  • Patent number: 11183768
    Abstract: A method for deploying a trough structure. The methods comprise: causing a first telescoping segment to move in a first direction away from a proximal end of a telescoping boom; and transiting a flexible element from an untensioned state to a tensioned state as the first telescoping segment is moved in the first direction. The flexible element is coupled to a distal end of the first telescoping segment by a first bulkhead and is coupled to a distal end of a second telescoping segment by a second bulkhead. The first telescoping segment is coupled to the second telescoping segment of the boom when the first telescoping segment reaches an extended position. The flexible element has a parabolic trough shape when in the tensioned state.

The encapsulant composition preferably comprises a liquid diorganopolysiloxane having at least two Si-alkenyl groups per molecule, a silicone resin containing at least two alkenyl groups; a cross-linking agent in the form of a polyorganosiloxane having at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, in an amount such that the ratio of the number of moles of silicon-bonded hydrogen to the total number of moles of silicon-bonded alkenyl groups is from 0.1:1 to 5:1; and a hydrosilylation catalyst. The continuous solar cell module encapsulation process comprises uniformly applying a predetermined volume of a liquid silicone encapsulant onto a solar cell module and curing said encapsulant.

  • Publication number: 20080276983
    Abstract: This invention relates to a photovoltaic cell module and a process of applying a silicone based hot melt encapsulant material (102a, 104a) onto photovoltaic cells (103a) to form a photovoltaic cell module. There is provided a photovoltaic array with more efficient manufacturing and better utilization of the solar spectrum by using silicone hot melt sheets (102a, 104a) to give a silicone encapsulant photovoltaic device with the process ease of an organic encapsulant but the optical and chemical advantages of a silicone encapsulant. There is further provided a method for fabricating photovoltaic cells with increased throughput and optical efficiency when compared to prior art encapsulation methods. The preferred silicone material is provided in flexible sheet with hot melt properties and low surface tack.

  • Publication number: 20080050544
    Abstract: Bottles, containers and other articles are formed from polypropylene compositions that include a reheating agent, such as antimony, carbon black, graphite, titanium, copper, manganese, iron, tungsten, graphite, infra-red absorbing dyes or other infra-red absorbing material. The reheating time for the polypropylene composition is shortened for injection stretch blow molding or thermoforming, and the polypropylene granule composition with reheating agent has an L* value of at least 80% of the L* value for a polypropylene granule control without added reheating agents as measured by the Gardner color test. The reheating agent may be incorporated into the polypropylene composition by in situ chemical reduction of a metal compound, such as antimony triglycolate, with a reducing agent, such as hypophosphorous acid. In addition, the polypropylene composition with reheating agent may be derived from a polypropylene masterbatch with high concentrations of reheating agent.

  • Publication number: 20070121619
    Abstract: A communications system, such as a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM), or corresponding method increases available bandwidth for transmission of data, video, and audio to a customer premise, or curb node for further distribution to customer premises, within a network. In one embodiment, a system comprises a host digital terminal (HDT) including an Ethernet switch unit and multiple optical interface units coupled via a bus. The optical interface units are configured to communicate over an optical communications link with broadband cards of optical network units (ONUs). The ONUs also include data cards coupled to the broadband cards via a bus. The data cards are configured to communicate over end user communications links to end user nodes.

  • Publication number: 20070121628
    Abstract: A source specific multicast may be performed in a network, by inspecting a signal for a source specific multicast channel identifier. The source specific multicast identifier signal is then mapped to a frame switching identifier. The frame switching identifier can be mapped to the signal, allowing the signal to be directed a location based on the frame switching identifier.

  • Publication number: 20070121623
    Abstract: A method and system detects a network connection in a communications system, such as a narrowband communications system, using Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) identification. In one embodiment, a first node transmits a message to a specific second node among a group of second nodes. The message from the first node includes a source Medium Access Control (MAC) address, a broadcast address, and a unique VLAN identification corresponding to a port on the first node. The specific second node processes the message, and then transmits its own MAC address to the first node, along with the unique VLAN identification received in the original message from the first node. The first node then updates stored information about the second node and uses the information in future communications to the second node.
