Title: Dual-medium articles, including hinged articles
Inventor: HEXTER PETER K JR
IPC: G09F1/12
Filed: 1994-09-13
Granted: 1998-12-02
Abstract: Various dual-medium articles which advantageously combine two mediums, metal for appearance and durability, and cardboard which affords high quality printing. The articles include a generally rectangular metal substrate having front and rear sides, and a cardboard insert sheet adjacent the rear side. The metal substrate includes a central main portion, four edge marginal portions terminating in respective substrate edges, and four corner marginal portions. The marginal portions surround the central main portion, sharing respective boundaries therewith, and are rolled towards the substrate rear side and around such that the substrate edges contact the insert sheet so as to hold the insert sheet in position. The rolled marginal portions together define a continuous bead around the periphery of the card without any exposed sharp edges. In some embodiments the rolled edges are replaced by hinge sleeves. Thus, specific embodiments include a greeting card having two elements joined by a hinge, and a gift greeting box with an insert sheet in the cover, with a hinge joining the cover to a receptacle base. Another embodiment takes the form of a stand-up indicia-bearing article such as a calendar, wherein the insert sheet is die cut to form a pop-out easel.

Abstract: The reinforcements (2) to be protected are assemblies of wires or rods in a duct, within the mass of concrete. To overcome imperfections from the concrete production, such as porosity or voids, a hole (4) is bored in the concrete up to the reinforcement. A corrosion inhibiting solution is then injected into the bore and a pulsating wave of high power applied. This ensures penetration of the solution. The reinforcement may be pre or post stressed and after injection of inhibiting solution, the voids may be filled by injection with cement. The solution may be introduced under pressure, using a pulsating pump (5). Alternatively, an ultrasonic high power emitter may be used, instead of a pulsating pump.

Abstract: A grooming device (18) includes an inbound crosspoint switch (30) that combines proprietary STS-1 signals from any of a plurality of optical terminators (16) into a grouped set of output signals for transmission to a broadband matrix subsystem through dedicated matrix interfaces (20). The inbound crosspoint switch (30) includes a crosspoint matrix (72) that receives each of the plurality of input signal lines at each output signal port and selects which input signal line is connected to which output signal port as determined by a microprocessor controller (78). Each output signal port has a register (90) for storing information as to which input signal line is to be connected to that port. A decoder (92) generates a control signal from the information stored in the register (90) to drive a multiplexer (94) for selection of the appropriate input signal line.

Granted: 2000-04-12
Abstract: The stator (1) forms a wheel comprising an outer rim and a hub with spokes or arms spaced regularly in between. The rotor (2, 3) is in the form of a disc held elastically in contact with the stator. An axial force exerted on the hub is transmitted to the rim and hence to the piezoelectric rods (5) by the spokes. The spokes allow the circulation of a progressive wave around the rim and the axial force applied to the hub by nuts (7) to compress the piezoelectric rods. This is independent of the nuts (9, 10) and washers (11, 12) holding the rotor to the stator. The arms may be formed by the bridges created when making circular holes spaced out around a stator disc.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for reducing the data transmitted over an external communication link from a first application resident in a first computer to a second application resident in a second computer. The method, apparatus and computer program product include storing a data stream from the first application to be provided to the second application in response to a request from the second application in a cache resident in the first computer to create a server base cache entry and in a cache resident in the second computer to create a client base cache entry. Requests from the second application are interrogated to determine if a client base cache entry corresponding to the interrogated request exists and to determine if a server base cache entry corresponding to the interrogated request exists. The response data stream is intercepted prior to transmission of the response on the external communication link and compared to the server base cache entry to provide difference data corresponding to the difference between the intercepted response and the server base cache entry. The difference data is sent over the external communication link and acquired by the second computer which reconstructs the response data stream by combining the client base cache entry with the difference data to create a response data stream which is provided to the second application.
