Abstract: Sheet pressing means for a multi-color sheet-fed press adapted for both first-side printing and perfecting printing wherein the press includes a press frame and first and second impression cylinders with a sheet-turning cylinder therebetween. The sheet pressing means includes a plurality of hollow air-blowing fingers disposed after the printing zone of the first impression cylinder for directing blown air to press a sheet onto the surface of the first impression cylinder, with the fingers being disposed in substantially equidistant relationship to one another on a support tube which is disposed above the first impression cylinder and substantially parallel to the axis thereof along substantially the entire length of the first impression cylinder. Preferably, the fingers each have at the downstream end thereof an air exit surface with air exit orifices formed therein, and the exit surfaces are formed to conform generally to the convex external contour of the first impression cylinder and have a downstream tip end adapted to be positioned closely adjacent the point of tangency between the first impression cylinder and the sheet-turning cylinder. In the preferred embodiment, an articulated linkage is mounted on the press frame for selectively moving the support tube, the fingers and the tip ends thereof toward said point of tangency for perfecting printing and away from said point of tangency for first-side printing and a valve is provided for controlling the air flow through the fingers.

Abstract: A method of making apertured films includes the step of per­forationg films of thermoplastic materials with embossing rolls engraved with patterns which form small slits or inci­pient slits in the sheet. The patterns are such that the de­sign on the roll includes lands, or raised areas, which cross lands of the opposing roll at an acute angle. The perforated or partially perforated film formed may then be further pro­cessed by orientation, uniaxial or biaxial, simultaneous or sequential; by heat treatment; or both to modify the porosity, hole size, or other properties as desired.

Abstract: A modular electric appliance comprises an appliance module (202) which carries contacts (220) on its exterior and may be inserted within a tubular portion (103) of the handle portion (106) of the appliance. Preferably the appliance module carries two different appliance portions at its opposite ends such as a drill chuck (213) and a socket wrench (212). If these appliance portions are rotary tools, they may be driven by a common electric motor (201). The appliance module is energised from annular contacts (208) formed on the interior surface of the tubular portion (103). In an alternative embodiment, the module (202) may carry three or more contacts (220) so disposed that only one pair of these contacts is energised according to the orientation of the modular when it is inserted into the tubular portion (103). This ensures that only the appliance portion protruding from the tubular portion (103) is energised.

IPC: G01S13/74

Abstract: This invention relates to an improved signal reader for reading signals from transponders placed on moveable objects such as ship containers, automobiles or railroad cars. The reader sends out a continuous signal, which is modified by the information contained in the transponder attached to the moveable object. Multiple antennas, each of which receive separate signals, may be multiplexed at the reader. The improved circuit of the invention provides quick recognition of the receipt of a valid signal from a transponder or, in the alternative, the absence of such a valid signal. The circuit of the invention first provides a detection pulse stream. Each pulse of the detection pulse stream coincides in time with an expected edge of the predetermined pulse stream reflected back to the reader from the transponder. A detection circuit is connected to receive the detection pulse stream at the same time it receives signals to be evaluated. The detection circuit detects the presence of pulse edges which are coincident with the pulses from the detection pulse stream, and provides a detection output signal in the event of such coincidence. A counter counts the number of detection output   signals from the detection circuit and provides a validity signal depending upon the number of detection output signals received for a given number of detection pulses. A preferred embodiment of the invention also detects the number of background noise pulses when there are no pulses from the detection pulse stream. These coincidences indicate the receipt of invalid data, and are subtracted in the counter as an invalidity signal. The apparatus of the invention is thus capable of rapidly separating valid pulse streams from invalid ones and providing a validity or invalidity signal which may be used to control the multiplexing of a reader from one antenna to another.

Abstract: The invention disclosed herein provides the basic operating capabilities of SNA data communications for host based application-to-application sessions across a packet switched network such as the Defense Data Network (DDN). The problem that is presented by the integration of these two technologies is that SNA is a connection oriented technology and DDN is a connectionless technology that requires an Internetting Protocol (IP) header on all information transmitted through the network and across multiple networks. One of the concepts of the invention is the definition of a localized SNA network to each SNA host by the channel attached Front End Processors (FEPs). These FEPs present an SNA PU4 definition to the host to allow it to carry out regular SNA sessions over the packet switched network to another host through its own respective FEP. The two FEPs working together imbed the SNA protocols in the IP datagrams and provide the proper SNA connections and control. This technique also allows any host to access any other host for which it has authorization.

Abstract: A shelf-stable device for transdermally administering an active pharmaceutical to a patient. The device includes a drug reservoir (16) that contains the drug formulation. In one preferred embodiment of the present invention, the drug reservoir (16) is sandwiched between an upper (18) and a lower (20) solvent barrier film that are made from a material such as a polyester that will not absorb the drug and/or skin permeating enhancing solvent, if any, contained within the reservoir. The drug reservoir and solvent barrier films are encapsulated within a hermetically-sealed compartment (22) that protects the drug formulation from common environmental factors such as water vapor, oxygen, and light which can adversely affect the stability and efficacy of the drug formulation. The hermetically-sealed (22) compartment also prevents the drug formulation from coming into contact with and possibly dissolving the adhesive used to secure the device to the patient's skin. In another particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the device's drug reservoir is encapsulated within a hermetically-sealed compartment that is made from (combined) solvent/environment barrier films (70) that serve the dual functions of preventing the device's components from absorbing the drug/solvent formulation from the reservoir, and protecting the drug/solvent formulation from common environmental factors.
