Patent AU-540979-B2 (AU)
Title: Winding and reeling device
Inventor: BURTSCHER PAUL
IPC: B65H75/48
Filed: 1980-07-01
Granted: 1984-12-13
Abstract: A winding and reeling device for an elongated, flexible member. A reel is connected to the outer end of a spiral spring. The outer end of the spiral spring is rigidly connected to the reel, whereby a gear is connected between the outer and the inner end of the spiral spring such that upon rotation of the outer end of the spiral spring around its center axis the inner end of the spiral spring rotates around the same axis, however at a slower rotational speed. The reel has smooth surfaces and comprises at no place any gear teeth. A rotation of the reel causes the rotation of the gear wheels of the gear, whereby two gear wheels having a different number of teeth are rigidly connected to each other and arranged on a common shaft. A further shaft is provided which carries two further gear wheels, whereby one gear wheel is rigidly connected to the further shaft and the other gear wheel is freely rotatable on said further shaft. The gear is a speed reduction gear, whereby its input end is driven by the reel and its output end drives the inner end of the spiral spring. Accordingly, the space occupied by the spiral spring is smaller than hitherto possible, and a space saving of the entire device is achieved. The device is suitable for reeling weblike members such as measuring tapes or leashes for dogs and also for reeling electrical cables such as for instance used in vacuum cleaners.

Title: Detachment of tires from molds
Inventor: GREENWOOD ALAN
IPC: B29K21/00
Filed: 1990-08-22
Granted: 1992-09-24
Abstract: Detaching a cured tire from mold sections (12, 14) of a tire mold (10) during opening of the mold by communicating air under pressure into the space between the mold sections (12, 14) and confining the air in this space with a sleeve member (32) supported on the upper mold section (12) and slidably urged into sealing engagement with the lower mold section (14). Air under pressure is then communicated from the space between the mold sections to the spaces between the cured tire surface and the molding surfaces of the upper and lower mold sections to detach the tire. Sealing rings (50, 60) on the sleeve (32) and on the upper mold section (12) prevent leakage of the air under pressure from the space between the mold section. Spring means (38) between the upper mold section (12) and the sleeve member (32) provide extension of the sleeve member (32) into sealing engagement with the lower mold section (14).

Title: A still picture display apparatus and external memory unit
Inventor: NAKAGAWA KATSUYA
IPC: G09G5/02
Filed: 1991-02-01
Granted: 1994-04-28
Abstract: A still picture display device has a VRAM and a character ROM. To the VRAM, a first coordinate address is assigned in correspondence with the displaying position of a luster scanning type display, a character code representing the character to be displayed being stored in the first coordinate address. The character ROM is divided into a plural of storing areas, in each of which at the address specified by the above mentioned character code the dot data of the character is stored. A second coordinate address is assigned to an expansion RAM too in the same manner as that of the VRAM, and modifying data (a character modification data and/or a color modification data) corresponding to the character code stored in the VRAM is stored at the second coordinate address. The modification data is read out from the expansion RAM to be loaded in a register and then given as the superordinate address of the character ROM to specify one of the storing areas. The character code read out from the VRAM is given as the subordinate address of the character ROM. Thus, the dot data corresponding to the character code is read out from the character ROM.

Title: An improved process for the colorimetric determination of the cyanide concentration of aqueous solutions
Inventor: BILGER EDGAR DR
IPC: G01N33/18
Filed: 1987-11-26
Granted: 1990-03-29
Abstract: According to the invention, cyanide concentrations of approximately 0.001 to 5 mg cyanide/1 are colorimetrically determined in a continuous manner by means of the known cyanidepicric acid color reaction. The solution containing free cyanide and/or cyanide releasable from cyanocomplexes is converted in a system enclosed in a gas-tight manner in the presence of chelate complexing agents, picric acid and alkaline buffer systems in 1-60 minutes at 50 DEG -120 DEG C. to the color complex and the absorbency is measured spectrophotometrically. The method avoids the extraction step which was previously necessary under 0.2 mg CN/1, avoids errors due to HCN gas evolution losses, is easy to manage, not prone to trouble and suitable for the continuous monitoring of waste-water streams or for controlling cyanide detoxification methods.

Title: A:D converter system with two clocking signals - uses first signal to actuate track scanners and second signal to enter outputs in memory
IPC: H03M1/00
Filed: 1972-01-26
Abstract: The A/D converter serially outputs data coded onto a disc, cylinder etc. and has a clock generator producing two displaced timing sequences. The scanning elements for the tracks are released by the retarded timing sequence whilst the signals from these scanning elements are entered in a 1-bit memory using the advanced timing sequence.

Title: Table knives made by die forging - have grooved blanks for separation after completion of blades
IPC: B21H7/10
Filed: 1972-06-28
Abstract: The table knife blades are made in pairs from blanks by forging. The knife blades are held together at the ends where the handle sill be subsequently fitted. The manufacturing process is simplified by completing the blades before separation into individual blades. This process prevents damage to the already fitted handle during the final stages of knife manufacture. The knife blades are die forged or rolled, cut to profile, hardened and ground. The finished knife blades are readily separated at the groove cut into the joining section. The finished blades are held together by their end where a handle is later fitted.

Patent DE-2539224-B2 (DE)
IPC: G04G5/00
Filed: 1975-09-03
Abstract: The time information of a time measuring instrument (1) is corrected by its approach to the transmitter (3). During the correction operation, a clock pulse generator (9) arranged in the time measuring instrument transmits its time pulses B to a circuit (8), which stores the correction signals in series, and to a counter (13). The counter receives the correction signals in parallel from the storage circuit. This produces a simplified circuit for correcting the time information, which is operationally convenient and presents no problems. <IMAGE>

Patent JP-4402758-B2 (JP)
IPC: C08B30/00
Filed: 1999-02-02
Granted: 2010-01-20
Abstract: A directly compressible starch consisting in an intense white free-flowing powder showing both excellent compression profile and extremely good disintegration properties. This starch is especially designed to be used as a binder in direct compression processes where it yields very hard white tablets at relatively low compression forces. Tablets resulting from the compression of the above mentioned starch disintegrate in an aqueous medium at a very high speed and they additionally exhibit low friability pattern. This free-flowing starch also brings advantages when used as filler and binder in the filling of some hard gelatine capsules especially for these which are filled by pre-compression of the ingredients. This starch is characterised by regular and smooth partially swollen granules which can be either birefringent or non-birefringent. It can be prepared by spray-drying of a partially cooked starch.

Granted: 2003-01-14
Abstract: Disclosed is a system for collecting and displaying statistical data for a plurality of local area networks (LANs). The data is collected in several remote nodes, each of which is attached to a local area network. The data is obtained by using a LAN driver that intercepts all records on the LAN. The records are sent to a collector process where statistics are accumulated into a shared memory area and then transferred to an archiver process in a management node. The archiver process writes the statistics to a history file while compressing older data to prevent the file from growing too large. The data is then displayed while allowing the user of the system to dynamically select the point in time of the data being displayed, the range of dates and times of the data being displayed as well as the resolution of the graphical screen display.
