Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of a hydroentangled product comprising cellulose fibers, wherein a Lyocell melt-blown web is subjected to a treatment by fine high-pressure jets of water, characterized in that the web is subjected to said fine high-pressure jets in at least three treatment steps the pressure of said high-pressure jets is 75 bar or less in each of said treatment steps. Furthermore, the invention relates to products obtainable by said products, and uses thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of a hydroentangled product comprising cellulose fibers, which includes the steps of (a) extruding a solution comprising cellulose dissolved in an aqueous tertiary amine-oxide through a spinneret into an air gap, thereby forming filaments (b) drawing said filaments by means of a gaseous stream (c) collecting and precipitating said filaments in order to form a web (d) bonding said web by means of a hydroentanglement process (e) contacting said filaments in the air gap with a medium which at least partially coagulates the filaments. Furthermore, the invention relates to products obtainable by said products, and uses thereof.

Abstract: Service processors within a system are self-clustered. The system can also include an operating system or other software code, a management console, or both. The operating system communicates with the cluster of service processors, where the service processors are self-clustered or otherwise, such as through a memory shared by at least all the service processors. The operating system therefore need not be aware which of the service processors performs a given function. The console communicates with the cluster of service processors, where the service processors are self-clustered or otherwise, through any service processor of the cluster. The console therefore also need not be aware that the service processors have been clustered to perform functionality for the console.

Abstract: A shielded electrical connector is provided for mounting on a printed circuit board. The connector includes a dielectric housing mounting a plurality of conductive terminals having tail portions for connection to appropriate circuit traces on the printed circuit board. A shielding shell is mounted over the dielectric housing and includes a top wall, opposite side walls and a rear wall. A bottom portion of the rear wall closest to the printed circuit board is connected to a ground pad on the circuit board by a surface connection.

Abstract: A portable smart card reader assembly having an upper housing unit (25) having a first mounting structure (28,29), and a lower housing unit having a second mounting structure (20, 21), the upper housing unit (25) and the lower housing unit (12) together defining a cavity (50) for accommodating an electronic insert (17), the electronic insert (17) having a connector (2) for establishing electric contact with an associated electronic device and a contact array (8) having terminals (51, 52) designed to mate with contact pads on a smart card (7) upon insertion of the smart card (7) into the portable smart card reader assembly (1), wherein upon mating the upper housing unit (25) with the lower housing unit (12) the first mounting structure (28,29) and the second mounting structure (20, 21) move into locking engagement.

Abstract: A mounting arrangement (1) for connecting an electrical device (2), typically a microphone, within a wireless telephone, is disclosed. The mounting arrangement comprises a housing (3) having an electrical device receiving portion (4). An enveloping portion (5) adapted to envelop the electrical device (2) is also provided, the enveloping portion (5) having at least two outwardly projecting retention tabs (6), the tabs adapted to co-operate and engage with corresponding retention portions (7) within the receiving portion (4). On full insertion of the enveloped electrical device within the receiving portion, the retention tabs engage with the retention portions, thereby securing the enveloping portion and enveloped electrical device within the receiving portion. Both the housing and the electrical device are provided with electrical terminals or connectors such that on securing the enveloped electrical device within the receiving portion electrical engagement between the inserted device and housing is effected.

Abstract: An insulation displacement electrical connector assembly is disclosed for electrically terminating the conductors of a multi-conductor insulated flat cable. A connector base has a plurality of terminal-receiving passages. A connector cover is positionable on the base to provide a cable-receiving passage therebetween. The cable-receiving passage traverses the terminal-receiving passages. Complementary interengaging latches are provided between the base and the cover to hold the base and cover together clamping the cable in the cable-receiving passage. A plurality of insulation displacement terminals are movably mounted in the terminal-receiving passages for movement between inactive positions out of engagement with the conductors of the cable and insulation-displacement positions piercing the insulation of the cable and electrically terminating the conductors.

Abstract: A vibrator motor holder for a wireless telephone vibrator motor is described. The holder is integrally formed on the I/O connector of the telephone. The holder comprises a device insertion cavity adapted to receive the vibrator motor. The inner walls of the cavity are dimensioned so as to correspond with the inserted vibrator motor, thereby ensuring a snug fit when the motor is contained therein. A locking piece is provided which is moveable across an entry port of the cavity. The obstruction of a portion of the entry port by the locking piece is sufficient to contain the motor within the cavity.

Abstract: An electrical switch assembly includes a first switch contact stamped and formed of sheet metal material and including a base. An integral spring contact arm is folded into cantilevered position back over the base. The spring contact arm has a distal end with a first contact surface facing away from the base. A second switch contact has a second contact surface facing the base of the first switch contact in position of opposing engagement with the first contact surface. Therefore, movement of the spring contact arm of the first switch contact toward the base thereof causes the first contact surface to move away from the second contact surface of the second switch contact.
