Patent EP-0182655-A3 (EP)
IPC: A45D40/04
Filed: 1985-11-19
Abstract: Recent improvements in cosmetics materials have includ­
ed the development of certain highly volatile binders for pow­
der colouring compositions, e.g. facial blushers etc.; these 
binders can be used to retain the composition in integral stick 
form, and have the added advantage of possessing high slip 
coefficients, thus aiding application of the cosmetic to the skin. 
However, being highly volatile, they tend to evaporate from the 
stick and even in the close confines of the conventional twist­
stick assembly (e.g. as hitherto used for lipsticks) this evapora­
tion would quite quickly result in disintegration of the stick. The 
invention concerns a holder assembly for a cosmetics stick in­
corporating such a binder and includes a base (3, 5) which is 
open at one end and which has relatively rotatable inner (5) and 
outer (3) tubes and which houses a stick holder cup (18) ar­
ranged to be axially movable by relative rotation of the tubes, 
and a cap (2) which fits over the open end of the base. Respec­
tive seals (31, 41) are provided to seal between the cap and the 
base on the one hand, and between the cup and the inner tube 
on the other hand so as to inhibit egress of vapour formed with­
in the assembly by evaporation of the binder.

Patent EP-0227203-A3 (EP)
IPC: B65D50/04
Filed: 1986-06-12
Abstract: A liquid-tight child-resistant package that includes a glass or 
plastic container (50) of the wide mouth type 
(i. e., with a container finish "T" 
dimension of at least 33 millimeters) and a complementary molded ther­
moplastic closure (10) that utilizes a 
separate disk-type liner (40). The closure (10) 
which, with the exception of the separate 
liner, is molded in one piece, has 
a multiple helical thread start (24), and 
each closure thread (24) has a vertically 
extending shoulder (24d) on its upper side. 
Each complementary container finish 
thread has a vertically extending shoulder 
that engages the corresponding 
shoulder on the closure, after the partial 
unscrewing of the closure (10), to 
prevent further unscrewing of the closure (10) 
until the closure (10) is vertically 
drepressed on the container finish (51), 
against the spring action of the closure 
liner (40), to separate the shoulder (24d) 
on the closure thread (24) from the shoulder on 
the container thread and to thereby permit 
continuation of the unscrewing 
of the closure (10) until it can be removed 
from the container (50). The container (50) 
also has a series of threadlike projections (56, 57) 
below the container threads and 
the closure thread is received in helical slots between the container 
threads and the threadlike projections. 
The threadlike projections help to 
positively lift the closure off the container 
finish during the opening of 
the container.

Patent EP-0246001-A3 (EP)
IPC: B65G47/68
Filed: 1987-04-29
Abstract: In apparatus for re-arranging articles (10) in a single file, 
multiple rows of cylindrical articles are brought into an align­
ment zone, merged into an equilateral triangular configura­
tion with mutually touching side edges within the alignment 
zone and accelerated into a high pressure buffer section (A) of 
the alignment zone where they are separated from each other 
and thereafter converged into single file.  
     The buffer section (A) eliminates the possibility of trans­
mission of upstream forces through the single file apparatus 
due to engagement of the single file articles by downstream 
equipment. In one embodiment, the imperforate sidewalls 
(280,282) in the buffer section slope downwardly away from 
an imperforate top cover (256) to provide progressive relief of 
air pressure within the buffer section.  
     In another embodiment, the imperforate sidewalls 
(248,250) have an upper edge which is contiguous with a top 
cover which is in the form of a plenum (256) having rows of 
jet openings (260) positioned above the jet openings (94) in 
the air table. The imperforate sidewalls extend downstream 
to a point where the air buffer zone is less than two article 
diameters in width. The articles provide a self-valving action 
wherein the most downstream article moves away from the 
imperforate sidewall (248) on one side and relieves the air 
pressure so that the next upstream article moves down­
stream. In another embodiment, the top cover (296) is imper­
forate except for the downstream end which has a plurality of 
rows of apertures (294) for progressively relieving the static 
pressure as the articles sequentially pass the apertures.

Title: Rapidly training a speech recognizer to a subsequent speaker given training data of a reference speaker
IPC: G10L15/07
Filed: 1988-06-16
Abstract: Apparatus and method for training the statistics of a Markov Model speech recognizer to a subsequent speaker who utters part of a training text after the recognizer has been trained for the statistics of a reference speaker who utters a full training text. Where labels generated by an acoustic processor in response to uttered speech serve as outputs for Markov models, the present apparatus and method determine label output probabilities at transitions in the Markov models corresponding to the subsequent speaker where there is sparse training data. Specifically, label output probabilities for the subsequent speaker are re-parameterized based on confusion matrix entries having values indicative of the similarity between an  l th label output of the subsequent speaker and a kth label output for the reference speaker. The label output probabilities based on re-parameterized data are combined with initialized label output probabilities to form "smoothed" label output probabilities which feature smoothed probability distributions. Based on label outputs generated when the subsequent speaker utters the shortened training text, "basic" label output probabilities computed by conventional methodology are linearly averaged against the smoothed label output probabilities to produce improved label output probabilities.

Title: Method for the transmission of data by means of optical waveguides
IPC: H04B10/556
Filed: 1989-01-31
Abstract: A method for inserting an additional channel into a main channel during the transmission of data between two stations via optical waveguides is specified. For this purpose, bits of the optical additional channel are inserted with a bit rate which is lower compared with the main channel at an arbitrary position in each case in place of a double bit at defined intervals which are known in the transcoder of the receiving station into an optical main channel originating from the transcoder of the transmitting station and removed again from the optical main channel at the receiver end. The bits of the additional channel inserted into the main channel are double bits which are equal to an illegal bit combination which is obtained during the recoding of the electrical AMI code into the optical CMI code. At the receiver end, the double bits of the main channel, replaced by the bits of the additional channel, are recovered by means of a sequential logic as determined by the rules of the electrical code.
