Abstract: A utility cover identification system including a cover, a tray having a recess and being embedded within the cover, and an identification plate insertable into the tray to engage the tray recess to retain the identification plate within the tray. A method of forming the cover identification system includes the steps of coupling the cover and a tray together, curing the cover to secure the tray to the cover, and inserting an identification plate into the tray and retaining the identification plate in the tray.

Abstract: A wet-wiping printhead cleaning system for inkjet printer incorporating a wiper for wiping the printhead including a treatment fluid applicator configured for placing treatment fluid onto at least one element of the printhead and wiper elements involved in wiping the printhead orifice plate surface, the treatment fluid being placed on said at least one element by direct contact of the applicator, subsequently the wiper wipes the printhead, the treatment being available to enhance cleaning effectiveness, the treatment fluid lubricating the wiper so as to lengthen wiper service life and enhance wiping performance, as well as acting to render unwanted accumulations on the printhead more removable by wiping.

Abstract: A detector of X-ray and the like in which very good resolution of energy can be obtained. The device is based on two basic components. The first is the x-ray absorber in which an x-ray interacts with a film and converts its energy into heat. Because the absorber is operated at cryogenic temperatures, approximately the range of 0.01 Kelvin to 1 Kelvin, its heat capacity is small and causes a measurable temperature rise. The second component of the invention is a base layer of normal metal which absorbs the heat generated by the x-ray. The third component of the invention is the method to detect the temperature rise. This thermometer is based on a normal metal-insulator-superconductor tunnel junction, where part of the base layer is the normal metal. When the tunnel junction is electrically biased at a voltage slightly below the gap voltage of the superconductor, the electrical current that flows through the junction is sensitively dependent on the temperature of the normal metal.
