Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for producing polymeric particles with pre-designed size, shape, morphology and composition, and more particularly the present invention uses a microfluidic polymerization reactor for producing same. The present invention disclosed herein provides a process for producing polymer particles with pre-selected shapes. The method includes injecting a first fluid comprising a polymerizable constituent with a controlled flow rate into a microfluidic channel and injecting a second fluid with a controlled flow rate into the microfluidic channel in which the second fluid mixes with the first fluid, the second fluid being immiscible with the first fluid so that the first fluid forms into droplets in the microfluidic channel. The microfluidic channel has pre-selected dimensions to give droplets of pre-selected size, morphology and shape. The microfluidic channel is sufficiently long so that the droplets have a sufficiently long residence time in the channel so that they polymerize or otherwise harden into droplets of pre-selected size and shape.

Abstract: In order to reduce mutual interferences between POLMUX (PMS1) and (PMS2) signals, the inventive method consists in transmitting said signals with differed to each other carrying signals (TS1x, TS1y; TS2x, TS2y), thereby making it possible to obtain the circular polarisation of each resulting POLMUX signal (PMS1, PMS2). Each second POLMUX (PMS2) signal is transmissible with an opposite circular polarisation. In order to reduce also interferences when only one modulated data signal (PS2x, PS2y) is transmitted through a POLMUX channel, a polarisation plane of modulated data signals (PS2x, PS2y) of each second POLMUX (K2) channel is turned at 45~. In a variant, polarisation multiplex signals (PMS1, PMS2, ...) are produces and the resulting polarisations thereof in adjacent channels are perpendicular to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to an auxiliary device and a method for finishing and calibrating preforms (10) that are removed from a multiple tool in an unstable shape, the calibration process being performed with the aid of compressed air immediately after removing and withdrawing the preforms (10) from the multiple tool. Nipples that can be inserted into the preforms (30) are provided with expandable press rings or sealing rings (56) in order to seal the interior of the blow-molded part of the preforms (10). The compressed air is introduced via the nipples (30), the sealing process being performed by radially expanding the press rings or sealing rings (56) in analogy to the closing process of thermoses, thus protecting the preforms (10) from adverse forces.  The sealing point can be randomly selected in the transition zone from the threaded part to the blow-molded part of the preforms (10). The invention allows the interior of the blow-molded part (43) to be optimally sealed without affecting the form stability and dimensional stability of the preforms (10).  In special types of preforms, the areas that are not supported in the cooling sleeves can be preconsolidated on the outside by means of cool air from the moment the preforms are transferred to the removal sleeves or cooling sleeves.

Title: Positive displacement variable speed transmission with dual motion drive gears
Inventor: LEE GARY D
IPC: F16H37/16
Filed: 2007-06-07
Granted: 2011-07-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to transmission systems and changing gear ratios within power transmission systems. In particular, the present invention relates to a positive displacement variable speed transmission. The transmission includes one or more drive gears which orbit, rotate, and which translate radially to change the size of the orbital path. The change in the orbital path increases or decreases the linear velocity of the drive gears which engage one or more driven gears and transfer the changed linear velocity in the form of a gear ratio change. The driven gears are also radially movable and movement of the driven gears is synchronized with the radial movement of the drive gears to maintain substantially constant engagement between gear ratios change. Thus, as the drive and driven gears can slide or step radially to any location within a range of positions, gear ratio changes can be made in very small increments.
