Title: Method for producing a hybrid leaf spring
Inventor: MEATTO FRANK
IPC: B29C35/02
Filed: 2001-01-11
Granted: 2005-12-27
Abstract: In a method for making a hybrid leaf spring, at least one layer of composite material (18, 20) is molded onto a metal primary leaf (16) using a mold (14) having an interior cavity (12) defined by at least one cavity wall. Heaters (36) for independently controlling the temperature of the metal primary leaf are also provided with the primary leaf and the layer of composite material being positioned in the mold adjacent to one another. A layer of adhesive (26, 28) is positioned between and in engagement with both the layer of composite material and the metal primary leaf. A controller (42) having heating data stored therein is employed to actuate the heater in response to commands generated therefrom causing thermal energy to conduct into the adhesive material and the layer of composite. This method minimizes adhesive cure times which is a common problem with prior art methods in which the metal primary leaf acts as a heat sink, drawing heat away from the adhesive layer.

Title: Absorbent article having detachable components
Inventor: RICHARDSON IRENE
IPC: A61F13/505
Filed: 2001-12-18
Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: An absorbent article including a disposable diaper, reusable diaper, feminine care pad, training pants, incontinence garment and the like. The article comprises a detachable flushable topsheet and an absorbent pouch containing absorbent contents; however, the detachable topsheet is optional. A fastening means releasably attaches the absorbent pouch in a stationary position within the article and prevents the pouch from shifting with respect to the article. The detachable topsheet can be removed from the article and flushed in a toilet together with the human waste. A binding allows the pouch to be opened to flush the absorbent contents and human waste inside the pouch, in segments to avoid clogging a toilet. Instead of flushing, the absorbent pouch can be removed from the article and disposed of in a waste receptacle, by rolling the pouch, with minimum finger contact with human waste, and securing the pouch to itself using an adhesive tab.

Abstract: A foldable stroller includes a positioning member disposed fixedly on one inclined lower rod of a front wheel unit, and a guideway member disposed fixedly on one inclined upper rod of a handle unit. A resilient element biases an abutment surface of a sliding element to engage a positioning surface of the positioning member, thereby locking the handle unit releaseably on the front wheel unit. The abutment surface and the positioning surface are inclined with respect to the longitudinal directions of the upper and lower rods. Actuation of a connecting element results in separation of the abutment surface from the positioning surface, thereby permitting folding of the handle unit on the front wheel unit.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for providing automated speech-to-text encoding and decoding for hearing-impaired persons. A broadband subscriber terminal interfaces to: (a) a network to convey speech packets thereover, (b) a telephone to convey speech information, and (c) a display device to display textual information of spoken words. A speech buffer in the subscriber terminal receives speech data and a processor decodes and displays textual representations of speech on the display device. A database stores voice and/or speech patterns that are used by a speech analyzer to recognize an incoming caller and to associate a name or characteristic (e.g., male or female) with the incoming call. A tonal and inflection analyzer analyzes speech to add punctuation to the displayed text. A detector, such as a DTMF detector, responds to subscriber inputs to activate/deactivate speech recognition or other functions.
