Abstract: The invention relates to a single-handle faucet (1), the flow rate of the water from it being controllable by a lifting or lowering movement of the handle (2) of the faucet and the mixing of hot and cold water by a transversal rotational movement of the handle. According to the invention the movement of the handle (2) is limited by at least two stops (13-15) placed transversal to each other and a limiting lever (16) colliding therewith, whereby one of the stops (13, 14) limits the flow rate from the faucet and the other one (15) the temperature of the water obtained therefrom. The limiting lever (16) is connected to a push-button (12) in such a way that the set limits can be exceeded by moving the limiting tip (22) of the limiting lever past the corresponding stops using the push-button and then continuing the movement of the handle. <IMAGE>

Patent NO-179375-C (NO)
Inventor: MENGES WILHELM
IPC: D21B1/02
Filed: 1991-12-16
Abstract: A device for reprocessing, that is to say for disintegrating, used packaging materials, for example unsorted household paper, is described. The device essentially consists of a first comminution unit (14), a downstream trough-like housing (2) with an agitator (4, 6) rotating therein and a further comminution unit (18) located in the material outlet shaft (16). The device is also provided at its lower end with a heavy dirt collection chamber (26). The comminution units (14 and 18) are exchangeable and, depending on the processing requirements, it is possible to choose between purely cutting tools, more chopping or even disintegrating tools. The first comminution unit (14) serves for comminuting raw material with in part large surface area to give a conveyable size of pieces, while the second comminution unit (18) essentially serves for fine comminution and disintegration of the material. In the interposed trough, purification of the material can take place, it being possible to operate with washing fluid circulation via the connections (38, 34, 36 and 28). In this case, low-density stock operation is envisaged. The device can, however, also be operated in the high-density stock range, where disintegration can already start in the trough (2). The stock leaving the device has been pretreated in such a way that it can be separated by means of screen-sorting devices into its components which are to be treated further.

Title: Entropy encoder/decoder including a context extractor
Inventor: CHAMZAS CHRISTODOULOS
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 1990-04-24
Granted: 1994-09-20
Abstract: ENTROPY ENCODER/DECODER             INCLUDING A CONTEXT EXTRACTOR          Abstract In entropy, e.g., arithmetic or adaptive Huffman, encoding/decoding a context based on prior symbols is needed to provide accurate predictions of symbols to be encoded/decoded. Encoding/decoding efficiency is improved by employing an adaptive context extractor. The adaptive context extractor automatically adjusts the configuration of the lag intervals used to define the context. This is realized by adaptively incorporating into the context configuration at least one lag interval found to have a "good" predictive value relative to the particular symbol stream being encoded/decoded. The context configuration adjustment is such that the at least one found lag interval is exchanged with the lag interval currently in an at least one so-called floating predictor position. (FIG. 1)

Abstract: A transparent overlay that can protect a document from tampering has a transparent cover sheet, a layer of hot-melt adhesive over one surface of the transparent cover sheet, and a polymeric image-receiving layer over the exposed face of said hot-melt adhesive layer. The transparent cover sheet can be a simple thermoplastic film but preferably is retroreflective sheeting which can bear a pattern or legend that is noticeable only when viewed retroreflectively. When the polymeric image-receiving layer is dye-receptive, it can be imaged by using a thermal printing head with a dye-donor element. A preferred polymeric image-receiving layer that is dye-receptive is chlorinated poly(vinylchloride).

Abstract: TECHNIQUE FOR INFORMATION PROTECTION ON FAULT-TOLERANT REDUNDANT INFORMATION             STORAGE DEVICES Abstract The present invention relates to a technique which provides swift and easy error correction and detection on one or more fault-tolerant redundant storage devices. In the present technique, an information packet including (a) the destined storage location identifier in a first section, (b) the information in a second section, and (e) a unique monotonically increasing number in a third section, is sent by a processor to one or more redundant storage device controllers for storage in relative locations of the redundant storage device(s), where the monotonically increasingnumber is incremented and applied to each sequential information packet to be stored on the redundant storage device(s). When relative storage locations of the redundant storage device(s) are subsequently read and the information is found not to match, an error has occurred on one of the storage device(s), and if the storage location identifier on the compared information packets are also found not to match, then the information packet including the correct storage location identifier is used However, if the storage location identifiers are found to match, then the compared information packet with the higher monotonically increasing number is deemed to contain the correct information.

Abstract: Disclosed are barley flour fractions having concentrated levels of soluble dietary fiber ("SDF"). The barley flour fractions have SDF contents ranging from about 18% to 30%. Also disclosed are dry milling concentration methods for making the high soluble dietary fiber content barley flour fractions. The milling methods involve size reducing a barley flour, especially a 70% to 80% extraction flour, having a native SDF level to a controlled particle size distribution to form a size reduced flour. this is accomplished by a single pass pinmilling step followed by particle size classification at an opening of 30-60 microns to separate the size reduced flour into,a starchy fraction and the present barley flour fraction having a 1.2×-5× concentration of SDF compared to the native SDF level.

Abstract: A  condensing furnace which includes an outdoor coil of  the type having aluminum fins pressed to copper tubes through which a refrigerant is conducted.   Heat is generated,  preferably from a flame,  and  the relatively intense  temperature  (approximately 2200°F.) is  de-intensified before reaching the aluminum fins  by generally sinusoidal de-intensifier tubes positioned between  the flames and the fins of the coil.   Since the de-intensifier tubes reduce  the temperature of the flue of gases virtually  instantly to approximately 50°F.,  condensation forms not only upon the de-intensifier  tubes  but also upon the aluminum fins of  the  coil which prevents acidic deterioration and corrosion thereof,  while at the same time maintaining extremely hight Btu abosorption.

Abstract: Lead inclusion in copper-containing wrought alloys is coming into disfavor due to health and environmental considerations. Machinability, as well as retention of workability properties, associated with lead inclusion are assured by bismuth together with a modifying element, phosphorus, indium or tin, with such modifying element minimizes the workability-precluding embrittlement otherwise associated with bismuth. Fabrication of product dependent upon properties of the large variety of lead-containing alloys is so permitted by use of lead-free material.
