Title: Athlete's GPS-based performance monitor
Inventor: ROOT GARY MILLER
IPC: G04G99/00
Filed: 1999-03-26
Granted: 2001-12-20
Abstract: A Global Positioning System (GPS) based personal athletic performance monitor for providing an athlete with real-time athletic performance feedback data such as elapsed exercise time, distance covered, average pace, elevation difference, distance to go and/or advice for reaching pre-set targets. The monitor is integrated with an AM/FM/TV personal radio, and the athletic performance feedback is provided through a set of audio headphones using an audio module. The monitor can be connected to an external personal computer via a serial or infrared port for further data storage and long term trend analysis, or to a remote computer via modem, where historical performance data is collected and logically compiled from participating athletes worldwide. Results are then transferred to an Internet web site which displays comparison data representing the relative performances of two or more athletes, provides customized individual training advice and virtual competitions, and an opportunity for advertisers to reach highly well defined potential customers. Geographically and demographically targeted advertising messages are also downloaded to the performance monitor while connected to the remote computer.
Patent AU-672963-B2 (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for charging, thawing, and formatting a battery
Inventor: PODRAZHANSKY YURY
IPC: H01M10/48
Filed: 1993-01-19
Granted: 1996-10-24
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for rapidly charging a battery. The preferred charging method comprises applying one or more charging pulses (C1, C2), separated by a waiting period (CW1), with the last charging pulse, if there are more than one, being followed by a second waiting period (CW2). This is then followed by a series of discharging pulses (D1, D2, D3), which are separated by waiting periods (DW1, DW2), and followed by a last waiting period (DW3) before the occurrence of the next charging pulse (C1). The discharging pulses preferably have a magnitude which is approximately the same as the magnitude of the charging pulses but which have a duration which is substantially smaller than the duration of the charging pulses. The discharging pulses serve to create and disperse ions throughout the electrolyte of the battery so that the ions do not shield the plates of the battery from further charge transfer. Multiple discharge pulses are used rather than a single discharging pulse so that natural chemical and electrical gradients within the battery will serve to disperse the ions more evenly throughout the electrolyte. The use of discharging pulses of an extremely small duration does not cause any significant discharge of the battery but does increase the rate at which the battery can be charged and the efficiency with which the battery can be charged, thereby minimizing charging time and battery heating. Also disclosed are a method and an apparatus for thawing and charging a frozen battery, for formatting a new battery, for determining the state of formation of a battery, and for determining the state of charge of a battery.

Title: Blood collector cylinder with needle ejector
Inventor: SPENCER TREESA A
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 1989-07-19
Granted: 1991-09-26
Abstract: A blood collector system utilizes a standard disposable needle assembly and standard blood collecting and receiving tubes of the type sealed by a pierceable septum. The system has a hollow cylinder, including an internally apertured sleeve into which the needle assembly is mounted and into which the sealed blood collecting tubes are inserted to be pierced by a needle of the needle assembly. A member, such as a plate, is pivotably mounted to the cylinder. A hole in the plate accommodates the needle assembly while the needle assembly is retained in the cylinder. When the blood specimen collection is complete, the plate is moved in a pivoting motion whereby it catches the needle assembly and ejects it from the cylinder. The apparatus of the invention eliminates the need for a protective sheath to be replaced on the needle assembly before the needle assembly is discarded, and thereby minimizes the health care worker's exposure to accidental needle pricks.
Patent AU-667935-B2 (AU)
Title: Incremental desynchronizer
Inventor: POWELL WILLIAM EDWARD
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1993-08-13
Granted: 1996-04-18
Abstract: A desynchronizer (20) for desynchronizing data stored within synchronous payload envelopes of a synchronous communication protocol such as SONET (Synchronous Optical Network), provides for smoothing the periodically discontinuous clock signal associated with that data after the synchronous communication protocol overhead has been removed. The desynchronizer accommodates for shifts in the position of the payload envelope and hence, the data within the synchronous communication frame as well as adjustments within the data itself due to asynchronous bit stuff information. The desynchronizer utilizes a leak filter (26) having a linear branch (54) and an integrator branch (56), both branches having adjustable factors (61, 63, 65, 88, 90, 91, 93, 95, 100, 102, 105) regarding their operation, wherein the adjustable factors are selected depending upon threshold values (86, 87, 89, 62) which in turn are based upon the difference between the average write address and read address for the associated elastic store (22) within which the incoming data removed from the synchronous communication system frame is temporarily stored. The leak filter (26) forms part of a phase locked loop which in turn adjusts the read clock frequency (46) in a manner which minimizes overflow or underflow of the elastic store while simultaneously minimizing the rate of change of the read clock rate so as to limit jitter. A fault recovery apparatus forms part of the desynchronizer for enabling fastlock high gain factors (67, 97, 107) to quickly adjust the read clock when elastic store overflow or underflow occurs. The gain factor associated with both the linear branch and integrator branch are provisionable (118, 120) as well as elastic store size and thresholds resulting in a desynchronizer which can be modified to meet the particular jitter requirements of a particular synchronous communication system. A calculation engine (82) performs iterative calculations to generate the leak filter output value using a reduced number of logic gates for ASIC implementation. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Title: In an injection moulding tool, a method of and an apparatus for stamping out and removing the runner
Inventor: EHRLER ERNST
IPC: B29C45/38
Filed: 1985-10-29
Granted: 1989-10-19
Abstract: A sprue part is cut and removed from the injection mold part during the manufacture of information storage disks by an injection molding process. The highly sensitive molding of an information storage disk is protected from damage by the sprue and the deposition of dust particles during stripping by this process. The sprue is punched into a part serving as the die of the injection molding tool and subsequently removed, in particular by suction, through an orifice leading from inside the part, together with the dust particles generated in the punching process. Preferably, the sprue is punched out and removed with the injection molding tool closed. The injection molding tool must be opened only after the sprue and the dust have already been removed, thus ensuring that the molded product has an especially good quality.
