Inventor: KITA HIDEKI
IPC: G01K7/02
Filed: 1997-07-03
Abstract: This ceramic sheath type thermocouple has a long
service life, an improved temperature measuring
responsibility and an improved temperature measuring
precision, and enables repetitive use. The ceramic
sheath type thermocouple has its protective tube(1)
formed of a heat resisting ceramics selected from
silicon nitride, sialon and silicon carbide. In the
protective tube(1) are installed a pair of W-Re wires
(6,7) that are connected to form a joint portion
constituting a temperature measuring point(5). 
A filler(2) made of S1 i N 4  reaction-sintered ceramics is
loaded into the front end portion(4) of the protective
tube(1) to enclose the W-Re wires(6,7). Another filler
(3) made of SiC whisker with a heat conductivity
smaller than that of the filler(3) of the front end
portion(4) is loaded into the rear portion(16) of the
protective tube(1). An inert gas is sealed in the
protective tube(1). Alternatively, the temperature
measuring portion(22) may be formed by exposing from
the front end portion(4) of the protective tube(21) the
joint portion(29) where the ends of the W-Re wires(26,
27) are connected. The temperature measuring portion
(22) is coated with a cover film(28,37) that is made of
silicon carbide, silicon nitride or a composite of
these, all having excellent heat resisting and
corrosion resisting properties.

Abstract: A liquid fuel injector nozzle for a gas turbine combustor
delivers liquid fuel to the combustion chamber in discrete
jets. The liquid fuel injector nozzle includes a fuel
passage (100) that terminates with a swirl pilot (106)
including a plurality of swirl slots (108) for imparting
swirl to the liquid fuel. The spin chamber (110) disposed
downstream of the swirl pilot is configured to deliver the
liquid fuel to the discharge orifice (104) in discrete
jets. The discrete fuel streams are concentrated in a
fashion to minimize atomization until the fuel adequately
penetrates the premixer air stream, resulting in burning
properties that lead to increased efficiency, lower
emissions, greater flame stability and improved pattern
factor when compared to hollow cone spray pattern injection
techniques.

Abstract: In first radio station and a second radio station
constituting a radio transmission system using spatial duplex
diversity, interference signals are cancelled by a power
inversion adaptive array (PIAA), and a second branch of the
transmission side connected to a multiplier, for controlling
the complex coefficient so that the desired received signal
after combination of two branches after PIAA processing at the
receiving side has the optimum vector value. The control
detects the received signal level with an envelope detector at
the receiving side, feeds back the received signal level
information to the transmission side through the transmission
baseband circuit, extracts the information with the receiving
baseband circuit at the transmission side, and inputs the
information into a constant modulus algorithm control circuit.
The constant envelope algorithm control circuit sequentially
controls the complex coefficient so that the received signal
level has a desired constant value.

Patent EP-0878745-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OVERALL GARY SCOTT
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 1998-05-12
Abstract: An improved printer is provided that predicts how many pages can be
printed before the toner or ink cartridge becomes empty, and also predicts how much
time remains before this toner or ink cartridge becomes empty. This prediction is
based upon the previous printing history of the printer while using this particular
toner cartridge. After measuring the quantity of toner left in the toner cartridge, the
printer of the present invention will display the approximate quantity of toner
remaining in the cartridge on a screen of a host computer that is connected to the
printer, either directly or through a network. The monitor screen of the host
computer can also display the predicted number of pages remaining, based on the
printer's previous usage history as described above. The toner measuring device
provides a "level change" output signal when the remaining toner passes through a
predetermined gradation threshold, and depending upon the size of the toner
cartridge and upon the time and date at which the level change was detected, the
predicted number of pages remaining and the actual amount of toner remaining are
more accurately updated upon reaching one of these predetermined gradation
thresholds. As each gradation level transition occurs, the printer calculates a new
value for the "pages per gradation" variable, and also calculates the number of pages
that have been printed since the latest cartridge was installed in the printer, the
number of pages printed since the last level or gradation change, and the number of
pages or sheets printed between the last two level changes. The printer also can
approximate the amount of toner used in printing a particular page of print media to
create a Toner Tally for each printed page, which can be used to judge the amount of
toner used for one print job and compare that to the amount of toner used for a
second print job. The Toner Tally uses a combination hardware/software counter to
count the number of "active' pels of each page for a print job.

Abstract: The invention concerns an in-line roller skate (1), which comprises a rigid shell (2)
wherein a flexible inner shoe (5) is housed. 
     The latter is advantageously lined at the level of its leg portion (51) by a cover (54),
thereby defining with it a sheath substantially open downward in which the upper part
(24) of the shell (2) is housed. 
     In this way, when the skater's ankle bends forwards it is supported by the inner shoe
(5) as a result of the interference arising between the cover (54) and the upper part
(24) of the shell (2). This allows a great freedom of movement in a longitudinal
direction for the skater's ankle, which can be bent even in a very accentuated manner,
differently from what occurs in the known skates, where the bottom of the leg is
enclosed in a rigid leg portion. 
     At the same time, good support is maintained in a lateral direction owing to the upper
part of the shell (24) which allows the transmission of the guiding movements. 
     According to a preferred embodiment, the cover (54) may be hinged to the shell in the
malleolar regions.

Abstract: The invention provides improved methods for making
ink jet printer nozzle plates and to nozzle plates made
by the method. In the method, a polymeric film having a
polymeric layer, an adhesive layer and a protective
layer over the adhesive layer is ablated in order to
produce flow features comprising ink flow channels (16),
firing chambers (14), nozzle holes (18) and an ink
supply region (24). Once the flow features are formed,
the protective layer is removed from the polymeric film
so that the nozzle plate can be attached to a
semiconductor substrate. In the method a portion (26) of
the polymeric material in the ink supply region (24)
remains substantially unablated in order to reduce the
debris produced during the ablation step. By reducing
the amount of debris, removal of the protective layer
after ablation is enhanced.
