Abstract: The invention relates to a lithographic method for producing microcomponents with component structures in the submillimeter range. According to the inventive method, a structured adhesive layer is applied to a metal layer and then a photostructured epoxy resin layer is applied to said adhesive layer. Said epoxide resin is structured by means of selective exposition and removing the unexposed zones and filling in the gaps between the resin structures with metal by electroplating. The aim of the invention is to provide an adhesive layer that is suitable for photostructured epoxy resins, especially for SU-8 resist material and that prevents the resist material from being detached. To this end, the adhesive layer consists of polyimide or a polyimide mixture.

Abstract: A mascara brush is disclosed that has a twisted wire core supporting a plurality of regularly disposed radially extending short and long bristles. The tips of the long bristles define an outer envelope of the brush. The short and long bristles are interspersed such that tips of the short bristles form a layer spaced inwardly from the outer envelope. The brush can be made without regard to bristle stiffness. Because the brush can be made without regard to bristle stiffness, the short bristles can have a degree of flexibility for a given length that is equal to or greater than a degree of flexibility for a given length of the long bristles. The brush is made by first forming a brush blank. The brush blank is made by providing a plurality of bristles of substantially equal length between a pair of parallel wire segments. The wire segments are initially twisted sufficiently to secure the bristles for subsequent steps. After the initial twisting, the bristles having their original lengths define the outer envelope, or the bristles may be trimmed to define the outer envelope and finish the brush blank. The short bristles are formed from a portion of the longer bristles by cutting a series of circumferentially spaced longitudinal grooves in the outer envelope of the brush blank. The wire segments are then further twisted to displace and disperse the short bristles among the long bristles such that the tips of the short bristles define a layer spaced inwardly from the tips of the long bristles.

Abstract: In a method for burning carbonate-containing material the latter moves as a result of gravity in counter-current to the cooling and combustion air through a shaft kiln. The fuel supply takes place by means of burning lances introduced into the granular burning material at right angles to the shaft wall. On limiting the grain size and the residence time as a result of this type of fuel supply it is possible to achieve high burning temperatures even suitable for hard burning without there being any sintering together of the granular burning material.

Abstract: The disclosed system and method for automated proximity determination and notification is useful to enable a customer or client of a business or other enterprise (e.g. a public library, a government facility, etc) to automatically obtain a predetermined service, on arrival at a destination associated with the business or enterprise, without having to communicate orally with representatives of the business/enterprise. A portable programmable wireless communication device is carried by users of such services. The device, termed a PLAD (pervasive location aware device), receives a program and proximity notification parameters associated with each destination to be visited, when service is reserved relative to the destination. Thereafter, as its user travels to the destinations, the PLAD is activated and uses the program information and parameters acquired in the reservation process to perform a proximity notification transmission characteristic of this invention as the device reaches a predetermined range of proximity to a destination. For that purpose, the PLAD calculates its distance to each currently valid destination at which a service is reserved, and sends a proximity notification signal to an address associated with a respective destination when its distance to the respective destination is less than a predetermined threshold radius limit acquired during the reservation process. Receiving equipment at the address uses the proximity notification signal to arrange for prompt execution of a reserved service when the user of the PLAD arrives at the respective destination. The PLAD also can be used in a reverse context-when its user is at a specific location and the service is being delivered to that location by a vehicle carrying another PLAD operated by or for a business/enterprise-to alert the user to the imminent arrival of that vehicle.

Abstract: An electromechanical cylinder lock-key-combination includes a key having a mechanical locking code and a device for storing an electronic code and sending it into the lock. A lock body encloses a turnable lock cylinder and a locking mechanism which normally prevents turning of the lock cylinder with regard to the lock body and which can be moved by the key into a releasing position allowing turning of the lock cylinder. The lock includes a special locking disc with which the key is not in direct mechanical force transmission connection, an identification and control device for receiving and identifying the electronic code from the key, and an electric operating device with a turnable coupling member attached thereto and having a free position and a coupling position in which it couples the special locking disc with the turning movement of the key for opening the lock, whereby when there is a match with the correct electronic code of the key the identification and control device activates the electric operating device to guide the coupling member to its coupling position. The coupling member is located and is in cooperation with a guiding groove in the special locking disc, the guiding groove having a guiding surface which the coupling member affects in its coupling position thereby turning the special locking disc when the key is turned in the lock.

Abstract: For the manufacture of multilayer actuators, the laminate is split into several actuators, which are pyrolized and then sintered. Because lamination in the unsintered body often produces non-homogeneity in the density, and the shrinkage during the firing of the ceramic is not of a constant value, the final geometry of the actuators can only be accurately obtained by the hardening of the sintered actuators. But in this case the internal electrode layers deposited in the actuators are thereby also processed, which can cause electrical flashovers and leakage currents during operation. Thus, according to the invention, a procedure is provided in which the block of the stacked green films provided with internal electrodes is laminated, that at least one actuator is separated from the block, that the actuator obtains its shape by means of a machining operation, that it is then sintered, that the sinter skin produced by the sintering is used as an insulating layer and that the sinter skin is abraded at the points where the internal electrodes are connected to the external electrodes.
