Title: Auto-tuning scanning proximity reader
Inventor: WATKINS RANDY
IPC: H04B5/02
Filed: 2000-01-03
Abstract: A proximity reader (10) for a radio frequency identification (RFID) system is programmed using microprocessor (12) and peak detector (20) for determining and storing optimum antenna impedance values for tuning capacitors (22) to achieve peak antenna resonance at each of multiple operating frequencies generated by oscillator (18) and radiated by antenna (14). Antenna resonance is peaked at power up and periodically during operation to compensate for environmental detuning influences.

Title: A method of and apparatus for packaging a beverage in a container
IPC: B65B31/04
Filed: 1992-10-07
Abstract: A method of and apparatus for packaging a beverage in a container 1 having a primary chamber and a relatively smaller secondary chamber which communicates with the primary chamber by way of a restricted orifice has the exterior of the container maintained at atmospheric pressure. The container such as a can 1 to be charged with beer is engaged within a filling head block 24 through nozzles 35 from which beer 9 is to flow into the can 1 from a bowl 8. Prior to filling the can 1 is pressurised through the head 24 with nitrogen gas to greater than atmospheric pressure and subsequently evacuated to atmospheric pressure by control of valves 32, 33. Such pressurisation and evacuation may be repeated sequentially to dilute the atmospheric oxygen content within the primary and secondary chambers of the can 1 where the oxygen has negligible effect on the beer which is to be sold in the can. A gas exchange conduit 40 extends between the bowl headspace 12 and the can 1. Conduit 40 has a port 41 of a gas control valve 55 which port 41 is closable by movement of lever 60. A beer flow valve 37/46 controls flow of beer 9 from the bowl through nozzles 35. During pressurisation of the can 1 with nitrogen gas the lever 60 is adjusted to maintain closed the port 41 of the gas flow valve and the beer flow valve 37/46 to ensure that high pressure gas in the can 1 cannot flow by way of the gas exchange conduit 40 into the bowl headspace 12 and again flow through the nozzles 35 into the beer 9 in the bowl 8. <IMAGE>

IPC: E04H12/22
Filed: 1997-04-04
Abstract: A device and a method for repairing of posts, in particular lamp posts, in which the lamp post (1) is cut off in the area of the damaged portion, which is then removed from the two parts (2, 7) of the post. Subsequently, the post parts (2, 7) are jointed by means of a jointing device comprising a jointing pipe (8) exhibiting a longitudinal slit (9), which pipe is made of an elastically deformable and resilient material. When being inserted into the post parts (2, 7), the jointing pipe is squeezed together, and the squeezing ceases after the insertion into the post parts in order for the jointing pipe to spring back elastically. Subsequently, the post parts are pushed together essentially end to end so as to form a stable joint between the two parts of the post.

Title: System incorporating two different sphero-non-spherical contact lenses for correcting presbyopia
Inventor: MERCURE ROBERT
IPC: G02C7/04
Filed: 1996-01-10
Abstract: The first contact lens is placed on the dominating eye and includes a central spherical area for distance vision, which is surrounded by an annular non-spherical area having a diopter in the form of progressive addition which varies from zero addition at the inner periphery to a maximum addition at the outer periphery, and which enables vision, at all distances including reading. The second contact lens is placed on the dominated eye. The central area is spherical and adjusted for reading. The non-spherical annular area has a progressive reduction from maximum addition to zero addition, which enables vision from reading to intermediate and distance vision. This system provides in most cases 95-100% vision at all distances.
