Patent EP-0760448-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GUSTAFSON THOMAS L
IPC: F21S4/00
Filed: 1996-08-09
Abstract: An integral single piece extruded LED light strip and an associated process for producing such an LED light strip. The light strip includes first and second bus elements spaced apart from one another by a predetermined distance. The light strip also includes at least one light emitting diode (LED) connected between the bus elements that is illuminated when the first bus element conducts electricity provided from a power source. An extruded plastic material completely encapsulates the first and second bus elements and the LED, thereby providing a barrier to protect the elements from damage and to make the light strip impervious to moisture. A process for manufacturing an integrally formed single piece light strip includes the steps of continuously feeding bus elements to an extruder; continuously feeding circuitry having at least one LED operatively mounted thereon to the extruder; and extruding a thermoplastic material at a temperature below that which would damage the circuitry or the LED to thereby encapsulate the bus elements, the circuitry and the LED and to operatively connect the circuitry to the bus elements.

Abstract: Special reproduction data from a special reproduction data generating circuit 2 is applied to a special reproduction data arranging circuit 6. A frame-change flag that changes for unit of frame and a positional sequence signal that is initialized by the frame-change flag and is incremented in unit of special data of a special reproduction data position are supplied to the special reproduction data arranging circuit 6. The special reproduction data arranging circuit 6 arranges dummy data instead of the next frame data on the subsequent special reproduction data positions when a frame is changed so that a positional sequence signal is not initialized more than twice in one repetitive recording area. Thus, it becomes possible to rearrange data using a positional sequence signal in the reproduction.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a semiconductor package and the package. The method comprises the steps of providing a tool (41) for positioning a lead frame (45) relative to a semiconductor chip (21) with the lead frame (45) spaced from the chip (21). A semiconductor chip (21) having a surface containing electronic components thereon and having a thickness in a direction normal to that surface substantially less than the length and width dimension of the chip (21) is disposed on the tool (41). A lead frame (45) is disposed on the tool (41) having a base portion and leads extending from the base portion and spaced from the chip (21), the thickness dimension of the lead frame (45) from the base portion to the leads being no greater than the thickness of the chip (21). Wires are bonded between the leads and the chip and the chip, wires and a portion of the lead frame are encapsulated. The lead frame (45) is disposed on the tool (41) within a volume having the chip surface as one surface thereof and the surface of the chip opposing the one surface as an opposing surface thereof. The wires are sufficiently rigid to prevent movement of the lead frame out of the volume.

Abstract: During print processing based on print data from host computer 100, if memory shortage occurs in RAM 16, information on the occurrence of memory shortage, memory-use status and the like is sent to the host computer 100. The host computer 100 receives the information and allocates a storage area in the RAM 3 based on the information. Form information and the like, registered in the RAM 16 are transferred to the host computer and saved in the allocated storage area, thus expanding an available area of the RAM 16 for printing. When the print processing has been completed, the completion of printing is notified to the host computer 100, so that the saved information is transferred from the host computer 100, and stored into the RAM 16.

Title: Process and device for recovering purified ionic surfactants from washing solutions, in particular for washing contaminated soil
Inventor: GALLASCH BERND
IPC: C09K23/00
Filed: 1996-10-16
Abstract: In order to recover surfactants from washing solutions which have been used to wash soiled parts, in particular to wash contaminated soil, and which contain surfactants loaded with organic pollutants, surfactants are used which have a micelle-forming temperature (cmt) in the washing solution equal to or higher than 40  DEG C. Washing is carried out at a processing temperature higher than cmt, and after washing the surfactants are precipitated at a temperature below cmt. In order to carry out this process without changing temperatures, an aqueous alcoholic surfactant solution whose alcohol content is lowered to precipitate the pollutant-containing surfactants is used as washing solution. Purified surfactants which may be reused are recovered by extracting the pollutants from the surfactants.

Abstract: An electrical circuit arrangement (24a,26)
includes at least three adjacent spaced-apart, elongate
parallel conductors (30a,30b,32a,32b,34a,34b).
Specifically, a middle conductor (30b) has two oppositely
facing first (36) and second (38) surfaces. A left
conductor (30a) has a surface (36) facing the first surface
(36) of the middle conductor (30b) to define a first
electrical coupling. A right conductor (32a) has a surface
(38) facing the second surface (38) of the middle conductor
(30b) to define a second electrical coupling. The shape of
the facing surfaces (36) between the left conductor (30a)
and the middle conductor (30b) is different from the shape
of the facing surfaces (38) between the right conductor
(32a) and the middle conductor (30b). Therefore, the
electrical characteristics of the first electrical coupling
is different from the electrical characteristics of the
second electrical coupling.

Abstract: A bottle having a sterility seal and a method for producing same are
disclosed. The bottle, which can be configured to retain a medicament in powder
or tablet form, features a protective cap configured to engage a transfer assembly
associated with the bottle. The cap includes one or more raised ridges on an
interior surface engageable with a portion of the transfer assembly. A band or
layer configuration of a sealing material such as silicone is applied to the transfer
assembly prior to insertion of the cap thereover. As the cap comes into surface
contact with the sealing material, the ridges cause the material to "roll up" into a
toroidal O-ring configuration, thereby forming a seal between the cap and the
bottle adapted to the dimensional variations of those components. The seal, which
is resilient, is able to withstand harsh handling treatment and pressure or
temperature variations without separation from the cap or bottle, thereby
providing a hermetic seal isolating the transfer assembly and, hence, the
medicament from the outside environment.
