Abstract: The polarization device comprises a resistor (Rd) connected in series with a transmission line having the characteristic impedance substantially equal to the resistance (Rd), where the transmission line comprises a conducting line (TL) and a set of current sources (T1,T2,T3,...) distributed along the conducting line (TL). Each current source (T1,T2,T3,...) comprises a field-effect transistor (FET) whose gate (G) and source (S) are connected together and to the conducting line (TL) so to maintain a constant drain-source current. The transmission line is dimensioned so to make the characteristic impedance of the line independent of frequency which requires that the following condition is satisfied: L/R = C/G, where L is the value of inductance between two stages of the transmission line, R represents losses of inductance or of the line between two stages, G is the drain-source conductance of the current source, and C is the drain-source capacitance of the current source. The current (Id) delivered by the device is adjustable. The current through the resistor (Rd) is practically nul, the resistor does not heat up, and the thermal stability of associated amplifier is susbtantially improved. A power amplifier as claimed is polarized by the device, and the power amplifier is of distributed type.

Abstract: A welding material in positioned in electrically conductive relation between exterior surface portions of first and second weldable members (18, 22), such as hydroformed tubes, at a location where the first and second weldable members are to be joined. A welding device comprises first and second electrodes or conductive ends (46, 48) that extend along substantially the entire extent of first sides of the first and second weldable members, respectively. The first and second conductive ends include first and second concave recesses (158), which nest with the first and second weldable members (18, 22), respectively. Axial pressure and electrical current are applied across the first and second weldable members by the nesting first and second conductive ends.

The second transverse groove delimits one of the blocks and is separated from the first transverse groove that delimits a circumferentially adjacent block by a solid tread portion. The solid tread portion extends from the first circumferential groove to the continuous circumferential tread rib. The common vertex of each block is located at a position axially intermediate the first circumferential groove and a portion of one of the transverse grooves that delimits the block.

Abstract: Nanostructured Li4Ti5O12 (spinel) was prepared via a method employing lithium ethoxide and Ti(IV) alkoxides as the starting reagents. The optimized materials contained less than 1% of anatase as the main impurity and, depending on the synthetic conditions, they exhibited the BET surface areas of 5-183 m<2>/g. Trace amount of anatase in Li4Ti5O12 was conveniently determined by cyclic voltammetry of Li-insertion. Thin-film electrodes from nanostructured Li4Ti5O12 spinel exhibit excellent activity towards Li-insertion, even at charging rates as high as 250C. This behavior compares favorably with that of microcrystalline Li4Ti5O12 made by conventional high-temperature solid-state synthesis. A use of this compound in lithium secondary batteries is also disclosed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming an improved pultruded and clinched Z-axis fiber reinforced composite laminate structure (33). The upper and lower skins (51a, 51b) and the core (22) are pulled automatically through tooling (23) where the skin material is wetted-out with resin and the entire composite laminate (33) is preformed in nearly its final thickness. The preformed composite laminate continues to be pulled into an automatic 3-dimensional Z-axis fiber deposition machine (24) that deposits "groupings of fiber filaments" at multiple locations normal to the plane of the composite laminate structure and cuts each individual grouping such that a extension of each "grouping of fiber filaments" remains above the upper skin and below the lower skin. The preformed composite laminate then continues to be pulled into a secondary wet-out station (39). Next the preformed composite laminate travels into a pultrusion die (26) where the extended "groupings of fiber filaments" are all bent over above the top skin and below the bottom skin producing a superior clinched Z-axis fiber reinforcement as the composite laminate continues to be pulled, catalyzed, and cured at the back section of the pultrusion die. The composite laminate continues to be pulled by grippers that then feed it into a gantry CNC machine (36, 37) that is synchronous with the pull speed of the grippers (34, 35) and where computerized machining, drilling, and cutting operations take place. This entire method is accomplished automatically without the need for human operators.

During slow running of the loom, the lever (21) is moved by displacing the cam (24) at right angles in the direction (C) by means of a drive (30). Opening of the clip (20) is then under the control of a sensor for the position of the gripper (3) acting on the drive (30). An independent claim is also included for an arrangement for opening the gripper clip (20), including electrical drives (26, 30) and sensors to indicate the position of the grippers. During slow running of the loom the cam (24) is moved towards the lever (21) to open the clip (20) at a predetermined position of the gripper. Preferred Features: Separate electric motors and cranks (28, 29, 32, 33) are provided for the two motions in the directions (B) and (C).

Abstract: An apparatus provided with wedge-shaped elements is proposed for the precision positioning of objects 37 to be measured or machined. A wedge-shaped translational body 32 is carried by two bearing wedges 24, 26. In accordance with the invention the wedges can be independently translated in the x direction. The body is translated in the z direction by moving the bearing wedges over an equal distance but in opposite directions. The body is translated in the y direction by moving the bearing wedges over an equal distance in the same direction. The mutually moving parts of the apparatus are carried by means of fluid bearings. A high precision is thus obtained, because fewer errors due to non-infinite stiffnesses and error motions are accumulated. A laser measuring apparatus 74, 38, 40 is used for measuring and adjusting the position of the object carrier 35.
