Title: Viscosity measurement utilising piezo-electric bars
Inventor: BUCHANAN NIGEL ALEXANDER
IPC: G01N11/16
Filed: 1998-09-17
Abstract: Piezo bar or bars (3) are used to measure the viscosity of the fluids in which they are immersed (11) for example the Piezo bar (3) fixed within a housing (2) has a single input voltage pulse applied. The instant the pulse ends any output voltage induced by the diminishing oscillations of the Piezo bar (3) is used in conjunction with the temperature sensed by sensor (9) to calculate the viscosity of fluid. In a further example opposing Piezo bars (3a and 3b) on the same plane with a set gap (5) between are internally fixed within the housing (2). An alternating current is applied to the driver Piezo bar (3a) the driven Piezo bar (3b) assimilate this movement according to the amount of shear effect of the fluid (11) within the set gap (5). The Piezo bars (3a and 3b) can also remotely operate discs (18 and 19) or tubes (20 and 21) where the only a small set gap (5) exists between the discs (5a and 5b) or tubes yet the shear effect is over a greater area.

Title: Threaded pipe connection
Inventor: SCHORN-GILSON ALFONS
IPC: F16L19/028
Filed: 1998-09-23
Abstract: A threaded pipe connection for easily deformable and thinned walled metal pipes comprises a connecting member 1, a nut 8, a supporting ring 14, a sealing ring 28 and a pipe 20. The connecting member 1 and nut 8 have mating threads 7,10 and are threaded together. The pipe 20 is provided with a bulge 23 which is clamped in place between two conical surfaces comprising either a conical bore 13 of the nut 8 and a conical supporting face 18 of the supporting ring 14 or a conical bore (4", figure 3) of the connecting member (1 ", figure 3) and a conical supporting face (18", figure 3) of the supporting ring (14", figure 3). The supporting ring 14 is further provided with a holding face 17 and a stop face 19 which abut an end of the connecting member and the conical bore of the nut respectively. These act to limit the axial proximity of the nut and connecting member and thereby prevents damage to the pipe. The connection is further provided with a sealing ring 28 which may or may not be joined to the supporting ring.

Patent GB-2332878-A (GB)
Title: Printer with inductive power and communication to accessory
Inventor: DINA DANIEL
IPC: G03G15/00
Filed: 1998-12-17
Abstract: An electronic printer or fax (101) having wireless power and communications connections (105A and 105P) to an accessory (103) to which it is adjacent and with which it is generally in contact during operation is disclosed. Communications between the printer (101) and the accessory (103), instead of being handled via a cable connection, are achieved using a two-way, infrared (IR) communications link (409 and 509). Operational power is supplied to the accessory via inductive coupling between a pair of adjacently positioned coils (200P and 200A) rather than directly through power cables. As inductive coupling works efficiently only over very short distances, the accessory (103) is equipped with a standby battery (106) power so that the accessory may be temporarily separated from the printer (e.g., in order to eliminate media jams) without loss of accessory status data. When the accessory (103) is once again positioned immediately adjacent the printer (101), inductive coupling reassumes the role of power provision. The invention eliminates problems associated with cable connections, such as the inadvertent disconnection of a power or communication cable, damage to connectors over the operational lifetime of the printer and its accessory, as well as manufacturing and stocking costs associated with the connector cables.

Title: Apparatus for operating swinging-sliding doors of passenger-carrying vehicles particularly vehicles fixed onto rail
Inventor: DILCHER DIETMAR
IPC: E05F15/646
Filed: 1992-10-05
Abstract: A device for moving a swinging and sliding door in a mass-transit car, especially a car that travels along a track. Each panel of the door slides lengthwise along a guide element. The guide element moves as part of a four-point articulation across the plane of the panel. The lengthwise motion of the leaf is coordinated with its transverse motion by a rail. The rail is fastened to the doorframe. Guide means are fastened to the panel and engage the rail. A drive mechanism on the panel directs force toward the guide element. As the drive mechanism (20-22, 30 & 31, or 40 & 4n1) reacts it exerts torque on an expansion element (25, 35, or 45) between the guide element (3) and a supporting component (25.2, 35.2, or 45.2) attached to the doorframe (16). The torque produces a force substantially normal to the guide element. The force generates the transverse motion.

Title: Laser processing method and device therefor
Inventor: MORITA MITSUHIRO
IPC: H01L21/268
Filed: 1986-01-22
Abstract: PURPOSE:To contrive improvement in productivity of the title processing by a method wherein a positioning mechanism is calibrated whenever occasion demands based on the position of traces, formed on the material to be processed by laser irradiation, which is observed with the positioning mechanism. CONSTITUTION:A positioning operation is performed by properly shifting an X-Y table 1 with a control part 10 in such a manner that the optical axis of an objective lens will be coincidence with the wiring structure and the like, to be cut by fusing, which is in the prescribed positional relation with a positioning mark. The error between the actual position of irradiation of a laser 7 and the positioning point given by a white light positioning mechanism 9 is detected by the observation of the while light positioning mechanism 9, and the point of positioning given by the white light positioning mechanism 9 is calibrated by the amount of said error. As a result, the generation of an error by aging can be prevented, and the relatively high detection rate of positioning mark by white light positioning mechanism 9 and a light positioning accuracy of irradiation position of the laser beam 7 can be obtained simultaneously.
