Abstract: A Ti-Cu based alloy catalyst material having a composition including at least one element selected from the group consisting of V, Ni, Zr, Cr, Mn, Fe and Co as a partial substitute element for Ti and/or Cu in a composition represented by the general formula Ti 100-a Cu a , wherein "a" is, in atomic %, 30 ≦ a ≦ 50, 0.1 to 20 atomic % in the general formula Ti 100-a Cu a  being substituted with said at least one element, in which a fine Ti-Cu intermetallic compound having a mean particle size of 10 nm or less is uniformly precipitated in an amorphous phase and/or α-Ti matrix. The alloy catalyst is produced by preparing an alloy of the above-specified composition having an amorphous phase and/or α-Ti matrix, and heating the alloy at a temperature of from the transformation temperature T x  of a non-equilibrium phase minus 50 K to the transformation temperature T x  plus 100 K so as to precipitate a fine Ti-Cu intermetallic compound in the matrix. The catalyst material is not only excellent in mechanical properties but also useful as a catalyst for various reactions.

Abstract: An ophthalmological surgery system and method for performing ablative photodecomposition of the corneal surface by offset image scanning. The image of a variable aperture, such as a variable width slit and variable diameter iris diaphragm, is scanned in a preselected pattern to perform ablative sculpting of predetermined portions of a corneal surface. The scanning is performed with a movable image offset displacement mechanism capable of effecting radial displacement and angular rotation of the profiled beam exiting from the variable aperture. The profiled beam is rotated by rotating the aperture in conjunction with the offset displacement mechanism. The invention enables wide area treatment with a laser having a narrower beam, and can be used in the treatment of many different conditions, such as hyperopia, hyperopic astigmatism, irregular refractive aberrations, post ablation smoothing and phototherapeutic keratectomy.

The control unit calculates a percentage full load value for the engine based upon the detected engine speed and throttle position and utilizes the calculated percentage full load value to calculate the injector on time for each gas injector in a gas delivery system for the engine. Typically, the control unit employs the percentage full load value and the engine speed to calculate a required manifold absolute pressure value, and this calculated manifold absolute pressure value may then be employed together with the percentage full load value to calculate a percent allowable load value. The engine control unit employs the percentage allowable load value to calculate injector on time and spark advance for the engine.

Abstract: Processes for tufting substrate or primary carpet backing using conventional double needle bars but in which the needles may be shifted less than a full gauge. Processes of the present invention may employ a conventional double needle bar tufting machine to which is added means for shifting or indexing the hook bar laterally to the machine direction of the substrate being tufted. Timing of shifting of the hook bar may be coordinated with timing of shifting of the needle bar and advance of the substrate through the machine to allow piles to be tufted into the substrate at any desired lateral position with respect to previously tufted piles. The invention creates additional pile color pattern alternatives and eliminates repetitive patterns otherwise necessitated by full gauge shifting. Elimination of repeat color sequences reduces matching color sequences on adjoining edges of adjacent carpet tiles made from such substrate which otherwise accentuate or highlight the seams between carpet tiles.

The linear-movable cam includes an elongated guide protrusion (56) and an interior cavity (30) of the fingerboard, in which the cam rides, defines an elongated guide slot (58) for receiving the guide protrusion and thereby limiting lateral movement of the linear cam. The linear cam structure and the interior cavity have tapered lateral sides.
