  • Patent number: 4932109
    Abstract: Apparatus for gas jet treatment of moving, continuous multifilament synthetic yarn and a method for cleaning gas jet treatment apparatus are disclosed. A pressurized gas source for the apparatus is selectively disconnected and reconnected to a conduit which supplies a gas jet orifice in a yarn treatment zone. A pressurized liquid is supplied to the conduit when the gas source is disconnected. The liquid is directed forcefully from the orifice into the yarn treatment zone to remove deposits which form during treatment of the yarns.

  • Patent number: 4932793
    Abstract: The bearing is intended for incorporation in devices effecting linear motions along axles of round section. It comprises a monolithic prismatic cassette and ball chains, disposed inside continuous two-track grooves. These grooves are machined totally in the thickness of the cassette walls, and the non-working sectors of the ball chains are disposed close to the cassette edges and along said edges. The external surface of the cassette is enclosed by the internal surface of the sleeve which is of identical geometric shape. This design makes possible the increase of the number of ball chains disposed in one wall and, hence, of the load-carrying capacity of the bearing.

  • Patent number: 4932983
    Abstract: Semiflexible aromatic polyimides for preparing gas separation membranes and the process of using to separate at least one gas from a mixture of gases is disclosed. The aromatic polyimides are prepared by polycondensation of aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydrides with 20 to 80 mol percent of a methylene dianiline which is alkyl substituted on all positions ortho to the amine functions. The remaining diamine constituent is not so substituted.

  • Patent number: 4932101
    Abstract: A hinge is provided between bodywork and a door of a motor vehicle. A stationary bracket is fixed to an upright of the bodywork and includes a base with a hole. A movable bracket is fixed to the door and a pin connects the stationary and movable brackets. A torsion bar has a wheel/cam follower for engagement with a cam on a connection element. The stationary bracket, torsion bar, cam follower and connection element comprise a sub-assembly and the cam and cam follower are located intermediate the height of the hinge. The movable bracket includes a boss with an opening. Upon linear movement in a direction parallel to the hinge axis, the boss may be disposed about the pin with a connection element and movable bracket cooperable to prevent relative rotation therebetween whereby accurate assembly is achieved.

  • Patent number: 4931782
    Abstract: A touch screen overlay for use on the viewing surface of a visual display device formed from a flexible membrane laminate having improved conductor durability. The flexible laminate comprises first and second flexible substrates formed of transparent polyester material. An array of parallel transparent conductors is deposited on a surface of each flexible substrate. The two flexible substrates are joined together by an adhesive sheet of polyester material. The substrates are joined so that transparent conductors are deposited on the surface of each flexible substrate which faces away from the viewing surface when the overlay is attached to the visual display device. The two arrays, when so superimposed, form a grid-like pattern, separated by the thickness of the upper one of the flexible substrates and the adhesive sheet. A third flexible substrate also formed of polyester material covers the surface of the upper one of the other flexible substrates carrying the upper array of parallel conductors.

  • Patent number: 4931795
    Abstract: A D to A converter comprising a series of stages each including a current mirror having an input and an output transistor (Q1 and Q3) and a current adjusting transistor (Q2, Q4) connected in parallel with each input and output transistor for adjusting the output current from the current mirror as a function of the operating states of the current adjusting transistors. The operating state of each current adjusting transistor is controlled by a digital signal applied to a switch (Q2S, Q2S') connected to the gate of each current adjusting transistor. Each stage also includes a control circuit (Q1C, Q3C) for maintaining equal the drain voltages of its input and output transistors whereby the current changes introduced in the output current of the converter stage are functions of the relative geometric sizes of the input, output and current adjusting transistors comprising the converter stage.

  • Patent number: 4930853
    Abstract: An electrooptic deflector composed of a plate made of a material with a refractive index which can be modified by the application of an electrical field, whereinto a collimated optical beam can be injected in direction parallel to the electrodes deposited on a plate face. Said electrodes are parallel to one another, equally-spaced and separately connected to voltage sources apt to increase the refractive index in the material passing from an electrode to the next. The emerging optical beam is deflected in the direction wherein the refractive index increases.
