    摘要: Vacuum-insulated glass (VIG) windows (10) that employ glass-bump spacers (50) and two or more glass panes (20) are disclosed. The glass-bump spacers are formed in the surface (24) of one of the glass panes (20) and consist of the glass material from the body portion (23) of the glass pane. Thus, the glass-bump spacers are integrally formed in the glass pane, as opposed to being discrete spacer elements that need to be added and fixed to the glass pane. Methods of forming VIG windows are also disclosed. The methods include forming the glass-bump spacers by irradiating a glass pane with a focused beam (112F) from a laser (110). Heating effects in the glass cause the glass to locally expand, thereby forming a glass-bump spacer. The process is repeated at different locations in the glass pane to form an array of glass-bump spacers. A second glass pane is brought into contact with the glass-bump spacers, and the edges (28F, 28B) sealed. The resulting sealed interior region (40) is then evacuated to a vacuum pressure of less than one atmosphere.

    摘要: A machine having protruding elements 26 and an adjacent abradable seal 18, which move relative to each other, an air-path clearance G between the seal 18 and the elements 26 and an element distance D2 between the sensor 10 and the elements 26, is provided with a sensor 10 which is recessed within the seal 18 by a recess distance D. A clearance/thickness circuit 14 provides transmitted and reflected microwave signals 30,32 along a coaxial cable 12 having a characteristic impedance, to the sensor 10, which has an impedance substantially matched to the characteristic impedance of the cable 12. The sensor 10 provides the reflected signal 32 which is indicative of the recess distance D when the elements 26 are not in front of the sensor 10 and is indicative of the blade distance D2 between the sensor 10 and the elements 26 when the elements 26 are in front of the sensor 10. The circuit 14 receives the reflected signal 32 and provides electrical signals indicative of the recess distance D and/or the air-path clearance G. Alternatively, the circuit 14 may provide only the recess distance D. The sensor 10 provides such measurements whether or not the machine is operating.

    摘要: A capacitance pressure measuring circuit includes a pressure sensitive capacitive transducer and a reference capacitor that are configured in a differential mode to alternately charge and discharge in response to square wave signals. An integrator receives signals from the capacitors and outputs two voltage levels. These voltage levels are provided to a synchronous clock driven selectable sample and hold stage and then to a differential amplifier. The amplifier provides a linear voltage signal proportional to the change in the difference in capacitance of the transducer divided by the capacitance of the integrator.
