Title: Tin based solder powder for a solder paste
Inventor: TAGUCHI TOSHIHIKO
IPC: B23K35/363
Filed: 1997-11-14
Abstract: A solder powder with an alloy composition, in weight %, of: 60-65% Sn, 0.1-0.6% Ag, 0.1-2% Sb and the balance being lead.

Patent GB-2327919-A (GB)
Title: Force limiting device for seat belt
Inventor: SMITHSON ALAN GEORGE
IPC: B60R22/28
Filed: 1998-01-28
Abstract: A force limiting device limits the force on a seat belt wearer due to activation of a seat belt pretensioner and is provided with means to selectively set the level of force limitation. The device is connected between a seat belt and an anchor point and may comprise an outer tube 20 containing a series of deformable inner tubes 121 (a, b and c) and a first disc 131 attached to a pull rod 130. In the event of a crash, movement of the seat belt wearer and activation of a seat belt pretensioner pulls the pull rod 130 and the outer tube 20 in opposite directions. Below a predetermined level of force any movement of the pull rod 130 is prevented by the contact between a first disc 131 and the inner tubes 121. Above the predetermined level of force the inner tubes 121 deform thereby limiting the maximum force applied to the seat belt wearer. The level of force limitation can be increased by rotating the pull rod 130, either manually or electrically, so that tab 132 engages a second disc 134 of a greater diameter than the first disc 131 thus increasing the force on the pull rod 130 required to deform the inner tubes 121.

Title: An optical amplifier
Inventor: LEE SEUNG-HEE
IPC: H04B10/29
Filed: 1998-10-30
Abstract: An optical amplifier comprises an optical wavelength selective coupler (21) for coupling an input optical signal (P<SP>in</SP> sig ), a gain medium (22) for amplifying a signal from the optical wavelength selective coupler (21) and outputting the amplified signal, and a pump (23) connected to the optical wavelength selective coupler (21) for causing a population inversion in the gain medium. A nonlinear mineral material (24), preferably of the third order, is provided for restricting a signal output of the gain medium (22) by emitting stimulated Brillouin scattered light, inputting it back to the gain medium (22) and saturating the gain medium when the intensity of the output from the gain medium is larger than a preset standard value. This ensures that the gain of the amplifier stays constant even if the number of channels of the input signal changes.

Title: Method and device for sparing electric energy used for hydraulic lift
Inventor: NAGEL HEINZ-DIETER
IPC: B66B1/06
Filed: 1993-02-17
Abstract: With this method and arrangement for conserving electric power for driving a hydraulic elevator, it is possible to drive the elevator car in the ascending direction with virtually constant power output at any load. The maximum rated speed in the ascending direction is selected for a load which from experience occurs most frequently. The requisite drive variable is set in accordance with this selection. The lifting speed is correspondingly reduced in the case of higher loads and correspondingly increased in the case of smaller loads. The variable lifting speed is obtained either by an adjusting pump (8) with a variable displacement volume, controlled by a pressure regulator (14), or by a displacement pump (28) with a constant displacement volume which is driven by a frequency-controlled electric motor (31) with continuously variable adaptation of the speed of the electric motor (31) as a function of the effective load present. <IMAGE>
