Filed: 1994-06-30
Abstract: This device is a piece of apparatus which allows the user to execute circumferences with large radii, including radii longer than the apparatus itself, without the need for a support at the centre of curvature. It is capable of making an arc of circumference with a radius of several metres on a small sheet of paper (A4 for example) without the need for any support outside the area of the paper. 
     It is made up fundamentally of two knurled wheels (1 and 2) linked by an axis (4) which act as moveable supports for a third point consisting of a ball (3) which is able to move in all directions. As it moves the apparatus pulls along a pencil, pen or saw to draw or cut the circumference. 
     The radius of the circumference can be varied either by moving the bracket (5) for the pencil, pen or saw along a graduated scale (6) attached to the body of the device (7) or, for greater differences, by moving the wheels closer together or further apart. The device may also have groups of several wheels on the same axis which can be moved to allow a greater range of radii to be obtained.

Title: Textiles microcrepes pour bandes de platrage orthopediques
Inventor: SCHOLZ MATTHEW T
IPC: A61F13/04
Filed: 1994-01-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne un article constitué d'une bande de tissu préalablement microcrêpée enduite d'une couche de résine durcissable. L'invention porte également sur un procédé qui consiste à microcrêper ou comprimer une bande de tissu de manière à lui conférer des propriétés d'étirabilité et une aptitude à épouser les formes tout en minimisant les forces de rétablissement. Les textiles adaptés au microcrêpage sont des textiles contenant des fibres pouvant être comprimées ou 'crêpées' mécaniquement et stabilisées ou recuites sous une forme crêpée, c'est-à-dire déformée. Ledit article peut se présenter sous forme de bandage orthopédique et peut éventuellement contenir une pluralité de charges à microfibres dispersées dans la résine. L'incorporation de charges à microfibres dans le matériau de plâtrage selon l'invention augmente considérablement la résistance du matériau durci, en particulier lorsque le tissu utilisé n'est pas en fibres de verre tout en ne modifiant pas les propriétés de maniabilité de la bande de plâtre non durcie.

Abstract: A rotary pump (10) is disclosed of the type including a rotating cylinder block (25) defining a plurality of cylinders (27), each defining an imaginary axis (a), which are uniformly spaced about an axis of rotation (A) of the cylinder block. A piston (29) is disposed for reciprocation within each cylinder (27) as the cylinder block rotates. The housing defines a fluid inlet (43) and a fluid outlet (45). In open communication with each cylinder (27) is a cylinder port (47), disposed for serial communication with the fluid inlet and fluid outlet as the cylinder block (25) rotates. Each cylinder port (47) defines a leading edge (L) which are disposed randomly relative to their respective imaginary axis (a). As a result, the timing of communication between the leading edges of the cylinder ports (47) and the fluid inlet and fluid outlet comprise a non-repetitive pattern, thus substantially reducing the sound level at the second fundamental frequency of the piston frequency, also substantially improving the quality of the sound during operation of the pump.

Abstract: A computer system has compact instructions avoiding the need for redundant bit locations underlying simple decoding of instructions. The computer system has logic circuitry which is arranged to respond to an instruction set comprising a plurality of selectable instructions of different bit lengths. Each instruction is based on a format of predetermined bit length and a predetermined sequence of instruction fields each of a respective predetermined bit length. Some instructions omit a selected one of the fields and include an identifier of less bit length than the omitted field to indicate which field is omitted. Thus the bit length of the instruction is compressed. 
     There is also described a method of compressing instruction bit lengths, a method of generating instructions for use in a computer system and a method for operating a computer.

Abstract: In a network layer (1), each node (2) has a modulator (3) and a detector (5) interconnected by a current gain circuit. The modulator (3) is of the type such that reflectivity decreases with increasing illumination of the detector (5). Input light impinges on the modulator (3) and reflected light provides the layer output and lateral inhibition signals to neighbouring nodes. Therefore, as lateral inhibition increases the output signal decreases.
