Patent EP-0327310-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MOORADIAN ARAM
IPC: H01S3/0941
Filed: 1989-01-31
Abstract: A solid state gain medium (32) is disposed between two mirrors (34, 36) to form a resonant cavity, the cavity length selected so that the gain bandwidth (12, 14) of the gain medium is less than the frequency separation of the cavity modes (16-24). By selecting this cavity length, only a single longitudinal mode will oscillate when the laser operates in a single transverse mode. The microlaser is optically pumped by any appropriate source such as a semiconductor injection laser or laser array. Suitable gain media are Nd:YAG and Nd pentaphosphate.

Abstract: A particulate detergent composition, such as one comprising sodium linear higher alkylbenzene sulphonate (LAS) and bentonite, is made directly from anionic synthetic organic detergent acid by neutralizing such acid with a neutralizing agent, such as aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, in a reaction vessel and directly discharging the neutralized detergent salt from the reaction vessel into an absorption zone wherein globules of the anionic detergent salt, in aqueous solution or dispersion, and particulate solid carrier particles are rapidly circulated and repeatedly brought into contact with one another to produce detergent salt-carrier composition particles or agglomerates. In preferred aspects of the invention the bentonite will be admitted exteriorly to the neutralized detergent salt solution in an absorption zone so as to prevent contact with the walls of such zone of the aqueous solution or dispersion of detergent salt, and the detergent salt-carrier composition will be directly delivered to an agglomerator, granulator or tumbling drum, and the composition will be converted to particles of desired sizes. 
     Also within the invention are apparatuses that are useful in carrying out the described processes. Addi­tionally, instead of employing aqueous or liquid neutralizing agents, powdered solids may be used, in   which case the neutralization and absorption functions may take place in the same zone and be effected by the same materials, such as alkaline builders, e.g. sodium carbonate.

Abstract: The air-cooled type induction motor (2) used for railway vehicles such as the electric car causes sound wave (noise) discomforatable to the ears of the human being when it is rotated. An induction motor (2) according to the present invention has therein a plural­ity of waveguide (or air guide) plate (50) for effi­ciently exhausting air, which serves to cool the motor, outside the motor. These waveguide plates (50) are arranged not to resonate with the frequency of sound wave which is caused by the cooling air. The sound wave is guided outside the motor through the waveguide plates (50) before it is amplified to noise discomfortable to the ears of the human being. Noise caused when the motor is rotated at high speed can be thus eliminated.

Abstract: A method for applying a polymeric resist coating of very high molecular weight to a suitable substrate without the necessity of elaborate purification steps and for ensuring adequate coverage of raised regions in three-­dimensionally patterned substrates. The method comprises exposing the substrate to be coated to the vapor of an anionically polymerizable monomer of the formula: 
CHR=CXY 
where X and Y are strong electron withdrawing groups and R is H or, provided that X and Y are both -CN, C₁-C₄ alkyl for sufficient time to deposit a polymerizable coating thereon. Particularly preferred monomers are 2-cyanoacrylate esters. The monomer condenses and polymerizes on the surface of the substrate to give a highly uniform high molecular weight polymeric coating which is useful as a resist coating in lithographic processes employing plasma or acid etch techniques.

Abstract: The track counter for optical disk in accordance with the present invention, that counts the number of tracks a light beam passes upon when an optical head moves over an optical disk in the radial direction, comprises a passage signal generating circuit (6) for detecting based on a reflected light of the light beam from the optical disk, that the light beam passed upon a track and for releasing a passage signal on that occasion, a counter (7, 8) that counts the passage signals released by the passage signal generating circuit, a count suspending circuit for forecasting that the light beam will pass upon a specific position of a track and for suspending the count by the aforementioned counter of the passage signals during this forecasted period, and a count value compensating circuit for assuming, when the count of the passage signals is suspended by the count suspending circuit, the number of tracks the light beam passed upon during that period, and for adding this assumed number to the count value of the counter. This track counter for optical disk is arranged such that it is able to count accurately the number of tracks the light beam passed upon even when the light beam passed upon the ID sections of a track, or when the passage upon a track cannot be detected because of a scratch on the surface of the disk or the like. Thereby, 
when the optical head moves and slides, the access speed may be enhanced.

Abstract: An emergency lighting system comprising a central monitoring and control unit, a plurality of single point lighting units and a communication system linking all of these units and being configured with a loop topology. Addressing of single point units around the loop is achieved via a protocol whereby a first address is issued by the central unit to the first unit in the loop. This first unit then stores this address as its own and increments the address number before passing it on to the next unit in the loop and so on. When the last unit in the loop finally passes its own incremented address number back to the central unit this provides the central unit with the necessary information to determine the number of single point units in the system. Each single point unit includes mains power detection means and self testing circuitry.
