Lucien C. De Brouckere has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Electrically conductive device
    Patent number: 4591221
    Abstract: A connector containing male contacts is made of an electrically conductive material. The male contacts cooperate with female contacts buried inside a conventional connector to prevent electrostatic charges from building up between the female contacts.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 16, 1983
    Date of Patent: May 27, 1986
    Assignee: International Standard Electric Corporation
    Inventors: Lucien C. De Brouckere, Ludo M. J. Caers, Karel H. Verbert
  • Device for growing a crystalline layer on a substrate
    Patent number: 4285911
    Abstract: A magnetic epitaxial layer containing the rare earths yttrium and samarium is grown on a gadolinium-gallium substrate which moves vertically in the melt during the growth process. The substrate remains immersed in a melt containing oxides of iron and the rare earths and while moving vertically in its own plane the substrate effectuates a translation movement with each point of the substrate describing a canted 8-shaped loop.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 16, 1980
    Date of Patent: August 25, 1981
    Assignee: International Standard Electric Corporation
