Title: Current measurement apparatus
IPC: G01R15/18
Filed: 2005-03-29
Abstract: The current measurement apparatus comprises a Rogowski coil 20 comprising a wire or conductor which forms a coil 22 and returns through the coil 22 as a central conductor. The coil 22 and the central conductor are formed from a single conductor or wire and, therefore, no electrical join (for example, a solder join or crimp) is required at the end of the Rogowski coil. The wire 28 used to form the coil 22 and the central conductor 24 is insulated prior to forming the Rogowski coil. The insulated coating 30 provides better insulation between individual coils and also helps to provide a more even spacing between the coils.

Title: Packaging method and apparatus
IPC: B65B9/073
Filed: 1991-05-07
Abstract: Form-fill-seal apparatus for simultaneously packaging two streams of articles 15, a sheet of packaging material 17 being brought around the adjacent articles, a central loop portion 6 of the material being passed between the streams of articles and between outer edge portions 4, 5 of the packaging material. The packaging material (17) is heat-sealed through the combined thicknesses of its central portion and its edge portions, e.g. by rollers 27. without introducing a sealing device between the articles. Adjacent packages can be separated by cutting through the central loop portion of the packaging material which does not seal to itself, for example using a blade 29 positioned along the line of flow of the articles. The present invention enables hitherto proposed single stream form-fill-seal apparatus to be modified relatively easily to enable twin streams of packages to be produced without increasing the speed of the packaging material or the linear speed of individual articles.   <IMAGE>

Patent GB-9318628-D0 (GB)
Title: Transmission network and filter therefor
IPC: H04B3/56
Filed: 1993-09-08
Abstract: A power transmission network (40) is disclosed which includes input means (52) for the input of telecommunication signals having carrier frequencies greater than 1MHz onto the network (40), and a means for removing similar speech and/or data signals from the network. Preferably a network conditioning element (52) is used which includes a low pass filter portion for filtering out a low frequency high amplitude mains power signal, and a coupling element for input and/or removal of telecommunication signals from the network. In this way both speech and data signals can be transmitted at carrier frequencies of greater than 1MHz along a standard electricity distribution and/or transmission network which when conditioned provides a larger available spectrum per unit length of network and greater transmission capacity than previously known. The quiescent noise level of the conditioned network is also much reduced thus permitting lower signal injection levels for a given signal-to-noise ratio and a consequential reduction in spurious radiation from the network. <IMAGE>

Title: Self-registered capacitor bottom plate local interconnect scheme for dram
IPC: H01L21/8239
Filed: 1994-11-02
Abstract: A method and structure for a lower capacitor electrode (67) for a dynamic random access integrated (DRAM) circuit (50). A polysilicon gate layer (64) is formed over a thin layer of oxide (63) in a first region of a semiconductor substrate (49). Another oxide layer (62) is then formed overlying the polysilicon gate layer (64). A polysilicon layer (121) which was doped by S/D implant and includes the lower capacitor electrode (131) self-aligns and forms overlying a second region of the semiconductor substrate (100) and over the oxide layer (108) on the polysilicon gate layer (110). A nitride layer (127) forms on the lower capacitor electrode (131) portion overlying the second region. Exposed portions (132) of the polysilicon layer (121) are then oxidized. The S/D (114, 116) was formed by driving dopant from implanted second layer polysilicon (121). Portions of polysilicon (121) under the nitride layer (127) corresponding to the lower capacitor electrode (131) oxidizes at a slower rate than the exposed portions (132) of the polysilicon (121) giving rise to a birds beak structure. Such sequence of steps forms a self-aligned lower capacitor electrode (67) for a DRAM (50). <IMAGE>

Filed: 1995-09-20
Abstract: An electronic assembly (100) includes multiple solder connections (101) coupling faying surfaces (202, 204) of two substrates (106, 108). A solder connection (201) is fabricated by reflow heating of a first, less compliant solder paste (312, 314) and a compliant preform (210) so as to cause compliant material of the preform (210) to dissolve into the solder paste (312, 314). Upon solidification of the solder paste (312, 314), blended regions (520, 522), having a gradual, changing concentration of compliant material form between resulting fillets (212, 214) and the preform (210). The blended regions (520, 522) transfer temperature induced shear stresses, caused by thermal cycling of the electronic assembly (100), from the fillets (212, 214) into the compliant preform (210).

Patent GB-9913425-D0 (GB)
Title: Identification and molecular characterisation of proteins expressed in the tick salivary glands
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1999-06-09
Abstract: The invention relates to the molecular characterisation of DNA sequences which encode proteins expressed in the salivary glands of ticks, more particularly the Ixodes ricinus arthropod tick. Genes which are induced in the salivary glands of Ixodes ricinus during the slow-feeding phase of the blood meal were characterized. The cloning of these genes was carried out by setting up a substractive cDNA library by subtracting uninduced cDNAs (synthesised from mRNAs expressed in the salivary glands of unfed ticks) from induced cDNAs (synthesised from mRNAs expressed in the salivary glands at the end of the slow-feeding phase). A full-length cDNA library was set up starting from incomplete sequences deemed of interest and identified in the subtractive cDNA library. Also included in the invention are the various uses of the newly identified polynucleotides and derived polypeptides.
