摘要:
A single chamber of a vapor deposition system is used to deposit both Ti and TiN, subsequent to deposition of Al or Al alloy. Because such layers are deposited in the same chamber, the process requires fewer handling steps than the conventional process, thereby increasing throughput. Still further, only three physical vapor deposition chambers of the four of the apparatus are used, thereby allowing the fourth chamber to be used for other deposition.

A computer coupled to a mail processing device enables sort schemes having associated sort parameters, particularly mail item sort schemes and an associated pallet scheme providing pallet location designations for mail items sorted in accord with one or more of the sort schemes. A mailing job to be run by the mail processing device as well as an execution or dispatch date of the mailing job are selected or otherwise identified. Based on mailing criteria corresponding to the mailing job, a server or other computer associated within the mail processing device retrieves a pallet scheme and a one or more mail sort schemes. One or more pallet location designations associated with the sort scheme(s) are updated, based on the pallet scheme. The mail processing device is run on the mailing job, based on said one or more enabled sort schemes.
摘要:
The present subject matter relates to a method and system for labeling a mail piece, and more specifically, to the application of variable sized labels to mail pieces based on the contents of the label and real-time mail processing information. More particularly, the present approach involves calculating expected label preparation time based on configuration of a labeler and printer timing information and/or real-time performance measurements to determine execution of information content printing, label feeding and cutting.

摘要:
The present subject matter relates to automated mail processing techniques for the sorting of in-bound mail for distribution within a large company or enterprise. More particularly, the present subject matter relates to the automated processing of an incoming mail stream by transforming gathered address mail information from the in-bound mail into a final sort code for efficient sorting of in-bound mail. Internal mail delivery point data is imported from an address database of an enterprise and converted into a database compatible format. Address components based on the internal mail delivery point data are identified by filters. The identified address components from the converted internal mail delivery point data are populated into one or more fields of records in a reader database.
摘要:
A clip construction is provided for an article housing, e.g., a cordless telephone housing, which is movable between a deployed position, and a retracted position, in which the surface of the clip is disposed flush with the outer surface of the housing.

The invention provides a bi-material tubing formed of a composite member and a noncomposite member. The tubing has a locking portion where the composite member is secured to the noncomposite member by chemically bonding alone or in combination with mechanical joining techniques. A method of making the tubing is also provided.

The apparatus uses electric power lines to send and receive command, control, and data signal structures. Message signals are superimposed upon the AC power signals present on existing power lines. Transmit and receive sets are equipped with a unique individual coding (for identification and security) to complete the communication links. When a message signal is sent onto the line the unique code of the sending unit is placed at a predetermined position in the transmitted signal, such as in the header. Also the intended receiving unit code is placed in the message signal. In this manner, an individual receiving network at a given location will be activated only when its unique code has been placed into a message on the line sent by another unit. This coding ensures that only the intended location receiver will be able to "trap" the signal. The signals sent will be mid to high frequency and will be composed of low level logic/digital bits.
摘要:
A slurry is produced by adding to a polyimide precursor comprising carboxylic and diamine components at least one foam-enhancing polar, protic additive of the formula ROH, where R is hydrogen, or C.sub.1 to C.sub.12 linear or branched alkyl or cycloalkyl, affording a slurry. The slurry is then brought to a temperature in the range of about 40.degree. C. to about 105.degree. C., producing a homogeneous, transparent solution, opaque suspension, or melt. When heated to a higher temperature the melt foams and cures.
摘要:
A polyimide and a process for its preparation wherein the polyimide is prepared from reaction of an organic tetracarboxylic acid or derivative thereof with a mixture of an aromatic diamine and an amine-terminated butadiene-nitrile copolymer. The polyimides of the invention are particularly useful in the preparation of flexible foams.
