Abstract: 1. Designation Installation for treating, storing and conveying rainwater for use as utility water or for treatment for percolation or passing into an outfall. 2. Summary 2.1 Objective The aim of the invention is low-maintenance and inexpensive treatment, purification and storage of rainwater for use as utility water in homes, industry, commerce and public buildings or for the purpose of percolation or passing into an outfall, taking into account frost-proofing, with low expenditure on maintenance, without parts which wear, with a regenerable filter, with a frost-dependent filling level, with a damming-secured overflow and compact construction. 2.2 Solution of the technical object The rainwater is purified by rapid sedimentation, filtration through a depth filter and subsequent slow sedimentation. The filter is furnished with a washable, removable filter packing and, by the special construction form, makes possible high filter cross-sectional areas with low structural volume. Variable overdamming makes possible frost-proof laying of the drains in accordance with standards, without loss of filling level in the storage. Devices for forming layers and flow guidance in the storage free the water from suspended matter before withdrawal by slow sedimentation. Variable maximum water level, depending on the external temperature, make the use of an enlarged storage volume possible in frost-free seasons. 2.3 Area of application The main use of the described installation is the treatment of roof run-off water for utility water purposes. The treatment of surface run-off water from sealed surfaces is equally possible. In addition, the rain run-off from sealed surfaces can be purified by this system prior to percolation or passing into an outfall. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In an isolation trench in a silicon-on-insulator wafer, the sidewalls of the trench curve outwardly at the bottom of the trench where the top silicon layer meets the underlying oxide insulating layer. A typical SOI structure is comprised of a semiconductor substrate (10), a silicon-oxide (SiO₂) layer 12, and a single crystal silicon layer (14). A suitable masking oxide layer (16) is deposited on the top surface of the silicon layer (14) and a photoresist (30) is formed thereon. The photoresist (30) is developed in the desired trench pattern and an opening for the trench is formed in the oxide mask (16) by means of well-known semiconductor process steps. An isolation trench (20) is formed in the top single crystal silicon layer (14) so that its sidewalls (22), at the bottom of the trench curve outwardly from the center of the trench. Preferably, the top corners (24) of the trench sidewalls are also slightly rounded to further reduce points of stress. After the trench is formed, the photoresist is removed and an oxide layer (31) is grown on the trench sidewalls using a conventional process. The trench is then filled with polysilicon (32) using a conventional chemical vapor deposition process. Finally, the structure is planarized. Optionally a stress relief annealing step is carried out at about 1050°C to 1100°C for about 20 minutes in a forming gas. This sidewall geometry eliminates the sharp corner at the bottom of the trench that are detrimental to device reliability.

Abstract: In a packet communications network, the addition or deletion of a connection to the network by a user is governed by a link traffic metric which represents the effective capacity of each link in the network which participates in the packet connection route. A new connection (or deletion) is represented by a compatible metric which allows updates in the link metric by simple vector addition or subtraction. Separate link metrics for a plurality of classes of service permit a much higher efficiency in the exploitation of the link bandwidth than is possible with a single link metric. A packet network using multiple link metrics and efficient metric updating techniques provides increased packet throughput while, at the same time, preserving all class of service guarantees.

Abstract: A dual chamber pacemaker (50) is provided with a dynamic PVARP (Fig. 3b) which tracks the occurrence of high rate atrial senses within the normal PVARP range. The dynamic PVARP is a short window (71) of about 50 ms which is moved toward the time of occurrence of any sense signal within the window range of about 50-200 ms following the ventricular event. Senses which occur within the dynamic window are rejected, or blanked (120, 123), while senses occurring within the window range but outside of the window are recognized and evaluated (120, 121). The dynamic window technique accordingly enables the pacemaker to recognize tachycardia senses which would otherwise be blanked by a fixed length PVARP, while providing efficient suppression of FFRS events. The pacemaker also provides a technique (Fig. 9, Fig. 10) for determining whether rejected senses are tachy atrial senses or FFRS, by modulating the AV interval and thus shifting the dynamic window which is coupled to the ventricular pulse. As a result of this modulation, FFRS events move with the dynamic window, but tachy senses are covered, or revealed, enabling the pacemaker to make an appropriate response (136).
