Abstract: A laser flashlight employs an emitter disposed within a housing for emitting a coherent light beam having a gaussian spatial profile along an optical axis toward the exit face of the housing. An optical system disposed within the housing intermediate the emitter and the exit face of the housing includes a laser element pumped by the emitter, a frequency/wavelength converter, and a resonator, to form the coherent light into a laser beam. A beam expander receives the laser beam, disperses the laser beam, and transmits the dispersed laser beam from the light emitting end of the housing into the ambient environment.

Abstract: A galvanometer unit comprises a limited-rotation motor with a load element such as a mirror attached to a shaft extending from the motor. In a servo loop that controls the angular position of the mirror, a position-sensor attached to the shaft provides position feedback information. The sensor includes a rotor which is positioned at the null point of the fundamental torsional resonance mode of the rotating system, thereby essentially eliminating feedback components resulting from the resonance.

Abstract: A galvanometer unit comprises a limited-rotation motor, which has axial symmetry of the major motor components including axial placement of the bearings, stator drive coils, and stator back iron with respect to the magnetic center of the rotor, and which employs a cylindrical magnet having significantly uniform properties along its length. The galvanometer employs independently “hard” and “soft” preloaded bearings, which simultaneously minimize axial displacement and account for thermal expansion of the rotor assembly and which improve the overall efficiency of the galvanometer and extend the service life of the bearings.

Abstract: A bottom for a paper cup is formed by advancing a punch against a paperboard web to push the web against a cutting edge which cuts out a circular cup bottom blank from the web. The punch is kept in a forward state to clamp an outer peripheral portion of the blank immovably against a surface of a sleeve. A reciprocable draw is advanced against a center portion of the blank to push the center portion into a circular opening of the sleeve while maintaining the clamping force, to cause the center portion of the blank to become stretched. The clamping force is then progressively released to permit the outer peripheral portion to enter the opening and become bent to form a lip extending at a substantially right angle. The lip is compressed within a gap formed between the draw and a surface of the opening. Because of the stretching of the blank, pleats formed in the lip are only in the form of micropleats that are flattened in a non-folded over state.

Abstract translation: 纸杯的底部通过将冲头推向纸板网而形成，以将纸幅推向相对于从卷筒纸切出圆形杯底部坯料的切割边缘。 冲头保持在向前状态，以将坯件的外周部分不可移动地抵靠套筒的表面。 相对于坯料的中心部分进行往复式拉伸，以将中心部分推入套筒的圆形开口中同时保持夹紧力，从而使坯料的中心部分变得拉伸。 然后逐渐释放夹紧力，以允许外周部分进入开口并弯曲成形成以大致直角延伸的唇缘。 唇部在形成于拉伸部和开口部的表面之间的间隙内被压缩。 由于坯料的拉伸，唇部中形成的褶只是以非褶皱状态变平的微细褶皱的形式。

Abstract: Containers are conveyed through an oven on a conveyor to cause a foamable material on each container to foam and become a heat insulative layer. The containers are supported on respective holders of the conveyor, which prevent the containers from contacting one another. Preferably, the holders support the containers loosely, to enable the containers to wobble relative to the holders under the influence of oven air currents and conveyor vibration. The holders thus do not make contact with any given point on their respective containers for a time period that is sufficient to enable the holders to draw enough heat away from the container to adversely affect the foaming operation. The containers are conveyed in single file, along a serpentine path through the oven.

Abstract translation: 容器通过输送机上的烘箱输送，使每个容器上的可发泡材料发泡并成为绝热层。 容器被支撑在输送机的相应的保持器上，这防止容器彼此接触。 优选地，保持器松动地支撑容器，以使容器在烘箱气流和输送机振动的影响下相对于保持器摆动。 因此，这些保持器不会与其各自容器上的任何给定点接触足够长的时间段，以使得支架能够从容器中吸取足够的热量来不利地影响发泡操作。 容器以单个文件传送，沿着蛇形路径通过烤箱。
