Abstract: A color display device based on dielectrophoresis is described. The device includes a dielectrophoretic mixture comprising semi-insulating particles of each of the subtractive primary colors cyan ( 32 ), magenta ( 34 ) and yellow ( 36 ) in a semi-insulating liquid ( 24 ). The dielectrophoretic frequency characteristics of the particles are the same or similar for particles of the same color but different between the three colors. In particular, the transition frequency (f<SUB>0</SUB>) is different for each color, or two colors may have the same transition frequency (f<SUB>0</SUB>) if one has a reversed sense dielectrophoretic frequency characteristic. Also the speeds of the particles are the same for particles of the same color but different between the three colors. The pixels are driven with alternating voltages of different frequencies (f<SUB>1</SUB>, f<SUB>2</SUB>, f<SUB>3</SUB>, f<SUB>4</SUB>) and duration determined such that different proportions of the different colors of particles are moved, dependent upon their transition frequencies and speeds. A reflective, saturated full color display device may thereby be provided.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil de dépoussiérage compact monté sur la machine utilisant un matériau particulaire nécessitant un nettoyage visant à éliminer des corps étrangers et permettant de décontaminer de façon économique et efficace le matériau particulaire immédiatement avant l'utilisation de celui-ci. L'appareil de dépoussiérage comprend une chute d'alimentation en pente dirigée vers le bas et présentant une ouverture au niveau du fond de celle-ci. Un dispositif de mesure sous forme de moyeu à ailettes rotatif bloque l'ouverture, de manière à mesurer de façon constante le débit de matériau particulaire dans l'appareil de dépoussiérage. Le dispositif de mesure est constitué de lames souples légèrement inclinées par rapport à la pente de la chute d'alimentation, de manière à obtenir un débit constant de matériau dans l'ouverture. Un débit d'air est dirigé à travers un plateau de lavage positionné au-dessous de la chute d'alimentation, de manière à nettoyer le matériau particulaire. Le débit d'air est dirigé le long de plusieurs chemins notamment un chemin définissant une lame d'air associée au plateau de lavage, en vue de faciliter le nettoyage du matériau.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to produce a cost-effective oil scraper ring (1) from segments which respectively consist of a metallic retaining ring segment (2) and a plastic insertion ring segment (4) which is positioned in the retaining ring segment in a non-positive manner with play. The non-positive connection is carried out, for example, by means of recesses (24) located in the extension of the bottom of grooves (22) provided in the respective retaining ring segments, and by means of lateral bulges (44) on the insertion ring segments (4). In this way, a tongue-and-groove joint is produced between the two ring segments. The insertion ring segments (4) comprise a plurality of relief wells (49) located between two parallel scraper lamellae (41), said relief wells communicating with oil relief wells (29) in the retaining ring segments (2). Compared to solutions using only plastic and solutions using metallic oil scraper lamellae, the inventive solution is more cost-effective, reducing the wear on the piston rods and thus the oil consumption.

Abstract: A dispenser for dispensing a fluid includes a housing, a fluid reservoir placed in the housing, and a pump. The pump includes a nozzle protruding therefrom and an operating part connected to the fluid reservoir. When the operating part is moved from an initial position, in which flow of fluid through the pump from the fluid reservoir to the nozzle is substantially prevented, in a direction of pumping, fluid is pumped from the fluid reservoir to the nozzle. The dispenser also includes a resilient element which, upon movement of the operating part from the initial position, exerts a force opposed to the direction of pumping. The nozzle forms part of the operating part and is at an angle relative to the direction of pumping. The engagement mechanism externally engages an area of a part of the nozzle protruding from the operating part.

Abstract: Methods and circuits are described for reducing power consumption within digital logic circuits by blocking the passage of clock signal transitions to the logic circuits when the clock signal would not produce a desired change of state within the logic circuit, such as at inputs, intermediary nodes, outputs, or combinations. By way of example, the incoming clock is blocked if a given set of logic inputs will not result in an output change of state if a clock signal transition were to be received. By way of further example, the incoming clock is blocked in a data flip-flop if the input signal matches the output signal, such that receipt of a clock transition would not produce a desired change of state in the latched output. The invention may be utilized for creating lower power combinatorial and/or sequential logic circuit stages subject to less unproductive charging and discharging of gate capacitances.
