摘要： The invention relates to a sensor adapted for electrical connection to a power source having an electrical contact means (3). The sensor has a first insulating substrate (1) carrying a first electrode (2) and a second insulating substrate (7) carrying a second electrode (6). The electrodes are disposed to face each other in spaced apart relationship, sandwiching a spacer (4) therebetween. A first cut-out portion extends through the first insulating substrate (1) and a spacer (4) to expose a first contact area (23) on the second insulating substrate (7). This permits the electrical contact means (31) to effect electrical connection with the first contact (23) which in turn is in electrically conductive connection with the second electrode (6). A similar contact arrangement may be disposed on the opposite side of the sensor.

摘要： The invention relates to an amperometric electrochemical cell having a first insulating substrate carrying a first electrode, a second insulting substrate carrying a second electrode, said electrodes being disposed to face each other and spaced apart by less than 500 μm, and defining a sample reservoir therebetween, and wherein at least one, and preferably both, insulating substrates and the electrode carried thereon include an electromagnetic radiation transmissive portion in registration with said reservoir. The walls of the electrochemical cell may be formed from a thin metallic portion on a transparent substrate. Such cells are useful in providing visual confirmation of the validity of the electrochemical measurement.

摘要： A metal closure is described, in the form of a foil lid (1) bonded to a metal annular component (such as a container body or separate intermediate ring). The foil lid (1) and annular component are made of dissimilar metals, with the closure adapted to prevent bimetallic corrosion at the interface between the dissimilar metals of the foil lid and the annular component. The closure is adapted such that the lid comprises a peripheral wall which is upstanding from the annular component such that a gap is maintained between the annular component and an exposed metal peripheral edge of the lid. Further aspects of the invention include: i. a method for making such a metal closure; and ii. an apparatus for making such a metal closure.

摘要： Means are provided for connecting at least one breathing gas cylinder to a face mask or like device in breathing equipment of the kind used by firemen and divers, for instance. The means includes a three-way coupling (5) in which at least one of the connections is comprised of a hose connector (10) which can be adjusted angularly in relation to the two remaining connections (9, 13). The coupling means can be used for different purposes and is relatively insensitive to external influences.

摘要： A film transport mechanism for an optical printer in which the film is positively clamped and laterally tensioned at the position of the aperture between each film advance step, so that the film lies absolutely flat in the focal plane of the lens system of the printer during exposure. This is achieved by providing registration pins and a pressure pad at one side of the film and a curved blade at the other side that move towards and clamp the film. The blade progressively tensions the film laterally against the pressure pad and registration pins.
