Abstract: The invention relates to a fluid-cooled mould for the continuous casting of metals, in particular steel, with a shaping wall consisting, in particular, of a metallic material, which is secured on a supporting plate and is provided with connections for a cooling fluid for the purpose of cooling the wall. In order to reduce the weight of the mould suspension, including the oscillation device to be moved and thereby to enable higher oscillation frequencies to be set for the minimum power requirement in the case of fluid-cooled oscillating moulds, it is proposed to secure spring elements (7) on that side of the supporting plate (2) which faces away from the wall (1). The spring elements are secured on one side in a uniformly distributed manner and have a considerably lower stiffness in the casting direction than in the two transverse directions. In addition, the invention proposes that the spring elements (7) extend in a direction transverse to the casting direction, that the opposite ends of the spring elements (7) be secured on a carrier plate (6), that the carrier plate (6) be connected to a fixed base frame (12) and that an oscillation device (16,17) engage on the supporting plate (2).

Abstract: An optical fibre cable (6) for temperature detection comprises an optical fibre (13) and a temperature-responsive swellable body. The fibre (13) and the swellable body are held together by a helically-wound wire (14). The swellable body includes an elastic tube (11) which contains wax having a given melting point. When the wax melts, it expands in volume and causes the tube (11) to swell and therewith stretch the wire (14), resulting in the bending of the optical fibre (13). The fibre cable (6) is used in an OTDR-system. The propagation of light pulses (P) is measured and a heated section of the fibre cable (6) is detected through the detection of attenuated, reflected light pulses. A desired light attenuation in a range of from 0.01-0.1 Db/m can be obtained by appropriate selection of the parameter values of the fibre cable (6) for example the pitch (S) of the wire helix (14) and the volumetric expansion of the wax. This enables the locations of several heated sections along the fibre cable (6) to be established. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A connector provides alignment between an electro-optic device and an optical fiber of an optical fiber cable. The connector employs a holding member for removably retaining the working end of the optical fiber and an electro-optic device aligned with each other for communication therebetween. The holding member has a cavity in one side wall in which the device is removably retained, and a channel, from an opposite side wall to the base of the cavity, in which the optical fiber is positioned. The channel is of varying diameter, and includes a cavity facing end having a diameter which is sufficient to accommodate the optical fiber but which is smaller than the outer diameter optical fiber cable. The cavity facing end of the channel ensures alignment of the optical fiber with the device retained in the cavity. A clamp member comprising spreadable prongs secures the optical fiber cable in position in the larger diameter region of the channel of the holding member. The clamp member and holding member cooperate together to form a single connector unit which is easily accommodated on a circuit board and secureable thereto.

Abstract: The apparatus for machining and material processing includes an excimer laser and a Fresnel zone plate array (FZP) positioned parallel to the workpiece, with the distance between the FZP and the workpiece being the focal length of the FZP. For each hole to be formed on the workpiece a corresponding Fresnel zone is patterned onto the FZP. Each Fresnel zone may be patterned directly centered over the desired hole location or in high density patterns it may be located off-center from the hole with deflection being accomplished by the formation of finer circular arcs on the side of the Fresnel zone opposite the desired direction of deflection. A beam scanner is included to provide a more uniform illumination of the FZP by the laser beam. The scanning eliminates non-uniformity of intensity. The alignment mechanism uses a helium-neon laser, the beam from which is projected onto a surface relief grating on the workpiece. The reflected light from the surface relief grating is filtered to create interference fringes which, when aligned, provide maximum light intensity projected through a transmission grating on the Fresnel zone plate.
