Title: Process of manufacturing a water-based adhesive bonded, solvent resistant protective laminate
Inventor: DRUECKE FRANK G
IPC: B32B5/24
Filed: 1994-05-06
Abstract: Disclosed  is  a  process  of  manufacturing  a  water-based adhesive bonded, solvent resistant protective laminate utilizing the steps of: providing a film having a first surface and a second surface; depositing a discontinuous coating of a cross-linked, carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber latex adhesive on the first surface of the film, the latex adhesive containing an effective amount of a cross-linking agent; joining a fibrous nonwoven web into intimate bonding contact with the film and adhesive; and removing water from the adhesive thereby causing cross-linking at reactive sites.  The adhesive may be deposited utilizing gravure printing techniques and is desirably deposited at a rate greater than about 2 grams per square meter of film. Also  disclosed  is  an  adhesively  bonded,  solvent  resistant protective laminate produced by the process.  The film component of the laminate may be composed of a thermoset polymer or a thermoplastic polymer.   The film may also be microporous or microapertured.   The nonwoven fibrous web component may be selected from bonded carded webs,  spunbonded webs,  webs of meltblown fibers, multi-ply fibrous webs containing the same type of fibrous web, and multi-ply fibrous webs containing different types of fibrous webs.

Title: Apparatus and method for mounting a machine component on a support structure
Inventor: MAHONEY JOHN PATRICK
IPC: F16B5/02
Filed: 1994-10-24
Abstract: The disclosure involves a structural combination and a method for attaching a machine component such as a number of arc-shaped gear segments to a supporting segment mounting pad.  As new, each gear segment is furnished with a number of openings, all of the same diameter.  Initially, the mounting pad is free of openings and each gear segment is placed on the pad and used as a drilling template.  After openings are drilled in the mounting pad, a number of such openings (but not all) are "opened up" by reaming and a bearing-fit bolt is inserted into the reamed openings.  In repair, a new gear segment is placed at a position which spans two places formerly occupied by gear segments.  Certain openings in the new segment are aligned with existing openings in the mounting pad (to receive clearance-fit bolts therethrough) and other segments openings are used to form new openings in the mounting pad.

Patent CA-2138559-A1 (CA)
Title: Windshield wipers
Inventor: KNUDSEN WILLIAM
IPC: H05B3/84
Filed: 1994-12-20
Abstract: An arrangement for heating upper and lower windshield wiper blades parked proximate the lower edge of a windshield utilizes an electric heating grid placed against the inside surface of the windshield, substantially in alignment with the parked wiper blades.  The electric heating grid is comprised of a first wire in alignment with the lower blade, an intermediate wire and an upper wire in alignment with the upper blade.  The wires have opposite ends which are connected to busses that are disposed at the lower edge of the windshield, the busses having leads for connection to power circuitry.  The power circuitry includes a climate control system having a switch which is rotatable to a defrost position.  When the switch is rotated to the defrost position so that the climate control system defrosts the windshield, current flows through the grid.  As long as the switch is in the defrost position, the current continues to flow.  The power circuitry also includes a windshield wiper deicing switch which operates independently of the defrost switch.  Associated with the windshield wiper deicing switch is a timer which opens the closed deicing switch after a selected interval of time.  This arrangement provides an inexpensive reliable system for deicing windshield wiper blades because the wires are disposed on the windshield against the inside surface of the windshield.

Title: Caliper disk brake for steel mill cranes
Inventor: HEIDENREICH DAVID C
IPC: F16D65/46
Filed: 1995-06-02
Abstract: A caliper disk brake for steel mill cranes includes a pair of armatures having an electromagnetic coil and a spring interposed between them to operate in a clamshell fashion. The spring urges the armatures apart, while actuation ofthe coil urges the armatures together. Each of a pair of caliper arms is pivotally connected to a respective one of the armatures at one end thereof, and has a pressure plate pivotally maintained at an opposite end. The pressure plates are maintained in juxtaposition to wear pads which are axially movable in apertures maintained in a pair of stationary plates. A disk, adapted for interconnection with the shaft of a steel mill crane hoist motor is positioned between the plates andwear pads. Actuation of the electromagnetic coil closes the armature and disengages the wear plates from the disk, while deactivation of the coil allows the spring to urge the armatures apart, causing the caliper arms to pivot such that the pressure plates engage the wear pads and force them into braking frictional engagement with the disk. The pressure plates and wear pads are free floating and self aligning.

Patent CA-2162026-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHOW ALAN Y
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 1994-04-28
Abstract: Microscopic photodiode devices with semi-transparent surface electrodes are combined with a liquid or other suitable vehicle. Together they are injected into the subretinal space of the eye. The purpose of these microphotodiode photovoltaic devices is to transduce incident light into electric current which stimulate the overlying cellular layers of the retina. In persons suffering from visual dysfunction due to outer retinal layer damage, such devices may allow useful formed artificial vision. These independent surface electrode microphotodiodes (ISEMCPs) may be in the shape of micro-spheres, micro-cylinders or other micro-shapes. An off-center embedded ferromagnetic layer will confer magnetic susceptibility to the ISEMCPs. A magnetic field applied in the vicinity of the eye will align the ISEMCPs within the subretinal space directing their photoactive surface toward incident light. Alternatively ISEMCPs may be embedded, prealigned, in a transparent flexible sheet permeable to nutrients and oxygen before implantation into the subretinal space. Such a sheet will allow passage of biological nutrients and oxygen around the ISEMCPs. This sheet may also dissolve leaving behind ISEMCP units lying separately, or in an arranged pattern produced by a surrounding mesh. ISEMCPs may be of the PiN or NiP type or a combination of both in a single unit. An electric capacitor layer may also be incorporated into the ISEMCP device (ISEMCP-C) to allow charge storage during exposure to light and charge release in darkness producing an opposite polarity current. This last modification will allow the generation of hyperpolarizing currents in light and depolarizing currents in darkness which is necessary to produce formed vision of light and dark images.
