IPC: H01S3/067
Filed: 2001-08-07
Abstract: An all-glass multi-clad polygon-shaped convex optical fiber comprises a core having a core refractive index, a first glass cladding disposed around the core and having a first cladding refractive index that is lower than the core refractive index of the core, and at least a second glass cladding disposed around the first glass cladding and having a second cladding refractive index that is lower than the first cladding refractive index. The first and second claddings each have a convex polygonal cross-section, e.g. octagonal cross-sections. A method for fabricating such an optical fiber comprises the steps of: (i) mechanically machining an all-glass optical fiber preform having a core and a first cladding into an optical fiber preform having a convex polygonal cross-section; and (ii) fusing at least another glass cladding to the optical fiber preform, thereby resulting in the all-glass multi-clad polygon-shaped convex optical fiber. Step (ii) may comprises collapsing a glass tube onto the optical fiber preform for fusing the at least another glass cladding thereto, or may be achieved is achieved by an outside plasma deposition process. In a further step (iii), an external surface of the all-glass multi-clad polygon-shaped convex optical fiber is mechanically rounding off.

Title: Method and system for computer aided manufacturing measurement analysis
Inventor: BUSS SIEGFRIED KURT
IPC: G06T17/00
Filed: 2001-08-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a computer-based method and system to facilitate quality control for manufactured assemblies based on computer aided design (CAD) files. The instant invention mitigates the problems encountered with large CAD  files by decomposing each of such files into a multi-file format. A large CAD file is thereby broken-down into smaller files that organize the information contained in the larger file. The organization is performed in such a way that the information pertinent to the measurement process is segregated into a different smaller file than the information not needed to calculate measurements. Thus, the computer running the computation accesses a smaller file containing a higher percentage of required information. Additionally, assisting the user in coordinating a match-up between the physical surfaces being measured and the proper associated CAD model version of that surface further increases the handling speed. In particular, the instant invention uses selection regions for each surface. A selection region consists of the representation of a three-dimensional rectangle region just large enough to enclose each individual surface. A selection region indexes each surface. Thus, when a measurement point is taken, a list of surface regions is automatically scanned in order to determine which region contains that point. The corresponding distance of that measurement point to the surface is then calculated.

Title: Purification du gaz naturel par separation cryogenique
Inventor: BARCLAY JOHN A
IPC: F25J1/02
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un appareil (2, 20, 200) de séparation de CO¿2? d'un mélange de gaz comprenant CO¿2? et un second gaz. Cet appareil (2, 20, 200) comprend un échangeur de chaleur (216) actif et un échangeur de chaleur (221) régénérant. L'échangeur de chaleur (216) actif comporte une surface en contact avec le mélange de gaz. Ce mélange de gaz est présent dans l'échangeur de chaleur (216) actif à une pression prédéterminée sélectionnée de sorte que le CO¿2? se congèle sur la surface refroidie par un réfrigérant dont la température est inférieure à celle à laquelle le CO¿2? se congèle à la pression prédéterminée. L'échangeur de chaleur (221) régénérant comporte une surface en contact avec le réfrigérant et avec une couche de CO¿2? congelé. Le réfrigérant pénètre dans l'échangeur de chaleur (221) régénérant à une température supérieure à celle à laquelle le CO¿2? de la couche congelée est sublimé. La sublimation du CO¿2? solide refroidit le réfrigérant avant que celui se dilate dans un détendeur (215), réduisant ainsi sa température à un point inférieur au point de congélation du CO¿2? à la pression prédéterminée. Le réfrigérant est recomprimé par un compresseur (60, 160, 218) après avoir quitté l'échangeur de chaleur (216) actif. Selon une réalisation préférée de cette invention, le gaz CO¿2? libéré par l'échangeur de chaleur (221) régénérant est utilisé pour prérefroidir le mélange de gaz entrant. Un second échangeur de chaleur (167) de prérefroidissement prérefroidit le réfrigérant comprimé par contact thermique avec celui-ci au moment où il quitte l'échangeur de chaleur (216) actif.

Abstract: Dans les entreprises de restauration, la plonge manuelle est généralement effectuée dans un évier à plusieurs compartiments. Dans un bassin la vaisselle est mise en contact avec une solution aqueuse d'un agent tensioactif. La vaisselle est rincée dans un autre bassin, puis désinfectée dans un troisième bassin au moyen d'une solution désinfectante. Des décolorants à base d'hypochlorite fortement oxydant, permettent, lorsque le pH est ajusté à une valeur convenable, de maintenir une capacité sensiblement désinfectante tout en ne décolorant pas des colorants sensibles à l'oxydation. Dans le procédé de l'invention, la solution désinfectante, ajustée à un pH inférieur à environ 7, contenant un colorant, permet de garder une coloration stable durant une période supérieure à la durée requise pour épuiser 90 % ou plus d'ion OCl?-1¿ en solution. Il en résulte une indication satisfaisante de la présence de désinfectant actif sur la base de la couleur de la solution désinfectante.
