Patent CA-2113300-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GALCHEFSKI JOHN M
IPC: B65C3/10
Filed: 1994-01-12
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus  (10)  for applying a label onto a small, cylindrical article (A), such as a dry cell battery, is disclosed.  A rotatable label transport drum (20) has a central,  horizontal axis.   A label  is fed to the drum surface, retained thereto as the drum rotates, and moved with the rotating drum into an article wrapping position (21) defined at the upper area of the drum.   An article delivery system  (240),  such as a  star transfer wheel, delivers the articles sequentially onto the drum surface. The delivery system is spaced outward from the drum surface to clear the trailing edge of the label which is outwardly positioned from the drum surface.  An attractive force is imparted on the article in a direction so as to aid smooth delivery of the article onto the drum surface and the label moving therewith.  In one aspect of the invention, when the articles are magnetically attractive drycell batteries, at least one magnet  (252)  retains the drycells against an article engaging surface (434a) of a pressure plate (434) which defines an article entrance portion (250) that is disposed downward to the drum surface so that the drycells are smoothly and tangentially transferred onto the drum surface.  In another aspect of the invention, a web feed and cutting mechanism is disclosed.  In still another aspect of the invention, an adhesive delivery system using a gravure roller is disclosed.

Patent CA-2115785-A1 (CA)
Title: Nonreturn valve, particularly for medical fluid technology applications
Inventor: MYERS JAN W M
IPC: A61M39/24
Filed: 1994-02-16
Abstract: A nonreturn valve for use in controlling the flow of medical fluid. The valve has two mating valve shells which carry and communicate with first and second pipe connectors, respectively.      A diaphragm with a protrusion on its periphery is held between the valve shells. Circumferentially disposed retaining formations on each of the valve shells causes pretension to occur in the diaphragm upon assembly of the valve shells. The axial location of the retaining formation on the valve shell which carries the valve seat is such that tension in the diaphragm lightly urges the diaphragm into sealing engagement with the valve seat, whereby a seal exists when there is no significant pressure on either side of the diaphragm.

Title: An improved ribbon cable construction
Inventor: LODER HARRY A
IPC: H01B11/00

Inventor: KOSS MICHAEL J
IPC: H04R1/10
Filed: 1993-03-09
Abstract: A dual element headphone, including a first acoustic transducer mounted within a first housing so as to direct sound in a certain direction out of the first housing. The first housing is sized small enough so as to at least partially fit into the cavum concha of a listener's ear, and yet be larger in area than the entrance of the external acoustic meatus of the listener's ear. The first acoustic transducer is supported in the listener's ear so as to direct the sound generated by the transducer toward the entrance of the external acoustic meatus. A second acoustic transducer is mounted within a second housing. That second housing is substantially larger than the first housing, and overlies at least a portion of the auricle of the listener's ear. A crossover circuit divides the electrical signals received by the headphone, and transmits signals for higher frequencies to the first, smaller transducer and signals for lower frequencies to the second, larger transducer. The disclosure includes a headband and mounting plate, providing a set of these transducers for association with each ear. The first transducer may be flexibly mounted for improved comfort and sound fidelity.

Title: Microprocessor watchdog circuit
Inventor: ERDMAN JOHN L
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 1994-11-22
Abstract: A microprocessor watchdog circuit in which a voltage less than a reference voltage is supplied to a comparator substantially only in response to a pulse train status signal having a predetermined repetition rate. Repetition rate sensitivity results from a charge pump connected to receive the status pulse train through a series connected resistor and capacitor having a suitable time constant. The comparator output terminal, at which a reset signal is produced, provides a low impedance path to ground if the charge pump removes charge from a second capacitor more slowly than charge is supplied thereto through a charging resistor, thereby increasing the voltage supplied to the comparator.
