Abstract: In high-speed packet switching, packets of specific connections (CS1, CS2), e.g. speech, moving image, are to be handled with higher priority than packets of other connections (PS1, PS2, PS3), e.g. data, without delay jitter and without losses. 
<??>In a known method, a division is made into a line-switching component (for CS1, CS2) and a packet-switching component (for PS1, PS2, PS3). The line-switching component operates using synchronous time-division multiplexing. In each case, for example, 70 packets, each comprising 40 octets, are combined on each input line to form a frame. Without special measures, this would produce delays in each switching stage of the order of 40 x 70 x 8 bits = 22,400 bits; for each input of a switching stage 22,400 bits of memory space would be required. 
<??>According to the invention, all packets are divided in the exchange into packet parts of equal length and distributed among sub-frames. Switching is carried out on the basis of sub-frames. Delays and memory space requirements are reduced by the frame : sub-frame ratio. 
<??>Fixed positions are preferably allocated to the higher-priority connections (CS1, CS2) in each frame and each sub-frame for the entire duration of the connection. 
<??>Packet parts of the remaining packets are preferably arranged in sequence in remaining free positions and re-combined within each switching stage to form complete packets.

Abstract: A fluid leak detector has a body (1) with a chamber (28) provided with a fluid inlet (3) and outlet (4). A valve is disposed between the inlet and outlet and the valve closure member (5) is connected to a diaphragm (6). Fluid in the chamber applies pressure on the diaphragm and the detector includes means (8) which allow the value to be open at a pressure greater than a predetermined value and cause the valve to close at pressures below that value, which may be due to a fluid leak. The detector has a safety lock-off mechanism (7, 9, 20, 21, 22, 23) which locks the valve once it has closed and which must be reset to allow the valve to open when fluid pressure has been restored. The detector also provides a visual indication of fluid leaks. A fluid supply installation incorporating the fluid leak detector will shut down the fluid supply if a leak is detected.

IPC: E02D27/02
Filed: 1989-04-27
Granted: 1993-04-14
Abstract: Known casings for foundation parts for spread foundations are of channel-shaped design with constant spacing of the side walls, although it is already known that foundation parts of this type can perfectly well be narrower at their top side than at their bottom side. However, since the labour cost of a casing of this type with a narrowing cross-section is relatively high, the foundation parts, in practice, have hitherto been produced with a constant cross-section even with the known casing and the additional concrete requirement has been accepted. It is therefore proposed to use a lattice (5) consolidated with plastic film (6) for the novel casing (l, 11). Due to the flexibility of this material, the labour required for a casing of a foundation part with reduced cross-section can be decidedly reduced. <IMAGE>

Title: Tamperproof, single use, disposable tattoo equipment
IPC: A61M37/00
Filed: 1989-07-06
Granted: 1993-06-02
Abstract: A tattoo needle bar holder (4) and needle bar assembly (12) is fashioned so as to be economical to manufacture and therefore readily disposable in order to promote sanitary conditions in the tattoo industry. The needle bar holder (4) is preferably formed from a plastic material in order to render it incapable of withstanding sterilization processes involving very high pressures and temperatures, which would render the holder incapable of further use. The material is preferably also stained by the inks normally used in the industry, thereby serving to alert persons of any prior use. The caps (2, 3) which seal the assembly prior to use are preferably formed to require the breakage of a frangible portion upon removal in order to prevent the reinstallation of the caps. The needle bar assembly (12) is composed of several relatively simple components for ease of manufacture, and contains an eye (18) and plastic or elastomer grommet (19) at the upper end of the needle bar for precise attachment to the tattooing mechanism. The grommet is also of a material which would be damaged under conditions of extreme pressure and/or temperature, thereby rendering the needle bar assembly to which it is attached incapable of further use if sterilization is attempted.
