Filed: 1997-11-21
Abstract: A contaminant detector including a light source for emitting light of a wavelength
with peak emission corresponding to that of "blue" light or to that of light of even lower
wavelength. Light is emitted through an arrangement containing a liquid sample having a
given contaminant, and a sensing arrangement on the other side of the liquid sample
detects the amount of light passing through the liquid sample. The measured light is
converted into a value indicative of the relative presence of the given contaminant in the
liquid sample. It is contemplated that other types of light can be used, particularly if the
color of the light is matched, or even approximately matched, with that portion of the
liquid sample that is not to be measured (i.e. the "background" or "non-contaminant"
portion of the liquid).

Filed: 2003-11-03
Abstract: An apparatus for and method of operating a thermal actuator (15)
for a micromechanical device, especially a liquid drop emitter such as an ink jet
printhead, is disclosed. The disclosed thermal actuator comprises a base element
(10) and a cantilevered element (20) including a thermo-mechanical bender
portion (25) extending from the base element to a free end tip. The thermo-mechanical
bender portion includes a barrier layer (23) constructed of a dielectric
material having low thermal conductivity, a first deflector layer (22) constructed
of a first electrically resistive material having a large coefficient of thermal
expansion, and a second deflector layer (24) constructed of a second electrically
resistive material having a large coefficient of thermal expansion wherein the
barrier layer is bonded between the first and second deflector layers. The thermo-mechanical
bender portion further has a base end (28) adjacent the base element
and a free end (29) adjacent the free end tip. A first heater resistor (26) is formed
in the first deflector layer and adapted to apply heat energy having a first spatial
thermal pattern which results in a first deflector layer (22) base end temperature
increase, ΔT 1b , that is greater than a first deflector layer free end temperature
increase, ΔT 1f . A second heater resistor (27) is formed in the second deflector
layer and adapted to apply heat energy having a second spatial thermal pattern
which results in a second deflector layer (24) base end temperature increase, ΔT 2b 
that is greater than a second deflector layer free end temperature increase, ΔT 2f .
Application of an electrical pulse to either the first or second heater resistors
causes deflection of the cantilevered element, followed by restoration of the
cantilevered element to an initial position as heat diffuses through the barrier layer
and the cantilevered element reaches a uniform temperature. For liquid drop
emitter embodiments, the thermal actuator resides in a liquid-filled chamber that
includes a nozzle for ejecting liquid. Application of electrical pulses to the heater
resistors is used to adjust the characteristics of liquid drop emission. The barrier
layer exhibits a heat transfer time constant τ B . The thermal actuator is activated by
a heat pulses of duration τ P  wherein τ P  < ½ τ B .

Abstract: An optimized engine charge air-cooling system for an internal combustion engine includes a charge air cooler side mounted along an outboard side of each engine cylinder bank of the engine. The charge air coolers extend the full length of the cylinder banks. The charge air coolers each include a housing, a core, an air inlet and an air outlet. The charge air cooler inlets are connected to an outlet of a compressed air source, such as a turbocharger, through cooler intake headers. The charge air cooler outlets are connected through cooler outlet headers to cylinder intake ports of cylinders in the cylinder banks. The design of the charge air-cooling system allows for highly effective cooling of charge air with a corresponding small drop in charge air pressure. These features combine to achieve the result of decreased engine nitrogen oxides (NOx) production and increased engine fuel economy.
