An inlet flow channel (105) extending from the bottom (125) of the sensor (100) to the sensing surface (120). The inlet channel (105) guides the sample to a cavity 115 formed at a housing surface (120) where it interacts with the film deposit (117). An outlet channel (110) extends from the cavity (115) to the bottom surface (125) and directs the sample outside the device. The light source (58), detector array (68) and interface (54) can be added to the structure providing a fully integrated miniaturized sensor. Various well known methods of manufacturing may be used including mill casting, split molding and double mold processes.
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates in general to the field of optic based sensors and more specifically to a miniaturized sensor platform with integrated flow channels for directing the sample analyte of interest uniformly over the sensor/sample interface.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Without limiting the scope of the invention, its background is described in connection with the Surface Plasmon Resonance (�SPR�) phenomenon in connection with miniaturized optical sensors. It should be understood that the principles disclosed may be applied to various sensor configurations including light transmissive, fluorescence-based and critical angle among others.
Optical sensor systems have been developed and used in the fields of chemical, biochemical, biological or biomedical analysis, process control, pollution detection and control and other areas. With SPR-based optical sensors, a resonance is observed when a polarized beam of monochromatic light is totally internally reflected from a dielectric surface having a thin metal film formed thereon. The light internally reflected at the surface has a minimum intensity at a particular angle referred to as the resonant angle. This angle is determined by the dielectric conditions adjacent the metal film and the properties of the film itself. The interface between the sensor surface and the sample of interest shall be referred to as the �sensor/sample interface.�
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention discloses a miniaturized sensor platform with integrated channels for controlling the flow of sample over the sensor/sample interface.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT In FIG. 1 an integrally formed optically based Surface Plasmon Resonance (�SPR�) sensor 50 is shown in close proximity to a sample 25 analyte of interest which can be a liquid or gas. The sample may be any (bio)chemical substance for which an indicator interaction is known and which can be formed into a thin biosensing layer 61. The film is deposited on a surface 63 of the sensor and exposed to the sample 25 during analysis. Various ways of bringing the sample 25 in contact with the surface 63 may be employed such as by dipping, dropping or by using a flow cell.

Dani Kouyaté - Wikipedia
Kouyaté at the Cinémathèque Française for the premiere of his film Ouaga-Saga in 2004.
Film director and griot
Best First Film Prize (FESPACO)
1995 Keïta! l'Héritage du griot
Junior Prize (Cannes)
Dani Kouyaté (born June 4, 1961)[1] is a film director and griot from Burkina Faso, which the BBC describes as "Africa's most important film-making country".[2]
Kouyaté was born in 1961 in Bobo-Dioulasso.[3][4] He is the son of one of the first Burkinabé actors, Sotigui Kouyaté,[2] and is a member of the Mandeng ethnic group.[5] Kouyatés have served as griots for the Keita clan since the 13th century.[5] The Kouyatés guard customs, and their knowledge is authoritative amongst Mandengs.[5] Keitas have to provide amenities to Kouyatés, who in turn should not hesitate to ask for Keita help.[5] The word Kouyaté translates as "there is a secret between you and me".[5]
The junior Kouyaté trained at the Institute Africain d'Education Cinématographique in Burkina Faso's capital of Ouagadougou before travelling to France for five years of study at the Sorbonne where he obtained a Master's degree in Cultural and Social Marketing.[1][5] He also received a degree from the International School of Anthropology in Paris, and an advanced degree in Cinema from the Université de Vincennes à Saint-Denis.[1] From 1990 to 1996 Kouyaté toured the United States and Europe as part of "La Voix du Griot" ("Voice of the Griot"), a storytelling theater show founded by his father.[1] He began his film career in 1989 with the short film Bilakoro, which was co-directed with Issa Traoré de Brahima.[1] In 1992 he was co-founder of the film production company Sahelis Productions with Sékou Traoré and Issa Traoré de Brahima.[6] He directed a number of other short films before the release of his first full-length feature, Keïta! l'Héritage du griot[5] in 1995.[7]
