| 20080237914 | Methods for making fiber reinforced polypropylene composites using pre-cut fiber - The present disclosure is directed generally to methods for making fiber reinforced polypropylene composite pellets using pre-cut fiber fed to a compounding extruder by improved fiber feeder systems. One form of the method includes feeding into a compounding extruder at least 25 wt % polypropylene based polymer, from 5 to 60 wt % pre-cut organic fiber, and from 0 to 60 wt % inorganic filler; and extruding, cooling and pelletizing the resultant mixture of components to form fiber reinforced polypropylene composite pellets; wherein the pre-cut organic fiber is fed from a feeder including a feeder hopper, one or more conditioning augers/agitators, one or more metering augers below the feeder hopper, and a means for controlling the speed of the conditioning augers/agitators and metering augers; and wherein an article molded from the pellets has a flexural modulus of at least 2.07 GPa and exhibits ductility during instrumented impact testing. In another form, the feeder includes a feeder hopper, two or more counter-rotating metering rollers, one or more separating rollers below the metering rollers, and a means for controlling the speed of the metering rollers and separating rollers. In yet another form, a circle feeder may be used to feed the pre-cut fiber. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20080261415 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTION BOARD AND ASSEMBLY OF SUCH A BOARD AND A SEMICONDUCTOR COMPONENT COMPRISING AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CHIP - An electrical connection board includes electrical connection terminals on one face with a view toward connecting with a semiconductor component and electrical connection tracks connected respectively to these terminals. The terminals are arranged in a square matrix having two orthogonal directions. On its face, the board includes a multiplicity of identical adjacent connection groups, each group having N adjacent terminals and N tracks placed along this direction while extending towards an edge of the matrix. The terminals of a group are offset by one pitch relative to the terminals of an adjacent group. The board and a semiconductor component are connected together by electrical connection balls. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090310319 | DEVICE FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTION OF AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CHIP - A device is provided for electrically connecting an integrated circuit chip. The device includes a main board, an intermediate board, and electrical connection balls in a space separating the boards. In the space, a peripheral zone comprises a peripheral matrix of balls, a central zone comprises a central matrix of balls, a first secondary zone comprises a matrix of electrical connection vias linked to the balls of the two adjacent rows of balls of the peripheral matrix, and a second secondary zone comprises a matrix of electrical connection vias linked to balls of the central matrix. The first secondary zone and the second secondary zone are separated by an intermediate zone that includes at least a first part having at least one complementary row of electrical connection balls, and a second part having complementary electrical connection vias linked to the balls of this complementary row. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20090272471 | SYSTEM FOR BALANCING A TIRE - The present invention is directed to a machine for balancing a pneumatic tire/wheel assembly and the balanced pneumatic tire. The pneumatic tire comprises an axis of rotation, a belt structure, an innerliner disposed radially inward of the belt structure, and two annular beads for securing the tire to a wheel. The tire includes an annular spacer structure and a thixotropic gel. The annular spacer structure is attached to the innerliner and is disposed radially inward of the belt structure. The annular spacer structure defines two interior circumferential grooves between axially outer sides of the annular spacer structure and portions of the innerliner extending radially inward toward the corresponding beads of the tire. The thixotropic gel is disposed within the circumferential grooves thereby defining two circumferential gel rings. The gel of each circumferential gel ring automatically, upon rotation of the tire, flows until no more forces, except direct centripedal forces, act on the gel such that the tire is rotationally balanced. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20080304299 | Low voltage LED drive from 120VAC line - A highly efficient DC power supply is converted directly off-line from an A.C. or DC voltage source to have output current or voltage regulation from a low level approaching zero, up to the level of maximum capacity and has a DC power supply voltage and a DC voltage source for operating integrated circuits that is independent of output voltage or current. The DC power supply voltage is connected to a transformer input and switched “Off” and “On” in a pulse width modulated mode at a frequency rate above 1000 Hz and has the transformer output filtered through “buck” stage, so as to permit pulse width control to as much as 90% “on-time”, without damage to circuit components or load. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090097291 | Universal power supply for a laptop - A highly efficient DC power supply for laptop computers and the like is converted directly off-line from an A.C. or DC voltage source to have a plurality of output voltages closely regulated according to the computer requirements and includes a DC voltage source for operating integrated circuits that is independent of input or output voltage. The line supply, rectified if necessary, is connected to a transformer input and switched “off” and “on” in a pulse width modulated mode at a frequency rate above 1000 Hz and the transformer outputs are filtered through a “buck” stage to permit voltage regulation by pulse width modulation from a very low percentage, which may approach zero, to as much as ninety percent “on-time”, without core saturation. | 04-16-2009 |
