate spark arrester, as required by prior art
silencers.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing microneedle structures is disclosed using soft lithography and photolithography, in which micromold structures made of a photoresist material or PDMS are created. The micromold manufacturing occurs quite quickly, using inexpensive materials and processes. Once the molds are available, using moldable materials such as polymers, microneedle arrays can be molded or embossed in relatively fast procedures. In some cases a sacrificial layer is provided between the forming micromold and its substrate layer, for ease of separation. The microneedles themselves can be solid projections, hollow “microtubes,” or shallow “microcups.” Electrodes can be formed on the microneedle arrays, including individual electrodes per hollow microtube.
