Patent EP-0778508-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NELSON ARTHUR RANDALL
IPC: F41G3/00
Filed: 1996-11-06
Abstract: A higly efficient motor driver circuit of an electronic controller (56) for linear cryogenic coolers operates directly from a variable power supply (58), such as a battery. Elimination of the prior art voltage regulator ensures a higher efficiency motor driver circuit (106) of the electronic controller. Both open-loop and closed-loop controllers (112,110) electronically control the motor driver circuit . The open-loop controller protects against temperature sensor failure, and will limit maximum motor power as a function of system ambient temperature. The closed-loop controller regulates the temperature of the cold finger (66) accurately to a preset value, using feedback from a temperature sensor (68) along with a novel pulse-width modulation concept for modifying motor drive waveforms.

Abstract: A process (20) for repairing leaking glass-to-metal seals (13) of a hybrid microcircuit header (10). The process (20) comprises the following steps. A leaking hybrid microcircuit header (10) is delidded (21) (has its lid (18) removed). The leaking hybrid microcircuit header (10), generally with its leads (12) pointing vertically, is disposed (22) on a vacuum source (15). A vacuum is formed (23) on the hybrid microcircuit header (10) using the vacuum source (15). A stream of helium is flowed (24) over the seals (13) to verify the presence of leaks in the seals (13) of the hybrid microcircuit header (10). A small amount of high vacuum sealant (11) is applied (25) to each of the leaking glass-to-metal seals (13) while the hybrid microcircuit header (10) is exposed to the vacuum. The vacuum draws the sealant (11) through the cracked or defective glass-to-metal seals (13). The high vacuum sealant (11) generally comprises a silicone resin having a low vapor pressure. A stream of helium is caused to flow (26) over the resealed leads (12) following application of the high vacuum sealant (11) to confirm that the hybrid microcircuit header (10) is sealed. The hybrid microcircuit header (10) is removed (27) from the vacuum source (15). The hybrid microcircuit header (10) is then cured (28) at a temperature of 150±10 degrees Celsius for a minimum of 2 hours to complete the repair process (20). The lid (18) is reattached (seam sealed) following repairs. A final leak test is performed after reattachment of the lid (18).

Abstract: An apparatus for providing a convenient and flexible way for a user to dial a block code which allows the user to withhold his/her identity and telephone number when the user makes a phone call. By programming different operation modes using the keys when the apparatus is in an on-hook status, the user may elect to have a block code dialed by manually pressing a block key when desired, or to have a prompt message displayed on the screen to remind him/her to press a key to dial the block code, if so desired, when the phone is off-hook, or to have the block code auto-dialed every time the phone is off-hook. When the apparatus is in an automatic block code dialing mode, the user may override this setting and have his/her caller ID sent on a per call basis. Another aspect of the invention is a circuit arrangement which is capable of reducing the speech/voice interference to the call waiting caller-ID-alert signal during normal telephone conversation, thus improving the chance of a successful caller ID data transmission during call waiting.

Abstract: A long light emitting apparatus is durable, emits light that can be seen from any direction, and has a low power consumption. The long light emitting apparatus is realized by providing a plurality of LED lamps (light emitting diodes) connected in series at intervals on a connection line. The LED lamp includes an epoxy resin bulb-shaped portion, two leads, and an LED chip connected to the two leads and embedded into the bulb-shaped portion. The surface of the bulb-shaped portion is etched, cut, cut like a diamond, coated with small particles, or covered with an optically-diffusing material so that the emitted light can be diffused and emitted in all directions except backward from the base of the LED lamp. The thus processed surface of the LED lamp can emit light in all directions to be seen from any direction as in the case where filament lamps are used. Since an LED element is used as a light source and the LED lamps are made of resin, the LED lamp is durable. Therefore, the long light emitting apparatus can be easily stored and handled, has a low total power consumption, and is an economical apparatus.