Sundjata Keita's 13th century epic, Sundjata, was Kouyaté's inspiration for the film,[7] which depicts a middle-class family in Ouagadougou.[5] He shot it in Ouagadougou, Sindou, and Ouahabou.[5] His father played the central role of Djeliba Kouyaté, who was imagined as an old dying man by Dani Kouyaté, though was portrayed as more forceful than that.[5] Keïta! received the Best First Film Prize from the Panafrican Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou (Fespaco) and was awarded the Junior Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.[5] In a 1995 interview, he reflected on the experience and commenting on traditional society, saying:
Sometimes when you don't know where you're heading, you have to return to where you came from in order to think things over before continuing your journey. Today, with all the things happening to her, Africa has trouble finding which direction to take—modernity, tradition, or some other road. We are not really capable of digesting all these things. We don't know who we are, and we don't know where we are going. We are between two things. Between our traditions and our modernity.[8]
In 1999 he created several episodes of the Burkinabé television series À nous la vie (roughly "Let's grab life").[1] The second feature film Kouyaté directed was Sia, le rêve du python, released in 2001.[1] It "operates simultaneously on three levels: as a visually compelling, exciting story set in a mythical past; as a political allegory, in which the events of the past are a continual commentary on Africa today; and as a rumination on the power and value of myth and legend."[1] His father played the complex General Watigué, and the junior Kouyaté performed as a musician, strumming his guitar and playing several percussion instruments.[1]
He also directed the award winning film Ouaga-Saga (2004), which premiered at Fespaco in 2005.[2] It tells the story of 11 Burkinabés struggling to overcome poverty to realise their dreams.[2] Kouyaté had five weeks to film this, though it took longer to complete.[2]

Sodium is an essential nutrient. Increasing sodium intake is associated with increasing blood pressure, whereas low sodium intake results in increased renin and aldosterone levels. Randomized controlled trials have reported reductions in blood pressure with reductions in sodium intake, to levels of sodium intake <1.5 g/d, and form the evidentiary basis for current population-wide guidelines recommending low sodium intake. Although low sodium intake (<2.0 g/d) has been achieved in short-term feeding clinical trials, sustained low sodium intake has not been achieved by any of the longer term clinical trials (>6-month duration). It is assumed that the blood pressure-lowering effects of reducing sodium intake to low levels will result in large reductions in cardiovascular disease globally. However, current evidence from prospective cohort studies suggests a J-shaped association between sodium intake and cardiovascular events, based on studies from >300 000 people, and suggests that the lowest risk of cardiovascular events and death occurs in populations consuming an average sodium intake range (3-5 g/d). The increased risk of cardiovascular events associated with higher sodium intake (>5 g/d) is most prominent in those with hypertension. A major deficit in the field is the absence of large randomized controlled trials to provide definitive evidence on optimal sodium intake for preventing cardiovascular events. Pending such trials, current evidence would suggest a recommendation for moderate sodium intake in the general population (3-5 g/d), with targeting the lower end of the moderate range among those with hypertension.

US 6563616 B1Abstract
A compact wavelength division demultiplexer device comprises two cascaded interferometers the wedge angle of whose mirrors are orthogonal to each other, i.e., the two interferometers are oriented such that the dispersion of light with wavelength from the second interferometer is orthogonal to the dispersion of light with wavelength from the first interferometer. The incoming beam of laser light carrying n sub-bands of m information channels is collimated and applied to the first interferometer whose free spectral range is determined by the total bandwidth required by the n�m channels and whose finesse is determined by the resolution needed to spatially separate each of the n sub-bands from one another. The light leaving the first interferometer enters the second interferometer whose wedge angle is at 90 degrees to the plane of the wedge angle of the first interferometer. The free spectral range of the second interferometer is determined by the number (m) of channels within a sub-band and its finesse is determined by the need to resolve the m channels from one another. The beams emerging from the second interferometer, in which the location of each fringe depends on its wavelength, are imaged upon a detector array whose elements are associated with a specific wavelength of the free spectral range of the second interferometer.
