An optical unit for inspecting the soldered surface of a printed circuit board incorporates a thick-walled translucent concave diffuser dome with a hollow central cavity facing the surface under inspection, lamps directing illumination on the exterior of the dome, inspection portals spaced around the diffuser dome for video camera inspection of the board surface, and X-Y maneuvering control means ...

The Removable Bottom Founded Structure (RBFS) is an offshore platform for petroleum drilling and producing operations intended for deployment in waters with severe weather and iceberg conditions. The structure is normally held down by gravity, but during the deballasting procedure a hold-down system is employed to keep the platform on the subbase until site evacuation. The system that is used to h...

Fiber-reinforced thermoset polyurethane composites display enhanced impact strength when sufficient amounts of a high tenacity aliphatic polyamide fiber characterized by a drawn denier of 4 to 8 denier per filament; a thermal shrinkage of up to about 14 percent; an elongation of from less than 28 percent; and a tenacity of at least 5.5, preferably at least 7 grams per denier, are incorporated into...

A stable, low viscosity polymer/polyisocyanate dispersion wherein the polymer is produced by polymerizing an ethylenically unsaturated macromolecular monomer with another ethylenically unsaturated monomer, together with a polyurethane foam, elastomer, adhesive, sealant, or coating produced therefrom and a method for fabricating the foam.

A control system for an optical fiber laser power delivery system wherein the system employs a tip assembly for the optical fibers which provide focusing and beam divergence, mechanical protection for the optical fibers, and in addition functions as the source of a condition responsive signal useful in monitoring and controlling the system operation. The tip assembly utilizes a synthetic sapphire ...

PCT No. PCT/DE85/00089 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 3, 1985 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 3, 1985 PCT Filed Mar. 20, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO86/00155 PCT Pub.
