Title: Polyesterfibres modified with carbodiimides and process for their preparation
IPC: D01F6/62
Filed: 1990-09-11
Abstract: There are described polyester fibres and filaments which, as a result of a reaction with carbodiimides, have capped carboxyl end groups, for which

  - the free carboxyl end group content is less than 3 meq/kg of polyester, and 
  - the fibres and filaments still contain at least 0.05 per cent by weight of at least one free polycarbodiimide or a reaction product with still reactive carbodiimide groups, and a process for preparing them. 
 
<??>The filaments described are suitable in particular for manufacturing paper machine wire-cloths.

Abstract: A control apparatus for a hydraulically operated
transmission for a vehicle has a control circuit portion
(8) for a lockup clutch (4) and a solenoid valve (S5) for
controlling a clutch (B2) which is engaged in a particular
drive range (L). In another drive range (D) in which the
clutch (B2) is not engaged, an output pressure of the
solenoid valve (S5) is inputted to the control circuit
portion (8). A changeover valve (10) can be switched
between a first position in which a first oil passage (L9)
to be connected to an output side of the solenoid valve
(S5) in the drive range (D) and a second oil passage (L11)
to be communicated with the control circuit portion (8)
are brought into communication with each other, and a
second position in which this communication is shut off.
The changeover valve (10) is switched to the first
position by a hydraulic oil pressure which is generated at
the time of establishing a predetermined transmission
train other than the first-speed transmission train. An
input oil passage (L14) inputs the first signal pressure
to urge the changeover valve (10) to the first position in
interlocking with switching of the changeover valve (10)
to the first position. The first signal pressure is
maintained to a constant pressure without influence by
speed changing.

Abstract: This invention relates to a convection microwave oven in which in the
convection cooking mode the hot air circulating in a cooking chamber forms
an air curtain to prevent the flow of outside air into the chamber through a
number of air-inflow holes. A hot air discharging means 100, which includes
a driving motor 101 and a fan 102, is mounted on the back of the cooking
chamber 54 so that in the convection cooking mode air heated by an electric
heater 56 can be discharged into the cooking chamber 54. Further, said hot
air discharging means 100 is arranged bias toward air-inflow holes 61 which
are formed on one side wall 60 to eliminate vapor int he cooking chamber 54,
whereby hot air is discharged toward the air-inflow holes 61 to make an air
curtain to screen the air-inflow holes 61 in the convection cooking mode.
Therefore, in the convection cooking mode, inflow of the outside air into the
cooking chamber 54 can be prevented.

IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1996-12-20
Abstract: A system and method allow client applications to invoke remote
procedures on a server application using any of a plurality of remote
procedure mechanisms, by selecting a remote procedure call mechanism at
runtime. The system and method uses client and server stubs in the
application that include an mechanism-independent canonical specification
of each procedure interface. The specification defines the form of the
interface and arguments, but not does include conventional mechanism-specific
marshalling arguments for marshalling the arguments. The resulting
compiled stubs may be used with any remote procedure call engine. Such
remote procedure call engines receive the specification of the procedure
interface and the arguments passed by the client application to the server, and
determine at runtime the particular marshalling routines to use, according to
the canonical specification. This defers selection of the marshalling routines,
and hence allows a single compiled client application binary code to be used
with any of a variety of remote procedure call engines and marshalling
routines. Deferring selection of marshalling routines further allows
optimization of data types where the client and server computers share
architectural characteristics. The system includes a interface definition
language compiler that produces the client and server stubs having the
canonical specification of the procedure interfaces, a virtual remote procedure
library that selects a remote procedure call engine for a client, and plurality of
remote procedure call engines.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for forming vehicle registration
number plates wherein a continuous strip (10) of a
laminate comprising a film having a series of
registration numbers printed on an adhesive coated
surface which is protected by a peel-off protective
strip, is punched from the side opposite the strip to
weaken the film on either side of each number, the
weakenings being spaced apart by the length of a number
plate. The strip is peeled off and the film is then
passed between nip rollers (39 and 41) and stopped. The
film is in contact with the roller (39). The adhesive
coated surface faces and is spaced from the roller (40).
A transparent plate (44) having the profile of a number
plate is advanced to the nip of the rollers (39 and 41)
between the film and the roller (40) until its leading
edge is in registry with the punched weaking that leads
a number whereupon the film and the plate (44) are bonded
together face to face by being drawn together through the
nip. The portion of the film with the plate (44) bonded
to it over the number is severed from the remainder of
the film along the punched weakenings on either side of
the number to form the number plate.
