Abstract: A hospital bed that is convertible to a chair for patient egress from the foot end of the bed. A patient support platform has serially hinged, normally horizontal head, seat, thigh and foot panels. To convert the horizontal bed to the chair configuration, the patient support platform in the lowermost vertical position is translated longitudinally toward the foot end of the bed. The head panel is pivoted upwardly and the foot panel pivots downwardly to a generally vertical attitude. The foot panel includes a collapsing portion which telescopes into a pivoting portion to thereby avoid interference with the floor as the foot panel is pivoted to a vertical attitude. When converted to the chair configuration, an area is vacated at the foot end of the bed to provide a space for docking a wheelchair or other ambulatory assisting device. The patient's feet rest directly on the floor in the chair configuration in that the foot panel collapses into itself as it pivots downwardly rather than pivoting along a second axis to underlie the patient's feet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a speaker recognition method and system which applies adaptive component weighting to each frame of speech for attenuating non-vocal tract components and normalizing speech components. A linear predictive all pole model is used to select frames for an adaptively weighted cepstrum. Frames with a predetermined number of resonances are selected for cepstrum analysis. An adaptively weighted cepstrum is determined from a new transfer function. A normalized cepstrum is determined having improved characteristics for speech components. From the improved speech components, improved speaker recognition over a channel is obtained.

Date Jan. 18, 1996It is known that enriching fuel with oxygen improves combustion and thus reduces fuel consumption, improves performance and reduces pollutant and soot particle emission. In order to prevent the air admixed into the fuel before the air is introduced into the combustion chamber from forming air bubbles in the supply pipe, the fuel-air mixture is selectively degassed depending on the size of the air bubbles. The fuel is fed by a feed pump (4), through a suction pipe (2), from a tank (1) into an apparatus (3), and from there into an internal combustion engine (5). Air is admixed by device (6). The apparatus (3) contains a degassing chamber (7) with a floater (8) that closes the lower admission (10) with a sealing cone (9) and that controls with an actuating pin (11) an inlet valve (12) depending on the level of fuel in the chamber.

Abstract: A sweeping member (5), together with a plate (2) which is to be worked and lies on a layer (4) of resilient material of a table leaf (3), is pressed over a certain distance, the depth of impression, into the resilient layer (4). Subsequently the sweeping member (5) is slid substantially parallel to the supporting leaf (3) over the plate (2) in the direction of the arrow P1, the resilient layer (4) being continuously impressed, thereby causing the plate material (2) to deform at the site of the zone of impression. By moving the sweeping member (5) continuously over the plate (2), that portion of the plate (2) which has already been swept will begin to display a curvature having a certain radius R. By varying the depth of impression, the plate material (2) can be provided locally with different radii of curvature.

Abstract: A golf game uses radio signals from golf balls to signal to a central computer for automatic score-keeping by the computer. Sensors in each hole also send signals to the computer on the completion of each hole play for each golfer. The golf balls are distinguishable by the computer according to their radio frequencies or digital or other signal processing and coding encoding. The golf balls transmit struck by special golf clubs which incorporate magnets; the balls include magnetic or other corresponding sensors. Each player, upon starting the game, inputs his/her name or initials which action identifies the specific ball he/she has been assigned use on the course. Scores are reported optionally at each hole, and a final score is reported by the computer at the conclusion of play.
