Abstract: An awning assembly comprising an awning canopy rolled onto a roller spindle has two end caps which provide bearing support for the roller spindle and serve as hinge members which are pivotally attached to support brackets mounted on a supporting surface. Each end cap is provided with at least one bore extending parallel to the axis of the roller spindle and/or at least one bore extending laterally in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the roller spindle for the reception of a pivot pin. Each support bracket is provided with a pivot pin aperture which is capable of receiving the pivot pin, to thereby provide a hinged connection between the end cap and the support bracket. This enables a first part of the awning assembly to be raised and held in position by means of a hinged connection before a second part of the awning assembly is raised into its final position by rotating the awning assembly about the hinged connection.

Abstract: Feedstocks of olefinic hydrocarbons having from three to five carbon atoms which contain dimethyl ether impurity in amounts of from 1 to 5000 ppm (wt.) are purified in the liquid phase by contact with an adsorbent comprising a crystalline zeolitic molecular sieve having the faujasite crystal structure. It have been found that contrary to expectations based on prior observations of the catalytic properties of synthetic faujasites, the faujasite adsorbents are significantly more resistant toward coking and consequent deactivation than are zeolite adsorbents having smaller pore diameters. The invention is particularly beneficial when utilized as an adjunct to the process for preparing alkyl tertiary alkyl ethers by the reaction of a primary alcohol such as methanol with C4-5 tertiary olefins such as isobutylene in admixture with other non-reactive olefins and paraffins.

Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: Microstructured surfaces currently in use and the processes used to make them have one or more shortcomings. Some have wide variation in the size distribution or aspect ratio of the microstructure. This variation renders the properties of the microstructured surface difficult to specify, making the surface a poor candidate for optical uses such as absorption or reflectivity. Some microstructures are peculiar to specific substrates, many of which are subject to corrosion. Some microstructured surfaces are opaque to electromagnetic radiation. This limitation precludes their use with transparent media. This invention provides an article comprising a substrate bearing a microlayer which comprises uniformly oriented, crystalline, solid, organic microstructures and a method for preparing said article. The microstructures may be mono- or polycrystalline. In the preferred embodiment, the microstructures are of uniform shape and size. The articles can be prepared by (1) depositing a vapor of an organic compound as a thin, continuous film onto a substrate to provide a composite, and (2) annealing the composite in a vacuum sufficiently such that a physical change is induced in the orginal deposited film to form the microstructures. The microlayer can be overcoated with other materials to provide desired properties to the article. The articles of this invention are useful for many forms of light trapping, energy absorption, imaging, data transmission and storage, and gradient index applications.

Abstract: Appareil et procédé de reproduction électrophotographique pour reproduire une feuille d'un original qui comporte une zone d'image à tons continus et une zone d'information en lignes. Au lieu de reproduire la feuille entière du document avec des trames pour les deux types d'information, on prévoit des moyens pour l'utilisation sélective de trames uniquement pour la zone d'information d'image proprement dite sur la reproduction. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le moyen est constitué d'une source d'éclairage programmable (80, 81), qui est programmée à travers des entrées par l'opérateur qui utilise un tableau de numérisation (52) afin de reproduire sélectivement des parties d'image d'une trame sur une bande photoconductrice chargée avant le développement de l'image électrostatique formée sur la bande, de sorte que seule la zone de la bande recevant l'image proprement dite est exposée à la trame. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la source d'éclairage programmable, comme par exemple des diodes électroluminescentes, module la partie de la séquence d'image qui reçoit une exposition optique des informations d'image avec une exposition du type à trame de sorte que seules les informations d'image proprement dites sont reproduites avec un dessin de trame. Dans encore un autre mode de réalisation, un capteur détecte et détermine automatiquement les parties d'image à réaliser sélectivement sous forme de reproduction à trames.