What is claimed is: 1. A method of optically demultiplexing a light beam carrying multiple sub-bands of discrete wavelengths, each wavelength corresponding to a channel for conveying communications information, comprising the steps of:
a. collimating the light beam; b. applying the collimated light beam to a first interferometer having a free spectral range adequate to accommodate a plurality of said multiple sub-bands; c. applying the light beam emerging from said first interferometer to a second interferometer, said second interferometer having a free spectral range adequate to accommodate one of the wavelengths of one of said sub-bands, the plane of the wedge angle of said second interferometer being orthogonally oriented with respect to the plane of the wedge angle said first interferometer. 2. The method of claim one wherein said second interferometer is coaxially aligned with said first interferometer.
3. The method of claim 1, further comprising the step of imaging the light emerging from said second interferometer on to an array, each element of said array being aligned to intercept a corresponding one of said discrete wavelengths in the light emerging from said second interferometer.
4. The method of claim 3 wherein said elements of said array comprises photodetector elements.
5. The method of claim 4 wherein said array comprises a bundle of individual fibers.
6. Apparatus for optically demultiplexing a light beam carrying multiple sub-bands of discrete wavelengths, each wavelength corresponding to a channel for conveying communications intelligence, comprising:
a. a light beam collimator; b. a first interferometer adapted to receive the light from said collimator, said first interferometer having a free spectral range adequate to accommodate a plurality of said multiple sub-bands; c. a second interferometer having the plane of the wedge angle of its mirrors oriented orthogonally to the plane of the wedge angle of the mirrors of said first interferometer, said second interferometer being adapted to receive the light emerging from said first interferometer and having a free spectral range adequate to accommodate one of the wavelengths of one of said sub-bands. 7. Apparatus according to claim 6 wherein said first and second interferometers are coaxially aligned.
8. A compact wavelength division demultiplexer device comprising
a. two cascaded coaxially aligned interferometers, the planes of the wedge angle of whose mirrors are orthogonal to each other and the free spectral range of the second interferometer being a fraction of the free spectral range of the first interferometer; and b. a photo-detector aligned to receive the light pattern emerging from the second interferometer.
This invention relates generally to demultiplexing signals encoded in a light beam and, more particularly, to optical devices for demultiplexing different wavelengths of laser radiation.
Lightwave communication over fiber optics is attractive because it offers tremendous bandwidth, low noise and low attenuation in transmission over considerable distances. Conventional fibers offer three low attenuation and high capacity transmission bands passbands in the near infra-red at approximately 0.85, 1.3 and 1.5 microns. Each such passband in a typical fiber is about 200 nm wide between half-power points and therefore provides 26,000 gigahertz transmission capacity, enough to accommodate hundreds if not thousands of discrete wavelengths or transmission channels. While the transmission capabilities of fiber networks are impressive, communication of information ultimately demands that a particular channel be established between a given transmitter and a given receiver, if not permanently then at appropriate times.
Heretofore the problem of associating one receiver with one transmitter has been approached mainly by using tunable transmitters, tunable receivers, or both. An alternative approach is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,040,169 to Guerin et al in which an illustrative four modulated wavelengths W1, . . . , W4 are demultiplexed in a “switching fabric” at a point 30 into two wavetrains W1, W2 and W3, W4 and then, at subsequent points 36, 38 further demultiplexed into four distinct output positions 41-44 in a horizontal plane, at each of which only one modulated wavelength appears. The same output position also appears in one of four vertical planes. While the duplication of output positions may serve a useful purpose, this redundancy incurs extra cost.
It is known that a multiple wavelength light beam may be split into physically distinct positions with a Fizeau interferometer which maps optical frequencies into a spatial distribution of fringe intensities. The fringes may be detected with photodiodes and then subjected to signal processing for estimation of the position of the Fizeau fringe as a function of signal level and fringe width. While a tunable Fabry-Perot interferometer in which mirror spacing can be varied can be used to scan a light beam in order to obtain one wavelength at a time, this may involve an intolerable delay in obtaining the desired wavelength or group of wavelengths one channel at a time.
