Title: Method and device for testing printed circuit boards with a parallel tester
Inventor: ROTHAUG UWE
IPC: G01R31/02
Filed: 2001-08-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for testing printed circuit boards with a parallel tester.  The printed circuit boards comprise strip conductors whose end points are embodied as printed circuit board testing points which can be contacted during testing.  The method comprises the following steps;  testing a printed circuit board with a parallel tester, whereby the printed circuit board testing points of the printed circuit board are brought into contact with the contact elements of the parallel tester;  determining the printed circuit board testing points which are either judged to be unable to be put correctly into contact with the parallel tester or deemed to be basically unable to be put into contact with the parallel tester;  and re-measuring the printed circuit board test points judged to be unable to be put correctly into contact or the non contactable printed circuit board test points and also the strip conductors connected to said points by means of a device which is independent from the contact elements in the parallel tester.

Abstract: Air turn (10) for supporting and optionally drying a web (W), comprising an arcuate surface (10A) having a plurality of apertures (3)(32)(33)(34)(35) formed therein. Pressurized gas is supplied to the air turn plenum, and exits through a plurality of apertures (3)(32)(33)(34)(35) to form a cushion of air to float the web (W). Turn angles of about 90 degrees to about 300 degrees with no contact to the web (W) are achievable with the apparatus (10) of the present invention. The unique semi-circular design allows for non-contact flotation and turning of a tensioned web with low pressure requirements, reduced air spillage and reduced noise level. Multi-chamber turns (50A)(50B)(50C) can be used with each section having independently controlled pressurized gas.

Abstract: The path selection and wavelength assignment to a selected path are
performed by mapping the wavelength reach to the demand distribution (agile
reach) resulting in a 50-60% increase in the network reach. The network reach is
further increased (about 2.2 times) when on-line measured performance data are
used for path selection and wavelength assignment. The connections may be
engineered/upgraded individually, by optimizing the parameters of the entire path
or of a regenerator section of the respective path. The upgrades include
changing the wavelength, adjusting the parameters of the regenerator section,
controlling the launch powers, mapping a certain transmitter and/or receiver to
the respective wavelength, selecting the wavelengths on a certain link so as to
reduce cross-talk, increasing wavelength spacing, etc.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for stabilizing a tire building drum (120,220, 310)
wherein the tire building drum has two ends, is permanently supported at a
single cantilever support end (125), and the remaining end is a free end (123,
223). The method comprises providing a free end support (140, 240, 340)
engaged with the free end to stabilize the tire building drum by restricting lateral
movement of the free end; and freeing the free end by temporarily retracting the
free end support when desired, e.g. to enable application of annular tire
components on the tire building drum (120, 220, 320), or to enable removal of a
built tire from the tire building drum. Preferably, the free end support allows
rotation of the tire building drum while the free end support is engaged with the
free end. A preferred embodiment uses overtravel of actuator linkages stopped
against an extension stop to lock the free end support in place, engaged with
the free end, to stabilize the tire building drum without requiring continued
power input.

Abstract: A GE-PON (Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network) system and media access
control method for the same are disclosed. In the GE-PON system, by employing MAC
attributes of the gigabit Ethernet frames, an OLT (Optical Line Termination) transmits a
downstream window containing both a control frame having timeslot position and size
information in association with at least two ONUs and Ethernet frames to an ODN (Optical
Distribution Network). The OLT analyzes contents of RAUs in an upstream window
transmitted from the ONUs in a TDMA method and received from the ODN, and permits
timeslot position and size corresponding to each of the ONUs. A plurality of ONUs, connected
to the ODN, have their respective timeslot position and size allocated in response to their
respective information contained in the control frame of the downstream window. RAU frames
are transmitted having queue information and Ethernet frames associated with the allocated
timeslots. As a result, by the above MAC structure of the GE-PON system, the OLT can be
quickly intercommunicated with a plurality of ONUs.

Abstract: An injection moulded, plastics material cap 1 for a screw top bottle has a top
and a skirt with an anti-tamper band 2 connected to the skirt at a tear-off line by links
3. On the inside of the top of the cap, a depending annular ridge 10 is provided. Its
inside diameter is such that it abuts and seals on the outside diameter of the distal end
of neck of the bottle. Also on the inside of the cap, inside the ridge 10, is moulded, a
forked feature having an inner limb 12 which extends generally downwards with an
outwards bias, and an outer limb 13 which extends generally outwards with
downwards bias. The inner limb is dimensioned to fit inside the mouth at the neck of
the bottle, sealingly engaging it, whilst the outer limb is dimensioned to abut the end
of the neck, also sealingly engaging it when the cap is screwed tight. 
     On the inside of the anti-tamper band, upwardly and inwardly extending
tongues 21 are provided. Adjacent ones of these are interconnected by webs 20 in the
form of invert V folds. The folds extend up and out (radially) from the tongues. The
latter have ribs 22 on their outer faces. Above the proximal ends of the tongues, a
ridge 23 is provided around the inside of the band, at a position such that the ribs abut
it when the tongues are pushed up, as on screwing of the cap onto the bottle. The
combined action of the folded webs 20 and the resilience of the tongues 21
themselves causes them to spring inwards when pushed outwards during fitting of the
cap to the bottle. The abutment of the ribs 22 against the ridge 23 limits the outwards
movement of the tongues.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif microfluidique comprenant plusieurs structures de microcanaux qui présentent un port d'entrée, un port de sortie et, entre les deux, une sous-structure comportant une fonction fluidique. Ce dispositif a un axe de symétrie autour duquel les structures de microcanaux sont disposées sous forme d'au moins deux zones annulaires concentriques. S'agissant d'un port d'entrée et d'un port de sortie de cette structure de microcanaux, le port d'entrée est généralement plus proche de l'axe de symétrie que n'est le port de sortie. Chaque structure de microcanaux comprend une sous-structure qui peut retenir un liquide lorsque le disque est tourné autour de l'axe et/ou les ports d'entrée étant positionnés séparément des voies, les résidus liquides laissant ouverts les ports de sortie de déchets traversent la surface du disque lorsque ce dernier est tourné. Pour les structures de microcanaux d'une zone annulaire, les sous-structures correspondantes sont sensiblement à la même distance radiale tandis que les sous-structures correspondantes des structures de microcanaux de différentes zones annulaires sont à différentes distances radiales. L'invention concerne également plusieurs autres sous-structures. Les sous-structures sont principalement adaptées au transport d'aliquots liquides ayant une tension superficielle > 5 mN/m avec une force centrifuge.
