Abstract: Method for manufacturing a display unit, which display unit comprises a first plate-type element and a second plate-type element made of transparent material, situated essentially parallel to the first plate-type element and serving as a window, and a frame made of flexible material which is moulded in an undetachable manner onto at least part of the periphery of one of the two plate-type elements, and which holds the two plate-type elements together, while a replaceable picture carrier of sheet-like or film-like material can be placed between the two plate-type elements. The first plate-type element and the second plate-type element are place together in an injection mould, without the picture carrier placed between them. Subsequently, in an injection moulding process, the frame of flexible plastic material is moulded in an undetachable manner onto at least part of the periphery of one of the two plate type elements.

Date May 29, 1997A sensor head is provided for use in a apparatus for indicating the position of a movable member relative to a fixed member. It has two multi-turn sensor windings, each including repetitive pattern of series connected alternate sense loops of conductor. One sensor winding is in spatial phase quadrature with the other sensor winding, and the arrangement of the windings is such that the mid points of the sensor windings coincide. The sensor head is particularly suited for use in indicating the position of a movable member relative to a fixed member as it is relatively insensitive to longitudinal tilt relative to the other member.

Abstract: The invention concerns a multi-step process. Stage one consists of sputtering the coating at a low temperature. Stage two involves application of an RTP process in an inert atmosphere at a medium or high temperature. In stage three the coating is tempered in an atmosphere containing oxygen at a low or medium temperature. Temperature load is significantly reduced in comparison with conventional processes so that when this process is used to produce an integrated memory cell oxidation of an underlying barrier coating can be prevented.

Abstract: Chew toys (10) for domestic carnivorous animals having rawhide (11) and jerky sheets or members (12). The jerky sheets (12) are wrapped in a rawhide sheet (11) by either rolling or folding. This provides an outer layer (18) of rawhide containing jerky therein. A seam (19) is created in rawhide outer layer (18) by the rolling or folding of the rawhide sheet (11). The jerky (12) preferably extends through this seam (19) to provide an initial attractive odor and taste for the dog and provide an immediate starting point for chewing. The benefits of the jerky (12) and the rawhide are maximised throughout the entire chewing process of the chew toy (10). Dogs are highly attracted to the scent and taste of jerky (12), which causes the dog to chew on the rawhide (11) for extended periods of time. This better satisfies the dog's instinctive urge to chew, channeling it in a healthy direction, while simultaneously reducing the tartar on their teeth. The jerky (12) is positioned with respect to the rawhide (11) to enable the odor and taste sensations of the jerky (12) to always be present and fresh to the dog.

Chacun de ces dispositifs est relié à une mémoire système (202). L'unité centrale polyvalente assure de préférence les fonctions d'interface untilisateur et des fonctions générales de gestion des communications. Une mémoire locale (262) de cette unité et divers périphériques (264) sont couplés à l'unité par un bus local (260) d'unité centrale, laquelle peut accéder à ses périphériques sans nécessairement passer par le bus système principal. Un arbitre d'accès au bus à double accès (252) est couplé de préférence entre l'unité centrale et le bus système (214), et commande l'accès audit bus et au bus local de l'unité centrale. Le microprogrammateur programme différentes opérations et/ou fonctions et assure une commande dynamique des fréquences d'horloge, pour chaque processeur de signaux numériques et pour la logique d'accélération de matériel (240), ce qui permet un fonctionnement à la vitesse de traitement et une consommation d'énergie minimum. L'architecture unique ainsi décrite présente une configurabilité simplifiée pour différentes normes numériques. Cette architecture configurable réduit les coûts de conception et de fabrication et offre une meilleure qualité de fonctionnement par rapport à l'état antérieur de la technique.

Abstract: The method includes transmitting electromagnetic radiation from source (12) through the volume of gas (14), filtering the radiation by time modulating the transmission spectrum of the filter (16) so as to produce a time modulation of the radiation energy transmitted by the volume of gas and by the filter (16), detecting the time modulated energy using a sensor (18) and extracting signal (E) which depends on the gas concentration. The component Eac(1) of the signal, which varies with time, is isolated, the component Edc(1) of the signal, which does not vary with time, is isolated. Radiation emission is stopped (state-0) and the component. Eac(0) of the signal received by the sensor (18) is isolated. The component Edc(0) of this signal is isolated, and the terms Eac(1) - Eac(0) and Edc(1) - Edc(0) are calculated. The relationship (Eac(1) - Eac(0))/(Edc(1) - Edc(0)) is formed whose result gives the concentration (c) of the gas in the volume. Electromagnetic radiation is of the optical type.
