Abstract: The present invention includes a method for producing individual folded labels incorporating a radio frequency device, the method comprising the steps of providing a ribbon of labels containing a woven logo or text. A carrier strip with a plurality of radio frequency devices spaced thereon is provided and the plurality of radio frequency devices are joined to the ribbon of labels. The ribbon of labels is then folded so as to form at least one folded portion. The folded ribbon is subjected to sufficient heat and pressure to set the at least one folded portion. The ribbon of labels is subdivided into individual folded labels. The present invention also relates to a label-making apparatus including a dispenser for a carrier strip having a plurality of radio frequency devices disposed thereon at spaced intervals. A mechanism linearly advances a ribbon of labels, the ribbon of labels containing a woven logo or text. Means join the plurality of radio frequency devices with the ribbon of labels. A cutting station subdivides an individual label from the ribbon of labels and plurality of radio frequency devices. A sensor in communication with the linear advance mechanism controls the advance of a length of the ribbon of labels to provide proper spacing between the radio frequency devices, cut-edges and a logo on the label. The sensor can sense the position of the RF device or the logo or text of the ribbon of labels.

Abstract: A photocatalytic composite material having a high activity and good durability
is produced by coating the surface of a substrate with a continuous film of titanium
oxide by vapor deposition from titanium tetrachloride. In the case of a substrate
which is a mass of inorganic fibers such as glass cloth, the individual fibers or
filaments in the mass are coated with titanium oxide. The vapor deposition is
performed by contacting the substrate, such as a mass of inorganic fibers, which has
been heated to 100 - 300 °C, with a mixture of distilled pure titanium tetrachloride
vapor and water vapor to form a film of a titanium oxide precursor on the surface of
the substrate. Then, the substrate is heated at 300 - 600 °C in an oxidizing
atmosphere, resulting in the formation on the substrate surface of a continuous film
of a photocatalyst having a high activity and good adhesion to the substrate and
comprising crystalline titanium oxide with an average crystallite diameter of 50 nm or
smaller.

Abstract: A breathable moisture barrier suitable for use in enclosing flexible electrodes, foam substrate and other electrical components within a substantially liquid impervious environment without significantly impairing the ability of electrical sensors to accurately measure temperature and humidity variations within the surrounding environment such as the seating compartment of an automobile. It is further disclosed that a breathable polymeric material having a sufficiently high moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) will permit water vapor to be transported across the barrier and quickly reach equilibrium within the enclosed seat sensor mat assembly and to allow the humidity compensation of the occupant sensing system to function correctly. The breathable moisture barrier of the present invention provides a sufficiently high MVTR to allow rapid humidity equilibration within the sensor mat so as to better track rapid changes in the passenger compartment environmental conditions upon starting the car and applying either air conditioning or heating.

Abstract: Steering column comprises a steering column jacket receiving a steering spindle and a bracket part fixed to the chassis. When a fixing device is opened, the steering column jacket is displaced in a restricted manner relative to the bracket part. The fixing device is opened and closed by a tensioning device (12). The fixing device has a first fixing part (16) with at least one hole in which an engaging element (20) is moved against the force of a spring further into the hole from an extended position in which it protrudes beyond the first fixing part by a projecting length (d). The fixing device has a second fixing part (17) with several receiving holes (28) for the engaging element, which during adjustment of the steering column in the opened state of the fixing device are brought alternately into a position opposite the engaging element. When the fixing device is opened, the distance between the fixing parts is greater than the projecting length of the engaging eleme nt in its extended position. When the fixing device is closed, the distance between the fixing parts is shorter than the projecting length of the engaging element in its extended position to allow engagement of the engaging element in an opposite-lying receiving hole.

The automatic dispenser unit includes a dispenser
door adjacent to the bread making chamber. The
dispenser door is held in a closed position by a
latch assembly. The latch assembly is mechanically
linked to a solenoid core, which moves in response
to a control signal issued by electronic control
circuitry, causing the dispenser door to open.
The bread making machine includes a pause function,
which allows a user to temporarily suspend the
bread making operation at any time, by pressing a
pause key on a user interface keyboard. The bread
making operation resumes after a selected time interval
has elapsed. The selected time interval may
