Title: Polyamide resin dispersions and method for the manufacture thereof
IPC: C08K5/17
Filed: 1989-02-02
Abstract: A method is provided for the preparation of stable 
aqueous dispersions of non-solvated, un-neutralized, low 
amine, low acid number polymerized fatty acid polyamide 
resins. Molten resin is blended with a predetermined 
amount of water at a temperature above the melting point 
of the polyamide resin in the presence of a cationic 
surfactant which is the salt of the amine of the formula: 
  
wherein R represents an alkyl having 16-20 carbon atoms 
and n₁ and n₂ are the same or different and each 
represents a whole number from 1-3 and n₃ is 0 or 1, is 
included in the mixture. The resulting mixture is then 
subjected to sufficient comminuting forces to form an 
emulsion in which droplets of the polyamide resin have a 
volume average size distribution of about 20 microns or 
less in diameter and preferably 5 microns or less. The 
resulting emulsion is then cooled to a temperature below 
the melting point of the polyamide resin causing the 
emulsified droplets of the polyamide resin to solidify as 
finely divided particles to form stable aqueous 
dispersions, which are especially useful for hot melted 
adhesive applications, when utilized in coatings, inks, 
and the like.

Title: Magnetic resonance apparatus
IPC: G01R33/44
Filed: 1989-08-18
Abstract: A magnetic resonance apparatus includes a static 
field generating section (1, 2), a gradient field 
generating section (3, 4), a high-frequency field 
generating section (7, 8), a signal acquiring section 
(9, 11), a data processing section (12), and a system 
control section (10). A magnetic resonance signal 
matrix is acquired as follows. While a gradient field 
is applied to an object to be examined, a plurality of 
selective inversion pulses having different frequencies 
as high-frequency fields are sequentially applied to the 
object. Thereafter, a non-selective excitation pulse as 
a high-frequency field is applied to the object without 
application of a gradient field. In addition, a magne­
tic resonance signal generated upon application of the 
non-selective excitation pulse is acquired. Such a 
series of sequences are repeated a plurality of times, 
while the frequencies of the selective inversion pulses 
are sequentially selected to cause a magnetization vec­
tor of a nuclear spin of an area corresponding to either 
of "-1" and "1" of an Hadamard matrix to be inverted by 
each selective inversion pulse. Chemical shift infor­
mation is obtained by transforming a magnetic resonance 
signal matrix thus acquired in an aligning direction of 
the magnetic resonance signal matrix by an inverse 
Hadamard transform, and transforming the transformed 
matrix in a time base direction by an inverse Fourier 
transform.

Title: Interchange object data base index
IPC: G06F17/21
Filed: 1989-01-10
Abstract: The need for private copies of an interchange document 
file in a computer system is eliminated by building a common 
architected index characterized in that (1) it includes 
selected indexable elements each having sufficient associated 
pointers for environment and resource specifications to be 
accessed as stand-alone entities and (2) is structured to be 
handled by all users (application programs or processes) 
understanding the interchange protocol. Normal work with a 
file requires reading the entire document file and building a 
process' own index. This requires excessive time and takes up 
storage which could be used for other purposes. By building an 
architected document index with associated pointers in turn 
associated with each indexable element, any desired element of 
the document can be readily addressed by many different users.

Abstract: A high contrast display is provided by illuminating a 
polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) display panel 
through opposite edges thereof. Light scattered out the 
front of the panel from non-activated areas of the PDLC in 
which the refractive indices of the liquid crystal and

transmission mode display, the rear of the panel is black­
ened so that activated areas of the PDLC in which the 
refractive indices of the materials are matched transmit 
edge-illuminated and ambient light and appear black. For 
a reflection mode display usable in combination with 
projection optics, the rear of the panel is provided with 
a mirror surface, and ambient light is prevented from

Patent EP-0397267-A3 (EP)
IPC: A23P1/08
Filed: 1990-05-07
Abstract: A method for forming a moving, continuous bed which is composed of 
granular and/or pulverulent flowable material and which is of constant 
thickness provides an improved uniformity of the bed by collecting 
material from a first moving bed so as to form a buffer stock, and by 
subsequently delivering material from the stock in a regular fashion so 
as to form a second moving bed which is continuous.  
     An apparatus for carrying out this method comprises a belt capable 
of being passed through by said material. The material can be moved with 
the belt over a guide plate situated beneath the belt. In order to 
prevent too little material being present locally during brief 
interruptions in the supply of the flowable material and in order to 
prevent the material being compressed and pulverized in the event of an 
excessively large supply, a buffer is provided for the material, the 
discharge opening of which buffer is situated near and above the guide 
plate. The buffer has an overflow. The material is thus fed via the 
buffer onto the belt. Provided the buffer remains filled, it is capable 
of compensating automatically for fluctuations in the material supply.

Title: Circuitry and method for providing an output signal indicative of the time delay between two asynchronous clock signals
IPC: G06F7/02
Filed: 1990-03-23
Abstract: In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a 
first-in, first-out (FIFO) memory includes flag generation 
circuitry which utilizes a write clock counter and a read 
clock counter to provide the number of write clock pulses 
received. since the previous write reset signal and the number 
of read clock pulses received by the FIFO since the previous 
read reset signal. A subtractor circuit subtracts the number 
of read clock pulses from the number of write clock pulses, 
and this difference is compared in a comparator circuit to 
determine if the difference is greater than a preset value. 
This determination provides the information as to the relative 
fullness of the FIFO.
