Patent AU-1723497-A (AU)
Title: Audio system that can be mounted on the body of a user
Inventor: ZINSERLING BERT
IPC: H04R5/033
Filed: 1997-02-10
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP97/00605 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 25, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 25, 1999 PCT Filed Feb. 10, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/41709 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 6, 1997A sound reproduction arrangement having at least one sound transducer and a holding means carrying the at least one sound transducer, for support on the body of a user is disclosed. Such an arrangement has been known hitherto as a headset. The headset has two ear caps, in each of which is arranged at least one respective sound transducer. The headset is supported on the body of the user by virtue of it being fitted on to the head so that a respective ear cap bears with its open side directly on an ear of the user or encloses same, and thus the sound transducer or transducers disposed in the ear cap output the acoustic signals directly to the ear (the known headset would therefore in itself be more correctly identified as a |earphone|). It is characteristic of a headset that the left ear receives only the left audio signal and the right ear receives only the right audio signal of the headset. The disclosed sound reproduction arrangement makes it possible to achieve high-quality sound reproduction with improved spatial association, in particular in the case of multi-channel sound reproduction, in a structurally simple manner and without involving the need for a relatively large amount of space, without the installation problems which occur in relation to loudspeaker systems and without being influenced by the acoustics of the roan, while reproduction is also to be possible with relatively high sound volumes, without disturbing the environment. This is done by making the holding portion of such a configuration that it can be supported on a part of the body of the user, which is different from the head, and in that situation the at least one sound transducer can be positioned adjacent and at a spacing relative to the head of the user so that the head of the user remains freely movable with respect to the holding means and thus with respect to the at least one sound transducer.

Title: Dart game target construction
Inventor: DEVALE DONALD P
IPC: F41J3/00
Filed: 1988-12-09
Abstract: A dart game target having a base (11) on which is assembled a plurality of individual, relatively movable target members (3, 4, 5, 6) separated from one another by a frame (2) having thin ribs (13-17, 19) interposed between adjacent members. The target members are yieldably biased in a direction away from the base. Movement of the members in a direction away from the base is limited by laterally extending projections (33, 34, 41, 56) carried by the target members which underlie the inner surfaces of the ribs. The arrangement is such that no part of any rib overlies any exposed part of any target member. Warping of the frame or of the base is compensated for by protrusions (87) on selected ones of the ribs which extend in a direction toward the base.

Title: Sanitary napkin having stiffening side stabilizers
Inventor: MAY MELISSE NOEL
IPC: A61F13/472
Filed: 1995-06-16
Abstract: A unitary disposable absorbent article, particularly a catamenial pad or incontinent pad, having stabilizer members along the longitudinal side edges to enable the pad to assume a configuration conforming closely to the perineal area of the human body thereby more readily intercepting bodily discharges and providing a barrier to side soiling. The absorbent articles of the present invention comprise a central absorbent panel; a pair of side wall panels extending outwardly from and along the side borders of the central absorbent panel; and an axis of flexural bending joining each side wall panel to the central absorbent panel. The absorbent articles are constructed of a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet joined to the topsheet, an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet, side flaps extending outwardly from and along the side edges of the absorbent core, and stabilizer members joined in the side wall panels with the laterally innermost edge of the stabilizer member being disposed at or laterally inward from the side edge of the absorbent core. Thus, the stabilizer members increase the flexural stiffness of the side wall panels so that the flexural stiffness of each side wall panel is greater than the flexural stiffness of the central absorbent panel of the absorbent article. The lateral compression of the side wall panels is also greater than the lateral compression of the central absorbent panel to allow the central absorbent panel to buckle and bend upward to conform to the body. Preferably, the stabilizer members are joined to the wearer's surface of the topsheet to further provide a barrier to the lateral flow of liquids along the top surface of the absorbent article.

Title: Method and apparatus for selectively transmitting packets of message data to a remote communication station
Inventor: JOHANSSON CARL FREDRIK
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1997-09-26
Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, selectively transmits packets of message data between a sending and a receiving station. When a packet of message data is received at a receiving station, the receiving station acknowledges reception thereat of the packet with an acknowledgment response signal, transmitted back to the sending station. If the sending station fails to detect an acknowledgment response signal, a packet of activity-request data is sent to the receiving station. If the receiving station fails to acknowledge reception of the packet of activity-request data, a determination is made that the receiving station would be unlikely to be able to receive an additional packet of message data. A channel to be used to transmit the packet of message data can instead be reallocated for other purposes.

Title: Microscopical mapping system
Inventor: JANSSON PETER ALLAN
IPC: H01J37/26
Filed: 1985-12-16
Abstract: A "flying field" computer aided interactive microscopical mapping system has been developed that enables an operator to map over a region of the specimen covering many microscopical fields of view without the discontinuities associated with moving the stage and then generating mapping marks as separate and discrete operations. By fixing the mark generation point at a single location on the display device corresponding to the instantaneous intersection of the microscope's optical axis with the specimen stage, a trail of marks are produced that move in unison with the stage motion to remain superimposed with the viewed live specimen image. The points thus recorded are available for later display and analysis.
