Title: Method of testing electronic assemblies while they are being produced
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 1987-05-07
Abstract: The fabrication procedure for a dense microminiature electronic assembly 
that includes a substrate (10) containing multiple interconnection nets (e.g, 12, 
40, 42, 43, 44, 46, 47 in FIG. 2) typically requires that the nets be tested before 
components are attached thereto. Testing is accomplished by probing each net 
only once. The waveform (80 or 86) reflected from the net is then compared to 
the reflected waveform (76) obtained from a previously measured good net or 
from design information representative of a good net. The nature and location 
of any errors (e.g., opens, shorts) in each net are thereby rapidly determined.

Abstract: An optical waveguide coupler comprises two 
optical waveguides in the form of optical fibres 
(1,2) closely spaced apart to allow light 
propagating in one optical waveguide to couple 
into the other. The fibres 1 and 2 have cores (3,4) 
made of materials having different refractive 
indices, respectively. This stabilizes the 
splitting ratio against a large change due to 
a slight change in coupling length, whereby the 
control of the coupling ratio during manufacture 
becomes easy, and deviations in splitting ratio can 
be greatly reduced.

IPC: B29D30/06
Filed: 1989-01-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a vulcanising method for vehicle tyres, the tyre beads of which are arranged on the radially inner circumference of a rim when in the fitted position, the green-cover being vulcanised with the tyre beads folded out to the sides, using a heating press which has two axially displaceable contour rings, for casting the inner areas of the tyre beads, and a heating bellows, as well as an apparatus for carrying out the method. To make it easier to introduce the green-cover and to protect the heating bellows, it is proposed that, for charging the heating press, the contour rings are moved axially together and into a position above the vulcanising position in such a way that the evacuated heating bellows disappears downwards through a space bounded by the lower contour ring, that thereafter the green-cover is slipped over the contour rings, with slight oval deforming of the lower tyre bead, and is subsequently clamped by the contour rings moving axially further apart, the heating bellows at the same time passing into the interior of the cover, and that subsequently the cover is lowered and vulcanised.

Title: Cutting insert of sintered hard alloy
IPC: C22C29/16
Filed: 1990-11-14
Abstract: According to the present invention there is now available a cutting insert of sintered carbonitride alloy and with complicated geometry, said insert having improved efficiency. This is obtained by giving the powder non-uniform compaction at the pressing so that the future working edges will have a higher relative density than surrounding, more "supporting" material in the pressbody. By these means are often obtained surface defects in the form of cracks because of dissolved strains during the sintering.
