Title: Toaster
Inventor: LEAMAN KEITH
IPC: A47J37/08
Filed: 2005-07-07
Granted: 2008-09-17
Abstract: A variable-width toaster is described, in which the food-supporting carriage (5, 60) adapts readily, robustly and in a cost-effective manner to different width settings of the toasting chamber (2, 70). Respective elongate members (51, 52; 61, 62) are mounted to either side of the toasting chamber and are linked together by linking members (53a-53n; 63a, 63b) which form part of the food-supporting surface and are pivotally attached to the elongate members to accommodate lateral relative movement between the elongate members as the width of the toasting chamber is varied. In one embodiment, unitary linking members (53a-53n) link the two elongate members (51, 52) and the elongate members are urged apart by a spring (54). In another embodiment, chevron-like linking members, comprising pairs of pivotally associated linking members (63a, 63b) are employed.

Title: Elevated metal bumps for microelectronic circuits
IPC: H01L23/485
Filed: 1978-08-09
Granted: 1982-03-10
Abstract: Elevated metal contact bumps are provided on a microelectronic semiconductor circuit, with the use of aluminum-palladium metallization as a base for selective electroless plating. The aluminum and palladium are preferably deposited sequentially in a single operation, i.e., without exposing the aluminum surface to the atmosphere. The aluminum-palladium film is then patterned in a single step, using an etchant which attacks both metals at substantially the same rate. The metal pattern is then covered with an insulation layer wherein apertures are opened to expose palladium at selected sites for immersion in an electroless plating bath of ionic Cu or Ni for bump formation.

Title: Anti-creep control apparatus of automatic transmission
Inventor: MURASUGI TAKASHI
IPC: F16H61/04
Filed: 1997-07-03
Granted: 1998-05-27
Abstract: An anti-creep control apparatus has a forward clutch control section that controls the hydraulic pressure of a forward clutch so as to slip the forward clutch when an automatic transmission is set in a drive range and the vehicle is stopped. The anti-creep control apparatus sets a target engagement time that is inversely proportional to the engine rotation speed at the time just before starting anti-creep control. The anti-creep control apparatus controls an oil pressure modulator so that one of a slip amount of the forward clutch and the output shaft rotation speed of the torque converter becomes nearly zero when the target engagement time elapses.

Title: Thermoplastic hose extrusion - with divergent cooling air nozzles in taper mould after cone-shaped extrusion
Filed: 1975-01-30
Granted: 1979-04-30
Abstract: Hoses are extruded from thermoplastic foil material through a divergent conical die with a central air inlet. A stack of cooling rings forms a divergent mould through which cooling air escapes through channels at an angle of 50 degrees-150 degrees (100 degrees-150 degrees) to the conical surface. After solidification, the hose is folded flat and extracted through pairs of rollers. This results in a greater uniformity of the wall thickness of the extruded hoses. The resin is kept clear of the mould as long as it is not solidified.

Title: Label dispenser for containers
Inventor: VOLTMER HELMUT
IPC: B65C/
Filed: 1986-05-15
Granted: 1988-03-31
Abstract: The label dispenser for applying labels to containers transported via a conveyor includes a supply of labels (34) carried by a web (32). A head (40) transfers the labels from the web to the containers (42). A guide assembly joins the head to the supply station. The length of the guide assembly is selected to space the supply station away from the head and from the conveyor to provide space for other equipment alongside the conveyor. Web delivering labels to the head and spent web (44) are both carried within the guide in close proximity to each other to minimise the cross sectional dimensions of the guide assembly. A set of rails is angled relative to the path of travel, the web making slidable contact with the rails and being folded to provide a bending of the path, to accommodate an angling of the head relative to the guide assembly for alignment with the conveyor.
