Title: Erecting tray-type cartons
IPC: B31B50/44
Filed: 1984-05-04
Abstract: © In the erection of rectangular tray-type cartons (110) from blanks (10) of foldable sheet material, corner tabs (201) which are to be uppermost in the erected carton are first folded up from the plane of the balnk, which is then passed through a die (54) by a punch (52) to form the side wall (24). On completion of the stroke of the punch, the pair of opposed elongate panels (181) which carry the uppermost tabs (201) are folded outwardly by folding bars (58) carried by the punch. The partially erected carton (42) is then transferred to a continuously moving conveyor (43) and the other pair of elongate panels (18) are folded outwardly by oscillating fingers (70) and plough bars (74). The upstanding tabs (201) are then heated by travelling hot air jets and pressed down by pressure rollers (46) to seal them to the other tabs (20) and complete the horizontal peripheral flange (28) which extends continuously around the carton.
Patent GB-8507023-D0 (GB)
Title: Extraction of phonemic information
IPC: G10L15/00
Filed: 1985-03-19
Abstract: When subjected to frequency analysis and plotted in a frequency spectral distribution, a voice signal typically includes a monotonously and relatively slowly changing component and a relatively rapidly changing component. For the recognition of voice sound, the relatively rapidly changing component contains phonemic information and thus is more important. In order to extract such a relatively rapidly changing component containing phonemic information from a voice signal, the voice signal is first subjected to frequency analysis to obtain a frequency spectral distribution, which is then sampled from one end to the other and then in the reversed order in timed sequence repetitively to produce a periodic waveform. Then, the thus obtained periodic waveform is filtered to remove the relatively slowly changing component thereby extracting the relatively rapidly changing component.

Abstract: A low pressure gaseous hydrocarbon fuel storage system and power plant is described which generally comprises on-board means for storing a self-contained supply of a gaseous hydrocarbon fuel, a prime mover, means for conveying the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel to and from the storing means, and means for controlling the flow of the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel from the storing means to the prime mover. The on-board storing means, which may include one or more vessels or cylinders, contains a predetermined sorbent material for reducing the pressure at which the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel is stored. The conveying means is adapted to convey the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel to the on-board storing means from a stationary source of the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel, and also to convey the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel from the storing means to the combining means of the prime mover during the operation of the vehicle. In the preferred embodiment, the maximum pressure at which the gaseous hydrocarbon fuel is stored in the on-board storing means is in the range of approximately 100 psig (689 kPa) to approximately 400 psig (2760kPa). The apparatus generally includes one or more gas compressors for compressing the gaseous fuel to a predetermined pressure, preferably approximately 400 psig (2760 kPa). Sorbent filtering and storage means are also preferably provided for maximizing the amount of fuel to be stored in the apparatus in order to supply a quick initial charge of the gaseous fuel to the vehicle or other gaseous fuel consuming device.

Title: Tempering edible compositions
IPC: A23G1/18
Filed: 1986-02-06
Abstract: A method of tempering edible fatty compositions such as chocolate involves controlling the temperature of the composition to a predetermined temperature, passing the temperature-controlled composition continuously through a heat exchanger (102) monitoring the consistency of the composition being discharged from the heat exchanger (102) and using this to control the cooling of the composition in the heat exchanger (102).

Title: Emulsion binders
IPC: D04H1/435
Filed: 1988-09-12
Abstract: Lofted non-woven materials are formed by bonding fibres and used for, e.g. furniture filing and heat insulation. The flammability of these materials is an important characteristic. The use of copolymer emulsions having defined Tg, molecular weight and solution viscosity as binders allows the material to melt away from an open flame. Thus the flammability of the non-woven material is reduced.
