Title: Application of textured or patterned surfaces to a prototype
Inventor: EISINGER LEE
IPC: B29C67/00
Filed: 2000-03-09
Abstract: Rapid prototyping technologies are being used to save time and money. One such method of producing a rapid phototype is that known as stereolithography. This method creates a tangible 3-D object from a CAD drawing by directing ultraviolet laser radiation onto a vat of polymer resin. The invention disclosed pertains to application of a texture or pattern to a prototype part produced from such method above. The texture or pattern is applied to the surface of the prototype part. The method involves using a photo-sensitive resist that is sprayed onto the surface of the item until a predetermined thickness is achieved. Portions of the surface are pre-selected to provide a texture or pattern. Other portions of the surface are masked or otherwise protected from exposure to a radiation source. After exposure to a light source, the unhardened photo resist is removed, leaving the exposed photo resist on the surface forming the pre-selected pattern or texture.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/CH85/00001 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 9, 1985 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 9, 1985 PCT Filed Jan. 10, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO85/03030 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 18, 1985.The invention is primarily concerned with a sandwich material (55) made of sheets based on paper. This material is substantially comprised of a sheet (42) of corrugated paper (44) forming one or several layers. An intermediate paper sheet (31) is bonded to the corrugations of the sheet 42. A film (29) of a thermoplastic compound adheres physically as the result of an extrusion to the outer side of the intermediate paper sheet (31). The process for manufacturing this material consists firstly in extruding a film (29) of thermoplastic compound on the intermediate paper sheet (31), and then in bonding the web (27) of protective layer thus obtained on the corrugations of the sheet of corrugated paper (42). The invention is remarkable in that these operations are carried out on a standard machine for manufacturing corrugated paperboard. However, on the one hand an adhesive setting instantly at room temperature is used, and on the other hand the various heating elements used to bring about the setting of adhesives polymerizing through an endothermic reaction are kept switched off. The invention is particularly useful for making furniture or wall panels.

Title: Validation of optical ranging of a target surface in a cluttered environment
Inventor: BLAIS FRANCOIS
IPC: G01S17/89
Filed: 1993-08-06
Abstract: To provide a system for the optical ranging of a selected point on a target surface irradiated with light while avoiding false signals from other sources in a cluttered environment, the system employs a combination of the triangulation ranging technique with the Biris ranging technique, i.e. imaging onto a position sensitive photodetector through an apertured mask. This combination enables the respective equations for range that apply to the respective techniques to be combined to generate an equation that is true only for target surface points that are directly on the light beam, hence enabling rejection of false signals on the basis of those that fail to satisfy this latter equation. The system has the advantage of flexibility, in that it permits the light beam to be directed onto the target surface from a wide range of locations relative to the detector. In addition, three dimensional data on the target surface can be obtained by using at least one further light beam inclined to the first beam and a mask with more than two apertures. For many practical applications this latter arrangement avoids a need to scan the target surface relative to the detector.

Patent AU-4713493-A (AU)
Title: A fault-tolerant computer system
Inventor: WILLIAMS EMRYS JOHN
IPC: H03K19/007
Filed: 1993-07-19
Abstract: A fault-tolerant computer architecture is described wherein the effect of hardware faults is diminished. The architecture employs a main data bus having a plurality of interface slots for interconnecting conventional computer sub-systems. The number and type of sub-systems may vary considerably, however, a central processor sub-system which encompasses the inventive elements of the invention is always included. The central processor sub-system employs a plurality of central processing modules operating in parallel in a substantially synchronized manner. One of the central processing modules operates as a master central processing module, and is the only module capable of reading data from and writing data to the main data bus. The master central processing module is initially chosen arbitrarily from among the central processing modules. Each central processing module contains a means by which the module can compare data on the main data bus with data on a secondary bus within each module in order to determine if there is an inconsistency indicating a hardware fault. If such an inconsistency is detected, each module generates state outputs which reflect the probability that a particular module is the source of the fault. A synchronization bus which is separate from the main data bus interconnects the central processing modules and transmits the state outputs from each module to every other central processing module.
