Title: Correction for frequency and temperature in output power control in rf transmitter
Inventor: KIM YOUNG-KI
IPC: H04W52/06
Filed: 1997-12-30
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling the power of the RF signal output by a transmitter which is operable over a range of frequencies and a range of temperatures. Typically, power control means are arranged to control the output power of an RF signal operating at a fixed temperature and frequency. However, the compensation used in such simple system is inadequate for ensuring a substantially constant output power in a transmitter which is operable over a range of frequencies and temperatures. Accordingly, in the present invention the operational frequency of the RF signal is determined. The operational temperature of the transmitter is determined. An offset for the power level is calculated, the offset being derived from the operational frequency and operational temperature. An estimate of the output power level is calculated and the output power level is adjusted according to the estimate of the power level.

Title: Screen printing stencil production
Inventor: JONES JOHN WILLIAM
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1998-02-17
Abstract: A coated film product comprises a support base 3, a stencil-forming layer 1 and an intermediate release layer 2. The stencil-forming layer is a blend of two grades of polyvinyl alcohol having different degrees of hydrolysis. The stencil-forming layer is imaged by dropwise application (for example using an ink-jet printer or plotter) of a cross-linking agent 4 which hardens the stencil-forming layer to resist washing out with water. The hardened areas remaining after washing out are however sufficiently tacky for the washed-out film to adhere to the screen mesh by application of pressure and, after removal of the support base, form the stencil layer of a screen-printing screen.

Title: Lawnmower.
Inventor: COUSSINS ADRIAN
IPC: H01M50/249
Filed: 1998-08-11
Abstract: A number of improvements to lawn mowers having a blade rotating about a vertical axis are described. These include improvements to a height adjustment mechanism (Figs. 1-6), a cutting blade (Figs. 7-11), a height adjustable rear roller (Figs. 12-16), a folding handle (Figs. 17-21), a grass distribution system (Figs. 24-26) and a grass collecting box (Figs. 22-28). Of more general applicability are improvements to the electrical connection of batteries in battery powered mowers (Figs. 30-32). The height adjustment mechanism acts on all four wheels of the mower simultaneously. Each wheel (14,20, Fig. 1) is carried by a stub axle 17, 21 mounted on a pivot arm 15, 22. Each pivot arm pivots about axles 16, 23 which are mounted to the body of the mower and which extend across the width of the mower to connect together pivot arms located on opposite sides. A link arm 25 is pivotally coupled to the front and rear pivot arms on one side of the mower and a spring (26, Fig. 1) secured between the link arm and an axle biases the mower into a high position. The link arm is held at selected positions by means of a downwardly projecting indexing member 28 provided on the link arm which cooperates with an upwardly biased engaging member 29 mounted on the body of the mower.

Title: Thermal tape transfer mechanism wherein the tape is driven in a reverse direction following a print action for reuse thereof
Inventor: RACZ PATRICK OLIVER
IPC: B41J17/14
Filed: 1999-05-05
Abstract: The mechanism includes two spools 46,49 between which a transfer tape 43 is fed via guide rollers 42. The spools, which are driven in opposite directions by a roller 44 and belt 45, are arranged such that only one spool is driven at any one time. In use, when the feed on spool 49 is driven, the tape is fed in a forward direction, and when the take up spool 46 is driven, the tape is fed in a reverse direction. Before a print action, the tape is accelerated to the same velocity as a moving substrate A and a print action occurs thereon via a printhead 41. The tape is then decelerated and re-wound during a non-print period of the printhead before it is accelerated again to the same velocity as the substrate for the next print action over the used tape. The arrangement reduces wasted tape.

Title: Resilient bushings for a motor vehicle suspension link assembly
Inventor: HAM JR DONALD R
IPC: B60G7/02
Filed: 1999-10-29
Abstract: The link assembly includes a link having a barrel portion (34) at each end.

IPC: G03B5/00
Filed: 1990-01-18
Abstract: PURPOSE:To take a photograph without having blurring by limiting the blurring to a prescribed value or below, corresponding to a focal distance concerning to a calculated blurring limiting shutter speed. CONSTITUTION:A limiting circuit limiting the blurring limiting time with a time determined corresponding to the focal distance of a photographing lens when the blurring limiting time calculated by an arithmetic circuit is lower speed than the time determined corresponding to the focal distance of the photographing lens is provided. When a blurring limiting time value obtained by detecting a change in an image signal from the same object in different times is lower than a shutter time represented by the inverse number of the focal distance of the photographing lens, the shutter time indicated by the inverse number of the focal distance is set to the blurring limiting time. Thus, the blurring at the time of photographing is prevented.
