Patent EP-0612277-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FELDSTEIN ROBERT S
IPC: B22F3/10
Filed: 1992-10-20
Abstract: On décrit des techniques de fabrication d'un élément fritté à partir d'une matière ne pouvant être frittée qui ont la particularité de former une composition ou un alliage eutectique avec un agent d'alliage approprié, à une température inférieure à la température de déformation plastique de la matière. Des particules discrètes de matière à fritter sont revêtues d'une fine couche d'agent d'alliage et sont comprimées pour être placées en position de frittage. Ensuite, les grains ou parties de fils enduits sont chauffés de manière à ce qu'au moins le revêtement et les régions des grains situées juste en dessous du revêtement s'élèvent lentement en température, et de façon à ce que se produise la diffusion de l'agent d'alliage dans les grains de la matière frittable. Le processus de chauffage continue ensuite de façon à ce que les régions de diffusion passent à une température légèrement au-dessus du point de fusion eutectique. La fusion localisée des régions de diffusion se produit lorsque la concentration eutectique est atteinte, et des grains adjacents commencent à se partager les régions de fusion localisée et s'humidifient mutuellement. L'agent d'alliage continue de se diffuser, et sa concentration diminue, de façon à se congeler hors des régions de fusion localisée. Le point de fusion des régions de fusion a tendance à remonter et les régions fondues mouillées se congèlent pour former un élément fritté, solide.

Abstract: L'utilisation d'un système d'observation à fibres optiques fixé à des instruments de chirurgie supprime la nécessité d'un endoscope séparé lors de l'exécution de procédures chirurgicales très peu invasives. Un ou plusieurs ensembles de fibres optiques (36, 37), chacun étant constitué d'une pluralité de fibres conductrices d'images, sont fixés à l'instrument (10) de manière appropriée, les ensembles de fibres optiques s'étendant sur pratiquement toute la longueur de l'instrument, depuis un manche (16) situé à proximité vers une zone adjacente à l'élément actif (14) de l'instrument. Ainsi, le tissu à couper, à saisir, à coudre ou à manipuler de quelque autre manière peut être observé depuis l'élément actif. Les ensembles de fibres optiques (36, 37) sont conçus pour épouser la forme générale de l'instrument, ce qui permet de conserver l'équilibre désiré et la réponse tactile de l'instrument (10) sans que l'ensemble des fibres optiques (36, 37) n'obscurcisse le champ opératoire (14).

Abstract: In an apparatus for gel electrophoresis, a sample of fluorophore-labelled DNA fragments is caused to migrate by electrophoresis through a gel electrolyte layer in an electrophoresis plate 7 from top to bottom, thereby separating the sample into individual DNA fragments. A laser beam is launched horizontally into said electrolyte layer from one side of the electrophoresis plate 7 in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said electrophoresis plate. The emitted fluorescenses are detected to determine the base sequences of the respective DNAs. A mirror 18 for reflecting fluorescenses is provided at the back of the electrophoresis plate 7 in such a way that it is parallel to the direction of laser beam application. The fluorescences reflected by this mirror 18 are received by a fluorescense detector 22 such as a CCD sensor or MOS linear image sensor. In one embodiment, the mirror 18 is inclined by an angle of 45° with the electrophoresis plate 7 in such a way that it reflects the incident fluorescences upward, and the fluorescence detector 22 is positioned above the mirror 18 along the electrophoresis plate 7. In another embodiment, Texas Red having an excitation maximum wavelength of 596 nm and an emission maximum wavelength of 615 nm is used as the fluorophore and a He-Ne laser operating at a wavelength of 594 nm is used as a light source 10.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a measuring apparatus and a measuring method which can measure a physical property value such as an oxygen content or thermal conductivity of an aluminum nitride sintered body in high accuracy along the overall material in a short time. A microwave oscillation source (3) generates microwaves. An object (4) for evaluation, such as an aluminum nitride sintered body, which is placed in a cavity resonator (9) is irradiated with microwaves (M) with application of a magnetic field (H) by electromagnets (21, 22). An amount of microwaves absorbed by the object (4) is measured by a microwave absorption measuring unit (10). This amount of microwave absorption is obtained from an electron spin resonance spectrum. Concentration of unpaired electrons in the object is obtained from the amount of microwave absorption on the basis of a known relation between an amount of microwave absorption and concentration of unpaired electrons. The concentration of unpaired electrons is converted to a physical property value such as an oxygen content or thermal conductivity. Such processing is carried out by a computer (11).

Abstract: Camera apparatus operative with a film cartridge having a rotatable radial bar coded data disc thereon positioned at predetermined angular settings corresponding that indicate the condition of film in the cartridge, i.e. exposed, unexposed, partially exposed, etc.. The setting of the disc is determined during initial film spool rotation during the film loading process by counting with the optical sensor in the camera the number of bar code elements occurring between the initial set position of the disc and a reference position on the disc such as an edge of a quiet zone element normally included on the radial bar coded disc. The visual exposure indicator (VEI) positions on the cartridge are spaced about the perimeter of the cartridge such that there exist unambiguous element count ranges corresponding to each of the cartridge VEI positions. Element counting for this purpose can be performed in a cameras that operate to cause initial spool rotation during a film loading operation in either an unwind or rewind direction.

Abstract: Polyester composition with improved impact properties, improved oxygen permeability and improved dimensional skrinkage during heating. Impact modifiers are dissolved into a molten polyester to form a eutectic alloy. On slow cooling, the eutectic alloy of the invention freezes to form a mixture of particles of the impact modifier embedded in a matrix of the polyester. By controlling the solidification of the melt, the size and distribution of the precipitates from the melt can be controlled, which allows control of the mechanical properties. The precipitation can also be controlled either by homogenous nucleation or by heterogeneous nucleation through the addition of a nucleating agent or the introduction of a suitable surface for nucleation. The invention also provides a process of manufacturing the above polyester, an article comprising this polyester and a process for making this article. The crystalline polyester article is useful as a container for microwavable, ovenable and/or frozen foods, and has improved gas barrier properties, impact strength, and post-mold dimensional stability between -60  DEG C and 200  DEG C.
