Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100032931Airbag and airbag apparatus - An airbag to be inflated by gas for a vehicle includes a base member for the airbag, an opening and closing vent provided in the base member, and a discharging gas control member for restraining gas from discharging from the opening and closing vent. The discharging gas control member closes or slightly opens the opening and closing vent when an occupant does not contact a front surface of the airbag facing the occupant when the airbag is inflated. The discharging gas control member opens or widely opens the opening and closing vent so as to allow the gas to be discharged from the opening and closing vent when the occupant contacts the front surface of the airbag, and the front surface is pushed in a direction opposite to the occupant.02-11-2010

20120121850Fiber composite material and method for production thereof - A fiber composite material includes fibers and a resin connecting the fibers. The composite material has a high strength while reducing resin consumption and has great flexibility with respect to subsequent deformation. To achieve this, threads are used that include a plurality of individual filaments and a resin which can be crosslinked under an impact of at least one physical variable and/or one chemical substance. The resin is provided in non-crosslinked condition, but is essentially solvent-free, and holds the individual filaments in the threads together, wherein the individual filaments are arranged unidirectional to each other, and the threads form a composite by bonding together at contact surfaces of their respective external enveloping surfaces through resin bridges. The invention further relates to a fiber composite material including resin in a crosslinked state as well as a method for producing the fiber composite material.05-17-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100032043Arrangement for sealing an end section of a tube or of a tubular vessel - The invention relates to an arrangement for sealing an end section of a tube or of a tubular vessel with a sealing plate arranged pointing toward the tube, and a front plate arranged pointing away from the tube. A peripheral seal is arranged in the outer region of the plates and is disposed at least partly between the sides which point toward one another. The invention provides an arrangement for sealing an end section of a tube or of a tubular vessel, which prevents passage of a medium either out of or into the vessel. This is achieved by virtue of the arrangement, where on at least one of the sides of the plates pointing toward one another in the sealing region, there is a projection which, when forced by pressure onto the sealing plate, brings about a deformation of the seal in the direction of the inner wall of the tube or tubular vessel. This results in an increase in the sealing action, and by virtue of the tensioning element with which the deformation of the seal, which arises through the pressurization can be maintained in the unpressurized or low-pressurized state of the sealing plate.02-11-2010
20110031176MODULAR MEMBRANE HOUSING, MEMBRANE HOUSING ELEMENTS AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF - The object of the invention relates to membrane housing elements that are constructed from an inner element, a fiber wrapping, and a casing, and to a method for its manufacture. Due to their structure, the membrane housing elements provide a high pressure resistance with respect to both radial and axial loading. The continuous manufacturing method allows the manufacture of a large number of piece numbers with high precision and uniformity. The membrane housing elements are used for membrane housings in the application fields of nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis.02-10-2011

20120033661DISTRIBUTED IP-PBX SIGNAL PROCESSING - Techniques are described by which an IP telephone system leverages the digital signal processing functions of end-user IP telephones by distributing signal processing tasks typically carried out by a centralized IP-PBX. The end-user IP telephones publicize their signal processing capabilities and availabilities to an IP-PBX, which maintains a resource capability mapping of the IP telephones. When the IP-PBX receive a bitstream for a communication session involving IP telephones and/or legacy phones of the IP telephone system, the IP-PBX determines the signal processing requirements for the bitstream, selects an available, capable IP telephone to perform the requirements, and distributes the bitstream to the selected IP telephone. The IP telephone performs the requisite signal processing and returns the processed bitstream to the IP-PBX, which forwards the processed bitstream to the destination endpoint for the communication session.02-09-2012

20090145838SANITARY SPIRAL WOUND FILTRATION CARTRIDGE - Sanitary elements and cartridges of high performance are described which utilize a thin surrounding tubular shell with an exterior textured surface. Through the use of an overwrap material of particular design and by wrapping an assemblage of sheets of semipermeable membrane material, permeate carrier material and feed spacer material using a high tension, a spirally wound crossflow filtration element is constructed which has a substantially cylindrical outer surface of closely controlled OD that smoothly fits within such shell and which resists telescoping as a result of its radial compression.06-11-2009

20090256561INTEGRATED MICROCHIP INCORPORATING ATOMIC MAGNETOMETER AND MICROFLUIDIC CHANNEL FOR NMR AND MRI - An integral microfluidic device includes an alkali vapor cell and microfluidic channel, which can be used to detect magnetism for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Small magnetic fields in the vicinity of the vapor cell can be measured by optically polarizing and probing the spin precession in the small magnetic field. This can then be used to detect the magnetic field of in encoded analyte in the adjacent microfluidic channel. The magnetism in the microfluidic channel can be modulated by applying an appropriate series of radio or audio frequency pulses upstream from the microfluidic chip (the remote detection modality) to yield a sensitive means of detecting NMR and MRI.10-15-2009
20110031969ATOMIC MAGNETOMETER AND METHOD OF SENSING MAGNETIC FIELDS - A magnetometer and method of use is presently disclosed. The magnetometer has at least one sensor void of extraneous metallic components, electrical contacts and electrically conducting pathways. The sensor contains an active material vapor, such as an alkali vapor, that alters at least one measurable parameter of light passing therethrough, when in a magnetic field. The sensor may have an absorptive material configured to absorb laser light and thereby activate or heat the active material vapor.02-10-2011
