Abstract: A raster scan control system (18) for use with a charged-particle beam delivery system (20) provides precise control of large currents driving an inductive load. The beam delivery system includes a nozzle through which a charged-particle beam (24), such as a proton beam, passes prior to being directed to a target (32). The nozzle includes both fast and slow sweep scan electromagnets (204, 208) that cooperate to generate a sweeping magnetic field that steers the beam along a desired raster scan pattern at the target. The electromagnets are driven by large currents (213, 215) from the raster scan control system. The raster scan control system includes both fast and slow power amplifiers (212, 214) for delivering the desired large currents to the fast and slow electromagnets, respectively; monitoring means (206, 210) for monitoring the magnetic fields; sensing means (212, 230) for sensing the large currents; feedback means for maintaining the magnetic fields and large current at desired levels; out of tolerance means for automatically causing the servo power amplifiers to steer the beam away from the target area in the event the error signal becomes excessive; a programmable raster generator (80) for providing the fast and slow power amplifiers with a raster scan signal (216, 218) that defines the desired raster pattern; and a power supply (74) for delivering the requisite power to the power amplifiers and other components.

Abstract: Dans une classe de procédés de fabrication d'acides de peroxyde organiques faiblement solubles, l'acide carbonique correspondant est mis en réaction avec le peroxyde d'hydrogène dans un milieu de réaction contenant une forte concentration d'acide sulfurique. La présence de tels composants dans le mélange réactif ainsi que le comportement des composants et la manière dont ils sont mis en contact peut se révéler aléatoire dans les procédés. Dans cette invention, les problèmes d'incertitude sont réduits ou éliminés premièrement par la dissolution de l'acide carbonique dans de l'acide sulfurique concentré, deuxièmement par la formation d'une solution acide de Caro contenant une quantité complémentaire d'acide sulfurique et de peroxyde d'hydrogène dans une fourchette prédéterminée, et ensuite par l'introduction d'une solution d'acide carbonique à un taux contrôlé dans la solution d'acide de Caro, souvent pendant une période allant de 30 à 90 minutes, avec un contrôle de l'agitation et de la température. Les compositions des deux solutions réactives sont précalculées en fonction l'une de l'autre de sorte que la valeur A (rapport du poids de l'acide sulfurique sur le poids combiné de celui-ci et de l'eau) augmente au cours de l'ajout de la solution d'acide carbonique ou bien reste la même ou augmente si la solution d'acide carbonique est relativement moins insoluble. De préférence, les solutions sont formulées pour fournir une valeur de A, à la fin de la période de réaction, qui se situe dans une fourchette d'environ 0,7 à 0,8, à une température d'environ 20 à 45°, la solution la plus soluble se rapprochant de l'extrémité la plus basse de chaque fourchette et la solution la moins soluble tendant vers l'extrémité la plus élevée de chaque fourchette. Le procédé est plus particulièrement adapté pour produire des acides carboniques diperoxy ou des acides mono-aliphatiques faiblement solubles comme l'acide peroxyanoïque ou l'acide diperoxydodécanédiodique ou pour des acides de peroxyde substitués à un groupe aromatique pour lesquels la peroxydation se produit dans un environnement tout d'abord aliphatique, comme l'acide phtalimidoperoxyhexanoïque.

Date Jan. 10, 1991.A known film becomes transparent when heated from a first temperature (for example, room temperature) to a second temperature and non-transparent when heated to a third temperature. These changes are reversible. A film of this type is to be used as a record carrier for optical information. The film (A) is passed continuously or stepwise past an erasing device (L), a cooling device (K), a preheating device (V) and a writing device (S). The film (A) can be made either transparent or non-transparent by heating it to different predetermined temperatures. The information can be recorded on the film in either its transparent form in non-transparent surroundings or in its non-transparent form in transparent surroundings. The device can be used together with the film to obtain a "paperless" office, because the recordings can be erased from the films, which can therefore be constantly re-used.

Abstract: A method serves for flattening logs (10) showing a curved longitudinal center line (10a). The logs (10) are conveyed in horizontal position in their longitudinal direction, with their convex side (11) up and their concave side (12) down. The concave side (11) of the logs (10) is flattened from below in the area of their butt ends (27). In order to optimize the yield in wood, the logs (10) are measured before carrying out the flattening step, in a position where they are supported on a reference plane (13) by the end points (20, 22) of their concave side (12) only. The geometrical position of a first point (26) of the log (10) is determined on the convex side (11) as its elevation above the reference plane (13). The butt end (27) of the log (10) is then lowered, while keeping the end point (20) opposite the butt end of the log constantly in contact with the reference plane ( 13), until the first point, which defines the lowest point between the said highest elevation (23) and the said butt end (27) on the said convex side (11), comes to lie at a level above the reference plane (13) which corresponds to the diameter (d0) of the said log (10) at its end opposite the said butt end. Thereafter, the logs (10) are flattened in this lowered position up to the reference plane (13) (FIG. 1).

Abstract: A fast, relatively inexpensive and simple method is disclosed for producing a finished plastic multifocal or progressive lens from a preformed lens which has a predetermined lens correction (i.e., curvature or prescription) at its optical center. The method comprises providing a mold; providing an optical quality resin composition; providing a performed plastic lens contacting the preformed lens with the mold such that the surfaces of the preformed lens and the mold form a cavity enclosing the resin composition; and curing the resin composition. The cavity formed by the performed lens and the mold is shaped, among other purposes, (1) to correspond to the desired change in curvature, and (2) such that the lens correction at the optical center of the resulting lens is substantially the same (preferably the same) as the predetermined lens correction at the optical center of the preformed lens. The preformed lens may also be cast with a thin non-prescription layer which acts as a carrier for the multifocal or progressive region of the finished lens. The methods disclosed allow casting of lenses without employing expensive conventional optical gaskets. The methods also allow for simpler relocation of the optical center to the proper position with respect to the multifocal or progressive prescription, preferably without using conventional optical gaskets or optical center movers.

Abstract: In order to guide a cutting band in a band saw machine in a more efficient manner one or two pivotal band guides (1) according to the invention are fitted as close as possible to the cutting place. Each guide (1) is in two parts and designed as a wheel which can run on bearings (5). The wheel consists of two guide rings (2, 3) with side faces (10) forming lateral guides for the side faces of the saw blade (17) or the knife blade (11). At the rear the cutting blade is provided with a bottom guide in the form of a face (13, 19). This may be configured as the periphery of the rings (12, 18, 21). Finally, one or a number of tolerance rings (14, 20) are inserted, permitting adjustment of the distance between the sides faces (10) on a continuous basis. Hereby is obtained a rotary guide (1) which is not exposed to irregular wear since the entire guide is easily brought to rotate when the cutting blade is moved. This gives a hitherto unobtainable good guiding since the cutting band is being guided in all directions of tension during cutting, whereby deformation of the band is avoided. This gives a very accurate guiding without noise and with reduced wear of the cutting band.
