摘要:
A head-up display for use in an automotive or other vehicle having limited space. The optical path from display symbol generator to a collimating lens is folded to fit in a relatively compact housing. Also shown is the use of the automobile windshield as a combiner glass for the display. Corrective lenses, and in particular crossed linear fresnel lenses, are used to correct for the astigmatism introduced by the geometry of the windshield. This provides a combination of optical powers for the display lens and the windshield which has the resultant effect of projecting an image from the image source to the driver's eye. The source is a high light output array of light-emitting diodes. A microprocessor based controller for detecting the status of inputs from the automobile is shown. Data is periodically loaded into a random access memory dedicated to controlling the display. When data is not being loaded, a separate address and timing generator is used to cause data from this memory to be displayed in a free-running mode.
摘要:
A gel system comprising a fractal network of nanoparticles and macroscopic particles is disclosed. The gel system is capable of forming an “optical gel” effective to blurrfine lines and wrinkles as a consequence of the size domain differences between the fractal particles and the macroscopic particles. Cosmetic compositions comprising such gels and methods for their use are also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of specifying a batch, lot, or shipment of particulate material by using at least one interfacial potential property value to specify the batch, lot, or shipment of particulate material. A method of representing a grade, brand, or type of particulate material is also disclosed. At least one morphological value and/or chemical value may also be included. The values can be included on a product specification sheet.

A cosmetic film dispenser includes a body held by a user and an actuator housed in the body and used in coordination with a film for delivering a dispensed agent. The actuator includes a supply reel for holding film and a take-up reel for receiving the film. An arm engages the take-up reel to advance the film and a tip at an end of the arm places the film in proximity to the user. Novel films are also disclosed.
摘要:
There is a cosmetic or pharmaceutical product having a container, powder or beads in the container, and the flexible substrate. The flexible substrate has a plurality of grooves therein extending along a part of or an entirety of at least one face thereof. There is also provided an applicator for the cosmetic or pharmaceutical powder or beads. There is also provided a method for applying the powder or beads to a topical surface.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of selecting and/or developing particulate material for a composition comprising the particulate material and a matrix by using at least one homogeneous interaction parameter alone or in combination with at least one heterogeneous interaction parameter. These parameters may comprise at least one interfacial potential property value, at least one value derived from an interfacial potential property value, at least one component of an interfacial potential property value, or combinations thereof for a particulate material and for the matrix. Process and performance maps, as well as methods for mapping, are also disclosed.
摘要:
This invention relates to new compositions and methods for cleaning textile substrates, especially carpet and upholstery fabrics. More particularly, this invention relates to liquid compositions that contain absorbent particles in a flowable fluid dispersion, which dries to a soil ladened powder, that can be removed by vacuuming, brushing, and/or laundering methods. The composition includes dispersion stabilizing additives such that the composition is presented as a stable dispersion or as a composition that may be easily redispersed prior to application.
摘要:
Gel-based lipstick compositions are disclosed comprising an ester terminated poly(ester-amide) (ETPEA) polymeric gellant, a first wax component having a melting point above the sol-gel transition temperature of the ETPEA gellant, a second wax compositions having a melting point equal to of below the sol-gel transition temperature of the ETPEA gellant, optionally a silicone T-resin co-gellent, and one or more oils capable of forming a gel with the ETPEA gellant. The gel compositions are solid or semi-solid at room temperature and are capable of being molded into self-supporting sticks. The disclosed gels provide high gloss films when applied to the lips and/or provide a rheology characterized by a high viscosity over repeated shear cycles.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of preparing a dispersion of a fumed metal oxide in a liquid carrier comprising the following sequential steps: (a) providing a liquid carrier at a pH that effects dissolution of the metal oxide at a rate the same as or greater than the metal oxide dissolution rate in water at a pH of about 8, (b) mixing with the liquid carrier, in any order, one or more aliquots of both a fumed metal oxide and a metal ion source to form a dispersion, such that the dispersion does not coagulate, and (c) optionally adjusting the pH of the dispersion to the pH of the liquid carrier in step (a). The method allows for the preparation of the dispersion to be done with a high solids loading and at a high pH. Furthermore, the dispersion can have a shelf-life of at least about 1 hour or more at 25° C.
