Title: Injection molding nozzle having circumferentially spaced conductive probes
Inventor: GELLERT JOBST ULRICH
IPC: B29C45/27
Filed: 1990-02-09
Granted: 1994-05-04
Abstract: An injection molding multi-gate nozzle (10) with a central portion (16) having a central melt bore (74) and a spiral electrical heating element (26) integrally brazed in a channel in its outer surface. The nozzle has a number of elongated conductive probes (40) spaced in a sleeve portion (22) which extends around the central portion (16) adjacent its forward end (20). Each probe (40) extends in the sleeve portion (22) a predetermined distance rearwardly along the central portion (16) and projects from the sleeve portion a predetermined distance forwardly of the forward end (20) of the central portion (16). Each conductive probe has a copper inner portion which picks up heat from the adjacent coils of the heating element (26) and carries it forwardly to the projecting forward portion (42) adjacent one of the gates (54). In addition to providing additional heat, this configuration with the forwardly projecting probes provides the mold with more structural strength and improved cooling.

Abstract: An electronic odometer is disclosed, in which, in order to provide higher reliability than obtained in prior art apparatuses, integrated traveled distance data to he stored in a nonvolatile memory is divided into three portions, i.e., high order digit data, medium order digit data, and low order digit data, and a plurality of memories constituting the nonvolatile memory having the digit representative of the medium order digit data as the address thereof or as a part of the address thereof are selected and the high order digit data which is required to be the most reliable of the three portions are written into at least three of the selected memories and the low order digit data is written into at least one of the rest of the selected memories. When extracting the integrated traveled distance data from these memories, the high order digit data is determined by applying majority rule to the data read out from the three memories. It is thus achieved to enhance the reliability on the integrated traveled distance data by the application of majority rule.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un système pulsatoire amélioré pour une prothèse cochléaire. Ce système utilise une stratégie de codage à crêtes multispectrales, afin d'extraire un certain nombre de crêtes spectrales, par exemple 5, d'un signal acoustique d'arrivée reçu par un microphone. Le système transforme par codage cette information en impulsions séquentielles, qui sont envoyées vers des électrodes sélectionnées d'un implant cochléaire. La première crête spectrale de formant (F1) (280-1000 Hz) et la seconde crête spectrale de formant (F2) (800-4000 Hz) sont codées et présentées à des électrodes apicales et basales respectivement. Une sélection des électrodes F1 et F2 suit l'organisation tonotopique de la cochlé. Les informations spectrales haute fréquence sont envoyées vers les électrodes les plus basales et les informations spectrales basse fréquence sont envoyées vers les électrodes les plus apicales. L'énergie spectrale située dans les régions comprises entre 2000 et 2800 Hz, entre 2800 et 4000 Hz et supérieures à 4000 Hz et codée et présentée à trois électrodes fixes. La fréquence fondamentale ou vocale (F0) détermine la cadence d'impulsions de la stimulation pendant la période parlée et une cadence apériodique pseudo-aléatoire détermine la cadence d'impulsions de la stimulation pendant les périodes non parlées. L'amplitude du signal acoustique dans les 5 bandes détermine l'intensité du stimulus.

Abstract: In order to increase the life of a flexible jacket in a shoe type press roll having a flexible jacket (11), end wall displacing means (28) and jacket streching means (27), the end wall displacing means (28) are designed to permit a setting of an arbitrary operating position for one roll end wall (18) between two end positions on one of the two stub shafts (13) of the roll, and the jacket stretching means (27) are designed to maintain the stretching force substantially constant, whereby the other roll end wall (22) will be self-positioning and will automatically follow each axial displacement of said one roll end wall (18). Consequently, it will be possible to let the end walls (18, 22) be placed in one end position during a first period of operation and to displace them, for each subsequent period of operation, and adequate distance towards the other end position, whereby the fatigue and the wear of the roll jacket (11), which occur primarily at the axial end of the press shoe (14), will be spread over an area corresponding to the entire displacement distance between the end positions.
