Title: Amusement apparatus
IPC: A63G31/16
Filed: 1986-11-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a device usable in an amusement park in association with a rotatable carousel having a support arm which supports a cylindrical bearing for a car which is used to accommodate one or more persons. The cylindrical bearing is held substantially vertically so that it defines a rotatable horizontal axis which rotatably supports the car. The car is suspended so that the center of gravity of the car holds in a position so that it accommodates the passengers in an upright position. Means are provided to bias the car into an upright position, but to permit it to rotate about its horizontal axis. A feature of the construction is that the car is provided with a control which may be manipulated by a passenger to orient wings of the device so that the device has a tendency to effect a roll about its horizontal axis. In addition it is provided with a similar control, or the same control which effects the driving rotation of the car about its central horizontal axis so that it begins a roll against the biasing action to which it is mounted. The ring mounting the car to the carousel support is constructed so that it may be centrally suspended from the support along with the front end thereof which permits the rotation about the horizontal axis.
Patent EP-0228634-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 1986-12-12
Abstract: An architecture is disclosed for the implementation of 
an information utility for accessing information and 
executing transactions on an interactive basis between 
Videotex databases and individual end user terminals, 
some or all of which may be remotely located with 
respect to each other. The utility may be associated 
with a Videotex Application Network (VAN) and includes 
a combination of distributed, semiautonomous 
Operations Nodes (ONs), each characterized by 1) one 
or more affiliated users, 2) the inclusion of some 
form of database, and 3) one or more customized 
application programs, and each is also capable of 
"standalone" operation. A typical ON with end-user 
terminals, which may be referred to as an Establishment 
Operations Node (EON), supports a unique user interface 
through which users get controlled and secure access 
to a wide variety of databases stored locally and/or 
remotely. Through this node, users may also interact 
with a large number of application programs distributed 
over the entire VAN which provide additional and 
specialized services. The user interface, the 
mechanisms for secure access to information, and the 
application environment supported by the ON are 
important features of the invention and ONs may be 
adapted to special functions within the network. For 
example, while a typical node may consist of a system 
with one or more databases and end user terminals 
(EON), another node may consist only of specialized 
databases (DON) maintained by information pro­
viders (IPs) without end users or application programs. 
Similarly, a third node may merely consist of a 
directory database with a number of unrelated end user 
 
 
terminals (TON). Another node may be configured with 
a directory database and just a set of application 
programs providing services to users on the network 
(PON). A number of small in-house users may cooperate 
to form a multiorganization node (MOON) and special 
nodes may be formed to handle access to other networks 
(NON) or to interface with third party databases 
(ION). Finally, a node may assume the role of a 
Systems Operations Node (SON) which maintains a global 
directory of databases and application programs 
available at various nodes and may act to supervise 
and coordinate the interactions and operations of all 
the nodes in the system. In all, the application 
architecture and specific implementation disclosed 
offer valuable capabilities and services to end users.

Abstract: In an arrangement for handling packets of data, data is 
serially applied to a data formatting device (2) and stored in a 
RAM (3) from where it is applied on 'A' and 'B' data lines (4, 
5) as simultaneous packets with an interval of a duration at 
least as long as a packet between adjacent packets. The 'A' 
and 'B' data lines (4, 5) respectively carry packets from 
respective 'A' and 'B' sub-multiplexes or subframes. A 
number of service recovery devices (6, 7, 8) are coupled to 
both the data lines (4, 5) for recovering service information 
from appropriately addressed 'BC' packets containing ser­
vice information When a 'BI' packet containing service 
interpretation appears on a data line the service recovery 
device with the corresponding address produces an output 
BID which causes the (BI′ packet (which is still in the RAM 
(3)) to load the 'BI' packet into a processor memory (14) 
during the interval following its appearance. A microcompu­
ter (9) uses this stored information to control the service 
recovery devices.

IPC: F04B39/10
Filed: 1986-09-24
Abstract: The valve employs a buffered valve seat; a buffer plate is 
interposed between the seat and the valving element. Con­
sequently, the valving element can manifest an increased lift, 
whereby the valve will offer an improved performance, as the 
buffer plate dampens the impact of the valving element dur­
ing valve closure. Springs accelerate the return of the valving 
element toward the seat and, as the buffer plate has no 
spring-assisted seating, it intercepts the valving element in its 
closure. A guide ring shoulder restricts the lift of the buffer 
plate.

Abstract: An optical fibre network which does not require 
the fibre (1) to be broken to introduce new terminals 
(nodes) (3). Information is introduced into the fibre by 
modulating, particularly by modulating mode coupling, 
optical power transmitted into the fibre from a source 
(2) at one or both of its ends. The nodes include 
tapping means for extracting information. If resonant 
mode coupling is employed a common grating (11,16) may be 
used for introducing and extracting information. Such a 
non-intrusive network may be overlaid on a conventional 
local area optical network (30 Fig.7) between two nodes 
(B,C) thereof, the fibre being common to both networks. 
The nodes (A-G) of the conventional network communicate 
in one direction along the fibre, whereas the nodes (31 
to 36) of the non-intrusive network communicate in the 
opposite direction along the fibre.

Title: Craze-resistant polymodal linear block copolymers with terminal tapered blocks
IPC: C08F297/04
Filed: 1987-03-23
Abstract: Sequential charging of initiator and monomers in a multistage solution polymerization process involving conjugated diene and monovinylaromatic monomers wherein the final charge is a mixture of these monomers results in the production of resinous polymodal linear block copolymers each with a terminal tapered block. A typical 5-stage charge sequence is as follows: Stage 1: (Si); Stage 2: (Si); Stage 3: (B); Stage 4: (Si); Stage 5: (S+B) wherein (Si) is monovinylaromatic monomer and initiator; (B) is conjugated diene monomer and (S+B) is monovinylaromatic monomer and conjugated diene monomer. At each stage, polymerization is allowed to continue until no free monomer is present. The trimodal block copolymer products comprise high, medium and low molecular weight species designated, respectively, as S1-S2-B1-S3-B2->S4; S2-B1-S3-B2->S4; and S3-B2->S4 wherein S1, S2 and S3 represent, respectively, polyvinylaromatic blocks resulting from polymerization of the first, second and third charges of monovinylaromatic monomer (stages 1,2 and 4); B1 represents a polydiene block resulting from polymerization of the first charge of conjugated diene monomer (stage 3); and B2->S4 represents a terminal tapered copolymer block resulting from polymerization of the conjugated diene and monovinylaromatic monomers (stage 5). The subject copolymers can be fabricated into sheets and molded objects possessing little color, a high degree of transparency and excellent impact resistance. These fabricated products do not craze on being impacted.
