Patent EP-0610100-A1 (EP)
Inventor: EMBLETON MICHAEL CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B65D71/70
Filed: 1994-02-07
Abstract: A thermo-formed tray (3) carries staggered rows of bottles (1) as one of five such trays stacked one upon the other. The tray (3) is stacked on the tops of bottles (1) of the tray immediately below, with the tops engaged in channels (9) of the tray's under-surface (7). The closed-end channels (9) are defined by troughs (6) and (10) in an upper-surface (5) of the tray (3) that is otherwise flat within a peripheral wall (4). The troughs (6) are of short lengths so that the walls (8) of the channels (9) are interrupted to relieve frictional resistance against removal of the tray (3) from the bottles (1) below, and in regions (11) are omitted altogether to allow the tray to be lifted by suction pads. An orderly array of the bottles (1) in maintained in spite of the lack of row-constraint on the tops of the bottles (1) where the channel walls (8) are interrupted in both these ways, by virtue of abutment of the bottles (1) upon one another within their rows and also between adjacent rows. As an alternative (Figure 5), troughs are omitted other than along the sides (26) of the array and at the ends of the rows (30).

Abstract: A signal reproduction apparatus such as an audio apparatus consists of a plurality of devices including a receiver. The receiver receives a broadcast wave signal which includes a primary signal and data relating to a broadcasting station, a program, etc. and transmitted together with the primary signal. The receiver includes a tuner circuit for receiving the broadcast wave signal, a decoder circuit and a signal generation device. The decoder circuit extracts the data relating to the broadcasting station and the program from the broadcast wave signal received by the tuner circuit. The signal generation device generates a remote control signal based on the data output from the decoder circuit, and outputs the generated remote control signal. The audio device includes a receiving section for receiving the remote control signal output from the signal processing device. The operation of the audio device is controlled based on a control signal output from the receiving section.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a potentially inexpensive light source for multi-channel wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) applications. The high-power amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from a fiber amplifier, which is already in the optical fiber, is efficiently divided into many channels using a WDM demultiplexer. This "spectrum-sliced" ASE is used as light sources for WDM systems rather than several wavelength-selected DFB lasers.

Date Feb. 16, 1995A device for simultaneously filtering and humidifying an air flow uses an outer casing having a rotatable, reticulated filtering element. The air flow enters the casing and must pass through the filtering element by making abrupt change in directions. Particles in the air flow, due to their greater inertia, will not be able to follow the air flow and, therefore, will not pass through the filtering element. There are expelled through an opening. The air flow exists through an outlet that is within the perimeter of the filtering element. A water projector serves to both humidify the air flow and wetten the filter elements surface in order to capture particles in the air flow.

Abstract: A machine tool, typically a CNC cylindrical grinding machine comprising a bed; a worktable movable relative to the bed along a linear path; a tool head such as a wheelhead movable in a direction generally perpendicular to the direction of worktable travel with a rotatable grinding wheel mounted thereon for engaging a workpiece mounted on the worktable; headstock and tailstock means carried by the worktable for supporting the workpiece at its opposite ends; drive means associated with the headstock and tailstock means for rotating the workpiece, and a worksteady mounted so as to oppose workpiece deflection due to contact between the tool and the workpiece, the worksteady comprising a stationary part and a probe movable relative thereto, to engage the workpiece. Drive means is provided for moving the probe relative to the stationary part of the worksteady towards and away from the workpiece. Control means serves to control the probe drive means. Transducer means associated with bearings in the headstock and tailstock generate signals indicative of any net force acting on each bearing both in magnitude and direction; and circuit means supply electrical signals derived from the transducer signals and indicative of the net forces or the resultant thereof, to the said control system. The latter is programmed so as to generate control signals for the probe drive to extend or retract the probe and thereby adjust the force exerted by the probe on the workpiece, so as to at least in part cancel the net force exerted by the workpiece respectively on the headstock and tailstock bearings.
