Title: Multi-point seat belt
Inventor: GO GIOK DJIEN
IPC: B60R22/18
Filed: 1998-11-10
Granted: 2005-08-02
Abstract: A multi-point seat-belt includes two shoulder-belt portions, a lap-belt portion, master release-button, belt-feeding device and multi-attachment points. Both shoulder-belt portions extend crosswise over the upper-part of the body of a passenger in an X-shape and the lap-belt portion restrains the lower-part thereof when a shoulder- and main latch-plate are plug-in connected to an upper and main buckle-assembly. Serving as transition-products multi-point seat-belts are defined by conventional three-point seat-belts and new parts.    A protective-rollover device ensures survival chance in rollover-accidents.      Comfort is enhanced by - a belt-feeding device, which, when activated, moves the first shoulder-belt portion to extend across over the upper-part thereof, - the master release-button, which, when depressed, releases all latch-plates and/or returns the belt-feeding device to the home position, - a radial-adjusting movement of the radial-adjustable tube preventing interference with the head with/without hat, and - adaptation to a small body proportion of a child.

Abstract: An air inlet valve assembly for a rotary scroll compressor is disclosed. The rotary scroll compressor includes stationary and orbiting scroll elements which are intermeshed and nested to form at least one spiraling compression pocket therebetween, a drive mechanism drives the orbiting scroll element in an orbit about the stationary scroll element, and an anti-rotation bearing device maintains the orbiting scroll element substantially non-rotational with respect to the stationary scroll element. The air inlet valve assembly supplies an uncompressed gas (e. g., ambient air) to the compression apparatus and prevents backward rotation of the orbiting scroll element when power to the drive mechanism is terminated. The air inlet valve assembly includes a valve piston positioned within an air intake channel leading to the suction region of the rotary scroll compressor, the valve piston having a first position blocking the air intake channel and a second position unblocking the air intake channel. A valve stem member is connected to a valve housing, the valve housing enclosed a valve cavity wherein the valve piston is located, the valve piston coacts with a valve seat formed on the valve housing, and stop surfaces are provided on the valve piston and the valve stem to limit movement of the valve piston toward the suction region of the rotary scroll compressor.

Title: System for simultaneously imaging vehicles and their license plates
Inventor: ALVES JAMES FRANCIS
IPC: G03B15/02
Filed: 2001-01-10
Granted: 2007-08-14
Abstract: A vehicle video imaging system comprises a white-light LED array for illuminating retro-reflective painted parts of a vehicle's license plate and a polarizing filter for illuminating any non-retro-reflective license plate paint and the vehicle itself. A video camera with a polarizing filter turned 90° relative to the one in front of the flash receives the illuminated image of the vehicle and its license plate. The retro-reflective paint of a license plate will return polarized light as it is received, so the white-light LED array will provide all the illumination needed by the camera. The polarizing filters will combine to block out most of the light from the flash that was returned still-polarized by the retro-reflective-paint license plate. All other surfaces that do not have retro-reflective paint will bounce-back and scatter the light from both the polarized flash and non- polarized light.

Inventor: ZIEBARTH MICHAEL S
IPC: B01J37/00
Filed: 2000-02-28
Granted: 2010-05-04
Abstract: A calalyst composition suitable for reacting hydrocarbons, e.g., conversion processes such as fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) of hydrocarbons, comprises attrition resistant particulate having a high level (30-85 %) of stabilized zeolites having a constraint index of 1 to 12. The stabilized zeolite is bound by a phosphorous compound, alumina and optional binders wherein the alumina added to make the catalyst is about 10 % by weight or less and the molar ratio of phosphorous (P205) to total alumina is sufficient to obtain an attrition index of about 20 or less. The composition can be used as a catalyst per se or as additive catalyst to a conventional catalyst and is especially suitable for enhancing yields of light olefins, and particularly ethylene, produced during conversion processes.

IPC: H04B10/07
Filed: 2001-09-27
Granted: 2009-06-23
Abstract: In an optical WDM network, each optical channel is modulated with a respective channel identity. Detectors, conveniently at multiplex ports of optical band filters, detect the channel identities of all of the optical channels in an optical signal at the respective points to produce respective channel lists. A network management system determines channel lists for through ports of the optical band filters, identifies matching pairs of channel lists to determine a topology of each node and to identify optical paths entering or leaving each node, and identifies matching pairs of channel lists for these paths to determine an internode topology of the network. The channel identity detector points can alternatively be at the optical paths entering or leaving each node.

Title: Device for gathering flat articles into stacks and for further processing the stacks
Inventor: HONEGGER WERNER
IPC: B65H39/06
Filed: 2002-04-23
Granted: 2009-06-02
Abstract: Flat articles are gathered on stack supports (2) being conveyed past feed points substantially continuously and one after the other. After the gathering operation, bottom edge zones (13) of the gathered articles are exposed for a further processing operation. The corresponding device comprises continuously conveyed stack supports (2) each with an inclined supporting surface (3) and a foot element (4) located in the bottom area of the supporting surface (3). The foot elements are actively connected with the supporting surfaces in such a manner, that they are capable of being pressed against the supporting surface and of being distanced from the supporting surface. In an exposure zone downstream of the gathering zone (1), stack support means (10) being conveyed in synchronism with the stack supports (2) and substantially in the same direction and control means are provided. The stack support means are arranged in such a manner, that at the entrance to the exposure zone (1) they are positioned immediately underneath the stack supports and that further downstream they move away from the stack supports (2) in a downwards direction. The control means act on the foot elements (4) of stack supports (2) conveyed through the exposure zone in such a manner, that these are distanced from the supporting surfaces (3) at the entrance to the exposure zone for letting the stacks slide down onto the stack support means, and that the stacks having slid down onto the stack support means (10) are clamped between the foot element and the supporting surface. The exposed edge zones (13) of the gathered articles can then be processed in a simple way and/or can be taken hold of by further conveying means. The device is simple and is capable of being adjusted to suit various applications.
