Title: Cartridge unit having negatively pressurized ink storage
Inventor: SILVERBROOK KIA
IPC: B41J29/02
Filed: 2004-12-20
Granted: 2011-05-10
Abstract: A cartridge unit (10) for an inkjet printer, with an ink storage compartment (46) and an ink feed system (30) for connection to a printhead (22). The ink storage compartment has a displaceable wall section (48) so that its variable storage volume (46) is variable. The displaceable wall (48) is biased (54) toward expanding the variable storage volume (46) so that there is a negative pressure in the ink storage volume (46), such that ink does not inadvertently leak from the ink ejection nozzles. Without negative pressure, an ink meniscus can bulge from the nozzles. The meniscus will 'pin' itself to the edge of the nozzle aperture and may be strong enough to stop ink leakage. However, paper dust or other contaminants will eventually stop the bulging meniscus from pinning itself on the nozzle rim and leakage occurs. A negative pressure in the ink storage volume makes the meniscus invert back into the nozzle aperture. As the meniscus does not bulge out of the nozzle, paper dust on the nozzle surface does not break the surface tension to cause leakage.

Abstract: A method of generating a mass spectrum from an FTMS is disclosed. A first quantity of ions from a source, having a first m/z range, is captured and detected in the FTMS measurement cell to produce a first output. A second quantity of ions, having a second m/z range which at least partially does not overlap with the first m/z range, is then captured and detected so as to produce a second output. The two outputs are then combined using a processor so as to "stitch" together the outputs, which may be FTMS transients or may first be Fourier Transformed into the frequency mass domain, into a composite output from which a composite mass spectrum covering the full range of m/z ratios included by the first and second ranges can be produced.

Granted: 2011-08-16
Abstract: A method to condense and recover CO2 from CO2 containing streams. A first step involve providing at more than one heat exchanger, with each heat exchanger having a first flow path for passage of a first fluid and a second flow path for passage of a second fluid. A second step involves passing a stream of very cold natural gas sequentially along the second flow path of each heat exchanger until it is heated for distribution and concurrently passing a CO2 containing stream sequentially along the first flow path of each heat exchanger, allowing the water vapor portion of the CO2 containing stream to condense and precipitate on the condensing heat exchangers. A third step involves passing a water vapor free CO2 containing stream to a cryogenic heat exchanger to condense, precipitate and recover CO2. This processes results in the recovery of CO2 and water vapor from CO2 containing streams using condensing heat exchangers, chiller, compressor, expander and power generator to recover the low value thermal heat available in CO2 containing waste streams.

Abstract: Information about desired songs is collected on a portable memory device in communication with a radio tuner. The radio tuner may receive signals from a terrestrial or satellite digital radio transmission, or from an analog radio transmission. These transmissions may include text data about the current song being played. Upon activation by a user, song data is stored on the memory device. The memory device is then connected to a computer system, which uses software to extract the song data and uniquely identify the song. The identified songs are stored on the computer system, and can be used to allow the user easy access to the identified song through prior art techniques. If no textual data is stored about a song, the song is identified by identifying the radio station that played the song and the time at which the user activated the mechanism.
