Patent EP-0263648-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BATCHELDER JOSEPH H
IPC: G09F23/00
Filed: 1987-10-02
Abstract: The present invention relates to an outdoor courtesy bench (10) and is specifically concerned with providing such a bench (10) which is constructed of a light­weight easily handled material for visibly displaying a plurality of advertising panels (74), both on the front and back of the bench. Prior art devices have been constructed of heavy, high maintenance materials which in use are subject to the accumulation of debris and the like therebeneath and which are subject to the collection of rain water and the like on the seat portion thereof and have only been adaptable to display a single advertising panel on the frontside thereof. The present invention overcomes these deficiencies by providing an outdoor courtesy bench (10) of three-piece modular construction of a lightweight material having a hollow base (11) portion to which discreet weight members (31) can be added for increased weight and stability of the bench after positioning at a selected bench site. The base (11) completely covers the ground area on which it is disposed thereby eliminating any space beneath the bench thus precluding the accumulation of any debris under the bench and provides a channeled upper seat portion which effectively disperses any rain water therefrom to prevent puddling or any accumulation of such water on the seat for fast drying and convenient use of the bench in all weather conditions.

Abstract: Processes are disclosed allowing the manufacture of integral roller door structures of any desired length and width, and comprising longitudinally juxtaposed slats (10) separated by integral hinge formations (12). Such a structure having slats of any desired length can be produced by a semi continuous moulding process in which a molten plastics material and a foaming agent are injected into a mould (14, 16, 18), the part (28) of the structure so formed being allowed to solidify before removing the solidified structure partially from the mould, then closing mould about the remaining portion of the structure, thereafter moulding a further part of the structure within the mould onto the remaining portion of the previously moulded part and repeating the cycle as often as required. A product of any desired width, measured transversely to the slats, can be produced by welding, edge-to-edge a plurality of lengths of the product produced by the moulding technique, by means of an apparatus (310 to 322) incorporating a heated knife (320) which is advanced along the gap between opposing edge faces of the lengths of moulded structures to be welded, to fuse the material of said opposing faces, and further incorporating an extruder (310) which follows the knife and injects molten plastics into said gap to unite with the plasticised opposing edge portions and form a uniform weld, the temperatures of the knife and the extrudate being independently controllable to prevent, sub­stantially, distortion of the product being produced by the welding step.

Abstract: An apparatus and a process are disclosed for automatically determining the sequence of a peptide. According to the method, the peptide to be sequenced is degraded cyclicly, arriving at a set of amino acid residues for each cycle. The amount of each amino acid residue is quantitatively measured in each set, then a background level is fit to each cycle to obtain a background fit. A measure of dispersion is then calculated for the background fit, and the measured amounts of amino acid residues in each cycle are normalized relative to the background fit. The largest normalized background-corrected residue amount in each cycle then provides a sequence assignment that can be used for further correction steps if desired. These further steps include correcting at least some of the normalized background-corrected residue amounts for lag into subsequent cycles, thereby obtaining lag-corrected background-corrected residue amounts for each cycle. These lag-corrected background-corrected residue amounts can then be used to correct the original measurements of the amino acid residues in each cycle for differences in injection quantity between cycles, thereby obtaining an injection-corrected residue amount for each cycle. The previous steps of background correction and lag correction are then performed on the injection-corrected residue amounts, and the largest such amount is determined for each cycle to arrive at a definitive sequence assignment for the peptide. An apparatus is disclosed for carrying out the above method.

Abstract: A double-enveloped lamp (10) has a shield (28) sur­rounding a light-source capsule (20) within a thick-­walled outer envelope (12) so that the lamp (10) may be safely operated without necessity of a protective fixture. In the rare event of a burst of the light-­source capsule (20), the shield (28) absorbs and dissipates a portion of the burst energy sufficient to permit the thick-walled outer envelope (12) to remain intact and contain shards and other internal parts within the lamp (10). 
     In alternate embodiments, the shield (28) may be re­inforced, such as with a wire mesh (50), or the outer envelope (12) may be reinforced, such as with a poly­mer coating, or both. A thin-walled capsule (20) may be employed in combination with a shield (28) and thick outer envelope (12). 
     A lamp (10) in accordance with the invention provides the unexpected benefits of improved luminous efficacy and better color rendering characteristics, since the presence of an optimally positioned shield (28) causes the operation of the light-source capsule (20) to be more nearly isothermal.

Abstract: Two realizations of a method are disclosed for fabricating semiconductor substrate having an S0I β -SiC on insulator structure. In the first realization, two substrates are prepared. The first substrate is silicon coated with SIO₂ ; the second substrate is silicon on which β -SiC is hetero-epitaxially grown. These substrates are bonded to each other by a heating process. During the heating process, anodic bonding may be applied. The bonded substrate is then etched or mechanically polished off from the side of the second substrate, to expose the β -SiC layer. In the second realization, β -SiC is grown on a silicon substrate. The surface of the substrate is coated with SiO₂ ; then polysilicon or poly-SiC is deposited on the surface of the β-SiC side. The substrate is then etched or mechanically polished from the side of the silicon substrate to expose the β -SiC.
