IPC: B65H75/18
Filed: 1997-07-30
Abstract: A dispenser (100), a flexible sheet material roll (12), and a dispensing system for dispensing flexible meterial from the sheet material rolls. The system includes a rolled products dispenser and sheet material rolls. The dispenser includes opposing lateral side wall surfaces (104, 114), and a guide track (110, 111) located in each of the lateral side wall surfaces. At least one of the two guide tracks includes an elongated guide projection (124). Each sheet material roll includes flexible sheet material wound around a hollow center core having first and second ends, and first (118) and second (119) end caps positioned in respective ends of the hollow center core (116). Both end caps have an inwardly projecting portion located side the hollow centre core, and an outwardly projecting cylindrical spindle (120, 121) extending outwardly past their respective end of the hollow center core. The spindles guide the roll within the guide tracks of the dispenser. The spindle of one of the end caps includes at least one annular groove (126) in its circumference which interfaces with the elongated guide projection of the guide track, to provide a system where the roll is keyed to fit the dispenser. This assures proper orientation of the rolls in the dispenser, and provides an arrangement for coordinating the quality of the rolls being dispensed from specific dispensers.

Title: Railway track construction shims and method of constructing railway track
IPC: E01B29/00
Filed: 2004-10-19
Abstract: An insert for a multiple component container includes a reservoir with an opening defined by a peripheral edge which, in use, is connected to a sealing element (20). In use, the reservoir and the sealing element define a substantially sealed space. The reservoir includes a stationary portion (2) and a movable portion (4), which is connected to the stationary portion and is movable with respect thereto by the action of gas pressure within the reservoir. A discharge opening (6) is formed in the movable portion (4) and a gas leakage path is provided in the reservoir wall. A valve member (14) is connected to the stationary portion (2) and cooperates with the discharge opening (6) and substantially seals it. The application of a greater gas pressure to the interior of the reservoir than to its exterior results in movement of the movable portion (4) away from the stationary portion (2) and thus in the valve member (14) moving out of sealing contact with the discharge opening (6).

Title: Processing seismic data
IPC: G01V1/36
Filed: 2003-05-27
Abstract: A method of determining a vertical component of particle velocity from seismic data acquired using at least one receiver disposed within a water column includes determining the vertical component of particle velocity from the pressure at a first location and a second location. The first location is the location of a first receiver, and is vertically beneath the second location. The method uses an operator accurate for seismic data acquired at a vertical separation between the first and second locations of up to at least 0.4 times the minimum wavelength of seismic energy used to acquire the seismic data.

Title: Cyclone separator
Filed: 2005-07-04
Abstract: A cyclone separator unit comprising a cyclone assembly mounted to a dirt collection receptacle 24. The cyclone separator unit comprises a cyclone chamber 28 and a cyclone outlet tube 32 formed with a number of windows in which a mesh is fitted to provide perforations 31. In use dirt-laden air enters the cyclone chamber 28 via inlet port 30, and is constrained to follow a swirling path so solid particles migrate towards the circumferential wall of the cyclone chamber 28. The air from which the solid particles have been separated is drawn through the perforations in outlet tube 32 and flows upwardly through the outlet tube 32. The solid particles pass into receptacle 24 through opening 37. A secondary airflow is set up between the outlet 37, the interior of the receptacle 24 and the outlet tube 32 without returning to the chamber 28. The secondary airflow assists in transferring the separated dirt and dust into receptacle 24. The cyclone assembly is pivotally mounted to the receptacle 24 to allow the receptacle to be emptied. Other optional elements include filter unit 26, chamber lower wall 34, mesh screen 36 and radially enlarge portion of chamber 29.

Title: Horse heart rate monitor system
Filed: 2006-12-22
Abstract: An equine heart rate monitor (4) provided with electrodes (2) is mounted to a saddle girth (1). When the girth (1) is used to secure a saddle (11) to a horse (10), the electrodes (2) contact the horse's skin above and below the level of its heart, while a main body of the monitor (4) is located on an outer face (8) of the girth (1) away from the horse (10). The electrodes (2) detect the horse's heart beat, and a short-range radio transmitter within the monitor (4) transfers heart rate data wirelessly to a display device wearable, for example, on a rider's wrist. The rider thus has a continuous real-time display of the horse's heart rate, and optionally calculated maximum, minimum and average heart rates, so that an exercise session may be tailored to provide maximum benefit to the horse's fitness without exhausting it.

Title: Improvements in computer graphics systems
IPC: G09G5/14
Filed: 1988-02-29
Abstract: A multi-tasking, multiple windowing computer graphics facility which does not place undue burdens upon the processing power of its host computer comprises a multi-planar memory to which data defining windows to be displayed in viewports on a display screen can be written, and a plurality of viewport controllers each individually associated with a respective one of the memory planes and capable of extracting data from each of a plurality of windows defined in its respective memory plane for effecting a corresponding display in any desired viewport location on the display screen. For the management of overlapping viewports, the window-viewport assignments which determine the display locations of viewports on the display screen include viewport priority indications which are taken into account in the reading out of data from the several planes of the multi-planar memory so that overlapping viewports are handled automatically and can appear transparent or opaque relative to one another as required. Windows can be created of any size and any number of planes deep (up to the available depth of the display memory), and opaque or transparent images can be moved freely around the display screen without requiring modification of the data in the memory by flexibly mapping windows in the display memory to viewports on the screen. A VRAM (video RAM) multi-planar memory is used and the viewport controllers are configured as modular VLSI components which can be cascaded for addressing any number of memory planes.
