Inventor: HOHLBEIN DOUGLAS J
IPC: A46B9/04
Filed: 1999-12-22
Abstract: A toothbrush having a bristle-bearing head divided into at least two sections is disclosed. The free end section, when unstressed, is normally biased to assume an angle of about 15 DEG  with respect to the other, to thereby define an articulated head. The two sections of the head have facing ends joined by a thin bridge or hinge section integral with the two head sections, the bridge or hinge forming a groove between adjacent head sections. The upper surface of the bridge section is substantially flush with the upper surface of the head (opposite to the bristle-bearing surface). The space between the two facing ends is filled with a soft elastomer of about 5 to about 30, preferably about 13 to about 30 Shore A hardness. This hinge construction defines an articulated head of limited flex motion, wherein, when utilized by the average adult brusher, who applies an average brushing force of 0.5 pounds, flexes to a substantially flattened position. According to a second aspect of the invention, each end of the groove terminates in a flange at its extreme outer edge, and the groove, including the flange, is filled with an elastomer, which, due to the presence of the flange, is resistant to peel stresses caused by flexing of the hinge or joint.

Title: Multi-reflecting time-of-flight mass spectrometer and a method of use
IPC: H01J49/16
Filed: 2003-06-21
Abstract: A multi reflecting time-of-flight mass spectrometer MR TOF MS 11. the flight path of ions from an ion source 12 to a receiver is folded along a trajectory by two parallel gridless electrostatic mirrors 15, elongated in the shift direction 7, orthogonal to the direction of reflection. A set of multiple lenses 17 is positioned in the drift space 14 between the mirrors to provide for spatial focusing of ions in the plane of the folded ion path. Each mirror consists of at least 4 electrodes 15C, 15E, 15L arranged and controlled so that to improve ion optics properties. Namely, in addition to time-of-flight focusing in energy and spatial focusing across the plane of the folded ion path, the mirrors also provide time-of-flight focusing with respect to the spatial spread of ions across the said plane. Because of improved spatial and time focusing, the MR TOF MS of the invention provides for a wider acceptance and confinement of ion beam along an extended folded ion path.

Title: Precision current-source arrangement
IPC: H03F3/347
Filed: 1983-12-20
Abstract: A current-distribution circuit (1) supplies a plurality of substantially equal currents (i1, i2, i3 and i4) to a permutation circuit (13), which transfers these currents to outputs (18, 19, 20 and 21) in accordance with a cyclic permutation.

Filed: 1999-06-08
Abstract: Particulate chromatography medium such as silica is packed into a chromatography column (2) along a feed conduit (16, 18) leading to a packing port (1) through the column wall. A motive flow of a liquid packing vehicle such as a non-polar organic solvent is established along a feed conduit by a pump (111).
