Inventor: BEBB RICHARD HODSON
IPC: B60D1/00
Filed: 2000-12-19
Abstract: A mobile platform assembly (1) has a platform (4), a side
edge (5) of which is provided with a pivotally mounted connecting
member (17). A side edge (7) of the platform is provided with an
integral downwardly open channel (45). The connecting member (17)
can pivot to project from the side (5) of the platform (2) and two
similar platforms can be ganged together for unified mobility by
the connecting member (17) of one platform assembly being
longitudinally received within the channel (45) on the side edge
(7) of the second pallet assembly for the side edges (5 and 7) on
the respective two assemblies to be in side-by-side, abutting
relationship. 
     If the pallet assembly is used as an independent unit, the
connecting member (17) can be pivoted into a recess (21) in the
side edge (5) to be unobtrusive on the platform (2) so that two
independent platforms can be parked in side-by-side relationship
with their respective side edges (5 and 7) in abutment and so that
the decks (2) of the platform assemblies occupy substantially the
same storage space as when the assemblies are connected together. 
     The connecting member (17) may be biassed into the recess
(21). Guide surfaces can be provided on the platform (4) which
react with the connecting member (17) to automatically pivot the
connecting member for connection to an adjacent platform as the two
platforms are manoeuvred for connection.

Abstract: In a high intensity discharge lamp, at least one of an arc bend amount
and an apparent width of arc is controlled by a simple configuration at low
cost. A high intensity discharge lamp system 110 has a high intensity
discharge lamp 111 and an operating circuit 113 for driving the high
intensity discharge lamp 111. In the high intensity discharge lamp 111, a
rare gas and a filling material 136 containing a metal halide as a light
generating substance are enclosed in the arc tube 121 provided with a pair
of electrodes 122a and 122b. The lamp system is disposed such that the
line connecting the electrodes 122a and 122b is horizontal, and by applying
a magnetic field having a vertical magnetic flux thereto and by varying the
frequency of alternating current for driving the high intensity discharge
lamp 111, at least one of an arc bend amount and an apparent width of arc
can be easily controlled.

Abstract: It is taken advantage of the possibility to locate a wireless
telecommunications device (6) when being active inside a cellular
telecommunications system (1) i.e. in which cell (2) it can just be
found. Moreover, to each different cell covered each one by a base
station (3) is affected a certain number of specific terminals. The
present invention is then based on an automatic transferring of a
process command activated by a user on his wireless telecommunications
device toward a terminal nearby in this same cell. This transfer
transits via a PBX (4) which administers all the base stations of that
cellular telecommunications system and which is connected possibly via a
computer (7) to a network (5) made of those terminals. The PBX will
forward that process command with the supplementary information telling
in which cell of the cellular telecommunications system this process
command was received. With that information, the computer which
administers all the terminals of the network, will be able to transfer
that process command to a terminal located in the same cell as the
wireless telecommunications device at the time that process command was
generated on it and on which this process command like a print or a view
will be performed.

Abstract: A transmission method uses multiple kinds of control codes to be
exchanged on a serial transmission path between a sender side and a
receiver side, and each of the multiple kinds of control codes has bits
smaller in number than a predetermined fixed length. The transmission
method includes the steps of inspecting the received bit string in groups of
bits of the number of the control code, and thereby determining whether
one of the multiple kinds of control codes is present in the serial signal
received on the serial transmission path or not, selecting the control code to
be sent based on a result of the determination in the determining step,
sending, onto the serial transmission path, a bit string containing at least
the control code to be sent based on the result of the determination in the
determining step, and receiving the data code by inspecting the received
bit string in groups of bits of the fixed length in response to the detection of
the control code indicating the start of transmission of the data from the
opposite side in the determining step.

Abstract: The technique of the present invention extracts a
plurality of blocks from a master image, processes image
data corresponding to each block by orthogonal transform,
compares coefficients of adjoining blocks with each other,
and modifies the order of magnitude of the coefficients,
based on bit information to be embedded. The bit
information to be embedded is constructed as a basic pattern,
which is generated, for example, by the density pattern
method. The basic pattern is embedded in image data
iteratively. The process of iteratively embedding the
basic pattern enhances the resistance against various
attacks. The technique of embedding a digital watermark
in a transformed master image may not require
labor-consuming management to keep master images closed
to the public.
