Inventor: DRIESSEN MARCELLIS HENDRIKUS J
IPC: B29C45/17
Filed: 1996-01-10
Abstract: A method is described for injection-moulding a product by means of the so-called
gas-injection method. A special feature of the method is that in addition to the forming
of a first gas volume (41) and a second gas volume (42) in a product cavity (10) by injecting
gas via a first gas inlet (51) and a second gas inlet (52), an alternating pressure difference is
applied between said gas volumes such that the magnitude of the gas volumes alternately
increases and decreases in order to control the distribution of material injected.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel composite capable of rapid volume change,
the use of said composite as well as an actuator comprising the composite. 
     Thus, the invention relates to a composite comprising one conjugated polymer capable
of changing redox-potential upon the onset of an electrical or chemical stimulus,
and an ion-sensitive gel capable of changing volume, the polymer and the gel
being morphologically interrelated, and wherein the volume change of the gel is in
response to the change of the redox-potential of the conjugated polymer, and 50 %
of the total volume change of the composite is achieved within a period of at most 5
minutes from the onset of the stimulus to the conjugated polymer. 
     The composite is capable of rapid volume change, may for example be used in an
actuator in which the composite is controllable by electrical and/or chemical stimuli,
and the strength of the composite is important. 
     Further the invention relates to the use of a composite for the production of an actuator
and an actuator comprising a composite as well as a process of causing a
volume change in a composite comprising a conjugated polymer capable of changing
redox-potential and an ion-sensitive gel capable of changing volume.

Abstract: The invention aims to provide a gas sensor whose casing includes at
least two cylindrical members to be welded together and whose structure
hardly suffers a weld defect arising without requiring the practice of
considerably strict dimensional control of the cylindrical members. 
     A gas sensor 1 includes a casing 10 which covers a sensing element 2
and includes two cylindrical members. The cylindrical members are axially
disposed in such a manner as to overlap each other. Examples of the
cylindrical members are a protector 11 (outer member) and a protector
attachment portion 9a (inner member) of a metallic shell 9. A diameter-reduced
portion 81 is circumferentially formed on the outer member 11
through. for example. caulking. A weld zone 83 is circumferentially formed
at the diameter-reduced portion 81 so as to weld the outer member 11 onto the
inner member 9a. Through formation of the diameter-reduced portion 81, a
gap between the outer member 11 and the inner member 9a as measured at the
position of the weld zone is reduced. thereby improving adhesion
therebetween. As a result. possibility of a weld defect arising can be
suppressed. Further, attainment of a good welded state does not require the
practice of dimensional control of the inner and outer members; particularly,
strict dimensional control of the difference between the bore diameter of the
outer member and the outside diameter of the inner member. Hence.
production efficiency or yield of gas sensors is improved.

Abstract: A film is extruded from plastic material by an extruder. The film is orientated after extrusion. Material is mixed into the plastic so that when the plastic film is stretched, cavitation bubbles are formed in the material particles mixed into the plastic. During the orientation, gas is arranged to the plastic film under high pressure so that the gas diffuses in the cavitation bubbles and causes overpressure in them. Thus, it is possible to make a thin foamed film with a foaming degree over 70%.

Abstract: A method for focusing light comprising the steps of: (1) projecting at least one pulse of light onto a surface of the skin of a patient; (2) collecting at least a portion of the light that is reflected from the skin of the patient; (3) projecting the collected, reflected light onto a detector; and (10) adjusting the projection of the pulsed light onto the surface of the skin of the patient in such a manner that the signal projected onto the detector is optimized. When the pulsed light is properly focused, e.g., when it is characterized by the best focus, it can be used to provide energy to form an opening in the skin of the patient. When more than one pulse of light is required to form an opening in the skin of the patient, aligning the light prior to each pulse will improve the efficiency of formation of the opening.

On utilise un solvant de faible masse moléculaire de manière à permettre d'abaisser le point de fusion suffisamment pour créer une mousse de carbone à une température convenable. Le solvant est ensuite extrait sous l'effet de la chaleur et/ou d'un vide et, ensuite, le brai revient à un point de fusion élevé approximativement supérieur à 350 °C. On peut ensuite chauffer le brai ou le carboniser sans étape de stabilisation oxydante. On peut aussi utiliser initialement pour le moussage un matériau de brai à mésophase solvaté.

Abstract: A method of and an apparatus for making twisted electrical cable, such as 600 volt secondary distribution (UD) cable, and the twisted cable product are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a first plurality of stationary payoff reels each wound with a length of stranded bare wire conductor. The stranded conductors are simultaneously payed off the reels to a pay out accumulator for accumulating a portion of the stranded conductors during replacement of spent pay out reels. An extruder apparatus arranged downstream of the accumulator applies a plastic insulation material to a respective stranded conductor as it passes through the extruder. A cooling trough through which water is flowed cools the plastic insulation. A take-up accumulator arranged downstream of the cooling trough accumulates a portion of each insulated conductor during changeover of the take-up arranged downstream of the take-up accumulator. The take-up is rotated about a first axis to twist each insulated conductor about its longitudinal axis and to simultaneously twist the insulated conductors about one another to form a twisted electrical cable. The take-up is also rotated about a second axis for taking up the twisted electrical cable. The twisted electrical cable product made according to the method of the invention comprises a plurality of insulated conductors each twisted about its longitudinal axis by the apparatus of the invention and twisted about one another.

Abstract: The component-based source code generator uses a set of generation instructions and a set of parameters to generate nearly-repetitive and repetitive source code. The developer specifies to the code generator what to generate through the use of generation instructions. Within a set of generation instructions, the developer specifies the target components and the code that should be generated. The generation process uses information contained in the modeling tool. Consequently, the generated code never has to be modified directly by the developer, greatly reducing maintenance time, minimizing errors, and improving code consistency.
