Patent EP-0456751-A1 (EP)
Title: Test swab and methods of making and using same.
Inventor: STONE MARCIA J
IPC: G01N21/78
Filed: 1990-02-02
Abstract: A swab (10) is impregnated with a test reagent such that a test for a specific substance can be effected by rubbing the impregnated swab over the surface to be tested and then viewing the swab for a reagent reaction. A method for testing for a metal includes impregnating a swab with a reagent, such as, for example, a rhodizonate dye reagent when testing for lead, and rubbing the swab over a surface suspected of containing the metal. If a metal is present in the surface, a reaction with the metal produces an easily detectable color on the swab tip.

Abstract: Un dispositif de séparation d'eau (10, 460D) pour la mesure d'une pression, tel qu'un système de mesure à l'aide d'un tube de pitot statique présente un passage (82, 420A, 436A, 460A) ayant une partie constituée par une pluralité de ports (41, 420B, 436B, 460E) traversants, de sorte que de l'eau à l'état liquide et de l'eau à l'état solide telles que de la neige et de la glace sont séparées de l'air atmosphérique dans le but de mesurer des paramètres tels que la température ou la pression. La séparation de l'eau, de la neige et de la glace à l'aide des ports (41, 420B, 436B, 460E) permet d'éliminer des chambres supplémentaires antérieurement prévues pour récupérer l'eau, la neige et la glace, et élimine les systèmes et soupapes d'évacuation.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un raccord permettant d'assembler des sections (3.1, 3.2) dans des angles droits ou en pente mutuellement. Un élément de raccordement présente au moins deux surfaces de contact (1) normales l'une par rapport à l'autre, à partir desquelles un moyen de guidage (5) est saillant, chacune desdites surfaces étant amenée dans une cavité se trouvant dans chaque section (3.1, 3.2), afin de produire une articulation à torsion résistante entre chaque section (3.1, 3.2) et l'élément de raccordement. Un ou plusieurs des moyens de guidage (5) présentent des surfaces de contact en pente à un angle donné (a) par rapport à la normale, jusqu'à la surface de contact (1), ce qui donne au moyen de guidage (5) une forme conique à partir de ladite surface de contact (1).

Abstract: The combing machine possesses a feed gripper (1), to which a lap (W) to be combed is fed, and a rotatable round-comb roller (11) carrying at least one round-comb segment (13). The closed gripper (1) provides the round-comb segment (13) with a fibre tuft from the lap (W) for combing out. Arranged after the round-comb segment (13) is a tearing-off gripper (15, 16) which is carried by the round-comb roller (11) and which receives the combed-out fibre tuft, clamps it and tears it off from the lap (W) located in the opened gripper (1). The tearing-off gripper (15, 16) then lays the fibre tuft onto a uniformly movable combed-sliver transport surface (22). The successive fibre tufts are deposited on the transport surface (22) so as to overlap one another in an imbricated manner in order to form a combed fleece. The combing machine requires no tearing-off cylinders rotating to and fro, and the gripper (1) executes only small to-and-fro movements. High working speeds are therefore possible. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Optical waveguide paths are formed under the surface of a glass substrate by a method comprising (a) forming by ion-exchange a dopant ion path on a first substrate surface, (b) applying an electrode to the second surface, (c) contacting the first surface with a molten salt bath, and (d) applying an electrical field across the substrate to drive the dopant ions deeper into the substrate. The current resulting from high fields can overheat the substrate, thereby causing substrate warping and burying of paths to uneven depths. One aspect of the invention involves cooling the substrate by flowing the molten salt along the first surface of the substrate at a sufficient rate of flow to adequately decrease its temperature and by rapidly flowing the furnace atmosphere over the surface of the substrate. A further aspect of the invention involves initially applying a voltage V i  across the substrate, allowing the current to increase to a predetermined level I m , and maintaining the flow of current at the predetermined level I m  by decreasing the applied voltage at a rate necessarry to maintain the current at level I m . The electrical field remains for a predetermined period of time to bury the ion path a predetermined depth.

Abstract: A self-resetting overcurrent protection element (A) uses an element body (8) made up of a mixture of polymers and carbon black grafted with polymers. A resilient sheathing material (9) covering the element body (8) permits free expansion of the element body to permit the resistance of the overcurrent protection element to increase substantially in response to Joule's heating from high current. The sheathing materials (9) preferably are made of elastic epoxy resins or silicone resins that allow significant expansion of the element body (8) at the time of overcurrent protection, thus increasing the ratio of resistance in the element between an overcurrent state and a normal operating state.

Abstract: Apparatus for producing a hypoxic gas mixture having a higher nitrogen-to-oxygen ratio than atmospheric air has a diaphragm compressor feeding air under pressure to an oxygen-depleting unit having a perforate tube extending axially of a cylindrical chamber having an outlet in one side. The annular space between the perforate tube and the wall of the chamber is filled with axially extending hollow fibers of poly-4-methyl-penthene-1. Ends of the chamber are closed except for the interiors of the hollow fibers which are open to the atmosphere. The walls of the hollow fibers are more permeable to oxygen than to nitrogen so that part of the oxygen escapes through open ends of the hollow fibers, thereby increasing the nitrogen-to-oxygen content of the gas.
