Patent EP-1074200-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRADY JOAN
IPC: A46B9/04
Filed: 1996-08-09
Abstract: A toothbrush is disclosed having a handle portion and a head portion carrying
or adapted to carry a bristle configuration. The handle has an end portion, a waist, a
shoulder portion and a neck connecting the shoulder to the head. The waist is
narrower, at least in plan view, than the end portion or the shoulder, and the end
portion, preferably, is rounded. The bristle configuration is such that the teeth
engaging ends of the bristles do not lie in a plane parallel to the surface of the head of
the handle in which the bristles are embedded. In a first embodiment, the teeth
engaging ends of at least a proportion of the bristles lie in a curved line when the
toothbrush is viewed in side elevation. The curved line is provided by a mixture of
concave groups of bristles and convex groups of bristles. In a second embodiment,
the bristle configuration falls into at least two groups of bristles. The teeth engaging
ends of the bristles of the first group, and the teeth engaging ends of the bristles of
the second group, lie in curved lines when the toothbrush is viewed in side elevation.
In a third embodiment, the teeth engaging ends of the bristles form a continuous wavy
line. In a fourth embodiment, the teeth engaging ends of the bristles fall into two
groups, a rearwardly located group, the castellated group, made up of transversely
extending rows of bristles, the rows alternating in height, and a forwardly located
group having at least some bristles extending further from the surface of the
toothbrush head than any of the bristles of the castellated group.

Abstract: A tire air pressure monitoring apparatus includes a
plurality of transmitters (3) provided in respective tires
(2) on a vehicle (1) and a receiver (4) mounted on the body
frame of the vehicle (1). Each transmitter (3) radio-transmits
data regarding the internal air pressure of the
associated tire (2). The receiver (4) receives radio-transmitted
data from each transmitter (3). The receiver (4)
displays the received data on a display and stores the data
in a non-volatile memory (25). When a request signal from a
predetermined external communication apparatus (5) is
received, the receiver (4) radio-transmits data stored in the
non-volatile memory (25) to the external communication
apparatus (5). This allows various kinds of data such as air
pressure data to be easily loaded from the receiver (4) to
the external communication apparatus (5).

Abstract: Integrated optoelectronic devices having pop-up mirrors
therein include a substrate (e.g., SOI substrate) having
an opening therein that extends at least partially
therethrough. A mirror having near diffraction-limited
quality is also provided in the opening and is
mechanically coupled to the substrate by a hinge so that
the mirror can be rotated from a closed position to an
open position. The mirror may be formed from a
monocrystalline silicon mirror backing layer having a
thickness greater than about 10 □m and an optically
reflective mirror surface on the backing layer. The
mirror surface may comprise gold or aluminum and may be
applied to the backing layer using an evaporation or
sputtering technique. This monocrystalline silicon
mirror backing layer is highly resistant to warping or
other distortions caused when stresses are applied to it.
The hinge also preferably comprises a polycrystalline
silicon hinge that provides a mechanical and an
electrical connection to the substrate. A layer of metal
such as nickel is also provided on a back surface of the
mirror backing layer so that an application of a
sufficiently strong magnetic field to the opening will
induce a force on the layer of metal that operates to
pull the mirror backing layer to an upright position. An
electrostatic polysilicon clamp electrode is also
provided on the monocrystalline silicon mirror backing
layer. This clamp electrode can be used advantageously
to clamp the mirror in a closed position even if a
sufficiently strong magnetic field is applied to the
opening. Thus, a substrate having a plurality of 
individually controllable reflective microstructures
(e.g., "pop-up" mirrors) can be provided.

pairs to the two interferometer receivers (44, 46) in a sequential manner, so that a phase
difference is measured between the received signal for several of the pairs of the
interferometer elements (36). Additionally, a plurality of guard antenna elements (38) are
coupled to a second switching network (48). A single guard receiver (50) is coupled to
the second switching network (48), where the second switching network (48) selectively
connects one of the guard antenna elements (38) to the guard receiver (50) in a
sequential manner. A controller (40) employs a suitable angle of arrival algorithm to
generate a best estimate of the direction of the received signal based on the phase
signals from the two interferometer receivers (44, 46) and the power signal from the guard
