Filed: 1996-11-27
Abstract: In a soot-deposition container, raw material gas and at the tip of a starting glass rod, combustion gas, and carrier gas are supplied to a core-depositing burner and raw material gas, combustion gas, carrier gas, and gas for doping of fluorine are supplied to a cladding-depositing burner, thereby forming porous glass soot comprised of glass soot for core and glass soot for cladding. With growth of soot, the supply amount of the fluorine-doping gas is increased while supply amounts of the other gases are kept constant. Next, dehydration process and transparentizing process of soot are carried out to obtain a glass preform for optical fiber. Fabricated in this way is the glass preform for optical fiber having the silica glass portion doped with low-concentration fluorine with high uniformity in the growth direction.

Abstract: A joint for joining together a first sheet part (1) and a second sheet part (3). A hole (5) is made through the first sheet part for penetration of a yoke (6) comprised in the second sheet part.

Abstract: A boiler having a combustor for combusting an air/gas fuel mixture, the combustor including a heat exchanger which conducts coolant therethrough surrounding the combustion chamber and a fan coupled to an air line provides a flow rate of air in the air line. A gas line is coupled at one end to a source of gas and at another end to the air line so as to produce a mixture of gas and air. Means for measuring a property of the air/gas fuel mixture characteristic of its combustibility are utilized. A valve coupled to said gas line is operative to control a flow rate of gas in response to a control signal from the means for measuring. A temperature sensor takes a temperature measurement of the coolant after passing through the heat exchanger and transmits the temperature measurement to the speed control unit. The speed control unit slows down the speed of the fan when the coolant temperature approaches a preset limit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rollator (1) with walking frame function, in which the rollator (1) is braked on being placed under loading. This is attained in that the rear wheels (3) are included in a wheel and brake unit, in which the wheels (3) are rotatably journalled in relation to a brake arm (11). The wheel fork (4) which supports the rear wheels (3) is pretensioned via a spring (10) to a position which holds the brake surface (12) of the brake-arm (11) at a relatively slight distance from the wheel (3). When the rollator is placed under loading, the wheel fork (4) is rotated in relation to the frame (16) of the rollator (1), the wheel (3) moving up and against the brake surface (12) of the brake-arm (11). When the loading ceases, the spring (10) moves the wheel (3) away from the brake surface (12) of the brake arm (14).

Abstract: Dental amalgam as an electrode material in voltammetry is provided having a very high overpotential to hydrogen. Accordingly, trace analyses can be carried out at potentials sufficiently negative to allow determination of e.g. zinc, cobalt, nickel and iron at trace levels. Such analyses have not previously been possible except by using a mercury or a mercury film electrode. Such determinations are very important for field and online analyses of pollutants in soil and groundwater, and the electrode can be used repeatedly.

Title: Improvements in touch sensitive displays
Filed: 2012-05-31
Abstract: A method of operating a capacitive touch sensitive display that includes an input array of electrodes and output array conductors (420, 410) in which touch is determined by reference to a proportional or percentage difference between a measured value at an intersect point and a base touch value/offset value (at e.g. the intersect point). The base touch value is indicative of there being no touch on the sensor (at for example the particular intersection point). Touch is determined by comparing the proportional difference to a predetermined proportional touch threshold. This method takes into account that voltage levels may not uniform across the senor and addresses the problems of non-uniform coupling across a touch sensor.
