Title: Process for the production of a surface structure on impression cylinders for offset printing machines
IPC: G03F7/30
Filed: 1991-09-24
Abstract: In order to structure a ground metallic material surface of an impression cylinder (1) electroplated with hard chromium, a thin layer of alkali-resistant negative resist material is first applied to the metallic hard-chromium surface of the impression cylinder (1), a positive screen film is then brought into contact with the alkali-resistant negative resist layer and the latter is irradiated through the film using an ultraviolet light source. In this process, subareas of the alkali-resistant negative resist layer are cured by the light passing through the transparent parts of the film, then unirradiated parts of the negative resist layer are removed with an organic solvent developer and, finally, the hard-chromium layer uncovered after the development process is anodically hollowed out electrolytically in cup fashion through the openings of the alkali-resistant negative resist layer left behind as a network using sodium hydroxide solution. The hydroxide solution is sprayed on through a narrow iron-screen hollow cathode (9) arranged along the impression cylinder (1) at a short distance from the material surface.

Patent EP-0523324-A3 (EP)
IPC: H05B6/80
Filed: 1992-04-06
Abstract: In the support of heating devices, e.g. of a grill heating element inside a baking oven, it has to be taken into consideration that very great temperature variations from 20 DEG C to over 500 DEG C occur during pyrolytic self-cleaning operation, associated with considerable material expansions and great forces at the connection points between heating element and baking oven. For microwave operation, it is important that there are no leaks at the fastening points and that none arise as a result of temperature loading. According to the invention, there is provided as fastening element a bolt which extends through the oven wall and which is on the one hand supported on the metal outside of the oven wall and on which on the other hand, inside the baking oven, a bearing element for the heating device and a bracing element are secured, which bracing element is braced with the bolt in a contacting manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An automatic system for cleaning a thermal inkjet 
printhead (46). A thermal inkjet cartridge (10) and 
service station (62) are provided within a printer unit 
(50). The service station (62) is directly beneath the 
cartridge (10) when it is not printing. Attached to the

Filed: 1995-01-23
Abstract: A thin film sensor element includes a sensor holding
substrate having an opening part and a multilayer film adhered
thereon at least consisting of an electrode film A, an electrode
film B having (100) plane orientation, and a piezoelectic
dielectric oxide film present between the electrode film A and
the electrode film B. As a result, a thin film sensor element
which is small, light, highly accurate, and inexpensive can be
attained which can be used for an acceleration sensor element and
a pyroelectric infrared sensor element. 
     On the surface of a flat plate KBr substrate 1, a rock-salt
crystal structure oxide of a conductive NiO 12 is formed by
a plasma MOCVD method whose vertical direction is crystal-oriented
to 〈100〉 direction against the substrate surface. By
means of a sputtering method, a PZT film 4 is formed by an
epitaxial growth on that surface, and a Ni-Cr electrode film 15
is formed thereon. Next, the multilayer film structure is
reversed and adhered to a sensor substrate 7 having an opening
part with an adhesive 20. After a connection electrode 19 is
connected, the whole structure is washed with water, thereby
removing the KBr substrate 1.

Title: Pipe branch element.
Inventor: HOEHNE FALK
IPC: F16L41/03
Filed: 1995-04-19
Abstract: The pipe connection provides a slim cross connection for heating systems and is mounted behind a skirting board for a compact fitting. A first flow path (2) runs directly through the connection while a second flow path (4) is offset vertically to run through the connection. An upper connection (6) is internally connected to the second flow path by the shaping of the internal walls of the connection, and thus provides a compact cross connection. The first flow path can also have an upper connection with a cross flow at right angles to the through flows. The spacing of the upper connections are matched to size of the control valve, e.g., for a radiator connection and the whole unit is shaped to be secured by pipe clips. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0683136-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HILL MICHAEL RAPHAEL HUGH
IPC: B01D61/48
Filed: 1995-04-26
Abstract: Effluent streams from photographic processes contain
both silver and thiosulphate ions, and because of the
formation of complex anions it is difficult to remove the
silver. The silver may be removed using a cell (12) with
a cathode (24) exposed to the effluent liquid, and an
anode (25) separated from the liquid by a barrier (22)
permeable at least to anions. Some silver sulphide is
formed electrochemically at the cathode (24); at the
anode (25) water is electrolysed and becomes acidic, so
the complex anions migrating through the barrier (22)
generate silver sulphide chemically. The resulting
silver sulphide precipitate is separated from the liquid
by a filter (14).

Patent EP-0742663-A3 (EP)
Title: Messaging systems
Inventor: WILSON JEFFREY
IPC: H04M3/38
Filed: 1996-05-13
Abstract: In a messaging system such as a voice message system, message
retrieval is restricted to authorised users by the need to dial a PIN following the
telephone number for access to the system. 
     For environments in which no post dial signalling is available, such as
when pulse dialling is used, the system recognises a specific prefix to the
number being dialled, and allows reception of additional dialled digits, which
constitute the PIN, before generation of a "dialled digits complete" signal.
The received PIN associated with the user's number is then compared
with data held in a store (20), and message retrieval is enabled only if the
comparison is positive. 
     A facility may be provided for users to change their PINs. 
     The additional digits may instead be used for transmission to called
parties, the digits signifying corresponding standard phrases.

Title: Cancellation of distortion components in a fiber optic link with feed-forward linearization
Inventor: GOPALAKRISHNAN GANESH K
IPC: H04N7/22
Filed: 1997-01-10
Abstract: A phase modulator is provided in an externally
modulated, feed-forward linearized, analog cable
television (CATV) link for reducing fiber-induced
composite second order (CSO) distortion components. The
system is compatible with existing commercially available
modulators. CSO distortion is caused, in part, by self-phase
modulation of the transmitted signal in the fiber
optic link. The problem is particularly prevalent when
data is transmitted at a wavelength other than the minimum
dispersion wavelength of the fiber. Moreover, CSO
distortion increases with the length of the fiber optic
link and with the optical intensity modulation index of
the primary modulator of the link. The phase modulator
modulates an optical signal which is provided to the
primary modulator in accordance with an optical phase
modulation index k of an RF data signal to be transmitted.
The phase modulator is effective with fiber optic links of
varying lengths which carry amplitude-modulated vestigial
sideband (AM-VSB) data signals such as cable television
(CATV) signals.
