Abstract:
A profiled gasket for sealing tunnel segment joints, which is placed in a receiving groove between segments. The gasket is made of a body of rubber or an elastically deformable synthetic material having an external surface coating which improves the physical properties of the gasket. The coating can be a one-part, room temperature curing hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber base coating
Abstract:
An imaging system. An array of light sources and an array of lenses corresponding to the light sources and having optical axes substantially parallel to one another are provided. The lenses produce collimated output beams. An afocal optical relay having an optical axis substantially parallel to the optical axes of the lenses is also included, the array of lenses being positioned relative to the afocal optical relay so as to form an optical system that produces an image of each collimated output beam on an image plane, each image having a prescribed depth of focus and spot size. The light sources preferably are lasers producing an array of respective laser beams having high intensity and a long waist. A system for writing information on a light-sensitive label includes the imaging system. Methods of imaging and of writing information on a light-sensitive label are also provided.
