Title: Control system for an electrically operated valve
Inventor: SWANSON WESLEY S
IPC: F25C1/04
Filed: 1994-12-06
Abstract: An icemaker for a refrigerator has a timer controlled solenoid operated water fill valve for water fill of the receptacle in which ice is to be formed. In the event of malfunction of the solenoid timer control during water fill, overheat of the solenoid and flooding are prevented by a PTC resistor in series with the solenoid to limit the current to cause solenoid de-actuation before the coil overheats and before receptacle overflow. The PTC resistance may also be electrically in series with a heater employed for facilitating ice extraction.

Inventor: ANSLEY DAVID A
IPC: G02B26/10
Filed: 1995-01-13
Abstract: A  lightweight  fiber  optic  television  subminiature display for helmet mounted display systems. A one dimensional sional array of pixels such as a fiber optic (FO) ribbon (64)  has an input end  (62)  which receives input light illuminating the pixels so as to create a first dimension of the display. The output end (64B) of the FO ribbon is moved relative to the observer to create a second dimension. At the helmet (66), the Fo ribbon is clamped by a clamp (68) and vibrated by a driver (70) so that the output end of the ribbon is moved to obtain the second dimension. The dimensions of the FO ribbon are selected to provide a natural resonant frequency equal to the television field rate,  and the driver vibrates the section  (64A)  of the ribbon between the clamp and the ribbon output end at the ribbon resonant frequency.   The clamp and driver can be very  lightweight,  thereby  reducing  the  weight  of  the display elements mounted on the helmet.

Title: Digital video editing system and method
Inventor: SOOHOO KENNETH
IPC: G06T1/00
Filed: 1993-09-07
Abstract: A system and method of digital video editing simultaneously displays a plurality of source video windows on a screen, each window showing a digital source video stream. The user may select among the source video windows at any time while they are being shown. The selected digital source video stream appears in a record video window, and continues to run in real-time in both the selected source video window and the record video window. All windows continuously display real-time video streams. The user may continue to make selections among the source video windows as often as desired, and may also select transforma-tions, or special effects, from an on-screen list. The video stream playing in the record window thus forms a digital user-arranged version of selected portions of the source video streams, plus transformations, as selected by the user. The user's selections are stored to permit subsequent playback of the digital user-arranged video stream in a playback window. A single digital audio stream, or selectable multiple digital audio streams, may accompany the source and user-arranged video streams.

Patent CA-2145705-A1 (CA)
Inventor: I CHIH-LIN
IPC: H04J99/00
Filed: 1995-03-28
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of CDMA techniques. Data signals to be transmitted from a plurality of wireless devices are spread across a common bandwidth. The data signals are received by a base station as a composite spread signal.  The base station partially despreads the composite spread signal with unique codes to extract data signals from individual wireless devices. The data rate and quality of service requirements for each wireless device are used to calculate a power factor and a control signal is sent to control the power from a particular wireless device.  In addition, a probability of transmission value is calculated based on an equivalent current load value and an equivalent population value. The probability of transmission value determines whether a particular wireless device is allowed access to an uplink frequency channel.

Title: Authentication label and authenticating pattern incorporating diffracting structure and method of fabricating them
Inventor: KORTH HANS-E
IPC: G06K19/16
Filed: 1995-08-03
Abstract: A light diffracting structure in an authenticating pattern especially for an authentication label is used for authenticating and protecting against forgery various valuable objects. The light diffracting structure has unique parameters generating a uniquely coloured pattern. The unique parameters are randomly defined by anisotropic process steps during the manufacturing of the diffractingstructure and are not under full control of the producer. This prevents copying or creating an exact replica thereof. The authenticating pattern comprises an integrated structure of a substrate layer and a transparent overcoat layer and the viewable interface therebetween includes the light diffracting structure. The uniquely coloured authenticating pattern can be verified by simple observation with the naked eye which is a prerequisite for ubiquitous verification.

Title: Glycosylation of lipids and lipid-containing particles, and diagnostic and therapeutic methods and materials derived therefrom
Inventor: BUCALA RICHARD J
IPC: G01N33/533
Filed: 1993-11-12
Abstract: The in vivo oxidation of lipids and lipid-containing molecules has been discovered to be initiated by the reaction of such lipid materials with reducing sugars such as glucose, advanced glycosylation endproducts such as AGE-peptides, or a compound which forms advanced glycosylation endproducts, to form materials or particles known as AGE-lipids. AGE-lipids have been implicated in the aging process, the abnormal formation of lipofuscin and invarious disease states such as diabetes and atherosclerosis.  Diagnostic methods are contemplated, extending in utility from the detection of the onset and course of conditions in which variations in lipid oxidation, AGE-lipid levels, LDL levels, apolipoprotein levels, apolipoprotein receptor binding the like, may be measured, to drug discovery assays. Corresponding methods of treatment and pharmaceutical compositions are disclosed that are based on an active ingredient or ingredients that demonstrate  the ability to modulate the levels of all the foregoing markers of lipid oxidation.
