Title: Head drum with diamond-like carbon protective layer
Inventor: CHOI KYE-CHUL
IPC: G11B15/61
Filed: 1998-11-05
Abstract: An aluminum head drum for use in a video cassette recorder is coated with a protective layer comprising diamond-like carbon. The protective layer of diamond-like carbon is obtained using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method and has a thickness ranging from 0.3m to 2.0m. The protective layer has a varying mechanical hardness, wherein the mechanical hardness has a maximum value at a region of the protective layer coming in contact with the aluminum head drum, decreases smoothly and continuously and reaches an minimum value at a region of the protective layer coming in contact with atmosphere. Micro-Vicker's hardness of the region of the protective layers coming in contact with a video tape is 1.5 - 2.0 times that of the magnetic substance constituting the video tape.

Title: Underwater excavation, dredging or backfill device
Inventor: VIGNA MARIO LUIGI
IPC: E02F3/92
Filed: 1999-04-12
Abstract: An underwater excavation/dredging/backfill device 1 uses a motive fluid 3 (ambient or supplied) generated by a pump or pumps mounted either on the device or remote from it (surface or subsea), to pass through a jetting system 2 and which in turn induces further ambient water/fluid 4a,4b to pass into one or more mixing chambers/diffuser's 6,7, each wider at the outlet than the inlet, resulting in a greater volume of water/fluid (motive and induced 5) being deployed from the mouth of the final mixing chamber/diffuser 7. This flow of motive and induced fluid 5 passing from the discharge outlet of the mixing chamber/diffuser 7 over the area to be excavated that creates the underwater excavation/dredging/backfill effect.

Title: Switched terminal for connection of charger
Inventor: TSUBATA KEISUKE
IPC: H02J7/00
Filed: 1999-07-07
Abstract: A watch or the like has a main body 1 and a conductive external terminal 2. An internal terminal 5 is connected to a battery 7 but is normally held away from terminal 2 by a coil spring 6 or leaf spring (201, figure 5). A charger tip 120 contains a magnet 3, so when it is brought into contact with the terminal 2, terminal 5 is also brought into contact with it and so the battery 7 can be charged. The terminal is air-tight and, due to the switching action, does not allow the battery 7 to be accidentally discharged when the charger is not present.

Title: Electric liquid heating vessels
Inventor: JOHNSTON SIMON RICHARD
IPC: H05B3/82
Filed: 1999-07-23
Abstract: An electric liquid heating vessel has a stainless steel planar base substsrate, with a heating element provided on its underside. The upper side of the base, which is exposed to liquid in use, is provided with a polished mirror surface finish by means of a mechanical or electropolishing process. Preferably the surface finish has a maximum <B>Ra</B> value of 0.1žm, and a low <B>Lo</B> value. The <B>Rsk</B> value is preferably positive or low negative (  &  0.2). In this way, the heater remains cooler in use as heat transfer from the heated base to liquid in the vessel is not impeded by the mirror surface. Scale deposition on the vessel base is diminished, and the propensity of the base to shed scale is increased.

Patent GB-191420508-A (GB)
IPC: F22G7/06
Abstract: 20,508. Robinson, J. G. Oct 3. Fire and smoke tube superheaters.-Relates to superheaters having looped tubes arranged in two groups on opposite sides of the longitudinal vertical central plane of the boiler and connected to divided headers fitted at the sides of the smoke-box, each looped tube taking into more than one smoke-tube. According to the present invention, the ends of the looped tubes are so bent and arranged that any one tube can be disconnected from the header and removed without disturbing or removing any other tube. Figs. 1 and 3 show an end sectional elevation and a sectional plane respectively of half the smoke-box of the boiler the other half being identical. The boiler tubes are shown disposed in horizontal rows, with the tubes in each row in vertical alinement with the tubes of adjacent rows. The divided headers are arranged vertically at the sides of the smoke-box and are secured in position by brackets 16, which extend all round the header and thus protect the cover-plates 8 from the gases. For giving access to these cover-plates the part 18 of the smoke-box wall is made removable. Each horizontal row of smoke-tubes on opposite sides of the central vertical plane of the boiler is shown fitted with two superheater elements, the ends of which are expanded in the headers. Instead of two elements, a single element may extend into the tubes. Those portions of the elements between the smoke-tubes and the headers are first carried across the tube-plate, in some cases opposite the spaces between the rows of smoketubes as shown at 23, then horizontally and parallel to the sides of the smoke-box. and are finally bent to enter the header at right-angles. The inlet and outlet ends of any one element lie in the same horizontal plane.

Patent HU-T71367-A (HU)
Title: Queue managing system and method
Inventor: KAMINSKY MARK E
IPC: H04M3/50
Filed: 1994-01-24
Abstract: In a queue management system for servicing of a number of clients representing different client types, a controlling queue queues clients in a predetermined order. A queue manager allocates and reallocates a number of processing queues, less than the number of client types, to match different ones of said client types. The queue manager then places successive ones of the clients in the controlling queue into a processing queue matching the client type if there is a matching processing queue and allocates or reallocates an empty or emptied processing queue to the client type if there is no matching processing queue but there is an empty processing queue. A server empties the processing queues in batches. In the environment of a telephone system the clients are messages and the client types are codings in the messages for various destinations. The queue manager dedicates each of a number of processing queues to one of the destinations in the controlling queue, accesses the top message in the controlling queue, places the messages in a processing queue matching the destination code of the message if there is a match, and dedicates an empty processing queue to the target destination if there is no matching processing queue but there is an empty processing queue.
