A laminate useful in the manufacture of ovenable grease resistant food containers, which have the added advantage of good release from the food products, particularly those containing high levels of starch and sugar. The laminate of the present invention includes a substrate, preferably of a paperboard, a layer of grease resistant material, such as polyamide, polyester, polyvinyl chloride, polytetrafluoroethylene, or polyvinyl alcohol, etc., or nylon, a tie layer of low density polyethylene or linear low density polyethylene modified with maleic anhydride, and a food contact release layer comprising a blend of polypropylene and polymethylpentene. In the preferred embodiment, the grease resistant layer, the tie layer and the food contact release layer are coextruded onto a paperboard substrate.

Valve metal suboxides having a primary suboxide phase and optionally a secondary suboxide phase, a valve metal phase, and/or at least one tertiary suboxide phase can be present in varying amounts. Also disclosed is anodes and capacitors containing the valve metal suboxides of the present invention. Also, a method to prepare a valve metal suboxide is further described which includes granulating one or more of the starting materials individually or together and/or granulating the final product.

A light-transmission screen includes a diffusing element formed from a micro-lens array for projecting images in a viewing space. The screen generates images of improved quality by varying structural features of one or more lenses in the array so that light is directed in different directions and/or with different optical properties compared with other lenses in the array. The structural features which are varied include any one or more of size, shape, curvature, or spacing of the lenses in the array. As a result of these variations, the screen achieves wider viewing angles, improved screen resolution and gain, and a greater ability to reduce or eliminate aliasing or other artifacts in the generated images compared with conventional screens. A method for making a light-transmission screen of this type preferably forms the micro-lens array using a stamping operation based on a master. By taking this approach, the screen is manufactured with fewer process steps and at less cost compared with conventional methods.

A stabilized platform useable for various purposes to provide compensation for motion in two axes, such as pitch and roll on a ship. The system operates independently of the object to be stabilized and without the use of gyroscopes by using accelerometers, position sensors and a proportional drive controller augmented with estimation and filtering. The mechanical design reduces size, weight, and power requirements, by providing a system including a stabilized structure; a base structure for supporting the stabilized structure; an enclosure to protect the system from environment elements; first sensors for measuring angular displacements of the stabilized structure with respect to the base structure; and second sensors for measuring acceleration data and acceleration vector angles; and a processor for receiving the angular displacements of the stabilized structure with respect to the base structure from the first sensors and determining an angle of the base structure relative to the stabilized structure, for receiving the acceleration data and acceleration vector angles from the second sensors and determining a direction of local vertical relative to the base structure, and for maintaining the stabilized structure at a desired orientation utilizing the angle of the base structure relative to the stabilized structure and the direction of local vertical relative to the base structure.

The present invention provides a container for use in a closed application system for liquid or granular agricultural treatment agents. The agent is introduced into the container through an inlet opening on the upper surface of the container. Thereafter, a valve is removably mounted to seal the inlet opening and prevent inadvertant discharge of the liquid from the container. Hand grips are provided to manipulate the container, and the container is configured so that it nested or stacked on other similar containers having valves extending from the respective inlet openings when the containers are transported in an upright position. The handgrips are also employed to mount the containers in an inverted position in agricultural application equipment. Empty containers may be transported back to a supply station for refilling with the valves of the respective containers still mounted in the inlet openings to seal the openings and prevent inadvertant discharge or leakage of residue liquid or granular treatment agents still remaining in the containers. The reusable containers enable the agricultural treatment agents to be transported between a supply station and application equipment without any direct exposure to the user.

A vehicle is provided with a chassis having a footprint, a load carrying structure, and a support assembly coupling the chassis and the structure. The support assembly is adapted to move the structure relative to the chassis between a stowed position and a deployed position outboard of the footprint of the chassis. A plurality of wheels is configured to roll on the support surface and a plurality of axles coupling the wheels to the chassis are provided. Each axle includes at least one spindle supporting an individual wheel for rotation on a spindle axis. A steering system is adapted to position the wheels between driving and rotation arrangements with respect to the chassis such that in the rotating arrangement each of the plurality of wheels rotate relative to the chassis whereby the chassis, the platform and the support assembly may rotate in unison about the steer axis.
摘要:
A method to determine a distribution profile of an element in a film. The method comprises exciting an electron energy of an element deposited in a first film, obtaining a first spectrum associating with the electron energy, and removing a background spectrum from the first spectrum. Removing the background value generates a processed spectrum. The method further includes matching the processed spectrum to a simulated spectrum with a known simulated distribution profile for the element in a film comparable to the first film. A distribution profile is obtained for the element in the first film based on the matching of the processed spectrum to a simulated spectrum selected from the set of simulated spectra.

A system for secure information storage and delivery includes a vault repository that includes a secure vault associated with a user, wherein the secure vault is configured to receive at least one data entry. A mobile vault server coupled to the vault repository creates a mobile vault on a mobile device based on the secure vault and is capable of authenticating the mobile device based on user authentication information. The mobile vault server includes a mobile device handler that communicates with the mobile device. A synchronization utility determines whether the at least one data entry on the secure vault is transferable to or storable on the mobile vault. and transfers the data entry from the secure vault to a corresponding data entry on the mobile vault if the at least one data entry on the secure vault is determined to be transferable to or storable on the mobile vault.
摘要:
A system and method for communicating over a single virtual channel. The method includes reserving a first group of credits of a credit pool for a first traffic class and a second group of credits of the credit pool for a second traffic class. In addition, a first and second respective groups of tags are reserved from a tag pool for the first and second traffic class. A packet may then be selected from a first buffer for transmission over the virtual channel. The packet may include a traffic indicator of the first traffic class operable to allow the packet to pass a packet of the second traffic class from a second buffer. The method further includes sending the packet over the virtual channel and adjusting the first group of credits and the first group of tags based on having sent a packet of the first traffic class.
