Title: Method and system for optimizing dialysis clearance
Inventor: KESHAVIAH PRAKASH R
IPC: A61M1/16
Filed: 1995-04-18
Granted: 1998-11-05
Abstract: A system and method using same are provided for determining the optimum operating conditions of a dialysis process that yields the highest whole body dialysis clearance. The system varies a parameter that effects dialysis efficiency during part of a dialysis run. The system then measures a metabolite concentration in an outflow dialysate. The system develops a metabolite concentration profile as a function of the varied parameter. Based on these measurements, the system correlates the metabolite concentration measurements to determine the optimum parameter setting that yields the maximum metabolite concentration.

Title: Device for atomizing of active substances
Inventor: WEICK HEINZ HERMANN
IPC: A61L9/12
Filed: 1988-11-17
Granted: 1990-08-09
Abstract: The devices serves for the atomizing of active substances of a paramedicinal of a cosmetic nature. It consists of a plate-form flat hollow body (1, 2) with two wide-side walls (1b, 1b') of which at least one has a zone designed porous, and with a slide-type cover element (5), arranged to be pushed along with sliding on the latter. To seal the device against loss of active substance, the hollow body is provided with a circumferential push-in sealing groove (2b), open toward the cover element, and widening toward the outside. The cover element is provided, for the purpose of its engagement with a rim section in this push-in sealing groove, in its closed position, on the outside of this rim section, with a tapering (5b), corresponding to the push-in sealing groove. Moreover, the outer surfaces of the hollow body, in the zone of the push-in sealing groove and the inner surface of the cover element, at least in the zone of its rim section, are designed to lie tightly together in the closed position. The device may be used, both for an active atomization, for example, of paramedicinal active substances (use as a mouth and nose inhaler), and also for a passive atomization, for example of perfume (as a perfume distributor, either in the pockets of garments or as a socket device).

Title: Method and apparatus for modifications made to a video signal to inhibit the making of acceptable videotape recordings
Inventor: RYAN JOHN O
IPC: H04N5/91
Filed: 1997-05-07
Granted: 1999-05-06
Abstract: A video signal is modified so that a television/receiver still produces a normal picture from the modified signal, whereas videotape recording of this signal produces generally unacceptable pictures. Videotape recorders have an automatic gain control circuit (Fig. 2) which measures the sync pulse level in a video signal and develops a gain control correction signal for keeping the video applied to an FM modulator in the videotape recording system at a fixed predetermined level. A portion of the back porch intervals following the trailing edges of a substantial number of sync pulses are significantly raised and lowered to improve the playability of the original signal without reducing the effectiveness of the copy protection of the copied signal. This is achieved most simply by adding pulses to selected lines of the video signal during the back porch interval, which pulses significantly raise or lower the voltage amplitude during the blanking interval so to provide a signal where the average value is approximately equal to the blanking interval. The sync level and the sync duration on the selected lines are also reduced to enhance the effectiveness of the process.

Title: Method and system of directing an antenna in a two-way satellite system
Inventor: KELLY FRANK
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2001-03-16
Granted: 2002-08-29
Abstract: A system for directing an antenna for transmission over a two-way satellite network is disclosed. A transceiver is coupled to the antenna; the transceiver transmits and receives signals over the two-way satellite network. A user terminal is coupled to the transceiver and executes an antenna pointing program. The program instructs a user to initially point the antenna to a beacon satellite using predefined pointing values based upon the location of the antenna. The program receives new antenna pointing parameters that are downloaded from a hub over a temporary channel that is established via the beacon satellite. The program displays the new antenna pointing parameters and instructs the user to selectively re-point the antenna based upon the downloaded new antenna pointing parameters.

Date Jun. 23, 1994A process and a device for coating the surface of strip material, especially non-ferrous metal and steel strip, with a metal coating, wherein the material is conducted without reversal of direction through a container holding the molten coating material. The container has a passage duct below the level of the melting bath, in which induction currents are induced by an electromagnetic travelling field and produce, in interaction with the electromagnetic travelling field, an electromagnetic force for restraining the coating material. In order to stabilize the melt in the passage duct as well as in the container, and in order to attain, to a large extent, a counterbalance between hydrostatic and electromagnetic forces, a constant direct or alternating current field is directed opposite to the travelling field in the area near the container, damping the movement in the coating material. For this purpose, an additional iron core, which has coils running parallel to the inductor coils and can be subjected to direct or alternating current, is arranged above each inductor on both sides of the passage duct.

IPC: B31B50/22
Filed: 1994-05-10
Granted: 1994-10-27
Abstract: Box blank-forming apparatus (60) is provided which includes a feeder assembly (62) and a scoring/slotting assembly (64) each provided with adjustment structure (62a, 64a) to facilitate makeready adjustment of the apparatus (60) between production runs. The feeder assembly (62) preferably includes a reciprocal pusher element (170) operable to successively engage sheets (30) to be formed into box blanks (36). The element (170) is supported by a pair of elongated, threaded, axially rotatable, fore and aft translatable positioning screws (146, 148), so that upon rotation of the screws (146, 148), a reference position of the pusher element (170) may be varied. Adjustment of the assembly (64) is accomplished by means of compensators (292, 294) which are respectively coupled to associated slotter wheel and scoring wheel shafts (288, 286). Operation of the slotter wheel shaft compensator (294) serves to adjust the circumferential positions of the fixed slotter knives (358), whereas operation of the scoring shaft compensator (292) varies the position of the adjustable knives (360) through the medium of transfer gears (384). Servo-sensors (438-442, 446-448 and 270) are used to continuously monitor the lateral and circumferential positions of the scoring/slotting stations (296-304) and a reference position of the pusher element (172), so that precise makeready adjustments can be accomplished. <IMAGE>

Title: Connection system for connecting equipment to underwater cables
Inventor: OLIVIER ANDRE W
IPC: B63B21/66
Filed: 2000-06-20
Granted: 2004-04-29
Abstract: A connection system for connecting external devices to specified locations on a marine seismic streamer. Inner collars are clamped to the cable at specified locations along its length. Each inner collar forms a circular race encircling the cable. A cuff attached to an external device is in the form of a C-shaped cylindrical ring with a circular inner surface. A gap in the ring interrupts the inner surface. A throat is formed in the ring by the gap, which extends the full length of the cuff across the ends of the C. The spacing between the ends of the C across the throat defines the width of the gap. The width of the gap is slightly larger than the diameter of the cable so that the cuff can be slipped over the cable through the throat. The width of the gap is smaller than the diameter of the circular race so that, when the cuff is slid into position on the race, the cuff cannot be removed radially from the race. The inner surface of the cuff rides on the race to allow the cable to rotate inside the cuff. The race can include a circumferential groove for retaining a retractable pin extending from the external device to snap the device in place and a raised circumferential shoulder to further restrain the cuff and attached device from sliding along the cable.
