Patent EP-0911109-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CHOU MAU-SONG
IPC: G01N21/63
Filed: 1998-10-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring the quality of a laser
process such as a laser welding process comprises monitoring the
light emitted from the weld plasma above the surface of the
workpiece irradiated by the laser beam. The intensity of the
light emitted from the plasma is compared to a predetermined value
of the light emission as determined under process and workpiece
conditions that produce welds of acceptable quality. Variations
of the monitored light intensity greater than a preselected value
can be valuated as unacceptable welds. Such variations can be
caused by changes in the laser beam power, the workpiece speed,
laser focusing problems, insufficient shield gas flow, workpiece
deformation and weld contamination. The process monitors the
light emission for a selected range of wavelengths that correspond
to the major emission peaks of the light spectrum. The method
enables in-process control of laser processes.

Abstract: A remote priming device that is particularly
adaptable to a working machine having a handle section
and an internal combustion engine with a resilient
primer bulb (42), may be designed as a kit and retrofitted
onto the working machine. The remote priming device
includes a housing (38) attachable adjacent the primer bulb (42),
and a linearly movable member (50) constrained to move
within the housing (38) such that the primer bulb (42) is
depressed in response to movement of the movable
member (50). The resilient primer bulb has a vent hole (80) and
the movable member (50) includes a bulb depressing surface (76).
The remote priming device also includes an actuation
device with a first end positioned adjacent the handle
section and a second end positioned adjacent the
housing (38). When a manually actuable member of the
actuation device is actuated, the bulb depressing
surface (76) of the movable member (50) covers the vent hole (80) and
the movable member (50) moves linearly within the housing to
depress the primer bulb (42). At least one spring (47)
interconnected between the housing (38) and the actuation
device enables the movable member (50) to return to an
unactuated state when the actuation device is
disengaged. The actuation device can also be
interconnected with a throttle arm for the engine
throttle such that the actuation device can be actuated
to effect motion of either the throttle arm or the
movable member, or both.

Abstract: A method for producing surface-treated paper, in particular of fine paper, and a dry end of a paper machine that makes use of the method. A paper web that has been dewatered by pressing is dried in the forward dryer section (D1), in which drying energy is applied to the paper web over the entire length of the forward dryer section asymmetrically in the z-direction from the side of the bottom face of the web. This step is carried out by a number of successive groups (R1-R8) with single-wire draw that are open downward. In this manner, shrinkage of the web both in the machine direction and in the cross direction is reduced or at least partially prevented, which shrinkage tends to take place when the dry solids content becomes higher. Paper broke is removed from underneath the drying groups that are open downward substantially by the force of gravity onto the broke conveyor (19) placed underneath. The paper web which has a tendency of curling because of the asymmetric forward-drying is passed to the finishing section (D2) where it is finished while it is moistened and worked plastically by passing the web through at least one calendering nip (20,40) so that the tendencies of curling that arose in the web in the forward drying stage are substantially reduced.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a device (10) for adjusting a
sunroof that contains a cover part (12) for selectively
closing and opening an opening (14) of an automobile. The
roof opening is limited by side parts (18) which define a
longitudinal direction (D). Said cover part (12) can be
tilted as well as slid along (D). At least one cover carrying
element (20) is connected to the cover part (12) and can
be tilted (pivoted) about a first cam (22) and slid along
(D). A fixed guide element (32) extends along (D). A transport
carriage 30 is slidably guided along guide element (32)
and moves the cover part (12). Adjusting means (20-28) for
tilting and sliding the cover part (12) connect the cover
part (12) to the carriage element (30) such that they can be
moved relative to one another and slid along (D). A locking
means (34) independently interlocks the carriage element
(30) and the adjusting means (20). A guide element (32) with
control means (36) allows to effectively interlock the carriage
element (30) and the adjusting means (20) in direction
(D). By that, the carriage element and the adjusting means
are unable to move relative to one another, when the carriage
element (30) is slid between positions between which
the cover part (12) is essentially only slid in the longitudinal
direction (D) in the tilted position, and the carriage
element and the adjusting means are able to move relative to
one another in direction (D), when the carriage element (30)
is slid between positions in which the cover part (12) is
essentially aligned with the roof opening (14) and merely
tilted.

Abstract: A hinge unit can suitably be used for a portable electronic
apparatus such as a portable telephone set comprising a main body and a
swing member to be secured to the main body by means of hinges such
that the swing member may be folded on the main body for the
convenience of storage when not in use and opened from the main body
by a desired angle and held to the open position for use. The hinge unit
has a simple configuration and hence is compact and lightweight and
manufactured at low cost. With each hinge of the hinge unit, a cam shaft
14 is pushed into a spring 13 rigidly secured to the main body 1 along an
edge thereof such that the cam shaft 14 becomes axially unreleaseable
along axial direction X1. The cam shaft 14 has a protruding section 14g
to be fitted into one of the knuckle-shaped end 11b of the swing member
11. As the cam shaft 14 is pushed along axial direction X2, the resilient
tips 13a, 13a of the spring 13 ride over the tapered section 14d of the cam
shaft 14 and, once the pressure for pushing the cam shaft 14 is released,
the protruding section 14 is moved back to the normal position by the
resilient force of the resilient tips 13a, 13a, where the cam shaft 14 is
turned with the bearing section 11c of the knuckle-shaped end 11b. The
resilient tips 13a, 13a pinch the tip-holding areas 14f, 14f of the cam
section 14a to hold the swing member 11 in the open position so that the
hinge unit does not require the use of two spring members as in the case of
comparable known hinge unit.

Abstract: A signal-processor, applicable especially to an analogue-to-digital conversion system,
employs an inexpensive device (ADC 40) having a high temperature coefficient and enhances
its temperature performance by, in an initial calibration phase, measuring the output of the
device for a temperature-stable reference-signal (2V5) applied to its input and, in a
subsequent measurement and compensation phase and at substantially the same ambient
temperature, measuring the output for the same reference signal applied to the input and
measuring the output for an input signal (Va) applied to the input. The digital input-signal
reading is then corrected in dependence on a comparison of the two reference-signal
readings which appeared at the output of the device. When used in a voltage- and current-measuring
ADC arrangement, a stereo differential-input ADC unit (40) is advantageously
employed together with voltage and current transformers (44, 45) having centre-tapped
secondaries, the centre taps being fed from a signal related to the temperature-stable
reference signal (2V5).
