Abstract: A composite sheet material includes a cover sheet, a substrate and an adhesion promoting layer. The cover sheet has a cover sheet material. The substrate has a substrate material. The adhesion promoting layer is disposed between the cover sheet and the substrate. A first side of the adhesion promoting layer disposed towards the cover sheet has an affinity to bond with the cover sheet material. A second side of the adhesion promoting layer disposed towards the substrate has an affinity to bond with the substrate material.

Abstract: A probe is described for analyzing a target using an array of transceivers formed of transmitter/receiver pairs. As opposed to the prior art, the high voltage trigger signals from used to trigger the transmitters are separated from the output signals of the receivers thereby resulting in a simpler and more efficient circuitry. Moreover, the output signals are delayed to compensate for the delays in the echo signals from the target due to the varying distance between the different transceivers and the target. The probe can be used for analyzing pathological organs, as well as many other objects such as gas pipes, airplane wings, etc.

Abstract: An ultrasonic probe is composed of a beam having a fixed end and a free end, with an ultrasonic transceiver mounted on the free end. A driving mechanism is used to move said ultrasonic transceiver to one or more predetermined positions by applying an electromagnetic force on the beam.

Abstract: A flexible, tough electrical insulation is described for use in electric motors, generators, hermetic motors, transformers, and other electrical devices. The insulation described herein includes a layer of a cyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate polymer (PCT), or one or more copolymers thereof. The PCT layer can be used in a film or in a nonwoven mat form, by itself, or alternatively, as a component of a laminate. The insulation can take the form of an insulating tape, an insulating sheet, an electric motor slot liner, motor wedges, or as some other die-cut insulating component. The insulation and products protected by the insulation can be used in a broad range of service application temperatures.

Abstract: Magnet wire is insulated with a paper insulation sheet which is longitudinally wrapped onto the wire. The paper sheet is precoated on one side with a layer of resinous adhesive dielectric material such as a thermoplastic polyester. The outside surface of the paper sheet has the resinous coating applied thereto and solidified prior to the time that the paper is wrapped onto the wire. Just prior to applying the paper to the wire, an edge of the resin coating is heated sufficiently to locally remelt the resin. The remelted edge is then overlapped by the opposite edge as the coated paper is wrapped onto the wire, whereby the edges of the insulation sheet are adhered together. The wrapped wire is then passed through one or more heated dies in order to remelt the entire resin coating, which remelted coating is then drawn back over the exterior of the paper layer. The wrapped wire is then passed through a water quench bath.

Abstract: Improved electrical insulating tapes are disclosed having a poly(ethylene terephthalate) film component. The film has one amorphous surface and an opposite crystalline surface. In a preferred embodiment, a composite insulating material is provided having the film component with a fiber glass yarn strand layer adhered thereto. The fiber glass yarn strands are substantially continuous and uninterrupted, and are substantially parallel to the axis of elongation of the tape, and to each other.