A compact wavelength division demultiplexer device according to an illustrative embodiment of the invention comprises two orthogonally cascaded interferometers which are interposed at a point in a wideband light path at which it is desired to individually resolve (demultiplex) the multiple information signals carried by the light beam into spatially separated discrete wavelengths or channels. Thus, for a given transmission band, say one in the 1300 nm region, where there may be n sub-bands each carrying m information channels, the cascaded arrangement would resolve any of the n�m channels. The incoming beam of laser light is collimated and applied to the first interferometer. The free spectral range of the first interferometer is determined by the total bandwidth required by the n�m channels and its finesse (a measure of the interferometer's channel selectivity) is determined by the resolution needed to spatially separate each of the n sub-bands from one another. The separation is determined by the amount of crosstalk which can be tolerated between adjacent sub-bands. The light leaving the first interferometer remains collimated and enters the second interferometer which is in line with the first interferometer and whose wedge angle is at 90 degrees to the plane of the wedge angle of the first interferometer. The two interferometers are oriented such that the dispersion of light with wavelength from the second interferometer is orthogonal to the dispersion of light with wavelength from the first interferometer. The free spectral range of the second interferometer is determined by the number (m) of channels within a sub-band and its finesse is determined by the need to resolve the m channels from one another. The separation here is determined by the amount of crosstalk which can be tolerated between adjacent channels. The collimated beams emerging from the second interferometer in which the location of each fringe depends on its wavelength are imaged upon a detector array or a bundled array of individual fibers, each of which ultimately terminates in an individual detector (not shown). In either event, each detector is uniquely associated with a specific wavelength of the free spectral range of the second interferometer.
The foregoing and other features of the invention may be better understood from a reading of the ensuing description together with the drawing, in which:
FIG. 1A is a wavelength space illustration of a broad band light beam having n sub-bands, each supporting m narrow band channels;
FIG. 1B (not drawn to the same scale as FIG. 1A) is a wavelength space illustration of the m narrow band channels of one of the sub-bands;
FIG. 2A is a simplified, two-dimensional side elevation view of the orthogonally cascaded interferometers of my invention;
FIG. 2B is a simplified, two-dimensional top (plan) view of the orthogonally cascaded interferometers of FIG. 2A;
FIG. 3A is an illustration of the light pattern emerging from the first interferometer;
FIG. 3B is an illustration of the light pattern emerging from the second interferometer; and
FIG. 3C is an illustration of the focal plane array of a receiver upon which the light pattern of FIG. 3B is imaged.
Referring now to FIG. 1A there is shown a plot of intensity versus frequency for a wideband light beam. Such a light beam, illustratively, may cover one of the above-mentioned bands such as that in the vicinity of 1.3 microns (1300 nm) and may comprise n sub-bands within that range. For example the sub-band shown at λ1 may illustratively be centered at 1290 nm, the sub-band show at λ2 may illustratively be centered at 1292 nm, while the sub-band λn may illustratively be centered at 1320 nm. Each of these sub-bands has sufficient bandwidth (and low enough noise) to support many channels for the transmission of information from a modulating transmitter (not shown). Thus, the sub-band λ1,1 more clearly shown in FIG. 1B, includes a plurality of discrete wavelengths or channels, λ1,1 through λ1,m. In FIG. 1A, the amplitudes of the individual channels are shown as being uniform; however, this is merely a matter of simplifying the drawing since individual channels may be amplitude modulated or phase-modulated or some combination of both, without loss of generality.
The light beam of FIG. 1A is portrayed in FIGS. 2A and 2B as exiting a fiber at point 21 and as being applied to collimating optics 22 to produce a parallel beam along the optic axis OA. Collimating optics 22 may include a focusing mirror, if desired. The parallel beam is applied to a first interferometer 23, such as a Fizeau interferometer, whose mirror surfaces 23 a, 23 b, as shown in the side elevation view, FIG. 2A, are vertically inclined toward one another at a wedge angle a23. The output of interferometer 23 produces the “bar” light pattern shown in FIG. 3A. In actual fact, though not possible to be illustrated to scale in FIG. 3A, each such bar would convey the same information as a corresponding one of the waveforms of FIG. 1A. Thus, for example, the left-most bar λ1 in FIG. 3A corresponds to the identically labeled waveform in FIG. 1A and the right-most bar λn in FIG. 3A corresponds to waveform λn of FIG. 1A. Accordingly, the free spectral range of the first interferometer 23 should be equal to or slightly greater than the composite bandwidth of the n sub-bands of FIG. 1A to avoid overlap of the fringes.
