Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for thermally bonding particles that are present in bulk and that consist of an expanded, pre-expanded and/or expandable polymer, to form moulded parts by means of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, in particular microwave radiation, using at least one liquid medium that absorbs electromagnetic radiation. According to the invention, the volume of the void spaces in the bulk material is almost entirely filled with the liquid medium and the particles are welded together by the mutual contact of their surfaces at least at surface level, to form the moulded part and are subsequently cooled. Moulded parts with a homogeneous and intimate bond are thus obtained.

Abstract: A spiral wound abrasive belt is formed from an abrasive media including a plurality of webs. The webs of the abrasive media may include coated abrasives joined by splicing media or other suitable joining material. Alternatively, the webs may include individual single or multiple layers that form a coated abrasive simultaneously along with the spiral belt without the use of additional joining material. A method of forming the spiral belt includes draping the abrasive media over a fixed hub at an angle to form the spiral belt while abutting the edges of the outermost web and overlapping the outermost web and adjacent web or webs. Heat and pressure may be applied to the joined edges to form a strong bond along the spiral seam. Another method includes introducing the webs forming the abrasive media at an angle and draping the webs over a fixed hub. The abrasive media may then be passed around an adjustable hub that provides tension in the spiral belt while allowing for different circumferentially sized belts. Continuous feeding of the input abrasive media or webs will result in a spiral belt of ever increasing width that may subsequently be slit to a desired width.

Abstract: A wireless intelligent personal server includes a radio frequency (RF) receiver, a memory for storing electronic files, a set of embedded machine language instructions, a central processing unit (CPU), a first interface for a display device, such as a personal digital assistant (PDA), and a second interface for a wireless telephone. The RF receiver receives downstream data transmitted over a downstream wireless communications channel. The CPU executes the machine language instructions to process the downstream data and, thereby, either update an existing target electronic file stored in the memory, so that the target electronic file reflects changes made to a source electronic file, or create a new electronic file in the memory. A display device may be brought into communication with the wireless intelligent personal server, via the first interface, to access the electronic files stored in the memory. The wireless intelligent personal server may also transmit an upstream signal over an upstream wireless communication channel, such as by using a wireless telephone, in communication via the second interface. The upstream signal may acknowledge receipt of the downstream data, or it may include upstream data reflecting changes to the electronic files stored in the memory made by the display device.

Abstract: An improved antenna arrangement for base stations in communication networks is disclosed. The arrangement has panel apertures generating a multi-beam pattern while producing acceptable side-lobe levels. A typical arrangement includes a plurality of radiator elements arranged in three separate vertical columns along the antenna panels thereby forming the radiation aperture. A number of such panels may form a base station antenna, where each aperture produces two beams. Each group of three columns may be further divided into sub-panels for providing different elevation patterns. Feeding signals for the two lobes from each group of columns are connected to an elevation beam-forming network and to an azimuth beam-forming network having three output terminals forming antenna ports. The beam-forming network generally creates a 90° phase-gradient between the signals appearing at the antenna ports. The angle may also be arbitrary. The three separate columns are typically vertically polarized. The aperture-coupled radiator elements may include patch antenna elements, which are separately fed by a strip-line network.

Abstract: Color processing architecture and algorithms (CPAA) for color laser printers process and handle incoming RGB image data effectively to achieve high performance, high quality image printing with low memory requirements. CPAA supports a new data structure for faster raster operation processing (ROP) for color laser printers. The CPAA architecture advantageously improves the flow of data through the processing pipeline to provide high speed at higher resolutions, e.g., at 600 and 1200 dpi. An advance quantizer using multilevel dithering flexibly reduces bits to support fast ROP and to enable fast conversion to CMYK data with only a simple look-up table (LUT) operation by a color matching module, while an adaptive filter maintains high image quality. <IMAGE>

Specifically, the DC-to-DC power converter includes at least one power switch connected to an input voltage source. At least one phase sensing switch is connected to the input voltage source in parallel with the at least one power switch. A pulse width modulation circuit provides common control pulses for the at least one power switch and the at least one phase sensing switch responsive to a current sense signal. An output inductor is connected to the at least one power switch and to a load. A current sensor is coupled to the output inductor and providing the current sense signal to the pulse width modulation circuit corresponding to current passing through an internal DC resistance of the output inductor. The current sensor further includes a filter that includes an on-state resistance of the at least one power switch. The current sensor further includes a second filter adapted to remove noise from the current sense signal when the at least one phase sensing switch and the at least one power switch change state. <IMAGE>
