Abstract: There is provided an inflatable cushion inflated through a single inflation valve. A pair of inflated panels held in place by at least one tie strap connecting the panels rest beneath each end of the bottom of an article to be protected. The cushion has a pair of inflatable end chambers interconnected to the bottom panels and a pair of inflatable side chambers interconnected to the end chambers, which when inflated protect the ends and sides of the article. This is facilitated by internal openings which allow the inflated panels to easily bend underneath the ends of the article and around the corners. There are recesses at each corner which extend from each corner of one internal opening toward a peripheral edge of the cushion to provide a wedge-like portion of the side chambers. In one of the embodiments, an additional pair of internal openings facilitates a pair of top inflatable chambers interconnected to the end chambers to rest on the top of the article. In another embodiment of the present invention, the chamber protecting the upper portion of the article includes a single inflatable chamber which folds across the top of the article. The top chamber has an internal opening in the middle thereof formed by a weld. Extending inwardly from the weld are portions of each thermoplastic sheet which remain after the cushion has been cut and adapted to hold a thin article.

Abstract: The connector part has an end-sided connection face for a water tap. A water outlet bore extends from the connection face, and contains a ventilation unit (2) in the form of a multiport valve (20). The outflowing water impacts axially on the valve. The valve has two ring-shaped seats (201,202) and a valve closure member (21) movable between the seats. Water outlet is radial between the valve seats. The end section of the bore behind the downstream valve seat is connected to the atmosphere. The bore is a horizontal dead end bore, and its end cuts across a transverse bore. This forms the connection to the atmosphere. The bore also contains a water drip discharge channel.

Abstract: The invention relates to an integrated microphone/amplifier unit, in particular for a hearing aid, which is largely insensitive to interference signals such as, for instance, could be caused by GSM telephone apparatuses because capacitive couplings are arranged between the amplifier output and ground, and between the feed and ground. These capacitive couplings are made by the thick-film technique and can be provided with a separate ground connection. In one embodiment the capacitive couplings comprise capacitors, of which the output and feed connections themselves form part. In another embodiment the capacitive couplings comprise capacitors that are formed on the back of a carrier. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multi-rate, multi-head positioner (150) receives and processes unpanelized positioning commands to actuate slow stages (56, 58) and multiple fast stages (154) that are mounted on one of the slow stages to simultaneously position multiple tools (156) relative to target locations (162) on multiple associated workpieces (152). Each of the fast stages is coupled to a fast stage signal processor (172) that provides corrected position data to each fast stage positioner to compensate for fast stage nonlinearities and workpiece placement, offset, rotation, and dimensional variations among the multiple workpieces. When cutting blind via holes in etched circuit boards (ECBs), improved throughput and process yield are achieved by making half of the tools ultraviolet ("UV") lasers, which readily cut conductor and dielectric layers, and making the other half of the tools are infrared ("IR") lasers, which readily cut only dielectric layers. The UV lasers are controlled to cut an upper conductor layer and a portion of an underlying dielectric layer, and the IR lasers are controlled to cut the remaining dielectric layer without cutting through or damaging a second underlying conductor layer. The throughput is increased by cutting conductor layers in unprocessed ECBs while concurrently cutting dielectric layers in ECBs that have already had their conductor layer cut. The process yield is increased by performing a workpiece calibration prior to each cutting step to account for any ECB placement, offset, rotation, and dimensional variations.

Title: Dismountable facade scaffold

Granted: 2000-05-10
Abstract: A dismantlable, multi-story facade scaffold is formed of at least four vertical support elements and floor plates and railing elements which are mounted thereto. An additional scaffold story is erected by coupling an additional vertical support element to an already existing one and pivotally attaching one end of a railing element thereto at a location above where the floor plate for the next story will be placed. The other end of that railing element is pivotally attached to another vertical support element. This other vertical support element is then raised, thereby pivotally moving the rail element relative to the respective vertical support element until the rail element is in a horizontal position and the vertical support element is in the vertical position. The other vertical support element is now attached to the upper end of a corresponding vertical support of the lower scaffold story. Thereafter the floor plate for the additional scaffold story is installed so that a worker stepping on the floor plate of the higher story is protected from the very beginning against falling off. The connections between the ends of the railing and the respective vertical support elements are disengageable when they are in relatively inclined positions and become locked when the railing is perpendicular to the support elements. The scaffold is dismantled by reversing this procedure.

Abstract: The method includes using the radiation of an electromagnetic wave on the surface of at least one photonic mixing element having at least one pixel. The pixel has at least two light sensitive modulation photogates (Gam,Gbm) and allocated accumulation gates (Ga,Gb). Modulation photogate voltages (Uam(t),Ubm(t)) are applied at the modulation photogates, which are formed as Uam(t)) = Uo + Um(t) and Ubm(t) = Uo - Um(t). A DC voltage is applied at the accumulation gates (Ga,Gb), with an amplitude equal to the sum from Uo and the amplitude of the modulation voltage Um(t). The charge carrier produced by the incident electromagnetic wave in the spatial charge zone of the modulation gates, are exposed to the potential voltage drops of a drift field, depending on the polarity of the modulation voltages, and drift to the corresponding accumulation gate (Ga,Gb). The drift charges (qa,qb) are derived respectively at the accumulation gates.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for driving an electrochromic element which consists of at least the following layers: a first electrode layer; a first layer in which ions can be reversibly intercalated; a transparent ion-conducting layer; a second layer in which ions can be reversibly intercalated; and a second electrode layer. One of the layers in which ions can be reversibly intercalated is an electrochromic layer and the other layer acts as a counter-electrode to the electrochromic layer. A voltage with values in a redox stability range of the electrochromic layer system is applied to the electrode layers and causes a change in color. The process is characterised in that the current (I) which flows through the electrochromic element is continuously measured. During a starting phase of the change in color, the voltage (U) rises or diminishes continuously to a maximum, predetermined, temperature-dependent end value (Umax). The extent to which the end value depends on the temperature varies with the model of the electrochromic element, but not with the surface area of the electrochromic element which changes color. During the change in color, the voltage (U) is controlled depending on the current (I) and does not exceed the end value (Umax).
