Title: Apparatus and method for compression of a signalling portion of a communications packet
Inventor: KUTKA ROBERT
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2002-03-22
Granted: 2004-05-26
Abstract: In a communications network 1, a signalling of a communication packet is compressed by firstly determining a difference, (15,16) between a first and a second subsequent signalling portion/header. This difference is used to produce a bit mask (17) and this bit mask is transmitted with the data. If the bit mask for the next packet is the same (18/19), then an indication that this is the case is transmitted with the data. The bit mask is not transmitted. A receiver upon detecting the indication will use as the bit mask the earlier received one. Thus less information needs to be transmitted and the signalling portion is compressed in a first and a second stage of compression thus saving bandwidth.

Title: Injection device
Inventor: CORRIGAN JOSEPH PETER
IPC: A61M5/20
Filed: 2006-06-01
Granted: 2011-07-13
Abstract: An injection device 110 is described having a housing 112 that receives a syringe 114 having a needle 118, wherein the syringe is supported in a syringe carrier 150. The syringe 114 and syringe carrier 150 are biased by a return spring 126 from an extended position in which the needle 118 extends from the housing 112 through an exit aperture 128 to a retracted position in which it does not. A drive spring 130 acts via a drive to advance the syringe 114 from its retracted position to its extended position and discharge its contents through the needle 118 and a return spring 126, brought into play when the drive has reached a nominal return position, restores the syringe 114 to its retracted position. The syringe carrier 150 is designed to restrict rearward movement of the syringe so that the injection device is less prone to failure and damage to is components than prior art devices.

Title: Production of knitted garments
IPC: A41D1/00
Filed: 1981-02-18
Granted: 1983-10-26
Abstract: A succession of seamless tubular garment blanks 11 are knitted integrally on a cylindrical knitting machine, each blank 11 including at one end thereof a welt or selvedge 12 forming part of a knitted elasticated portion 13 which is destined to form an elasticated waistband in the finished garment. The elasticated portion 13 is separated from the next succeeding blank 11 by a steam-soluble draw thread 14. After knitting, the blanks are flattened, pre-shrunk and separated in a single steam-treatment operation. An end of each blank remote from portion 13 is then shaped by a cutting machine, and the blank centre-crease folded in a conventional manner. Because the welt or selvedge 12 of each blank is knitted in finished form, there is no need for a separate hemming operation and the make-up of the garment is therefore improved.

Title: Determining parameters of e.g. ship radiating acoustic pulses into water
Inventor: ZIEGENBEIN JOCHEN
IPC: G01D/
Filed: 1984-04-17
Granted: 1987-07-01
Abstract: A moving target(S) e.g. a surface chip, radiates acoustic pulses into the water. Echoes are received (E) in an off-target direction (1) by reflections from discontinuities (SC,SC2) in the sea. Each discontinuity in the direction (1) reflects a pulse transmitted by the target (S) with a different Doppler shift, varying as a function of the bearing of the discontinuity relative to the target. The frequency-time characteristics of the eqitototal acoustic radiation received from the direction (I) is determined, and the required parameters can then be deduced by curve-fitting techniques. If acoustic radiation from three directions is monitored, some of the parameters can be calculated directly from the three frequency-time characteristics, without resotr to curve-fitting.

Abstract: The hemolytic method for the kinetic determination of antistreptolysin O antibodies (ASO) in blood samples consists of reacting a first reagent containing a single dose of oxidized SO with the specific antibodies which may be present in the blood sample under examination, allowing the necessary time to pass for the reaction between the oxidized SO and said antibodies to take place, returning the oxidized SO to its reduced state by adding a second reagent, and measuring the rate of hemolysis. The kinetic determination of the ASO titre is obtained by comparing said rate of hemolysis with the rate of hemolysis shown graphically for samples of known ASO titre.

Title: Braking system for pipeline inspection vehicle - which controls vehicles speed to that of average flow velocity of fluid in pipeline
IPC: F17D/
Filed: 1978-08-04
Granted: 1985-08-31
Abstract: A speed control device for a pipeline inspection pig includes a braking system which imposes a continuous axial drag on a pipeline wall. A hydraulic valve of a high-pressure hydraulic fluid system is operable to vary the imposed drag between upper and lower limits in response to transducer-generated signals representing actual vehicle speed. The summation of the variable drag characteristic of the pipeline and the imposed drag remains approx. constant, and the vehicle moves at a speed equal to the average flow velocity of the fluid in the pipeline. E.g. with pigs used to detect flaws in the internal surfaces of oil or gas pipelines. The pig travels a approx. the average speed of the fluid flowing in the pipeline, showing variations only within acceptable limits without violent accelerations or deccelerations. The speed control system may be applied to a tractor vehicle or to a towed vehicle.
