Patent EP-1036002-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WILLEKE DIETER
IPC: B65B15/04
Filed: 1998-10-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a package unit of multi-layer plastic items produced from film, said items being attached to a support on one side and having almost the same outline, especially protective gloves arranged so that one is laid on top of the other. A line (6) of the support material and several lines (7, 8, 9, 10) of the film are supplied by transport devices and a welding process takes place in at least two welding stations (16, 17) situated one behind the other in the direction of movement (B) of the support line (6). The position of a plastic item produced in a first welding station (16) is determined in the following welding station (17) by the advance of the transport devices which are configured as feed rollers (18, 19). Said feed rollers (18, 19) are driven by servomotors (20, 21) which are controlled synchronously with a constant step width. The distance (A) of the welding stations (16, 17) from each other is an integral multiple of a current equidistant step width of the servomotors (20, 21). This enables e.g., a pair of gloves to be positioned perfectly on top of each other.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a mechanism and method
for supporting a substrate to be coated with a film, which enables
transporting a substrate (M) coated with a thin film, out of a film forming
apparatus (10) without damaging the substrate (M) or the thin film. A
support mechanism (20) is provided with a stage (21), a shaft member (22),
and support pins (23, 24). When the substrate (M) is placed on the stage
(21) which is held in a horizontal state, the shaft member (22) is rotated
so that the stage (21) is lifted up to a film forming position where a
substrate bearing surface (21a) of the stage becomes a substantially
vertical. After film formation has been carried out at the film forming
position, an actuator (27) is driven so as to move the support pins (23,
24) provided in the stage (21). Accordingly, cracks and chips in the
substrate (M) as well as peeling-off of the thin film can be almost
completely prevented.

Abstract: A disposable aplanatic lens for reconfiguring the cornea of an eye for
ophthalmic laser surgery includes a lens which has a flat anterior surface that
is substantially parallel to a flat aplanation surface. A skirt surrounds the
aplanation surface and extends outwardly therefrom to define a chamber.
Additionally, the skirt is formed with a groove which creates a suction channel
between the skirt and the aplanation surface in the chamber. A vacuum pump
is connected in fluid communication with the suction channel and is selectively
activated to create a partial vacuum in the channel. In its operation, the
aplanatic lens is positioned over the cornea and the pump is activated to
create the partial vacuum. Due to this partial vacuum, the cornea is drawn
into the chamber where it is urged against the aplanation surface of the lens.
The result of this is that the cornea is flattened into an aplanation
configuration which is free from spherical aberration and coma during
ophthalmic surgery.

Abstract: The switches are integral with the circuit board in the base of the telephone set. The hook on which the telephone handset rests (8) comprises a pedal which is mounted within the telephone casing to pivot about a fixed axis (9). It includes a projecting contact region (10) against which the handset (2) rests. An intermediate part of the pedal (13) comes into contact with an elastically deformable membrane zone (14) underneath which is a conductive pastille (17) which may be pressed down on to a circuit board (4). As the pedal pivots and depresses this elastically deformable membrane zone, an extension of the pedal is lifted from another elastically deformable zone (7) thus releasing a further conductive pastille (15) from connection with the circuit board.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une cellule de tension de référence à transconductance élevée comportant une première et une seconde paire de transistors bipolaires (Q1/Q2, Q3/Q4), dont au moins une présente des parties émettrices inégales, en configuration à quatre éléments croisés, avec une première résistance (R1) entre un des transistors de la première et de la seconde paires et une seconde résistance (R2) entre un des émetteurs de la seconde paire et un point commun. La cellule reçoit du courant d'une alimentation (100). La chute de tension dans la première résistance augmente avec la tension d'entrée et provoque la commutation sans transition du courant de la cellule d'un côté des quatre éléments à l'autre au point d'équilibre. Ce grand changement de courant induit par un petit changement de tension fournit la transconductance élevée de la cellule. Le point d'équilibre est dicté par les rapports des zones émettrices. Ainsi, la cellule porte une température proportionnelle à absolue (PTAT) au point d'équilibre.
