Abstract: A method and system of operating dynamic element matching ("DEM") components of a DEM system with two or more power supplies are disclosed. A connection system of the DEM system is driven with one power supply operating at one voltage. Connection system couples to components that are to be matched and equalized in usage by ordering outputs to components and activating the components according to ordered outputs. A connection calculator of the DEM system is driven with another power supply operating at another voltage different from the one voltage. Connection calculator is coupled to the connection system, and connection calculator calculates an order of usage of components. A level shifter system level shifts voltage levels of signals from connection system to connection calculator, and another level shifter system level shifts voltage levels of signals from connection calculator to connection system.

Abstract: Fire sources or gas impurities are detected and located in one or several monitoring chambers by a device having a main detector for detecting a fire characteristic value or a gas impurity, into which a part of the ambient air in the monitoring chambers is continuously injected by an intake unit through a line, arranged in each monitoring chamber and provided with intake ports. The advantages of gas inlet systems, such as an active intake and a concealed assembly, is therefore combined with the advantage of the localization of each intake port as well as the detection of a precise fire source or a precise gas impurity. To this end, the device is provided with a sub-detector, arranged on or in the area of at least one intake port per monitoring chamber, for detecting a fire characteristic value or a gas impurity. The sub-detector is capable being switched on by a switch-on signal transmitted by a controller according to a detection signal delivered by the main detector.

Abstract: A tapered load plate transfers loads across a joint between adjacent concrete floor slabs. The top and bottom surfaces may taper from approximately 4 inches wide to a narrow substantially pointed end over a length of approximately 12 inches. The tapered load plate accommodates differential shrinkage of cast-in-place concrete slabs. When adjacent slabs move away from each other, the narrow end of the tapered load plate moves out of the void that it created in the slab thus allowing the slabs to move relative to one another in a direction parallel to the joint. Tapered load plates may be assembled into a load-plate basket with the direction of the taper alternating from one tapered load plate to the next to account for off-center saw cuts. A tapered load plate and an end cap may be used to provide load transfer across an expansion joint.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une composition d'encre polymérisable aux UV pour imprimante à jet d'encre qui ne contient pas ou pratiquement pas de photo-initiateur, ainsi qu'un procédé de polymérisation d'au moins une de ces encres pour imprimantes à jet d'encre qui présente une viscosité et une tension superficielle appropriées pour l'impression par jet d'encre. L'encre durcissable aux UV pour imprimante à jet d'encre contient de 20 à 40 % en poids d'au moins un acrylate monofonctionnel, de 35 à 55 % en poids d'au moins un acrylate bifonctionnel, de 5 à 15 % en poids d'au moins un acrylate trifonctionnel, pas plus d'environ 5 % en poids d'au moins un pigment; et une quantité infime d'un photo-initiateur. Dans une autre forme de réalisation, la composition comprend également de 5 à 15 % en poids d'au moins un acrylate fortement réactif et de 0,5 à 1,5 % en poids d'un agent stabilisant. Le procédé consiste à déposer la première encre ou plusieurs encres sur le substrat avec au moins une tête à jet d'encre d'une imprimante à jet d'encre, à irradier les encres déposées avec un rayonnement UV à forte concentration en rayons ultraviolets C (UVC) (rayonnement riche en UVC), ledit rayonnement riche en UVC étant produit par une première source UV, l'irradiation étant effectuée alors que le substrat se déplace par rapport à la première source UV. Le procédé consiste ensuite à appauvrir en oxygène la région proche de la surface du substrat de sorte que la région intermédiaire située entre le première source UV et les encres déposées soit relativement dépourvue d'oxygène pendant l'irradiation de manière à augmenter la quantité d'UVC atteignant les encres et à réduire la diminution, provoquée par l'oxygène, de l'efficacité du ou des photo-initiateurs éventuellement présents dans l'encre. Les encres selon l'invention sont relativement dépourvues de photo-initiateur.

Abstract: Indentation patterns are scored in microwave packaging materials to enhance the baking and browning effects of the microwave packaging materials on food products. The indentation patterns provide venting to either channel moisture from one area of the food product to another, trap moisture in a certain area to prevent it from escaping, or channel the moisture completely away from the food product. The indentation patterns cause the microwave packaging material underneath a food product to be slightly elevated above the cooking platform in the base of a microwave. The indentation patterns lessen the heat sinking effect of the cooking platform by providing an air gap for insulation. Elevating the base of the microwave packaging material further allows more incident microwave radiation to propagate underneath the microwave packaging material to be absorbed by the food product or by microwave interactive materials in the microwave packaging material that augment the heating process.

Abstract: An elastically curved suture anchor is resiliently straightened and delivered into tissue by a needle. When the needle is withdrawn, resumption of the curvature provides leverage for anchor rotation as the attached suture is pulled to fasten the anchor within the tissue. A fin at the proximal end of the anchor further increases the rotational leverage and expedites anchor fastening. When two or more anchors with connecting suture are delivered in series on a needle, the tension of the suture helps to draw the anchors together and approximates the pierced tissue.
