Title: Reducing power consumption in a peristaltic pump mechanism
Inventor: MOSSMAN JOHN A
IPC: F04B43/08
Filed: 2000-12-21
Abstract: The present invention utilizes a torque compensation system and a power control feedback system to reduce power consumption in a linear peristaltic pump. The linear peristaltic infusion pump includes an electric motor, which is connected to a cam shaft with multiple cams positioned thereon. Numerous elongate fingers cooperate with the cams to partly occlude an intravenous drip tube at multiple points along the tube's path. A torque compensation system and power feedback control system reduce the overall power consumption of the pump. A torque compensation cam positioned on the cam shaft, in combination with a torque compensation cam follower and a mechanical spring assist the motor while it is working against a rising cam follower. The power feedback control system comprises a controller which optimally adjusts the power supplied to the drive means so as to reduce overall power consumption of the pump.

Title: Curtain drawing device
Inventor: GRUTZNER HANS
IPC: A47H3/08
Filed: 1985-02-05
Abstract: A tensioning device for use with an endless traverse which is longitudinally adjustable in both directions responsive to a rotational drive. The rotational drive includes two driving gears which are each selectively coupled with a drive shaft so that when one of the driving gears is positively driven, the other driving gear is permitted to rotate freely. The traverse changes from one driving gear to the other by passing from between a pair of overlying side walls and over a flange. Elongation resulting from strain of the traverse is continuously led out of the system so that blocking or braking of the traverse is avoided. The tensioning device is especially suitable for the operation of strip curtains or conventional curtains, as well as for curtain systems with large and heavy traverses.

Title: Ophthalmic glass/plastic laminated lens having photochromic characteristics and method of assembly thereof
Inventor: ACE RONALD S
IPC: G02B3/00
Filed: 1985-10-22
Abstract: A composite glass/plastic ophthalmic lens consists of a thin layer (40) of glass, preferably photochromic, adhered to the front of a plastic layer (30), by a highly elastic adhesive (36). The rear surface (42) of the glass (40) has a different radius than the front surface (32) of the plastic (30) so that the space between the lenses forms a tapered gap which is filled by the elastic adhesive. The edge thickness of the elastic adhesive is sufficient to insure that the increase in diameter of the plastic layer with respect to the diameter of the glass layer due to differences in the thermal expansion characteristic of the glass and the plastic will not damage the lens even over a temperature range > 300°F (170°C).The glass layer (40) is shaped to have a power which compensates for differences in the index of refraction of the glass (40), adhesive (36) and plastic layer (30), and which compensates for the optical powers produced by the tapered adhesive layer, so that the composite lens can be finished to prescription as though it were an all-plastic lens.

Title: Method of producing thin, poorly soluble coatings
Inventor: FISCHER CHRISTIAN-HERBERT
IPC: C23C26/00
Filed: 2000-04-06
Abstract: For making ceramic or oxidic layers (CL/OL) on substrates (S), the method according to the invention therefore provides that following application (I) and drying (II) of a suitable precursor (P) the formed precursor layer (PLD) is gassed (III) with a moist reactant gas (RG) for conversion into a corresponding hydroxide or complex layer (HL) and then thermally treated (IV) for forming a ceramic or oxidic layer (CL/OL). For the alternative production of other chalcogenidic layers of increased material conversion additional gassing is carried out with a reactant gas containing chalcogen hydrogen. Metallic layers may alternatively be made by use of a reducing reactant gas. The methods in accordance with the invention may be used wherever surfaces, even those of shaded structures, must be protected or modified or provided with functional layers, particularly in solar and materials technology.
