Patent GB-8400778-D0 (GB)
Title: Flanged semi-bearing for motor applications
IPC: F16C43/02
Filed: 1984-01-12
Abstract: This invention concerns a flanged half-bearing for motor applications. This half-bearing is of the type consisting of a semi-cylindrical shell, provided with half thrust washers suitable for the axial registering of the shaft, and reacting, therefore, to axial loads. The connection between semi-cylindrical shell and washers is obtained by hooking appended parts, substantially in convex prism form, present on each washer, between corresponding cavities arranged on the curved edges of the shell. Based on the angle position of the cavities, in relation to the axial plane of symmetry of the shell, and based on the shape of the cavities themselves and of the relative appendages, providing a slight interference in the coupling phase between shell and washer, and taking advantage of the flexibility of the shell, when mounted on the support, a coupling between shell and washer is obtained, which is stable before mounting in place and movable, circumferentially and axially, when mounted on the relative support. The inactivity of the hooking connection between shell and supports after mounting in place, permits the ideal adjustment of the supports themselves, axially and circumferentially.

Title: Chalcopyrite compounds
IPC: H01L31/04
Filed: 1984-08-16
Abstract: An improved thin-film, large area solar cell, and methods for forming the same, having a relatively high light-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency and characterized in that the cell comprises a p-n type heterojunction formed of: (i) a first semiconductor layer comprising a photovoltaic active material selected from the class of I-III-VI2 chalcopyrite ternary materials which is vacuum deposited in a thin "composition-graded" layer ranging from on the order of about 2.5 microns to about 5.0 microns ( SIMILAR 2.5 mu m to  SIMILAR 5.0 mu m) and wherein the lower region of the photovoltaic active material preferably comprises a low resistivity region of p-type semiconductor material having a superimposed region of relatively high resistivity, transient n-type semiconductor material defining a transient p-n homojunction; and (ii), a second semiconductor layer comprising a low resistivity n-type semiconductor material; wherein interdiffusion (a) between the elemental constituents of the two discrete juxtaposed regions of the first semiconductor layer defining a transient p-n homojunction layer, and (b) between the transient n-type material in the first semiconductor layer and the second n-type semiconductor layer, causes the transient n-type material in the first semiconductor layer to evolve into p-type material, thereby defining a thin layer heterojunction device characterized by the absence of voids, vacancies and nodules which tend to reduce the energy conversion efficiency of the system.
Patent GB-8725923-D0 (GB)
Title: Paintings
IPC: B44D3/18
Filed: 1987-11-05
Abstract: Basic pictorial content is provided on a uniform dark (e.g. black) coloured varnish surface of a support board 10 by application of a lighter (e.g. white) coloured base layer 12. It is important that the surface of the board 10 should be embossed so as to have a grained appearance, preferably resembling leather. Translucent colour washes 20,30,40 50(e.g. red, blue, yellow) are subsequently applied over all or only part of the board surface for the purpose of colouring in the plain base layer in any manner desired by the end user. No great care is required in application of these colour washes; it is expected that they will overlap onto the remaining dark varnish coating, but due to the dark, glossy and grained nature of this area the regions covered by the washes and particularly their edges are not visible. Moreover, as the surface is glossy and does not immediately absorb the wash errors can readily be put right.

Date Oct. 30, 1980.In a method and an apparatus for regulating the power which is supplied to a heating element (2) in a water heater (1), preferably a reservoir water heater containing water which is to be heated to a certain temperature, the power which is supplied to the heating element for heating the water, is regulated not only in dependence on the temperature of the water (15), but also in dependence on the temperature of the heating element (2, 4), so that the temperature of the element is kept below a predetermined critical value. The temperature of the heating element is measured directly and/or indirectly, and when the temperature of the element is below the critical value and the temperature of the water in the water heater is below the rated value, maximum power can be supplied to the heating element. When the temperature of the element has reached the critical value, but the temperature of the water in the water heater is still below the rated value, the power is regulated so as to keep the temperature of the heating element below the critical value and to minimize the heating period.

Patent IT-7830905-D0 (IT)
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 1978-12-15
Abstract: An analog sound signal the time axis of which is compressed is sampled responsive to a write clock signal and the sampled output is stored in an analog shift register having a given capacity, whereupon the stored signal is read out from the analog shift register responsive to a read clock signal the frequency of which is smaller than that of the write clock signal. The above described operation is alternately repeated, whereby the output signal read out from the analog shift register is compiled for sound synthesization. The synthesizing junction of the sound signal is controlled by a microcomputer. The microcomputer is adapted to evaluate the similarity of the data concerning the waveform at the trailing end portion of a preceding sound element stored in the random-access memory and the data concerning the waveform at the leading end portion of the succeeding sound element stored in the random-access memory. Evaluation of similarity of the waveforms is effected by evaluating a mean square error or a mutual correlation function of two sets of data. The shift amount of the leading end of the succeeding sound element to be joined to the trailing end portion of the preceding sound element is determined based upon the result of the evaluation, whereby a read circuit is controlled to correct the time axis of the succeeding sound element, thereby to achieve continuity of the waveform at the synthesizing junction of the preceding and succeeding sound elements.
