Patent EP-1144310-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DOMANSKY KAREL
IPC: C01B33/12
Filed: 1999-12-23
Abstract: The present invention is a mesoporous silica film having a low dielectric constant and method of making having the steps of combining a surfactant in a silica precursor solution, spin-coating a film from this solution mixture, forming a partially hydroxylated mesoporous film, and dehydroxylating the hydroxylated film to obtain the mesoporous film. It is advantageous that the small polyoxyethylene ether surfactants used in spin-coated films as described in the present invention will result in fine pores smaller on average than about 20 nm. The resulting mesoporous film has a dielectric constant less than 3, which is stable in moist air with a specific humidity. The present invention provides a method for superior control of film thickness and thickness uniformity over a coated wafer, and films with low dielectric constant. The present invention is a method of dehydroxylating a silica surface that is hydroxylated having the steps of exposing the silica surface separately to a silicon organic compound and a dehydroxylating gas. Exposure to the silicon organic compound can be in liquid, gas or solution phase, and exposure to a dehydroxylating gas is typically at elevated temperatures. In one embodiment, the improvement of the dehydroxylation procedure is the repetition of the soaking and dehydroxylating gas exposure. In another embodiment, the improvement is the use of an inert gas that is substantially free of hydrogen. In yet another embodiment, the present invention is the combination of the two-step dehydroxylation method with a surfactant templating method of making a mesoporous film.

Title: Structural modular interconnectable subsoil drainage cell
Inventor: LEE ALAN SIAN GHEE
IPC: E02B11/00
Filed: 2003-05-09
Abstract: A structural module comprises a rigid cell including two substantially parallel planar members, each of which defines an ordered array of circular apertures with a series of columns disposed substantially normally to the two parallel surfaces retaining the two members in a fixed spaced relationship from each other. Male interlocking means which are integral with the module project from two adjacent side edges of the module. Female interlocking means are defined the other two adjacent side edges. The modules can be secured together in side edge to side edge relation, in which relationship the male locking means from a first module engage in a female locking means of a second module. The circular shape of the perimeter of the male locking member matches the size and shape of the apertures so that one module may also be inter-engaged with a second module with each male locking member of the one module projecting into one of the apertures of the second module in an interference type fit, with the first module oriented generally normally to the second module.

Title: Air samplers
Inventor: SQUIRRELL DAVID JAMES
IPC: G01N1/22
Filed: 2004-07-13
Abstract: An air sampler for use in analyzing biological or other analytes, comprizes an airflow chamber having an air inlet and an air outlet. An extract from an air mover draws ambient air in through the inlet, and then through the chamber, to discharge it back to atmosphere by way of an outlet. The airflow chamber houses a cyclone air/liquid separator through which the inflowing air is caused to pass. An injector introduces liquid into air flowing through the air inlet. The cyclone separator extracts this liquid and any entrained particles therein and discharges it from the airflow chamber, initially by way of a duct, where it is then conveyed to a collection vessel, by way of a three channel peristaltic pump, and a duct. The collection vessel is housed within a Peltier-cooled holder to maintain the contents of the vessel within the 2-8 degree Celsius range.

Patent HK-1065742-A1 (HK)
Title: Method and systems for reading and decoding information on packages
Inventor: BONNER BRETT BRACEWELL
IPC: G06V30/10
Filed: 2004-10-28
Abstract: In the system of the present invention, packages(25) are randomly placed on a conveyor belt(27), with their labels facing a two-camera subassembly(12).  As theconveyor belt(27) moves, the two-camera subassembly(12) continuously takes images of the belt underneath the overhead camera. The design of the camera permits it to take a high resolution image of a non-singulated, unjustified package flow. A digital image of the packages within the field of view of the camera is then transferred to the processing system for analysis. The processing system identifies individual packages(25) in the image, extracts them and then analyzes the information written on the package labels. The analysis process utilizes conventional Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) techniques to evaluate the information written on the package label. Once the information is decoded, the system either accesses a database record associated with the decoded machine-readable code, or creates a new record.  When an unknown word image is encountered, the field-specific recognition process is aided by use of lexicon information, optimized based on installation-specific or user-specific criteria. The lexicon information is continuously revised based on processed form information.

Patent HK-1019630-A1 (HK)
Title: Method and apparatus for indicating a load
Inventor: WAXMAN CORY S
IPC: F16B35/00
Filed: 1999-10-26
Abstract: The present invention provides an innovative method and apparatus for determining continuous, visual clamp load status during tightening and throughout the life of a fastener. The present invention provides a nondeformable element (or in some cases elements) that is suitably configured and positioned within a fastener to amplify the deformation of the fastener as a load is applied to the fastener. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, a lever is connected at an internal pivot point of a cartridge. One end of the lever rests upon an abutment within the fastener, while the other end serves as an indicator. As the fastener is tightened, the fastener will elongate causing the abutment to move away form the lever end. As the abutment moves, the lever rotates causing the indicator end to move relative to the visual scale which is calibrated to indicate clamping force. If the fastener loses tension, the fastener will contract, thereby forcing the lever to rotate toward its original position. Assembly and calibration of the device requires the simple, inexpensive process of rotating a cartridge.
