摘要:
A housing is provided in which a first electrical connector is positioned, the first connector being connected to a power supply. A second electrical connector is designed to be received by the housing so that a substantially stable and continuous electrical connection is established between the first and second electrical connectors.

A UV curing lamp is provided which includes a curved and reflective surface which may be a cold mirror and may redirect incident UV light toward a band-pass filter. The UV light may be reflected by the curved, reflective surface and transmitted through the band-pass filter whereas the IR and visible light may pass through the curved, reflective surface. The UV, IR, and visible light reflected by shutters and direct UV, IR, and visible light from the lamp are separated by the band-pass filter which transmits the UV light and reflects the IR and visible light.

A UV curing lamp is provided which includes a curved, reflective surface which redirects incident light toward a band-pass filter while bypassing the lamp. A heat sink is provided for the band-pass filter, the heat sink containing a woolen material such as aluminum wool. A portion of the light is reflected by the curved reflective surface and is transmitted through the band-pass filter and into the heat sink, the remainder of the light being reflected by the band-pass filter. The heat sink absorbs the light transmitted through the band-pass filter and dissipates the heat associated therewith.
摘要:
A process for forming thermoplastic composite materials that have improved properties wherein the process is an in-line compounding process that feeds a thermoplastic resin and a filler to a compounder to form a thermoplastic composite material that is then injected into a mold to form an article that includes the thermoplastic composite material. Since the thermoplastic composite material is not pelletized or otherwise processed between formation of the thermoplastic composite material and the injection-molded article, less damage and/or degradation of the filler occurs during processing such that the resultant thermoplastic composite material and/or article has improved properties at the same or even at lower filler loadings than prior art materials. In addition, as the thermoplastic composite material is not subjected to ionic and/or airborne contaminates between formation of the thermoplastic composite material and the injection-molded article, the resultant materials and/or articles have less impurities in the final materials and/or articles than those formed in two-step processes.
摘要:
A method is provided to perform anti-aging techniques in an informational display. An informational display is located on the front bezel of a consumer recording device that displays information related to the content being recorded or played or the operation of the device. To increase the life of the display, displayed text is shifted within the display so that pixel use in the display is more evenly distributed with the pixels in the display. To determine the direction and shape of the shift, real-time calculations of pixel use are made or a simulator is used to compute the probable use of each pixel in the display over a certain period of time. Another anti-aging technique is to dim the display of information after a specified amount of time of display at normal brightness.

A dust pan form and design that permits the user to clean-up more effectively dust or debris from a surface. The dust pan has the particular feature of having an element that is flexible and transparent so as to conform to the surface being cleaned while permitting the use to see through the element to the surface.