The bar light pattern at the output of interferometer 23, shown in FIG. 3A, is applied to the second interferometer 24, which is in line with the first interferometer and whose mirror surfaces 24 a, 24 b, as shown in the top (plan) view, FIG. 2B, are horizontally inclined toward one another at a wedge angle a24. In other words, the plane of the wedge angle a24 is orthogonal to the plane of the wedge angle a23. The output of interferometer 24 produces the “dot” light pattern shown in FIG. 3B wherein each “dot” corresponds to one of the channels of FIG. 1B. The free spectral range of the second interferometer 24 should be equal to or slightly greater than the bandwidth of one of the sub-bands of FIG. 1A. The dot light pattern of FIG. 3B is imaged upon the array 26 as shown in FIG. 3C. which may include either an array of photo-detector elements d1,1 through dn, m or a bundle of individual fibers. Where a detector array is used each element is preferably aligned to register with one of the “dots” of pattern λ1,1 through λn, m while where a bundle of individual fibers is used each individual fiber would correspondingly be positioned to receive one of the “dots”. Where a fiber bundle is used, the remote end of each (not shown) would be associated with a respective detector for an individual wavelength. Advantageously, to assist in the registration of the dot pattern on the array 26, an array of lenslets 25, schematically illustrated in FIGS. 2A and 2B, may be used to image the light pattern emerging from interferometer 24 onto the array 26. Thus, each of the transmitters (not shown) assumed to have effected the modulation of the n�m channels has been individually associated with a corresponding one of the receiving detectors d1,1 through dn, m.
It should be apparent that numerous modifications may be made to the illustrative embodiment. Thus, while fibers have been referred to having three low-attenuation bands available for the transmission of information of which only one band has been described in detail, the principles described herein are applicable to the use of less than an entire band as well as of more than one of the bands. In addition, although in line cascaded interferometers have been shown, it should be apparent that a roof prism or other optics may be interposed between the interferometers as desired. Further and other modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without however departing from the spirit and scope of my invention.

Less Familiar, but Still a SoHo Presence
By CONSTANCE ROSENBLUM DEC. 28, 2012
PERFECTLY LEGAL Shael Shapiro on the roof of his building, at 85 Wooster Street. Mr. Shapiro was an original occupant of 80 Wooster, where the movement to allow artists to own their own spaces was born. Credit Yana Paskova for The New York Times
BACK in the late 1960s and the 1970s, when SoHo had the intimacy and cohesion of a small village, nearly everyone knew Shael Shapiro. The slight, gentle architect with a flair for rescuing decaying buildings was a fixture in this onetime center of the city’s art world. Even well into the 1980s, as SoHo began morphing into an outdoor shopping mall, his was a familiar face.
“When he walked down the street, dozens of people would stop to say hello or ask him some question,” said his wife, Roslyn Bernstein, who arrived on the scene only when the two married in 1984 but was immediately struck by her husband’s local celebrity. “Everyone knew his name.”
Mr. Shapiro’s renown along these cobblestone blocks, whose emptying industrial structures were fast being converted to live-work spaces for the young and creative, was no accident. Notably, he helped shape the legislation that in 1971 allowed artists to legally occupy the newly available lofts. He wrote the first version of the relevant section of the state’s Multiple Dwelling Law, and his suggestions were incorporated into the zoning regulations drafted by the City Planning Commission. Wearing his architect’s hat, Mr. Shapiro guided the transformation of hundreds of dilapidated loft buildings in Lower Manhattan. And as an original occupant of 80 Wooster Street, where the movement to allow artists to own their own spaces was born in 1967, he helped mastermind the first conversion of an industrial loft building to residential use in the city.
