Patent EP-1481187-A4 (EP)
Title: Locking device and method for securing telescoped pipe
Inventor: HOLMES WILLIAM W IV
IPC: F16L37/08
Filed: 2002-11-22
Abstract: A locking segment for use in connecting two lengths of pipe has a radically extending heel that serves as a rotational brake. By mating the brake into an annular trough, that is, by placing it between two walls, the rotation of the segment can continue only until points on the brake mure between the two walls. Rotation of the segment in response to increasing thrust pressures can thereby be arrested before the rotation causes the segment to bear on the spigot with a radially inward force great enough to penetrate the spigot.

Title: Backlighting system for displays
Inventor: WANG SAN ZHUANG
IPC: B29C33/38
Filed: 2003-07-26
Abstract: An LED-based backlighting system that provides excellent brightness and homogeneity suitable for high performance multi­color and high resolution portable displays such as for PDAs and cell phones. Several different but similar embodiments are disclosed. Some are suitable for use with multiple LEDs (30) and some for use with a single LED (12). In a first such embodiment, multiple LEDs are located adjacent the input edge of a light pipe (14). The input edge contains fixed pitch grooves to propagate the LED light in a direction that is substantially angled toward the bottom surface of the light pipe along its entire area. The light pipe (32) bottom surface also has grooves for altering the direction of the LED light toward the upper surface of the light pipe where it exits the light pipe toward a viewer. The exterior of the exit surface of the light pipe receives a light shaping diffuser (LSD) and an optical film (48). The diffuser (42) acts to diffuse and distribute the exiting light at selected horizontal and vertical angles and the optical film shapes. In a second embodiment, a second LSD is positioned above the optical film. In a third embodiment, an LSD strip comprising a foreshortened LSD is positioned below the light pipe adjacent the input edge to better reduce hot spots near the LEDs.

Title: Lubricant composition and speed reducer using the same, and electrically operated power steering device using the same
Inventor: KITAHATA KOUJI
IPC: C10N20/00
Filed: 2003-09-25
Abstract: A lubricant composition having particles of buffering material whose mean particle diameter (D1) is 50 μm < D1 < 300 μm added to a lubricant; a speed reducer charged with this lubricant composition; and an electrically operated power steering device having this speed reducer incorporated therein. The buffering action of the particles of buffering material added to the lubricant composition can make the noise of the speed reducer lower than before irrespective of the dimension of a backlash in a worm and worm wheel combination and without complicating the construction of the speed reducer; thus, the noise in a vehicle interior due to the electrically operated power steering device can be abated at low cost.

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un ensemble filtre à chasse et à lavage à contre-courant en ligne, qui comprend un ensemble collecteur, un ensemble vanne rotative, et un ensemble élément filtre se trouvant dans un ensemble logement de filtre. En cours de fonctionnement, le contrôleur tourne d'un quart de tour le bouton tournant de l'ensemble vanne rotative, ce qui inverse l'écoulement du fluide dans l'ensemble afin de procéder au rinçage périodique du filtre au moyen du fluide issu de l'orifice d'entrée du système. Les débris extraits de l'élément filtre pendant le processus de lavage à contre-courant sont immédiatement éliminés du système par l'intermédiaire d'un orifice de drainage. Simultanément, le mécanisme de cisaillage hydraulique du processus de lavage à contre-courant déloge et draine les débris susceptibles de s'être accumulés sur le maillage et dans le bas de l'ensemble filtre inférieur lors du fonctionnement normal du filtre. Le contrôleur remet ensuite l'ensemble filtre en mode de filtrage en tournant le bouton tournant de l'ensemble vanne rotative d'un quart de tour dans le sens inverse.

Title: Electroform spring built on mandrel transferable to other surface
Inventor: ELDRIDGE BENJAMIN N
IPC: C25D1/20
Filed: 2005-10-21
Abstract: Resilient spring contact structures are manufactured by plating the contact structures on a reusable mandrel, as opposed to forming the contact structures on sacrificial layers that are later etched away. In one embodiment, the mandrel includes a form or mold area that is inserted through a plated through hole in a substrate. Plating is then performed to create the spring contact on the mold area of the mandrel as well as to attach the spring contact to the substrate. In a second embodiment, the mandrel includes a form that is initially plated to form the resilient contact structure and then attached to a region of a substrate without being inserted through the substrate. Attachment in the second embodiment can be achieved during the plating process used to form the spring contact, or by using a conductive adhesive, or solder either before or after releasing the spring contact from the mandrel.
