Title: Microwave sensor for high-precision level measurement in a pneumatic spring
Inventor: KOERBER RICHARD
IPC: G01S11/12
Filed: 2005-09-09
Abstract: Disclosed are a device and a method for high-precision level measurement in an pneumatic spring. The level is measured by determining the resonance frequency of a microwave cavity resonator. An electrically conductive flat coil spring (2) which has no spring effect but acts as a cavity resonator for a microwave sensor is inserted into a pneumatic spring. The highest-quality mode (H011 mode) whose point of resonance is determined by a detector diode is excited using adequate injection (1) while the frequency of the microwave transmitter that excites the resonance mode is measured and the level of extension of the flat coil spring and thus also of the pneumatic spring is determined via a previously recorded characteristic curve which is characteristic for the utilized flat coil spring.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for forming agarose or cored agarose beads. The process involves dissolving/gelation the agarose in a suitable liquid, mixing it with a hydrophobic liquid to form an emulsion and maintaining that emulsion at a temperature equal to or greater than the gelation point of the agarose, passing it through a static mixer to create agarose droplets and solidifying the agarose droplets in a second bath of hydrophobic liquid. The beads can then be washed and used or further processed to crosslink the agarose and/ or add various functionalities on to the agarose. Another method for solidifying the agarose droplets is by using a heat exchanger to cool the stream continuously after it exits the static mixer. A similar process is used for the "cored" beads except cores, preferably in bead form, are introduced to the agarose before it enters the first hydrophobic liquid so that the agarose forms a coating on the cores. A similar process with either agarose beads (made by this or another process) or cored agarose (made by this or another process) can be used to add multiple layers of agarose on to the existing beads. An apparatus for running the process is also disclosed.

Abstract: Usually the control power signal lines of a positioning voice coil motor (VCM), driven in a PWM or PSM mode, and the relatively low power signal lines of a read/write (R/W) head runs parallel to each others along a unique flat cable that connects the VCM moved arm carrying the head to the related drive control and signal processing circuitries of a disk storage device. When controlling the VCM at relatively low current levels, both PSM drive signals approach the 50% duty cycle and therefore the PSM commutations become so close each others that may practically be considered concurrent. In these conditions of operation, switching energies sum and reach a level that may be sufficient to inject switching noise from the VCM power lines in adjacent low level signals lines of the connection flat cable. 
     A way of preventing concurrent commutations of a pair of PSM drive signals of an output bridge stage driving a voice coil motor (VCM), consists in establishing a certain threshold level of programmed current to be forced the voice coil motor and when the level of the programmed current to be forced through the voice coil motor drops below said threshold, enhancing the time offset between commutation edges of the two PSM drive signals by a certain minimum time. This is accomplished either by phase shifting one of the signals from the other signal or by broadening the width of the pulses of one of the two PSM drive signals and by narrowing the width of the pulses of the other PSM drive signal, while maintaining constant the individual duty-cycle of each drive signal.