In 1973 Mr. Shapiro moved across the street, to a building that he and four other families bought for $150,000, and he has been there ever since.
According to Roberta Brandes Gratz, a former member of the city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission and the author, most recently, of “The Battle for Gotham: New York in the Shadow of Robert Moses and Jane Jacobs,” Mr. Shapiro deserves significant credit for the survival of SoHo’s cast-iron trove.
“He had extraordinary vision and foresight to be interested in these buildings and realize that they could be converted in a way that would save them,” Ms. Gratz said. “He understood their value and understood that creative people might want to live in them. That he accomplished this when the specter of the Lower Manhattan Expressway was hanging over the neighborhood makes his achievement even more remarkable.”
SoHo today is, of course, a transformed place. The city’s cutting-edge art scene has long since migrated to West Chelsea, replaced by tidal waves of shoppers and gawking out-of-towners. While the stately 19th-century cast-iron buildings have survived, thanks to the Landmarks Preservation Commission, struggling young artists have long since been shoved aside to make way for millionaire bankers. Sitting beneath the double-height ceiling in his living area, Mr. Shapiro pondered the economic shifts that accompanied and fueled these changes. “People are surprised at how cheap things used to be,” he said. “At 80 Wooster, the price was $105,000 for the whole building. Today, you can’t get a closet for that.” A top-floor loft, he said, just sold for $6 million.
Part of him misses the yeasty energy of the ’70s, when galleries were sprouting everywhere and luminaries like Allen Ginsberg and Andy Warhol roamed the bumpy streets. “Today, there are different people behind the walls,” Mr. Shapiro said. “There’s more money, more elegant spaces. You know your neighbors less.”
Still, he’s not complaining. Longtimers like him have benefited financially from the changes. And some blocks of SoHo look as if they’d been preserved in a time capsule. “When you walk the streets,” Mr. Shapiro said, “they’re physically much the same, so it feels like less of a change. It would be nice if the clock had stopped 30 years ago. But I’m still happy to be here.”
He is also gratified that the area has provided a template for reuse of buildings emulated the world over. Just the other day, he offered a tour of local streets to a group of developers who hope to repurpose buildings in their native China.
Mr. Shapiro, who was born in East New York, Brooklyn, and studied architecture at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in Troy, N.Y., arrived in SoHo in 1967; a $5,000 gift from an aunt allowed him to buy the 2,500-square-foot space on 80 Wooster Street where he would help make local history. And if ever a building ignited the transformation of a neighborhood, this tan brick structure with soaring arched windows was that building. A onetime cardboard factory, it was bought in 1967 by the Lithuanian-born George Maciunas, celebrated as the creator of the area’s first successful artists’ co-op. Mr. Shapiro and Ms. Bernstein, a professor of journalism and creative writing at Baruch College, brings this era alive in their book “Illegal Living: 80 Wooster Street and the Evolution of SoHo,” published in 2010.
“The place was a mess,” Mr. Shapiro recalled of his quarters, so much so that he built himself a little room and covered it with sheets of polyethylene so he could live there while tackling the ruins around him. The building where Mr. Shapiro lived next was no prize, either. “That was a mess, too,” he said. “The floors were rotten. There were no toilets and hardly any electricity.” Today, one of the few reminders of those days is the creaky, hand-operated “ring and bring” elevator that Mr. Shapiro dutifully escorts to the ground floor when visitors arrive.
Even though SoHo’s makeup has changed over the decades, Mr. Shapiro still sees familiar faces on its streets, although fewer than in earlier years. And as he talks about SoHo past, present and future, he takes pains to point out that there was nothing inevitable about the emergence as a creative enclave of the gritty district once known as Hell’s Hundred Acres. “In the early ’60s,” he said, “the City Club issued a report titled ‘The Wasteland of New York,’ identifying this area as ripe for urban renewal. If the artists hadn’t moved in and made this such a vibrant community, and if the political climate hadn’t been ripe, the buildings would definitely have been torn down.”

The flange forms an angle (A) within the wall (1) which is less than 90�, preferably 30�. Having an angled flange facilitates manufacture of the container by injection molding techniques.
