Abstract: A pipe coupling comprising a sealing gasket (4) to fit over adjacent ends of pipes to be connected end-to-end and a housing which clamps around the gasket, has the housing in the form of a cast metal or alloy band (3) which substantially encircles the gasket and has at its circumferential ends opposed lugs (7,8) between which a wedge portion (17) of the gasket extends, and which are connected by at least one clamping bolt (5) engaged with retaining means (6) whereby the lugs (7,8) can be urged towards one another to contract the band (3) onto the gasket. The lugs grip the wedge portion (17) as the band is contracted to prevent the body of the gasket from bulging outwardly between the lugs. Preferably the band is made of a ductile metal or alloy, e.g. ductile iron, and is slightly oval in its free state so that it assumes a substantially true circular form when fully contracted onto the gasket.

Abstract: A digital signal recording method wherein an error correction code is added to each of a digital video signal and a digital audio signal, and both the encoded data are recorded on a recording medium with the encoded audio data superimposed on the encoded video data or with part of the encoded video data is replaced by the encoded audio data. The region for superimposing recording or the region for replacing recording is variable accordingly to the number of channels of the digital audio signal. The error correcting capability for the video signal is substantially the same as that for the audio signal, and the redundancy in encoding is small. Audio signals of any number of channels can be recorded without changing the number of recording bits.

Abstract: A multimedia communication apparatus can perform communication while multiplexing multimedia information comprising voice information, video information, data and the like. If the transmission rate of video information in a first channel is greater than a predetermined value, a new additional channel is not connected even if a plurality of channels are connectable. It is thereby possible to automatically set the minimum number of channels necessary for the communication of video information, and to prevent setting of an unnecessary additional channel.

Abstract: A constellation of satellites (14) which are distributed around the earth serves as a communications infrastructure that supports autonomous position determination and reporting of that position to a remote location. Satellites (14) continuously broadcast (100) acquisition signals. Position determining units (PDUs) (40) are remotely programmed (156, 162) to activate upon the occurrence of an activation event (120). If PDUs can capture (126) an acquisition signal, then they engage in activities which lead to determining their position and they coordinate their communications with the requirements of the communications infrastructure. To determine position, a location pulse may be transmitted (144) on a regular schedule. The location pulse is transported between a fast moving satellite (14) and a PDU (40). The movement of the satellite (14) causes different location pulses to have different propagation delays and Doppler characteristics. By analyzing changes in propagation delays and Doppler characteristics, a procedure (170) determines a position for a PDU (40).

The resilient roll includes a columnar roll body (10) formed of a resilient material, and a coating layer (30) formed on an outer circumferential surface of the roll body. The thickness of the coating layer (30) is varied in an axial direction of the roll body, such that the coating layer has the largest thickness at an axially middle point of the roll body, and such that the thickness is gradually reduced from the middle point toward axially opposite ends of the roll body. Also disclosed is a method of producing such a crowned resilient roll having a coating layer of varying thickness. Furthermore the crowned roll comprises an intermediate layer (32) disposed between the roll body (10) and said coating layer, for preventing a softener from oozing out of the roll body; this layer is formed principally of a polymer containing N-methoxymethylated nylon.

Abstract: Polypropylene waxes having good crystallinity and good processing properties can be obtained by solution polymerisation at a temperature above 110 DEG C if the polymerisation is carried out in the presence of a catalyst system prepared from an alkoxymagnesium compound, a tetravalent titanium compound, a silicon compound and an organoaluminium compound. The polypropylene waxes prepared by the process are hard, tough, colourless, non-tacky, thermostable, readily grindable products having an isotacticity, determined by IR spectroscopy, of greater than 70% and a melt viscosity of from 50 to 4000 mPa.s, measured at 170 DEG C. The waxes are suitable, for example, as base materials for pigment preparation, for scratchproofing of printing inks, for matting surface coating materials (paints, lacquers, enamels, varnishes), as assistants (auxiliaries) in the processing of plastics, for example as lubricants and release agents, as a formulation component in phototoners, and as melting point elevators.

Abstract: An ophthalmic lens pallet is provided having wells for receiving one or more lens containers at the receiving point. The pallet achieves the requisite uniformity of motion needed in the direction of motion and stability when transporting the lens in the orthogonal, non-translating directions by restraining the pallet between rails. Mechanical bias means such as a spring-loaded roller ball located on the side walls of the pallet body cooperate with guide rails on the conveyor to compress the mechanical bias means when the pallet is between the guide rails. Engagement means on the pallet engage a drive means which transports the pallet from the lens receiving point to an inspection station then to a lens disposition mechanism. The pallet wells comprise holes that pass through the pallet. These holes along with the rail and transport system make possible an arrangement of a lamp and camera for capturing an image of a lens.
