Abstract: The invention relates to the provision of a cooling effect on
electrical or electronic components which are within a housing and
which in combination form electrical apparatus. Conventional
cooling means such as fans can be too noisy for many forms of
electrical apparatus and in accordance with the present invention
there is provided a heat dissipation formation which is provided
with an inlet and outlet connected by a passage within the housing.
The formation can be formed to encourage the flow of air through
the same and can be formed to pass close to or in contact with
components which need to be cooled. The flow of air allows heat to
be transferred to the same and the heated air flows out of the
housing thereby cooling the components in the same.

upper surface of the polishing pad, a substrate holding mechanism (6)
holding a substrate, a substrate rotating shaft (8) rotating the substrate

rotation of the substrate axis about the eccentric axis is set larger than
angular velocity of rotation of the substrate holding mechanism about the
substrate axis. Thus, contact area between a small area on the substrate
and the polishing pad is increased, bias wear of abrasive grains on the
polishing pad is prevented, clogging of the polishing pad is suppressed, and
new abrasive grains and new chemicals can be supplied with high efficiency
to each area of the substrate. Thus, polishing rate is improved.

Abstract: A method is described for making a reinforcing wire frame for embedding in a moulded
polymer support frame (10) over which woven wire cloth (158,159) is to be stretched and secured to form
a sifting screen. The method involves locating lengths of cut wire (50) substantially equally
spaced apart in a jig to form a first array. A second array of lengths of cut wire (56,60) is located
over the first array with the lengths of wire in the second array being substantially at right
angles to those of the first array. The lengths of wire in the first and second arrays are
resistance welded at points of mutual intersection so as to form a first substantially
rectilinear matrix. Lengths of cut wire (48) are located in a jig to form a third array, in which
the lengths are also substantially equally spaced apart, and a fourth array of lengths of cut
wire (54,58,62,64) is arranged over the third array with the lengths of the fourth array substantially at
right angles to the lengths of wire of the third array, and the wires of the third and fourth
arrays are also resistance welded at points of mutual intersection to form a second
substantially rectilinear matrix. Protruding lengths of wire on at least two sides of the four
sides of one of the rectilinear matrices are bent using a press so as to bend each protruding
length first in a generally upward sense and then at a point nearer its end in a generally
downward sense so that an end region of each protruding length extends parallel to a plane
of the matrix but is displaced therefrom. Thereafter the displaced ends of the protruding
lengths of wire of one matrix are resistance welded to protruding lengths of wire of the
other matrix, to form the frame.
