Patent JP-2868563-B2 (JP)
IPC: B23D27/00
Filed: 1990-01-11
Granted: 1999-03-10
Abstract: The object of the present invention is a punching and nibbling machine provided with a device for automatically changing a pair of tools, of which one is a stationary die (7), and the other is a movable punch (8), which when set in working position, are both coupled with the respective die or punch holding unit (3, 4) on the common, vertical operative axis (Y) of the punching and nibbling machine, characterized in that this tool changing device comprises two main magazines (5, 6), respectively for a set of dies (7), and for a matching set of punches (8). The said magazines (5, 6) are each provided with conveyor means (9, 10; 11, 12) for carrying the tools (7, 8) and for bringing the selected pair of tools (7, 8) into working position, in which their axis (X) is caused to coincide with the operative axis (Y) of the machine. The said conveyor means (9, 10; 11, 12) are so provided that the tools (7, 8) are moved along a closed path, with their axes being substantially held in a plane passing through the operative axis (Y) of the punching and nibbling machine, and preferably lying across the machine main frame. The said conveyor means (9, 10; 11, 12) are so designed that the tools (7, 8) are not upturned while they are being conveyed, so that no means are necessary for clamping each tool to the respective cartridge (14), and a remarkably simplified construction of the magazines is thus attained.

Title: Charge maintenance system for lead-acid battery
Inventor: CRASS MATTHEW M
IPC: H02J7/00
Filed: 2000-11-30
Granted: 2003-10-23
Abstract: A charge maintenance system for a lead-acid battery includes a charger, a voltage monitor, and a load/switch series combination, all connectable in parallel across the battery terminals, the switch and the charger being under control of a microprocessor. The battery is initially loaded for a predetermined time period, or until the battery voltage drops below an absolute minimum reference level during a loading cycle, and the system stores the lowest battery terminal voltage occurring during the loading cycle. After a predetermined delay following the loading cycle the charger is activated to charge the battery until it reaches a maximum charge level. Then, if the stored lowest battery voltage level is below a predetermined reference level, the loading/charging routine is repeated, otherwise it is not and the battery is considered good. If the stored lowest battery voltage level remains below the threshold for ten consecutive loading cycles, the system indicates that the battery failed the test but could be subject to retest. If the stored lowest battery voltage level is below an absolute minimum reference voltage level after three consecutive loading cycles, the system indicates that the battery is bad and should be discarded.

Patent AU-602423-B2 (AU)
Title: Biological sensors
Inventor: FINLAN MARTIN FRANCIS
IPC: G01N21/55
Filed: 1988-08-19
Granted: 1990-10-11
Abstract: A sensor using the principle of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to monitor the progress of the reaction between a sample (not shown) and a sensitive layer 20 (for example an antibody layer). The layer 20 is applied to the rear surface of a metallic film 19 formed on the surface of an optically transmissive component 28 in the form of a hemicylindrical lens 11 and slide 16. Collimated light from a source (not shown) is applied via a lens 2 which focusses the incoming beam 1 to a focus at point 3 to form a fan-shaped spread of light incident at point 3. The light is internally reflected at point 3, and emerges from the component 28 to be applied to a detector array 18 which latter is electronically scanned. The angle of incidence of the light at the point 3 is such as to span that angle which gives rise to surface plasmon resonance, together with a range of angles thereabout so that the progress of the resonant condition, as the reaction between the sample and the sensitive layer proceeds, can be monitored.

Abstract: Conventionally, substantially rigid parts such as panels and the like, are joined by mechanical fitments or couplers which not only require tools to asemble and disassemble but also create concentrated stress points at the junctions where the fitments or couplers are located. The present device utilizes hook and loop coupling material to detachably secure the parts together and incorporate mechanical location and aligning means between the two parts just prior to the engagement of the hook and loop fastener portions with one another thus facilitating the accurate assembly of the parts. Although designed primarily for use in various types of knock-down furniture and the like, it can of course be adapted for use with other substantially rigid parts.

Title: A beverage package
Inventor: FORAGE ALAN JAMES
IPC: B65D90/44
Filed: 1993-11-01
Granted: 1996-02-01
Abstract: A beverage package has a sealed container (1) containing beer (11) having gas in solution and forming a headspace (16) containing gas at pressure greater than atmospheric. A hollow insert (7) is located in the container and is responsive to a pressure differential developed on opening the top (5) of the container to inject beer and/or gas therefrom with the beer (11) to liberate gas (17) from solution and form froth in the headspace (16).   A baffle plate (12) on the insert (7) restrains the liberation of gas (17) to a minor proportion of the volume of beer (11) so that when the beer is poured into a glass, gas can evolve naturally from the beer to produce "sparkle". As an alternative to the beer and/or gas injection bubble initiation, gas from solution in the minor proportion of the volume of beer may be liberated by contact of that beer with a bubble initiating material. <IMAGE>
