Abstract: The present invention relates to solid state silicon-based condenser microphone systems suitable for batch production. The combination of the different elements forming the microphone system is more flexible compared to any other system disclosed in the prior art. Electrical connections between the different elements of the microphone system are established economically and reliably via a silicon carrier using flip-chip technology. The invention uses an integrated electronic circuit chip, preferably an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which may be designed and manufactured separately and independent of the design and manufacture of the transducer element of the microphone. The complete sensor system can be electrically connected to an external substrate by surface mount technology with the contacts facing one side of the system that is not in conflict with the above-mentioned interface to the environment. This allows the user to apply simple and efficient surface mount techniques for the assembly of the overall system.

Abstract: A positive-displacement rotary pump comprises a pair of meshing rotors or gears (10, 11), that is, a driving rotor or gear and a driven rotor or gear, respectively, enclosed in a casing with a delivery opening and an intake opening for a fluid. The gears (10, 11) comprise a plurality of teeth (16a, 16b) meshing without encapsulation and at the same time defining sets of helical teeth with a face overlap substantially equal to or close to unity. The combination of a profile of the teeth which prevents encapsulation and of the helical arrangement of the teeth reduces ripple and the noise resulting therefrom when the pump is in operation.

Abstract: Processes for making high quality PCC compositions, and the resulting PCC products thereof. A precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) composition is prepared by a process comprising the step of wet media mill grinding an aqueous slurry of PCC made by carbonation of lime milk, with the grinding being done at a low solids content in a plurality of separate grinding stages, which can done while essentially free of the presence of organic dispersant. After the multi-stage wet grinding step, the ground PCC slurry is partially dewatered in the presence of an organic dispersant in a solid bowl centrifuge. Then, the partially dewatered PCC slurry is subjected, in the presence of an organic dispersant, to fluid shearing forces created in a rotor/stator type mixer. While these three steps are advantageously used together within a single PCC process flow for optimal effect, the individual steps also can be incorporated singly or in lesser combinations thereof into different PCC manufacturing schemes to beneficial effect. The resulting PCC compositions are endowed with reduced high-shear viscosity in aqueous slurry form at high solids content and contain PCC particles of narrower particle size distribution. PCC slurries are provided that are particularly well-suited for paper coatings applications including medium and low coating weight, woodfree paper coatings, although it has wider applicability and is by no means limited thereto. As another aspect, the additional cost otherwise associated with the use of evaporative-based dehydration procedures to increase the PCC solids content in a PCC slurry or associated with the adding of dry CaCO 3  pigment to build slurry solids can be reduced or even eliminated by a facile made in a decanting operation within the inventive process flow.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a safe and quick individual certification method using a portable terminal. When a portable terminal (30) sends a request for certification to a certification server (10), the certification server (10) transmits query code for certification to the portable terminal (30). The portable terminal (30) transmits said query code to the certification server (10) via a reader (21) or the like and also via a sales management server (23) to be certified. The certification server (10) verifies the query code to that generated in the past, and returns a result of verification and personal data required by the sales management server (23) to the sales management server (23). The query code is displayed on the portable terminal as bar code on two-dimensional code.
