Title: Mechanical cleaning of foundry used sand
Inventor: GODDERIDGE VOLKER
IPC: B22C5/18
Filed: 1992-03-31
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the mechanical cleaning of foundry used sand by means of thermomechanical regenerations, in which the sand is blown pneumatically against a deflection hood and the mechanical-pneumatic cleaning is performed batchwise in a separate container. The process can be used both as pre-cleaning and as after-cleaning. In the case of pre-cleaning there is a simultaneous drying, preheating, pre-cleaning and sifting, whereas with after-cleaning there is a simultaneous cooling, after-cleaning and sifting. As a result of the batchwise operation, all the quartz particles are exposed roughly to the same friction treatment and consequently, in conjunction with a simple control of the cleaning process, reduced grain destruction is achieved.

Title: Mechanically floating multi-chip substrate
Inventor: BRZEZINSKI DENNIS
IPC: H01L23/40
Filed: 1993-09-24
Granted: 1996-12-11
Abstract: A multi-chip module includes a mechanically floated substrate on which integrated circuit devices are mounted. The substrate is located within a heat exchanger. In one embodiment, a spring or an array of springs biases the substrate upwardly to press the integrated circuit devices against a surface within the heat exchanger. The substrate is displaceable with respect to the heat exchanger, allowing accommodations to differences in thermal expansion coefficients and to non-uniformities resulting from less than exact manufacturing tolerances of the substrate, the heat exchanger and the integrated circuit devices. Another embodiment includes resting the substrate on a conformable membrane that is used to entrap a fixed volume of thermally-conductive liquid. The membrane-and-liquid arrangement mechanically floats the substrate and ensures a proper integrated circuit device/exchanger thermal interface. A flexible multi-conductor interconnect is electrically coupled to the substrate to allow conduction of signals to and from the substrate without interfering with the ability of the substrate to float mechanically. Also disclosed is a module in which the membrane-and-liquid arrangement is used at the integrated circuit device side of the substrate to achieve a deformable electrical and thermal flow path from the integrated circuit devices to the heat exchanger. The membrane adapts to variations in the heights and/or angles of the integrated circuit devices.

Inventor: ADOUL JEAN-PIERRE
IPC: G10L19/125
Filed: 1996-02-06
Granted: 2000-01-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and device for conducting a search in a codebook. This codebook consists of a set of pulse amplitude/position combinations each defining a number L of positions p and comprising both zero-amplitude pulses and non-zero-amplitude pulses assigned to respective positions p = 1, 2, ...L of the combination. Also, each non-zero-amplitude pulse assumes one of q possible amplitudes. According to the method, a subset of combinations is pre-selected from the codebook, and the search is limited to this subset to reduce complexity thereof. To pre-select the subset, an amplitude/position function is pre-established in relation to the sound signal. Pre-establishing the amplitude/position function includes pre-assigning one of the q possible amplitudes to each position p by (i) processing the sound signal to produce a backward-filtered target signal D and a pitch-removed residual signal R', (ii) calculating an amplitude estimate vector B in response to the signals D and R', and (iii) for each position p, quantizing an amplitude estimate Bp of the vector B to obtain the amplitude to be selected for that particular position p.
