A process for preparing dibromonitro-alcohols, and mixtures thereof with bromonitro-alcohols, is disclosed in which dibromonitromethane, and optionally bromonitroethane, is reacted with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 aldehyde in aqueous solution at an acid pH, preferably between about 4.0 and about 7.0. An aqueous solution of the aldehyde is prepared and the pH adjusted to the desired acid range by addition of sodium bicarbonate, and the dibromonitromethane, which may include bromonitromethane, is added thereto. The dibromonitro-alcohol product is isolated as a separate phase from the reaction mixture.

A leveling and spreading system has been developed that enables the speed and position of the web to be determined from a sensor on a first roller. In a duplex print process, the first roller also reduces a temperature of the media web and an ink image printed in the first side print operation to within a first predetermined temperature range. A second roller modulates the temperature of the media web and ink ejected onto the media web immediately before the web enters the leveling and spreading system to within a second predetermined temperature range to enable uniformity of the ink and web temperatures for spreading the ink in a nip formed with a third roller.

A printhead wiper assembly includes an elongated member having a first and second wiper, a linkage, and an actuator. The linkage includes a clutch that enables the elongated member to move to a plurality of positions in response to the actuator activating a plurality of times. The sequence of positions enables first wiper and then the other wiper to contact the printhead face to remove purged ink from the face.

A phase change ink image producing machine including (a) a control subsystem for controlling operation of all subsystems and components of the image producing machine; (b) melting apparatus for melting solid phase change ink into melted molten liquid ink; (c) a printhead system located for receiving said melted molten liquid ink, said printhead system being connected to said control subsystem for ejecting droplets of melted molten liquid ink onto an imaging member to form an image and a liquid ink imaging member having a top outer imaging surface for receiving image forming ink droplets from a printhead. The liquid ink imaging member includes (i) a substrate member; (ii) at least one elastomeric layer formed over the substrate member and including the top outer imaging surface; and (iii) a surface texture formed into the top outer imaging surface and comprising asperities spaced apart at most from about one-half to about one pixel spot size for providing contact angle hysteresis to pin image forming ink droplets received thereon, thereby preventing ink droplet drawback, and resulting in quality images.

A method and apparatus for preventing ghosting defect, which appears as a lightened ghost image of a previously developed image in a halftone or solid. The defect is due to the different characteristics of the toner that has been reloaded into the recently detoned areas of the donor roll from that toner which has remained on the donor and passed through the reload nip a number of times. A developer unit for developing a latent image recorded on an image receiving member with marking particles, to form a developed image, comprising: means for moving the surface of the image receiving member at a predetermined process speed. A donor member is spaced from the image receiving member and adapted to transport marking particles to a development zone adjacent the image receiving member. A housing is provided defining a chamber storing a supply of developer material comprising toner. The donor member is biased to a first predefined potential. A magnetic brush loads a toner layer onto a region of said donor member; and a charging device charges said toner layer loaded on the region of said donor member to a second predefine potential and wherein said first potential substantially equal said second potential.

In a highlight color imaging method and apparatus, the charging level of a scorotron used for charge neutralizing an already developed image is controlled by using the bias voltage of a second developer housing as a reference voltage for the the grid of the scorotron. The bias voltage applied to the scorotron is offset a predetermined amount from the bias voltage of the second developer housing.
摘要:
A spacer to be used with femoral hip prostheses. The spacer is placed under a existing collar of a femoral hip prosthesis and cemented or tied in place or both. The spacer comprises a U-shaped segment adapted to fit under a medial collar and partially enclose part of a proximal portion of the stem of a hip prosthesis. Spacer plugs are provided to offset the spacer slightly and provide a space which is filled with bone cement (PMMA), securely attaching the spacer to the prosthesis. A distal ledge which lies adjacent the proximal body of the prosthesis keeps the cement enclosed between the stem and the spacer. An area of porous coating is provided distally. A peripheral groove is also provided.

Automatic horn warning signal apparatus for use on boats is compact, unitary, self-contained, lightweight, drycell-battery-energized, is manually selectably actuated for automatically sounding any of nine predetermined patterns of warning horn signal sequences applicable to specified, recognized navigational procedures for marine craft. A small motor operates through a first speed-reducing, torque-increasing transmission for rotating a main cam shaft containing nine lobed cams each having a different configuration corresponding to the desired warning signal pattern to be sounded. A control lever is engageable with any of the nine cams for selecting the desired automatically sounded horn signal sequence. A second speed-reducing, torque-increasing transmission rotates a latching cam shaft at one-tenth the rate of the main cam shaft for operating a latch for enabling a pivot bar to serve as fulcrum for the control lever. For causing the control lever to actuate a valve for releasing pulses of compressed gas into the horn for sounding the selected warning signal sequence determined by a particular cam. The signal pattern is sounded only once during each revolution of the latching cam. When any of four signal sequences has been selected, pressing a start button causes repeated sounding of the selected signal sequence. Selecting the other five warning sequences opens the repeat switch, causing only one sounding of the signal sequence after pressing the start button. Manually depressing the horn immediately sounds a continuous blast as long as depressed.