I claim: 1. An injection molded container having a base, a side wall, an annular skirt within the side wall and defining the container mouth, the skirt being adapted to receive as a plug-fit a lid for the container, a lid received by the skirt in a plug-fit manner, a peripheral flange extending inwardly from the side wall and joined at one end to said side wall and its approximate end to said skirt, with the skirt being a continuation of the flange towards the mouth of the container, the flange extending from the side wall to the skirt in a direction towards the mouth at an oblique angle to the side wall as viewed in cross-section, said skirt having a radially extending convex, annular portion adapted to engage a complementary curved portion of the container lid.
2. A container according to claim 1 wherein the oblique angle is between 10� and 50�.
3. A container according to claim 1 wherein the oblique angle is between 20� and 40�.
4. A container according to claim 1 wherein the oblique angle is between 25� and 35�.
5. A container according to claim 1 wherein the oblique angle is substantially 30�.
6. A container according to claim 1 wherein the skirt extends axially from the flange towards the mouth of the container.
7. An injectin molded container having a base, a cylindrical side wall, an annular skirt within the side wall and defining the container mouth, the skirt being adapted for receiving as a plug-fit a lid for the container, a lid received by the skirt in a plug-fit manner, a peripheral flange of frusto-conical form extending inwardly from the side wall and joined at its larger diameter end to said side wall, the flange being joined at its smaller diameter end to said skirt with the skirt being a continuation of the flange towards the mouth of the container from said skirt to said side wall, said skirt having a radially inwardly extending convex annular portion adapted to engage a complementary portion of the container lid.
8. A container according to claim 1 wherein said flange forms a channel between the flange and skirt on the one hand and the side wall on the other providing a site for levering the lid away from the container.
9. A container according to claim 1 wherein the skirt has a radially inwardly extending convex annular portion.
10. A container according to claim 1 wherein the side wall is of generally constant cross section throughout its length.
11. A container according to claim 1 wherein the flange is operative to transmit forces exerted on the lid to the side wall without the flange being in shear.
The present invention relates to a container, for example a container which is suitable for containing paint.
Until fairly recently, containers for paint have been made of sheet metal, formed into a generally cylindrical container. A lid having a peripheral axially-extending skirt plug-fits into the mouth of the container, the mouth being defined by a complimentary axially extending skirt which is located radially inwardly of the cylindrical wall of the container and joined thereto by an annular radial flange. An outwardly radially extending portion of the lid covers the skirt of the container and extends slightly beyond the skirt so that a tool can be inserted adjacent the flange of the container and used to lever off the lid.
Recently, such containers have been made increasingly of injection molded plastics material. One such container is described in GB-A No. 2 168 960.
It has been found, however, that the traditional form of metal paint container has not always lent itself to injection molding techniques. The present invention is intended to provide a modified form of container, having advantages associated with the traditional form, but being more readily produced by injection molding manufacturing processes.
Accordingly, one aspect of the present invention provides an injection-molded container having a base and side wall and an annular skirt within the side wall and defining the container mouth, the skirt being adapted to receive as a plug-fit a lid for the container, the skirt being connected to the side wall by a peripheral flange, the flange extending from the side wall to the skirt in a side wall as viewed in cross-section.
Preferably, the oblique angle is between 10� and 50�, more preferably between 20� and 40� and most preferably between 25� and 35�. In a particularly preferred embodiment the said angle is substantially 30�.
This construction leads to substantial advantages in terms of the ease of manufacturing the container, since it is possible to injection mold the container in one piece without use of collapsible molds and the complex control mechanisms required for such moulds.
Moulding in one piece avoids the necessity for additional welding steps to manufacture the container and also avoids the risks of failure inherent in welding techniques.
The axial extent of the flange is preferably between one and a half and three times the axial extent of the skirt.
FIG. 1 is a side elevation of a container according to the invention; and
FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view of a portion of the container.
