Patent EP-0806679-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SILVESTRIN PIERLUIGI
IPC: G01S19/44
Filed: 1997-04-30
Abstract: The receiver includes a reference antenna (ANT1) and two slave antennas (ANT2,ANT3), connected via low-noise preamplifiers (LNA1-LNA3) to a multiplexer (MUX) from which output first processor (DT1) recovers a navigational parameter. A second processor (DT2) fed continuously with the reference antenna signal recovers a reference signal representing a parameter of the antenna position. The reference signal is taken into consideration by a digital signal processor (DSP) operating on the multiplexed signals. The switching time at the reference signal input to the multiplexer is shorter than at the inputs from the other antennas.

Abstract: Foam which is produced on the surface of a liquid treatment vessel is recovered and returned to the liquid. A vertical shaft (5) rotating inside the treatment vessel (1) carries a mixer (4) which agitates the liquid (3). It also carries a helical mixer (13) which draws foam down from the surface into the liquid. The helix (13) is positioned inside a vertical cylindrical crown (11) mounted beneath the liquid surface. Anti-vortex devices (14 and 15) are positioned above and below the helix inside the crown. The volume of liquid and foam moved by the helix is controlled (16) as well as the level of the liquid (17).

Abstract: Garment, e.g. a new pair of jeans, made from dyed twill fabric
and having localised variations in the colour density of
the fabric providing the jeans with a stone-washed or
abraded look corresponding to a delta remission value (AR)
higher than 11, and a reflection of a first area of the
jeans fabric of less than 12%, the reflection and AR value
being determined by a) measuring the reflection of the first
and a second area of the fabric at a wavelength of 420 nm
using a reflectometer having a measuring diaphragm with a
diametrical dimension of 27 mm, the first area being located
within the area of the upper half of the zipper cover visibly
having the highest colour density (i.e. being relatively
more coloured), and the second area being located at least
about 5 cm from any stitching present on the jeans, b) expressing
the reflection in % related to a white standard
(100% reflection), and c) calculating the AR value as the
difference between the % reflection of the first and the
second area, respectively; and a process for the manufacturing
of such garments.

IPC: F02P3/045
Filed: 1997-06-02
Abstract: An ignition system for internal combustion engines with spark
ignition comprising an ignition coil, a spark plug connected
to the secondary winding, an electric supply circuit
associated with the primary winding of the coil, where the
said circuit includes a semiconductor device controlled by an
electronic control unit programmed to produce a charging cycle
in the course of which the instantaneous current flowing in
the primary winding gradually increases from a minimum value
to a maximum value and then returns brusquely to the minimum
value. The electronic control unit is programmed to produce a
succession of charging cycles during one and the same engine
cycle. Each of the said charging cycles is separated from the
previous cycle by a time interval (W) of a duration that is
either equal to or greater than the duration (DA) of a
discharge cycle.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for adaptive bit allocation and hybrid lossless entropy encoding. The system includes three components: (1) a transform stage, (2) a quantization stage, and (3) a lossless entropy coder stage. The transform stage (1) uses a wavelet transform algorithm. The quantization stage (2) adaptively estimates values for parameters defining an approximation between quantization size and the logarithm of quantization error, and recursively calculates the optimal quantization size for each band to achieve a desired bit rate. The baseband and subbands are transformed into quantization matrices using the corresponding quantization sizes. The lossless entropy coder stage (3) uses the observation that the entropy property of run lengths of zero index values in the subband quantization matrices is different from the entropy property of non-zero indices. Each quantization matrix is parsed so that each non-zero index is extracted into a separate steam, and the remaining position information is parsed into an odd stream of run length values for "0" and an even stream of run length values for "1". These three streams are Huffman coded separately in conventional fashion. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention is directed to compositions comprising mixtures of reagents, including thermostable enzymes (e.g., thermostable DNA polymerases), buffers, cofactors and other components, suitable for immediate use in nucleic acid amplification or sequencing techniques without dilution or addition of further components. The compositions contain no stabilizing agents (e.g., glycerol or serum albumin) and unexpectedly maintain activity for extended periods of time upon storage at temperature above freezing. These compositions are useful, alone or in the form of kits, for nucleic acid amplification (e.g., by the Polymerase Chain Reaction, as exemplified in the Figure) and sequencing (e.g., by dideoxy or 'Sanger' sequencing), or for any procedure utilizing thermostable DNA polymerases in a variety of medical, forensic and agricultural applications. In particular, the compositions and methods are useful for amplifying and sequencing nucleic acid molecules that are larger than about 7 kilobases in size.

Abstract: In packaging means of the kind comprising an outer box (11) and
shells (12,13) made from moulded pulp for supporting and protecting an
article within them, an important novel feature is that the shells
(12,13) are interconnected by a cardboard piece (14) folded or cut from
a cardboard sheet material. 
     With this arrangement, both lateral and vertical support for the
article can be provided by using pulp shells (12,13) of smaller
dimensions than would otherwise be necessary. By combining moulded pulp
shells with cardboard objects, a rigid unit capable of supporting and
protecting the packed article is obtained. The well known shock
absorbing quality of the moulded pulp article is combined with the
stiffeners of the folded cardboard in a way which adds the good
qualities of both materials in a way resulting in a better total
packaging.
