Abstract: A method of making a photographic panel, comprising the steps of making at least two photographic prints of the same size from the same negative, applying adhesive to their surfaces and onto one side of a transparent base, and laminating the base and a first one of said photographic prints so that the respective adhesive-applied surfaces are face-to-face, thereby bonding the two together. The backing sheet of the first photographic print is then removed and the second photographic print is bonded to the already bonded photographic print so that images of both photographic prints are aligned with each other, and the backing sheet of said second photographic print is removed. Three or more such photographic prints may be laminated and bonded successively onto the base. A superior visual effect is obtained when viewed by either reflected or transmitted light.

Abstract: A method of removing impurities from a semiconductor wafer is described comprising the steps of lapping the front and back surfaces of the wafer to remove 35 to 40 microns of material therefrom and to make the surfaces parallel, heating the wafer at a predetermined temperature preferably equal to or above the highest temperature to be used in subsequent device fabrication, etching the front and back surfaces of the wafer to remove 35 to 40 microns of material therefrom and thereafter polishing the front surface of the wafer for removing 20 microns of material therefrom. By means of the above process the number of surface defects caused by strain producing centers in the crystal lattice of the wafer is reduced from 500,000 defects per square centimeter to less than 1,000 defects per square centimeter.

Abstract: The invention concerns a laminate for use in a garment for a clean room environment where formation of static charge on clothing worn by a worker in the clean room may deleteriously affect work being conducted therein. The laminate has a high rate of water vapour transmission, thus providing a comfortable garment, blocks transmission of bacteria and submicron size particles, sheds particles, and does not form particles itself. The laminate comprises a layer of porous polymeric film and adhesively bonded to it an electrically conductive textile fabric capable of dissipating static electric charge. The preferred porous polymer layer is of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. The preferred electrically conductive textile fabric has a sufficient content of fibres containing electrically conductive carbon particles to dissipate static electric charges.

Abstract: In order to avoid use of a flat and deformable key, a locking device for controlling two independent actions is of the axial pin tumbler type. A rotary plug (4), a control plug (5), a master plug (6) and a stationary plug (2) fit in contact with each other within a cylinder (1). Connections and disconnections between the plugs (2,4,5,6) are effected by the actions of top pins (11), master pins (12) and bottom pins (13), all of which fit into axial pin holes (7, 8, 9, 10) formed in those plugs (2, 4, 5, 6) and are springbiased forward. The selection of the connections and disconnections of the plugs (2, 4, 5, 6) is effected by means of a first key (15), a second key (16), and a master key (17). The rotational directions and angles of an actuating shaft (3) set by the first and second keys (15 and 16, respectively) are controlled by the actions of front and rear face projections (18 and 19, respectively) on the control plug (5), a rear face recess (20) of the rotary plug (4), and a front face recess (21) of the master plug (6).

Abstract: An improved nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging method using selective excitation in conjunction with driven free precession (DFP) to form two or three-dimensional images is disclosed. The combination of these techniques enables a plane section to be selected and subsequently reconstructed from multiple angle projections by known multiple angle reconstruction techniques such as are used in X-ray computed tomography. Alternatively the plane sections can be reconstructed using known Spin Warp or Fourier Transform Zeugmatography methods to produce a map of the spin density of the material, or a combination of spin density of the material, or a combination of spin density and relaxation times of the material in the selected plane. The improved imaging technique is particularly applicable to the detection and localization of various disease states of biological tissue which exhibit altered relaxation times.

Abstract: A syringe is disclosed the main feature of which is that its plunger (5) is bored longitudinally with a conduit and provided with an inlet fitting to which an ordinary hollow injection needle (10) can be mounted after removing a cap (4) supplied with it. This arrangement enables the syringe to be filled from the rear and directly into the interior of the graduated barrel (1) where medicines can be metered and mixed for subsequent delivery, through an offtake head (2, 2a, 2b, 7), to a number of needles, the outlet fittings for which are individually screened by a form of trap. The latter arrangement is directed to balance the flows through all the outlet fittings, since otherwise, the middle outlet fittings, i.e. those aligned with or placed the closest to the outlets conveying the liquid into the offtake head, would be favoured.

Abstract: @ An active suspension apparatus using hydropneumatic springs is disclosed to control damping characteristics in accordance with a vibration state of a passenger's compartment of a vehicle during travel. An absolute acceleration of the passenger's compartment where passengers are accommodated is detected and is compared with a reference value to discriminate an actual vibration state of the passenger's compartment. The openings of restrictors arranged between hydropneumatic spring chambers and actuators are controlled in accordance with the discrimination result. In order to accurately detect the vibration state, specific vibration components are extracted by band-pass filters from the absolute acceleration signal. F:G

Abstract: A forage harvester includes four multiple-bladed rotary cutting segments positioned near a shearbar. Four proximity sensors are mounted in shearbar bores near each of the cutting segments, each including a permanent magnet and a sensing coil. Blade motion near the sensors produces an electrical signal in the sensing coils. The signals from each sensing coil are integrated, sampled and averaged. The largest average signal is conditioned and applied to an analog meter for display to a vehicle operator. Switch and logic circuits permit the operator to monitor only selected one or ones of the cutting segments.

Abstract: This linkage of the toggle joint type, comprises a first and a second linkage member (16, 17) of a mouldable thermoplastic material which are connected to each other through a hinge joint (18) formed as a strip of plastic material, integral with the linkage members. The hinge joint strip (18) is located at the relative rotation axis of the linkage joint, while, to relieve the strip of stresses tending to tear it, the position of this axis is defined by mutually interleaved guide members (19, 20) with the shape of an arc of a circle having its centre of curvature on the relative rotation axis between the two linkage members. This linkage is therefore simple and cheap both in construction, with regard to the moulding process, and in assembling, as it requires decreased labour times.
