Abstract: A packaging machine for delicate rod-shaped objects, especially cigarettes, comprises a feeder (1) that takes a succession of ordered groups of cigarettes (S) to a station (A) that feeds them to a unit (30) that transfers said ordered groups one after the other into a transfer station (T), in which each of them is transferred, by pusher means (13, 16) and together with a wrapping sheet (F), into an empty cigarette carrying socket (118) in a folding drum (18). According to the invention, the transfer unit (30) is constructed in such a way that the individual groups of cigarettes (S) are carried from the feeding station (A) to the transfer station (T) following a straight path (X) of predetermined length along a stationary conveying surface (4) which is in a predetermined position and which has an inlet end at the feeding station (A) and an outlet end at the transfer station (T).

Abstract: The invention relates to a dipole ring magnet for use in magnetron sputtering apparatus or magnetron etching apparatus to produce a uniform magnetic field. Essentially the dipole ring magnet is an assembly of a plurality of pillar-like, anisotropic magnet segments in a circumferential arrangement. Each of the pillar-like magnet segments is magnetized in a direction normal to its longitudinal axis, and in assembling the ring magnet the magnet segments are differently oriented such that a magnetic field in the direction of a diameter of the ring is produced inside the ring magnet. To improve the uniformity of the magnetic field, particularly in respect of a component normal to the longitudinal axis of the ring magnet, each pillar-like segment is devoid of a lengthwise middle part to provide a vacant space in place of the millde part, and the length of the vacant space is regulated according to the position of the segment in the ring magnet.

Abstract: A reclosable chewing gum packet, and a blank for making that packet. The packet (30) includes a multitude of side panels (16a-16e) and a tear strip (14) attached to and transversely extending across each of those side panels. The tear strip is cut through, adjacent a first end thereof, to separate the tear strip into first and second sections (14a,14b). The first section of the tear strip is torn away from the packet to form a lateral tear line (34), separating the packet into a cover (36) and a body (40). When this is done, the transverse cut (42) through the tear strip prevents the first section of the tear strip from tearing the second section of the tear strip away from the packet. That second section of the tear strip remains attached to the packet and forms a flexible hinge (44) connecting the cover of the packet to the body thereof.

Abstract: A system for playing card games remotely includes both a multimedia communication system that allows players located remotely from each other to see and hear each other, and a "card toaster" and associated image recognition system at each game site which receives and manages a physical deck of cards at every site at which the game is being played. The toaster has the capability of (1) reading cards, for example, by scanning them, (2) finding particular cards, and, if necessary, sorting them, and (3) distributing cards, such as by dealing them. The system enables the players to deal and then play a game, such as the game of bridge, in a manner which closely approximates the manner in which a game is played when all players are co-located. Thus, once play is started, the image recognition system reads the cards played on a table at any site, and transmits information regarding those cards to the other sites. At the other sites, the card toaster is signaled and arranged to distribute the same cards, face up on the table.

Abstract: An apparatus and technique for providing isolation for a signal source utilizing two or more modulators is described. In particular, the apparatus generates a timed sequence of "open gates" that are synchronized to the data signal which permit transmission in a forward direction, and which attenuate a reverse direction signal. Another embodiment attenuates primarily reflected light signals by utilizing a passive waveguide and a modulator. The passive waveguide provides a propagation delay such that signals reflected from its end facet are attenuated by the modulator. The apparatus is suitable for use as an isolator for a light source in a high-speed optical fiber data transmission system.

Abstract: A polishing apparatus is provided which can effect surface-based polishing of a wafer without causing the wafer to produce an undulation or peripheral protrusion. A sheetlike polishing member 5 constructedby superposing a foam sheet 2 containing minute closed cells in a web of chloroprene rubber and a velour type non-woven fabric (polishing cloth 3) is attached fast to the surface of a polishing table 1. The polishing member is capable of polishing a given wafer while maintaining the uniformity of thickness of the wafer or an oxide film formed on the surface of the wafer because, during the application of pressure by a pressing member 14, the polishing pressure is uniformly distributed throughout the entire rear surface of the wafer and the polishing member is bent in conformity with the global rises and falls in the wafer surface.
