Abstract: A pre-form and a method of preparing pre-forms are provided. The pre-forms comprise a resin and at least two layers of oriented fibre tows. The pre-forms comprise fibre tows instead of the traditional prepregs to enhance rearranging of resin and/or fibres during subsequent processing as well as provide greater freedom, a price reduction and/or a reduction of waste. The pre-forms may be formed three-dimensionally to enhance coupling to further pre-forms or other structures and/or to enhance shaping of the pre-form to a final three-dimensional shape.  The method of preparation of pre-forms involves providing an adhesive between layers of fibres and providing a resin in contact with at least one of the layers of fibres. The resin is preferably provided in a non-continuous layer to allow for removal of gas at least partially in a direction orthogonal to the layers of resin.  The pre-forms are suitable for preparation of composite structures like for example spars for wind turbine blades.

Abstract: In order to package a stack of goods in an envelope of heat-shrinkable plastic material such as polyethylene, with prevention of adhesion between the envelope and the goods which may themselves be wrapped in similar sheet material, the stack is placed on a pallet and is covered by the envelope whose lower rim is clamped between the legs of the pallet and an apertured supporting surface such as an upper run of a chain conveyor. The envelope is then inflated from below, by way of the supporting surface, with a low-temperature gas such as ambient air, to establish significant clearances between the stack and the inner surface of the envelope which is then thermally shrunk around the stack by training jets of hot gas onto its outer surface. In zones where the envelope is in contact with the stack, as along edges of the latter, the heating intensity may be reduced to avoid fusion with individual wrappings.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with a sweeper, meaning a sweeper with a rotary main brush opposite a hopper, and increasing its ability to load light debris, such as paper, dry leaves and the like so that light debris will be propelled farther into the debris hopper. This is done by setting the speed of the main brush at a lower speed for normal operation to effectively throw what may be thought of as heavier material, such as sand, forwardly into the hopper with the speed being such that excessive wear of the brush is avoided and a higher speed of rotation being effected from time to time so that paper, dry leaves and the like, which may be considered lightweight material, are thrown farther into the hopper with the increased speed of the main brush overcoming the air resistance that normally stops such lightweight material which, at normal operation of the brush, tends to pile up in the rear of the hopper. The sweeper uses a vacuum fan to create a suction in the hopper with the vacuum fan also being speeded up with the brush speed increase which assists in loading the lightweight debris in the hopper. Since the increased speed is used for the main brush and vacuum fan only from time to time when light debris is encountered and on a limited basis, the increased brush wear and power consumption caused thereby is tolerable.

Abstract: An elevator control apparatus suppresses the jerk at the start-up of speed controlled elevator installations in both directions of travel, not only the friction jerk at the transition from the static friction to the sliding friction, but also the imbalance jerk at unbalanced car loads. A set point signal multiplier is connected to the output side of a set point memory in the hoist motor drive control and the set point multiplying factor can be controlled by way of an on/off circuit. The multiplier is switched, prior to the start of the movement, by the on/off circuit to a value greater than one, and is switched back to one at start of movement in the direction of travel. The motor driving force is controlled to a value which, when summed with the imbalance force, is equal to the sliding friction force at start-up. This suppression of jerks is eminently suitable for the refitting of controlled elevator drives and increases, due to the earlier start of movement, their elevating capacity.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To execute natural speech conversion even if target speeches do not exist in a corresponding play portion in the case where the generating source of the speeches is entirely different like in the case where the tones of a musical instrument are converted to resemble the previously determined singing of a singer. SOLUTION: The sinusoidal wave components and residual components of the input speeches are deformed in accordance with the sinusoidal wave component and residual components extracted from the input speeches and the target sinusoidal wave components and target residual components extracted from the target speeches and the converted speeches are formed by synthesizing the components.  In this case, when the portions, which are the portions of the target voices and are required to be made correspondent to the input speeches, are silent portions, the sinusoidal wave components and residual components of the input speeches are deformed in accordance with the preset silent part sinusoidal wave components and silent part residual components in place of the target sinusoidal wave components and target residual components and, therefore, the natural speech conversion may be executed even when the generating source of the speech is entirely heterogeneous and the target speeches do not exist in the corresponding playing portions.

Abstract: In the conventional discharge printing on polyamide fiber materials using acid dyes, above all, the very low wet and light fastness properties of the designs obtained in this manner are frequently an obstacle to the wide expansion of this interesting technique in practice. Applying this known patterning method for wool or nylon to resist prints made with reactive dyes being distinguished by better fastness level, does not always produce satisfactory white resist effects when, for example, sulfite compounds as the resist agent and reactive dyes having esterified  beta -hydroxyethylsulfonyl groups as the reactive radical are taken into consideration; colored effects having a bright hue are not even possible at all in various cases. It has now been found that, using sulfite compounds and reactive dyes of the vinylsulfonyl type, the above mentioned difficulties can be remedied when, instead of the ester derivatives of said dyestuffs, according to this invention such dyes which have been converted before they are applied into the free vinylsulfonyl form, are brought to interaction with the preprinted resist agent to become immediately and completely desactivated and thus resulting unobjectionable resist effects at the respective places of the textile material.

Abstract: A system for allowing software publishers to control which video standard(s) can be recovered from an optical disk (23) containing video source material. The disk may be digitally encoded so that any of NTSC, PAL and other video signal standards can be generated upon proper decoding. But the disk also includes a code which can lock out one or more standards. Players (21) for such disks may be capable of generating video signals according to all popular standards, in which case the user selects a desired standard. However, the player will generate a video signal of the selected standard only if there is an appropriate authorization code on the disk. The system allows manufacture of "universal" players without necessarily impacting the contractual and marketing plans of motion picture companies, for example, which release films in different territories at different times. The control technique can be extended to lock out specific territories. Each player has a built-in territory code. The player will play a disk only if the disk contains an authorization code for the player's specific territory.
