Topic: Low Force


In the News (Sat 18 May 13)

  
  Low temperature force field producer - Patent 5107161
A method of establishing a force field as recited in claim 1 wherein said first end of said conductor is cooled to a temperature below about 110 K. and said second end of said conductor is maintained at approximately ambient temperature, where ambient temperature is defined as the temperature of said conductor prior to cooling.
It is speculated that the failure of the electric field to rapidly discharge at low temperatures results from a high electric insulator effect, of the cryogenic field material, which acts to prevent the neutralizing effect of ions and electrons moving between the charged poles.
The force field and the intensity of both the voltage changes and the mass attraction forces tends to be greatest at the ends of the crystals, i.e., the electrical poles.

 Rocking switch actuator for a low force membrane contact switch - Patent 4528431
The force produced on the key 10 during its depression is illustrated with respect to the displacement of the key 10 in FIG.
Thus, the closing force exerted by the actuator 19 is at least twice the force required to close the contact switch 20 of the membrane contact switch assembly 15.
Another advantage of this invention is that it efficiently transmits the force from depression of a key of a keyboard to a force to close a contact switch of a membrane contact switch assembly.

 Imada DPZ Force Gauge
Force control can automatically stop testing when the force value reaches the high setpoint programmed on the DPZ force gauge, or maintain the force between the DPZ High and Low setpoints.
Force control is ideal for fatigue or non-destructive testing.
All DPZ gauges are sold in kits which include the force gauge, hard plastic carrying case, AC adapter/charger, and attachments (flat head, conical, chisel, notched, small hook, large hook, Y-fork, and extension rod).

 Nuclear Waste Task Force - Low-Level Radioactive Waste - Sierra Club
The Sierra Club's National Nuclear Waste Task Force has received queries concerning the current situation of LLRW management, storage, and "disposal," the status of the LLRW Compacts and siting in various states, expectations for future LLRW policies, and ways for Sierrans to address these issues.
Although "Class A" wastes are composed mainly of low activity trash, some components may be biologically dangerous in minute quantities and some remain hazardous for many thousands of years.
The wastes deemed "Classes B and C" are higher in radioactive concentrations and tend to contain isotopes that have very long hazardous lives.

Note that decline in force follows a fairly regular pattern, indicating that a consistent population of motor units was recruited throughout tests.
Data were normalized by dividing by prefatigue force ratio and show that all protocols attenuated low-frequency force responses more than high-frequency responses and that this attenuation was maintained during recovery.
Loss of force was greater in response to low-frequency testing trains immediately after lower and variable-frequency fatiguing protocols than after higher frequency fatiguing protocols.

 WeldHelp: Weld Force Low
Weld force brings the metal between the electrodes together and provides electrical continuity, the required welding pressure, and forging force, so that a weld may be generated.
The lower the force, the higher the interfacial resistances, resulting in higher heat generation at the tip to sheet and sheet to sheet interfaces.
When subjected to low force, the metal-to-metal contact will be only at the contacting peaks.
