Abstract: Broadly, embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to a PCB data board that allows for either a single configuration or to be deployed in conjunction with another configuration such as being able to control a radio and sending PLI (Positional Location Information) data. The PCB data board and associated code can accommodate multiple different configurations. The PCB data board may facilitate multiple radio connectivity, enhanced configuration utilities, and additional functions.

Abstract: A sample plate for use in an X-ray powder diffraction apparatus, the sample plate comprising a body having an exterior circumference which rotatable about a central axis, and a self contained rotating mechanism for rotating a sample holder containing a powder about a longitudinal axis, wherein the longitudinal axis intersects central axis; and wherein rotation about the central axis and rotation about the longitudinal axis occur simultaneously.

Abstract: An infrared convection paint baking oven comprising a tunnel having an entrance and exit, the tunnel having top and side walls equipped with air ducts that communicate with a at least one air pressure blower to form an air plenum in the interior of said tunnel. The oven is equipped with at least one exhaust to re-circulate heated air and vent moisture and volatiles from said tunnel. The exhaust communicates said pressure blower with air make up and an RTO. The re-circulated air flow is divertible from the exhaust to the furnace to control temperature and VOC emissions. Infrared light assemblies are arranged in said tunnel interior on the top and side walls such that air from said plenum is circulated around said light assemblies to form a convection air current. The light assemblies are in close proximity to each other at the entrance and along a distance of said tunnel to form a warm up zone.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a modular waterless, low VOC and CO2 emission system to produce thermoplastic resin fascia and exterior components for automotive uses and a method of performing the same. The system and method disclosed have reduced environmental aspects and are adaptable to be used to accommodate any number of products.

Abstract: An infrared convection paint baking oven comprising; a top, a bottom and sidewalls extending substantially unbroken therebetween to define a tunnel having length, width and height, an interior, an exterior, an entrance and exit; said tunnel adapted to bake at least one article moved along the length of the tunnel from the entrance to the exit; said top and side walls equipped with air ducts that communicate with a at least one air pressure blower to form an air plenum in said interior of said tunnel; said paint baking oven further equipped with at least one exhaust to re-circulate heated air and vent moisture and volatiles from said tunnel; said exhaust in air communication with said pressure blower with air make up and a RTO; said re-circulated air flow at least partially divertible from said exhaust to said furnace to control temperature and VOC emissions; infrared light assemblies arranged in said tunnel interior on the top and side walls such that air from said plenum is circulated around said light assem

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein to provide die identification. For example, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a wafer patterning technique is disclosed that provides multiple-exposure patterning to provide a unique identifying mark for each die on a wafer.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the tartrate salts of 5,8,14-triazatetracyclo[10.3.1.02,11.04,9]-hexadeca-2(11),3,5,7,9-pentaene: and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. The present invention in particular is directed to the L-tartrate salt, and further to the various polymorphs of the L-tartrate salt, including two distinct anhydrous polymorphs (referred to herein as Forms A and B) and a hydrate polymorph (referred to herein as Form C). In addition, the present invention is also directed to the D-tartrate salt of 5,8,14-triazatetracyclo[10.3.1.02,11.04,9]-hexadeca-2(11),3,5,7,9-pentaene and the various polymorphs thereof; as well as the D,L-tartrate salt thereof and its polymorphs, and the meso-tartrate salt thereof and its polymorphs.

Abstract: An in-mold applicator and method for spraying a coating on difficult-to-reach surfaces of a mold is disclosed. The applicator includes a spray head and a base portion at an oblique angle to each other. The outer dimensions of the body portion and the spray head are sufficiently small so that taken in combination with the oblique angle, the applicator and method can enhance the spraying of the coating to difficult-to-reach surfaces within the mold.

Abstract: A method of forming a polyurethane skin for an interior part of a vehicle having an in-mold coating. The in-mold coating composition is applied with an air assisted spray nozzle having an atomizing air stream that is heated to a temperature above ambient temperature. The heated air stream heats the in-mold coating composition as it is atomized and sprayed toward a forming surface by the spray nozzle. The layer of polyurethane is then applied over the in-mold coating layer to form a polyurethane skin. A heater heats compressed air before the compressed air is provided to the spray gun.

Abstract: A post-mix spray nozzle assembly is provided with a central nozzle forming a first hollow conical spray pattern and a coaxially aligned annular nozzle forming a second hollow conical spray pattern. The first and second hollow conical spray patterns intersect in space remote from the nozzle and form a hollow circular spray pattern.

Abstract: A switching device is interposed between a conventional physiological information monitor and a plurality of conventional sensors for a particular physiological function. The sensors are located on different parts of the body. Each of the plurality of sensors may be selected through the switching device to give a continuous indication of a particular physiological function in a localized area of the body. The device prevents the loss of information due to interrupted blood flow in a particular part of the body or the failure of a sensor.

Abstract: A switching device is interposed between a conventional oximeter and a plurality of conventional photosensors. The photosensors are located on different extremities of the body. The switching device may be operated in the manual mode or an automatic mode. In the manual mode each different photosensor may be individually selected to provide the input signal to the oximeter. In the automatic mode, the switching device scans the incoming signals from the different photosensors and forwards the best, strongest or least distorted signal to the oximeter. The device prevents the loss of oximetery information due to interrupted blood flow in a particular part of the body or the failure of a sensor.
