Title: Recipe calculation method for matt colour shades
Inventor: JOHANSSON UWE
IPC: C09D7/80
Filed: 2004-06-10
Granted: 2009-06-30
Abstract: The present invention provides a colour recipe calculation method for matt finished, solid colour shades, by means of which it is possible to determine the proportion of matting agents in a colour recipe in a manner decoupled from the actual calculation of the recipe and is based on a conventional spectrophotometric characterization of a matt sample using a standardised 45~/0~ measurement geometry along with an established gloss measurement, or alternatively using a spectrophotometer equipped with a d/8~ measurement geometry and analyzing readings taken with the specular component included and excluded.

According to the invention, both sides of the sole comprise a plurality of longitudinal grooves, in the area corresponding to the sole of the foot, which are essentially parallel to the edge of the sole closest thereto and which have a depth equal to half of the height of the sole.  Moreover, the grooves are disposed in an alternating manner in relation to one another on either side of the sole in the form of a bellows-type structure.  The upper comprises a perforated elastic laminar body which is disposed beneath the insole in the area corresponding to the sole of the foot and which, together with the sole, forms a chamber having a volume that varies upon walking. In addition, three thick bands are solidly connected to the body and the upper in order to stiffen said elastic laminar body, namely: one longitudinal band and two transverse end bands. In this way, the footwear item and the sole adapt perfectly to the anatomy of the foot, enabling same to be automatically ventilated upon walking.

IPC: E04D1/30
Filed: 1995-10-19
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: An asphaltic polyurethane or isocyanurate foam (12) useful in roofing applications. The foam is made from asphalt having a penetration range of between approximately 5-25, a softening point of between approximately 120°F and 200°F, and an asphaltene content of no more than about 30%. This asphalt is liquified and mixed with a mixture of polyols such as Voranol 270, Multranol 9138, and castor oil. Other chemicals, such as a surfactant, a viscosity reducer, and a flame retardant can also be included in this mixture. The mixture is then brought to a temperature of between approximately 140°F and 220°F, mixed with water and a polyisocyanate in a molar ration of polyisocyanate: polycol of between about 0.95:1 and about 1.3:1, and reacted to form an asphaltic polyurethane foam. Alternatively, a molar ratio of polyisocyanate: polyol of between about 2.0:1 and about 2.7:1 can be used. In this case, an asphaltic isocyanurate foam is produced.

Abstract: An adapter that bridges the connecting ends of a medication providing device and a fluid connector includes a housing shroud that is fitted at one end with a core and at its other end with an inner shroud. Once fitted to the housing shroud, the core and the inner shroud each are not removable from the housing shroud. A catch hub is provided within the housing shroud for non-removably maintaining the core to the housing shroud. The core is rotatable relative to the housing shroud. Sufficient friction is provided between the core and the housing shroud to enable the medication providing device to be readily coupled to the core. Once the medication providing device is coupled to the core, and therefore the adapter, additional rotational movement, in either direction, of the medication providing device would only cause the core to rotate freely relative to the housing shroud, thereby preventing the medication providing device such as a syringe from being removed from the adapter. The inner shroud has a catch mechanism that enables it to mate readily with a connector, if the connector is rotated in one direction. The catch mechanism is designed such that once the connector is fully mated to the inner shroud, further rotational movement along the coupling direction would cause the inner shroud to rotate freely relative to the housing shroud. The catch mechanism is further configured to allow the connector to be removed if it were to be turned in a counter rotational direction. The connecting portion of the inner shroud is configured to accept a complementary connector. The connecting portion of the core likewise is configured to accept a complementary connector of the medication providing device to ensure that a proper medication conveying path is established between the medication providing device and the connector, and therefore the patient.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vision system for representing synthetically generated images for the stimulation of night vision appliances, especially in training simulators for driving or flight training, and lighting and observation operations in night vision conditions. Said system comprises an image generator (17) for generating image signals of a synthetic image, at least one projector (16) which is fed with the image signals and used to project the image onto at least one projection screen (11), and a night vision appliance (15) for visualising the projected image. The aim of the invention is to create a technically less complex, cost-effective visual system, whereby the projected image is visualised through the night vision appliance (15) in an undisturbed manner when the night vision appliance is stimulated correctly. To this end, the at least one projector (16) comprises a laser source producing a laser projection beam, that radiates an optical wavelength (X) in the non-visible spectral region and within the spectral sensitivity of the night vision appliance (15). The image signals are modulated onto the laser source, which is preferably a laser diode. Preferably, a narrow-band interference filter (19) adapted to the optical wavelength (X) of the laser source is mounted upstream of the night vision appliance (15).

Abstract: In a network overlay wireless location solution for a GSM or UMTS  communications network, spectrum utilization can be made far more efficient by synchronizing the BTSs, which can require distributing a timing signal to all BTSs, or installing a satellite-based timing unit in each site. The present invention provides an architecture in which Location Measurement Units (LMUs) are installed at some or all of the BTS sites for the purpose of locating wireless devices. The LMUs are used to measure the timing of various uplink and/or downlink signals in the cellular network in support of various location techniques. These LMUs may include a GPS-based timing reference module, which may be used to synchronize the time bases of all LMUs. To reduce the overall cost of BTS synchronization, the LMU distributes timing signals, including a periodic electrical pulse as well as time description information, on a serial or other interface, which is available for other nodes to use for synchronization. The format of the electrical pulse and time description information is modified through hardware and software to adapt to the various formats required by various BTS types. For example, the BTSs with co-located LMUs can receive a synchronization signal with little or no hardware cost. The External Interface Unit (EIU) described herein may be used to adapt to various BTS hardware formats. For BTS sites not equipped with an LMU, a Timing Measurement Unit (TMU) can be used. The TMU has the single function of providing BTS time signals in the same formats as provided by the LMUs. The time signals provided by the TMUs are synchronous to the signals provided by the LMUs. This timing-only TMU has a lower cost than the LMU because it does not support the uplink or downlink signal measurement functions. This approach allows a cellular operator to synchronize BTSs at a relatively low cost.
