| 20090324941 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FLEXIBLE COMPOSITE ELASTOMERIC POLYURETHANE SKIN - The present invention relates to a method for producing a flexible elastomeric composite polyurethane skin comprising a first and a second flexible polyurethane layer obtained by spraying a first and a second polyurethane reaction mixture onto one another. The first reaction mixture is an aliphatic polyurethane reaction mixture which is free of lead and formulated to produce a polyurethane elastomer having a flexural modulus smaller than 35 MPa. The second reaction mixture is an aromatic polyurethane reaction mixture producing a polyurethane elastomer having a smaller flexural modulus. The thickness of the aliphatic polyurethane layer could be made so small with respect to the thickness of the aromatic polyurethane layer that the composite skin has an average flexural modulus smaller than 30 MPa. Notwithstanding the lower reactivity of the aliphatic polyurethane reaction mixture, especially when using a higher NCO-index to reduce the “rubbery feel” and the emission of VOCs and/or a flexibiliser to achieve a higher flexibility, sufficiently short cycle times can be achieved due to the accelerated curing observed when spraying the aromatic polyurethane sufficiently early against the aliphatic polyurethane layer. | 12-31-2009 |

| 20120068821 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING LED INDICATORS AND AN ENERGY SAVING METHOD - The present invention concerns an electronic device comprising more than one electronic indicator, an electronic indicator being adapted to indicate a state of a feature of the device, the state being among others set to enabled, disabled or enabling, the electronic indicator consuming energy, and ECO indicator configuring means for setting for each electronic indicator the normal mode of operation, the normal mode corresponding to a state of the feature, and activating a second indicator and deactivating the more than one electronic indicator when the more than one indicator are all in a normal mode of operation. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120093053 | POWER SAVING METHOD AT AN ACCESS POINT - The present invention concerns a method at a wireless access point comprising a wireless interface, the method comprising the steps of enabling the wireless interface during a first period of time, checking if a wireless station associates during that first period of time, if a wireless station has been associated, keeping the wireless interface enabled, while a wireless station is attempting to associate, enabling the wireless interface during an extending period of time and if no wireless station is associated or is trying to associate, disabling the wireless interface for a second period of time. | 04-19-2012 |

| 20110114231 | STEEL FILAMENT PATENTED IN BISMUTH - A cold drawn carbon steel filament has a surface with traces of bismuth. The steel filament can be used as a sawing wire or as part of a steel cord. During its manufacturing the steel filament has been subjected to a controlled cooling by bringing the steel filament in contact with bismuth. Bismuth may replace lead without harming the environment. | 05-19-2011 |

| 20120121036 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CLOCK SPUR SUPPRESSION IN DIRECT-RF MODULATORS - Methods and systems to reduce clock spurs produced by a direct-RF modular to acceptable levels using a digital predistortion compensation signal. The digital compensation signal may be used to generate a sine wave in the digital domain with adjustable phase and amplitude. The digital compensation signal may be added to a digital signal processor (DSP) section of an upconvertor, and may be combined with the undesired clock spur signal to reduce it or even cancel it out completely. In some implementations, the digital predistortion compensation signal may have a similar level of the clock spur such that when added to the clock spur, results in a clock spur having a reduced amplitude. | 05-17-2012 |
