Inventor: ROEDEL ANDREAS
IPC: G01N27/12
Filed: 1997-09-10
Abstract: The invention concerns a device for detecting and locating leakage fluids in sealing systems, said device being characterized by a single-layer flat structure (4) which comprises electrically conductive particles and/or fibres and is disposed all-over the exterior of a sealing region to be monitored. The flat structure comprises an area-specific electrical resistance which, when wetted with an electrically conductive fluid, decreases in the region of the wetting and, when wetted with an electrically non-conductive fluid, increases in the region of the wetting. The flat structure (4) is further provided with a plurality of measuring contacts (5, 6) which are connected via one or a plurality of bus transmission lines to a measuring and evaluating arrangement (9) by means of which the electrical resistance of the flat structure (4) and/or the potential distribution can be measured in relation to a counter electrode disposed on the interior of the sealing region to be monitored, and a variation in the local resistance distribution and/or potential distribution within the flat structure (4) can be determined.

Patent CA-2266816-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STASCHEWSKI HARRY
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1999-04-12
Abstract: In a process for the manufacture of an optical cable consisting of a metal pipe, in which at least one optical fiber is arranged, a metal strip drawn from a supply coil is gradually shaped into a slot pipe. The optical fiber drawn from an additional supply coil is fed to the still open slot pipe, the longitudinal slot of the slot pipe is welded and the diameter of the welded pipe is reduced. The metal pipe is elastically elongated at least after the reduction. The diameter of the pipe is thereby reduced in at least two stages, the value of the reduction being greatest in the last stage.

Patent CA-2271731-A1 (CA)
Title: Composite steel structural plastic sandwich plate systems
Inventor: KENNEDY STEPHEN J
IPC: B63B3/20
Filed: 1997-11-12
Abstract: A composite laminate panel suitable for building containment vessels, and in particular, suitable for building double hull oil tankers.  The laminate has two facing metal layers structurally bonded to a polyurethane elastomer core. The laminate is used in various hull components, such as the hull plates, longitudinal girders, transverse frames and bulkheads. The laminate is used to build the inner hull and outer hull, and may be used to build the structural supports between the inner and outer hulls. The innermost layer of inner hull contains the ship's cargo. The elastomer core of the inner hull laminate isolates the innermost hull skin from cracks, thereby preventing a loss of cargo such as oil into the environment, when the outer hull is pierced, penetrated or ruptured in an accident or grounding.

Title: Method for statistical multiplexing of atm links
Inventor: WALLMEIER EUGEN
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1997-11-07
Abstract: A plurality of atm-connections are transferred to a link section.      If an additional transmitting unit wants to be connected, it must first be checked whether it is still possible to multiplex the new atm-connection. According to prior art, the so-called sigma rule algorithm is applied for that purpose. For a better use of the transfer capacity, the prior art class is subdivided into a number of sub-classes, thereby enabling the cheapest transfer class to be chosen.

Title: Cooling of high voltage driver
Inventor: BOWLING BRUCE A
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 1999-12-10
Abstract: A compact cooling technique is provided for cooling an ink jet printer or printhead electronics. A cooling plate is held in good thermal contact to the integrated circuits to be cooled. Fluid passing through the cooling plate then cools the electronics. The cooling plate is typically an aluminum plate embedded with thin walled stainless steel tubing through which fluid flows to provide cooling. The cooling plate has a compliant pad which is thermally conductive, and electrically insulated. The plate and pad combination is held against the integrated circuits for controlling the high voltage to the charging electrodes, which are mounted on the charge driver board. The integrated circuit is packaged in a cavity down ball grid array (BGA) package which provides low thermal resistance to the cooling plate. Variations in the height of the charge driver chips is compensated for by the compliant thermal pad. The fluid is routed through the printhead frame into the cold plate where heat is transferred to the fluid which returns to the printhead frame to exit the printhead. The fluid is ported into the printhead to where the drops will be generated.

Patent CA-2313363-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GANS CHARLES A
IPC: F23L17/08
Filed: 2000-07-04
Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for improving air entrainment and sound attenuation of gases being discharged from one or more outlet portions of an exhausting device using an acoustic wind band. The acoustical wind band helps improve entrainment of ambient environmental air with the exhaust gases being discharged from the exhausting device resulting in a tight plume of high velocity flow which improves the effective stack height of the exhausting device. This is achieved by positioning the sections of the acoustical wind band in spaced relation thus forming passages that allow outside ambient environmental air to flow into the acoustical wind band to mix with and dilute the exhausting gas. The sections may also be positioned extending upward and inward at an angle to further enhance the entrainment of ambient environmental air with the flow of exhaust gas from the gas exhaust device. The acoustical wind band also helps to block noise, especially line of sight noise, from the outlet of the exhausting device thereby improving sound attenuation.  This may be achieved by having at least a portion of the bottom end of a lowest most section extend into the horizontal plane defined by the line of sight and having at least a portion of the top end and the bottom end of adjacent sections be coplanar, or preferably overlap, one another to block noise generated by the exhaust device or exhaust gas at the discharge from directly exiting the wind band. In addition, the acoustical wind band helps to protect the vena contracta produced by the converging flow (plume)of exhaust gas from environmental conditions, such as for example, wind shear.
