Abstract: In a measuring device (10) in the form of a nipple of a baby's comforter, a sensor (16) is embedded in a nipple body (11). Conductors (17) for connection of the sensor (16) to an electronic measuring circuit is also embedded in the nipple body material and are tortuously shaped. Each of the conductors is constituted by a twin helically wound metal wire, and the sensor (16) is constituted by a wafer thermistor. The nipple body (11) is fixed in a central hole of a flange member (40) also constituting a housing of the electronic measuring equipment which is arranged on a printed circuit (47) also supporting a turn on contact (46) which is adapted to be brought into contact with a battery (23) and an LCD-display for displaying the measured maximum temperature. By embedding the sensor and the tortuously shaped conductors in the nipple body, a baby's comforter is provided which has a homogeneous body without lumps or other abnormalities, and the tortuous shape allows the conductor means to adapt itself to deformation of the nipple body, even when it is exposed to strong masticatory or sucking stresses.

Abstract: A pipe joint seal comprises an insert (10) adapted to be mounted around the joint and the pipe sections adjacent thereto and having in its inner side dovetailed grooves (11) or the like which are filled with a plastic sealing compound. The insert (10) can be clamped around the pipes and the joint by means of a sheet-metal union piece (21) having bent edges (22) to form a channel within which said insert (10) is mounted. When the insert (10) is tightened around the pipes, the sealing compound urges the insert portions defining the dovetailed grooves (11) tightly against the pipes so that a satisfactory seal is obtained also on uneven pipe surfaces. By designing one bent longitudinal edge (22) of the union piece (21) with a height greater than that of said insert, and by causing said bent edge to engage with a groove in one of said pipes, the seal can be simply and conveniently held in nondisplaceable engagement with said pipe, while the other pipe is displaceable in the seal.

Title: Distress radiolocation method and system
IPC: G01S5/14
Filed: 1984-08-06
Granted: 1990-02-14
Abstract: A dedicated distress radiolocation system combines direction-finding techniques with calculations based on signal strength to precisely locate a distress transmission and effect rescue of the person or property in distress. The system is capable of locating a distress transmission solely on the basis of a short duration pulse; however, for identification purposes and for communication reliability a series of pulses is transmitted. The system includes distress transmitters (10), a plurality of slave repeater units (20) at known locations to receive the distress transmission and report their signal strength to a central station (30), a central station (30) to calculate the distress transmitter's location based on the measured signal strengths and the known locations of the repeater units and to despatch a rescue unit (40) and rescue units (40) equipped with direction-finding equipment to approach the distress transmitter. Most actions of the system are undertaken automatically.

Abstract: A fiber optic frequency shifter includes an optical fiber (24) having two modes of propagation, each with a different propagation velocity, and a coupler for applying time varying stress to the fiber at first and second locations on the fiber, with a predetermined phase relationship between the stress at the two locations. The coupler may include a plurality of discrete coupling elements, such as ridges (84, 86) or driving electrodes (163, 164, 165, 166) and a driver to drive the coupling elements in accordance with driving signals having the predetermined phase difference, or the coupler may include an acoustic wave generator (118, 120, 122) coupled to the fiber (114) for applying to the fiber an actual travelling acoustic wave. With the discrete distributed coupling elements, the frequency of the driving signals and the phase relationship between the driving signals is such as to create a simulated travelling acoustic wave in the fiber (24). The real or apparent travelling acoustic wave in the fiber causes light propagating through the fiber to be coupled from one of the fiber modes to another of the fiber modes, and to cause the coupled light to be frequency shifted relative to the initial light. The wavelength of the real or apparent acoustic wave is approximately equal to an integer multiple of the fiber beat length to cause constructive coupling of the frequency shifted light.

This circuit incorporates a shift register with five cells, a storage module having a first group of three storage cells able to store three bytes, a second group of three storage cells able to store three bytes, a two-bit flip-flop, a logic comparison circuit incorporating a first group of three byte comparators, a second group of three byte comparators, an article start code detector, and a comparison synthesis logic circuit connected to the six byte comparators, to the detector and to the flip-flop. This circuit supplies an opening or closing control signal applied to the control input of the memory. The microprocessor loads in an appropriate manner the storage cells with bytes defining a page to be selected and bytes defining a threshold, such that all the articles whose classification bytes exceed this threshold, bring about the appearance of the memory opening signal. The microprocessor checks after each data transmission cycle the state of the memory in order to raise or lower the threshold, or leave it unchanged.

Abstract: The impendance of an autoregulating heater is greatly increased by employing in one embodiment a return conductor in the form of a helix surrounded by and insulated from a magnetic conductor; the two conductors connected in series or as a transformer across an a.c. source whereby the current in the magnetic material is forced to follow a helical path. In a preferred embodiment, a multilayered coil is wrapped about and insulated from a magnetic sleeve disposed about a copper rod; the sleeve and rod forming the secondary of a transformer. The helical path of the current in the secondary plus the impedance transformation effect of the transformer greatly enhances the impedance of the load as presented to a current source. The winding is enclosed within another magnetic sleeve which provides another magnetic shield about the heater and if connected at one end to the inner magnetic layer increases the width to thickness ratio for purposes to be described.

Abstract: Disclosed is a digital ultrasonic instrument for measuring the corneal thickness (often referred to as a pachymeter) and for measuring the axial length of the eye (often referred to as a biometric ruler). A number representing corneal thickness or axial length is displayed digitally on a liquid crystal display. The pachymeter incorporates a 20 MHz solid phase piezoelectric transducer, a microprocessor, a gate array, a hybrid analog receiver circuit, a liquid crystal display and four batteries. When axial length is measured, the instrument operates as a biometric ruler, a 10 MHz transducer is used and the software in the microprocessor is modified. Ultrasonic echoes generated by the transducer and various interfaces in the eye are sampled at the rate of 40 MHz which results in equal or greater sensitivity, resolution and accuracy as compared to other pachymeters and biometric rulers currently available. The 40 MHz sample rate is accomplished by use of a grey code counter and a binary counter, each of which is sampled twice after an ultrasonic echo is detected. The two grey code samples are compared to determine a valid sample period. A counter value obtained during a valid sample period is recorded in a shift register and compared to subsequent counter values corresponding to subsequent ultrasonic echoes. The apparatus for correlating ultrasonic echoes with particular counter values assures that the counter will be sampled at a point in time when the counter is stable as opposed to being in a state of transition. The apparatus allows for a counter accuracy of 25 ns.
