High performance, low volume, non-contact liquid dispensing apparatus and method

An apparatus and method for delivering repetitive, precision, low volume liquid dispensing from a dispensing orifice of a non-contact liquid dispensing apparatus. An elongated communication passageway of the dispensing apparatus is defined by interior walls having one end in fluid communication with a system fluid reservoir and an opposite end terminating at the dispensing orifice. A system fluid is placed in the communication passageway extending substantially continuously from the system fluid reservoir to the dispensing orifice. A relatively small volume of gaseous fluid is aspirated through the dispensing orifice, and into the communication passageway in a manner such that the gaseous fluid extends substantially continuously across the transverse cross-sectional dimension of the communication passageway. Subsequently, a dispensing liquid is aspirated through the dispensing orifice and into the communication passageway in a manner such that the relatively small volume of aspirated gaseous fluid forms a minute, unitary air gap fully enclosed between the interior walls of the communication passageway and a liquid interface between the system fluid and the dispensing liquid contained in the communication passageway. This minute air gap substantially prevents dispersion and dilution therebetween at the liquid interface. To effect dispensing, a rapid pressure pulse with a predetermined pulse width is applied to the system fluid upstream from the minute air gap, causing the pressure pulse to traverse the minute air gap to the dispensing liquid without substantial fluid compression of the minute air gap. This enables substantially accurate, relatively small volume, non-contact liquid dispensing of the dispensing liquid from the dispensing orifice.

Method and apparatus for efficient data transmissions in half-duplex communication systems with large propagation delays

Methods and apparatus for efficient transmission of data by half-duplex transceivers in satellite communication systems are provided. Time reference for the return link is skewed or time-lagged relative to the time reference for the forward link to reduce the amount of guard time required to separate return link transmission from forward link reception by the half-duplex transceiver of a user terminal. The guard time is determined based on a maximum differential round-trip propagation delay and transition times of the half-duplexer transceiver to switch between transmit and receive modes. In a satellite communication system in which a large number of active user terminals are present in a beam coverage, random time offsets are applied to spread approximately equal traffic loads across the time offsets.

Air dispersion of mineral fibers in ceiling tile manufacture

A method of forming a dilute water slurry for water felting a basemat for an acoustical ceiling tile comprising delivering a bale of compressed mineral wool with a density of at least 8 lbs. per cubic foot at an unbaling station, releasing a binding holding the bale in compression, mechanically separating the fibers of a mineral wool bale with mechanical instrumentalities arranged to disperse the fibers to a generally uniform density of less than 2 lbs. per cubic foot prior to passage of the fibers through the tank inlet, and causing the separated mineral fibers to pass into the mixing tank for contact with water suspended binder.

Seat belt system with buckle latch and tension sensor

A seat belt system configured for use in a vehicle includes a seat belt buckle assembly that is configured to determine the both the latch condition of the seat belt buckle assembly with the seat belt tongue, and the tension applied to the seat belt webbing in a seat belt system. The seat belt buckle assembly includes a latch configured to receive and engage the seat belt tongue, a magnet, and a magnetic sensor configured to determine relative displacement of the magnet. The seat belt buckle assembly is configured to cause a first displacement between the magnet and the magnetic sensor in response to engagement of the seat belt tongue with the latch and cause a second displacement between the magnet and the magnetic sensor in response to tension on the seat belt webbing via the seat belt tongue. The first displacement is distinct from the second displacement.

Muffler of scroll compressor

Disclosed herein is a muffler of a scroll compressor. The muffler includes a first muffler having a pair of chambers defined above an outlet of a fixed scroll to communicate with the outlet and a gas passage hole formed at the center of an upper end thereof, and a second muffler located around the first muffler to be spaced apart from the gas passage hole of the first muffler and having a chamber including one or more guidance paths of the fixed scroll. The muffler can achieve reduction of operational noise, sufficient separation of oil contained in discharge gas, and efficient isolation between a discharge pressure inside the muffler and outside suction pressure.

Three-axis motion table

The present invention aims at providing a three-axis motion table capable of ensuring smooth rotations around three rotation axes orthogonal to each other and decreasing an overall weight. The three-axis motion table according to the present invention has an outside frame (3), an (e.g., approximately square) intermediate frame (5), and an (e.g., approximately square) inside frame (7). The outside frame (3) is rotatably mounted around a first rotation axis (2) by means of a pair of both-end supporting legs (1, 1). The intermediate frame (5) is rotatably mounted around a second rotation axis (4) by means of the outside frame (3). The inside frame (7) is rotatably mounted around a third rotation axis (6) by means of the intermediate frame (5). The inside frame (7) has a holding mechanism for a tested model (J). One of the both-end supporting legs (1, 1) is provided with a first motor (M1) to rotate the outside frame (3). The outside frame (3) is provided with a second motor (M2) to rotate the intermediate frame (5). The intermediate frame (5) is provided with a third motor (M3) to rotate the inside frame (7). According to the above-mentioned configuration, the first through third motors (M1 through M3) rotate. The inside frame (7) holding the tested model (J) rotates in the space inside the intermediate frame (5). The intermediate frame (5) rotates in the space inside the outside frame (3). In this manner, rotations are provided around the three rotation axes (2, 4, 6) orthogonal to each other. The pair of both-end supporting legs (1, 1) works as a base for supporting the entire three-axis motion table (A). The pair of both-end supporting legs (1, 1) is more stable than a base (B in FIG. 10) according to the conventional technology using only one vertical rotation axis for supporting one end. The pair of both-end supporting legs (1, 1) is capable of miniaturization and weight saving.