The side wall 1 of the container is generally cylindrical and is closed at one end by a base 15. Axially spaced from the opposite open end 2 of the container, a flange 3 extends from the wall 1 inwardly and towards the open end of the container, thus defining a truncated cone, and forming an oblique angle A with the wall 1 of the container as viewed in cross-section. In this embodiment, angle A is substantially 30�. The flange 3 extends to a position located axially inwardly of the open end 2 where the flange is integral with an axially-extending annular skirt 4 which extends from the flange 3 towards the diametral plane of the open end 2 of the container. Adjacent the position at which the flange 3 merges into the skirt 4, the skirt has a radially inwardly extending convex annular portion 5 which is adapted to engage a complementarily curved portion of the lid 6 for the container. The complementary curved portions of the skirt 4 and the lid 6 allow the lid to have a plug-fit engagement with the container in an advantageous manner, which is the subject of GB-A No. 2168960.
It will be seen, as is conventional in such containers, that a tool (not shown) may be inserted into the channel 14 formed between the flange 3 and the skirt 4, on the one hand, and the cylindrical wall 1 of the container, on the other hand, in order to lever the lid 6 away from the container.
The angle A is chosen as to optimize the ease of manufacture by injection molding of the container in one piece and the properties of the container when in use. Thus the container can be "bumped-off" the mold core, so that repeat molding can be at high speed. To facilitate such bumping-off, angle A should be as small as possible. However, too small an angle will mean that the flange 3 and associated skirt 4 are too resilient and may not form a satisfactory engagement with the lid 6. Conversely, greater rigidity of the flange 3 and the skirt 4 will be provided by having a large angle A, but this may not be compatible with the desired speed of manufacture. It has been found by the applicants that an angle A of about 30� represents the optimum.
It is to be noted that, although too much resilience associated with the flange 3 and the skirt 4 is undesirable, a degree of resilience provides for a better seal than if the flange 3 is at 90� to the wall 1, and hence this is a further advantage of containers in accordance with the invention. A third advantage which has been found is that it may be possible to dispense with the plurality of axial strengthening ribs which are commonly, in prior molded containers, located in the channel 14 between the wall 1 and the flange 3. This is because the flange 3 transmits forces exerted on the lids, e.g. when stacked, to the side wall without the flange being in shear and liable to deform as in conventional containers.
The container may be formed from any suitable plastics material, as is known in the art.
The container described is generally cylindrical. Although, in practice, it will usually be advantageous for the cylinder to have a circular axial cross-section, other cross-sections may be employed, for example a square cross-section to facilitate side-by-side storage of the containers.

The metal wire layers are connected with each other by vias, so that a metal fence having a laminated structure is formed. The metal fence is provided so as to surround an element (e.g. a spiral inductor) that generates an electromagnetic field in an integrated circuit. The metal wire satisfies d≦λ/8, WF≧5δ, and L≦λ/20, where δ is a skin depth of an electromagnetic wave, c is a velocity of light, f is an operating frequency of the integrated circuit, d is a lateral-direction size of a metal-fence region, WF is a surrounding-line width of the metal fence, L is an interval between the vias, and λ=c/f is a wavelength of a signal. With this arrangement, it is possible to decrease electromagnetic coupling noises and coupling noises caused via the substrate.

Gr 6 Up-Good resources for serious inquiries into human physiology, medicine, and even the history of science. These independent but uniformly designed volumes examine the functions and structures of a particular system, from the skeletal to the lymphatic, then go on to describe relevant medical research past and present and, finally, associated diseases and treatments. The scanty illustrations are, mostly, simple labeled drawings, with an admixture of small, drab black-and-white photos and, in each volume, a modest color section-but the meaty texts compensate for the unappealing design. In Circulatory, for instance, readers will find (among much else) a detailed description of the arterial wall's complex structure, an account of the invention of the stethoscope by Rene-Theophile-Hyacinthe La'nnec, and a reference to recent study that uncovered a beneficial effect of nicotine. This set merits consideration as an updated companion for Renato Dulbecco's multivolume Encyclopedia of Human Biology (Elsevier, 1997); the individual volumes are also solid candidates for circulating collections.-John Peters, New York Public Library Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
