Patent EP-0912886-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PARCE J WALLACE
IPC: G01N27/447
Filed: 1997-07-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a microfluidic system for electrophoretic analysis of materials in the fields of chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, molecular biology and numerous other fields. Light absorbance signals are received by a photodetector from periodically spaced regions along a channel in the microfluidic system. The signals received by the photodetector are modulated by the movement of species bands through the channel under electrophoretic forces. By Fourier analysis, the velocity of each species band is determined, and identification of the species is made based on its electrophoretic mobility in the channel.

Patent EP-0871273-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUJITA HIROYUKI
IPC: H02H7/18
Filed: 1997-09-22
Abstract: A battery protection circuit has an overcharge detection
circuit that detects overcharge of a battery and a charge
inhibition circuit that, when overcharge is detected, inhibits
charging with a delay produced by a capacitance element. This
charge inhibition circuit can detect a short circuit in the
capacitance element that is used to produce a predetermined
delay, and, when it detects a short circuit in the capacitance
element, it inhibits charging without delay. Thus, since
charging is inhibited even when the capacitance element is short-circuited,
a power supply unit incorporating this battery
protection circuit is safer to use.

Inventor: HAUSDORF JUERGEN
IPC: B01D39/20
Filed: 1997-10-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a filter device, in particular for filtering melt-type fluids, such as polymer melts, comprising at least one filter disk (10) having two filter disk halves (12, 14) connected to each other by their edges and outwardly fitted with a filter tissue (18). The filter disk halves (12, 14), held apart by a supporting device (46), delimit a substantially free hollow area (16) between them, through which a fluid can flow freely. Inwardly, they delimit an outflow opening (44) for the melt-type filtered fluid. The invention is characterized in that the supporting device (46) has individual supporting cams (32) of substantially equal outer dimensions and arranged in several groups (34, 36, 38, 40, 42). Separated from each other, said supporting cams (32) extend radially outwards from the outflow opening (44), are rigidly connected to at least one of the two halves (12, 14), and traverse the hollow area (16) in such a way as to rest against the respective other filter disk half (14, 12). This results in a filter device which is economical to produce and which has enhanced filter performance when in operation. It is suited particularly to filtering melt-type fluids, such as polymer melts, under high pressure.

Abstract: A reclaimable release coating composition is provided which includes a blend of an
adhesion promoter and a silicone release agent which may be applied from an
aqueous solution, dispersion or emulsion. The components form regions of adhesion
promoting sites disrupted by regions of release sites on the surface of a release
backing substrate coated with the composition. The different regions are substantially
homogeneously distributed across the entirety of the release surface. When used as
a release coating for a backing to protect an adhesive, a controlled release force of a
predictable value may be obtained by providing a known weight ratio of adhesion
promoter to silicone release agent in the coating composition. A substantially linear
relationship is also provided between the release force required to peel a non-silicone
adhesive from the release coating surface, and the weight ratio of vinyl-functional
polyorganosiloxane oil to hydrogen-functional siloxane crosslinker in the release agent,
such that a consistent, uniform and repeatable release force from the surface may be
obtained.

Abstract: An automated conveyor sortation and item discharge system for sorting items of varying sizes and weights to designated output destinations along a conveyor. The system utilizes a segmented slat conveyor connected by flexible connectors. The flexible connectors form a tooth for driving the conveyor by a sprocket. The flexible connectors isolate adjacent slats, and the flexible teeth isolate the slat conveyor from the drive sprocket for a enhanced reduction in noise levels. The system may utilize a conventional belt conveyor or rigid platforms attached by flexible connectors. Removable ejection mechanisms can be attached to the individual slats of the slat conveyor or to the belt of a belt conveyor. The ejection mechanisms have self-contained drive and actuation mechanisms and may operate independently of the speed of the conveyor. The drive mechanism for the ejection mechanism may be located separately from the ejection mechanism to drive the ejection mechanism when the ejection mechanism moves adjacent to a desired discharge destination. A programmable controller may be provided to control the conveyor and the discharge of items from the conveyor by the ejection mechanisms. The system is easy to repair and operates at high speeds at reduced noise levels.
