Abstract: A thermal connector for conducting heat from microelectronic components such as semiconductor chips to a heat sink. The connector includes a large number of flexible thermal conductors desirably formed as elongated "S"-shaped strips or ribbons. The conductors can flex to accommodate tolerances in the assembly and displacement of the components caused by thermal expansion. The conductors may have relatively thin neck sections to increase the flexibility of the conductors, The connector may be fabricated by a process which includes fabrication of the conductors as flat strips, bonding of the conductors to a pair of opposed planar sheets and vertically moving the sheets away from one another to expand the conductors vertically to their final three-dimensional configuration.

Abstract: A coating application system for an arrangement for coating a web of paper or paper board (2) has a smooth, driven applicator roll which, together with a backing roll (5), forms a coating gap into which a coating medium is delivered from the web entry side. The applicator roll is supported against flexing along the entire length of its side opposite to the backing roll. The applicator roll (10) is supported over its working width by a support element (11) which is held on a rigid holder (25) so that it has restricted movement towards and away from the applicator roll, and the support element can be pushed towards the applicator roll by a pressurised flexible pipe (14) supported by the holder (11,25) and extending along the working length. Also claimed is a coating installation which uses the claimed application system together with a doctor blade metering arrangement.   Pref. the support element (11) may be a rod which rotates in a bed (12) which is open on the side facing the applicator roll, which is made of a rubber-like material having limited elasticity, and which is mounted on a rigid holder (13). Alternatively, the support element may be a strip with a smooth surface located in a bed and restricted in its range of movement by mechanical stops. The pneumatically loaded flexible pipe (14) can be divided up into separate sections which can be independently pressurised. Numerous additional features include preferred dimensions and wrap angles for the arrangement.

This invention provides the user with integral information about the contents of the complete set of processed information materials and with a quantitative estimate of the scope in the processed set of those or other user profile components, either individually or in mutual relationship. Information is introduced in the materials to be processed, wherein said information is associated with the user profile components and is reproduced under visual or audio-visual form during the process. Local structures graphs are then formed that show the type of relationship between each semantically independent fragment of the materials to be processed and said components. In a number of embodiments of this invention, the user is provided with visual statistics showing the frequency of use of the various local concrete structures and structures comprising different quantities of user profile elements. In other embodiments, an integral graph is formed that shows the logical sum of local structures, the user being further presented the shape of the entire graph or the shape of its separate components. In any embodiment, the result obtained is used to guide the user in making priority choices among those portions of the information materials that best match his information requirements.

Le dispositif de charge (8) court-circuite l'enroulement secondaire (18) au moyen d'un commutateur (28) monté en série avec une diode (24). Le court-circuit est détecté par un circuit de mesure (26) comprenant un enroulement de mesure (40) et un comparateur (44) qui compare la variation d'amplitude de la tension au niveau de l'enroulement de mesure (40), à une valeur en seuil (46). Lorsqu'un court-circuit est détecté, le circuit de commande (36) qui commande le transistor de commutation (30) du convertisseur indirect passe à un mode dans lequel un faible courant donné est fourni, ce dernier circulant presque exclusivement à travers le commutateur (28). Dès que le court-circuit s'arrête, le convertisseur indirect reprend son mode de fonctionnement normal. Si besoin, le dispositif de charge (8) peut commander le courant et/ou la tension désiré(s) pour alimenter le dispositif de charge (8) et charger la pile (6) au moyen du positionnement du commutateur (28) en position marche ou arrêt.

Abstract: In a self-oscillating power-supply circuit for charging a battery, a switching transistor (T2) is turned off if the voltage across a sensing resistor (R3) exceeds the threshold voltage of a zener diode (D5). The zener diode is arranged in parallel with the series arrangement of the base-emitter junction of the switching transistor and the sensing resistor, so that the voltage of the battery does not influence the peak current at which the switching transistor is turned off. A diode (D6) is arranged in series with the zener diode and can be short-circuited by means of a switch (T3) in order to switch the power-supply circuit from slow charging to rapid charging. A voltage sensor (R8, R9, T4) monitors the battery voltage and eliminates the short-circuit of the diode (D6) when a given battery voltage is reached so that the power-supply circuit changes over to slow charging. A cascode transistor (T1) protects the switching transistor against overvoltage and stabilizes the voltage on the supply terminal (N3) to which a starting resistor (R6) is connected. This allows an accurate dosing of the current during slow charging.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a laminated packaging material (10) comprising a layer (11) of paper or paperboard and outer, liquid-tight coatings (12, 13) of plastic on both sides of the paper or paperboard web (11). In order to facilitate material recycling after use of the laminated packaging material (10), the packaging material (10) is provided with layers (14, 15) of water-soluble polymer between the paper or paperboard layer (11) and each respective outer plastic coating (12, 13), the layers (14, 15) serving as adhesive or binder. At the same time as the adhesive or binder layers (14, 15) bond together the individual layers with good adhesion for the formation of a well-integrated packaging material, they make possible the ready separation or delamination of the packaging material after use, by treatment of the material, preferably comminuted into smaller pieces, with hot water at approximately 40-60  DEG C, whereby the adhesive or binder layers (14, 15) are dissolved and leave behind easily separated fractions of paper or paperboard and plastic, respectively. Examples of adhesives or binders may be biopolymers or synthetic, water-soluble polymers, e.g. starch or polyvinyl alcohol, which are applied in quantities of between 0.1 and 5 g/m<2> (dry weight).
