Title: Outil télécommandé de passage de corde
Inventor: JANTZEN LEON KEITH
IPC: A01G23/099

Abstract: L'invention concerne un outil destiné à passer une corde à travers un anneau distant ou autour d’un objet hors d’atteinte, par exemple pour hisser des bâches dans des arbres, mettre en place des lignes antichute ou immobiliser un objet distant. L’outil est doté de deux bras incurvés qui se déploient simultanément à partir du corps et convergent en un point où l’extrémité de la corde est passée d’un bras à l’autre. Les bras sont alors de nouveau rétractés dans le corps, tirant la corde à travers l’anneau ou autour de l’objet. Les bras sont déployés en tirant sur une première ligne de commande et rétractés en tirant sur une deuxième ligne de commande. L’outil est typiquement monté à l’extrémité d’une perche, bien que d’autres montages soient possibles. La forme de l’outil permet de passer des cordes à travers un grand nombre de configurations d’anneaux et autour d’objets de tailles variables, même en présence d’obstacles au voisinage de l’anneau.

Title: Pattern matching device
IPC: G10L15/12
Filed: 1982-03-05
Granted: 1987-11-19
Abstract: The pattern matching device carries out pattern matching between two information compressed patterns applying a dynamic programming technique on calculating a similarity measure between the patterns. On carrying out matching of the two patterns a weighted similarity measure calculator (64) calculates a weighted similarity measure by multiplying and intervector similarity measure between one feature vector of each of the respective patterns by a weighting factor calculated by the use of a variable interval between each feature vector and the previous one. A recurrence formula is calculated by use of such weighted similarity measures instead of the intervector similarity measures. A predetermined value  delta may be used in reducing the number of signal bits used for the recurrence formula. Preferably, a sum for the recurrence formula is restricted by two preselected values. Most preferably, an additional similarity measure is used for the recurrence formula.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus useful in controlling the operation of ovens of the type typically associated with baking food products. Broadly, the apparatus permits the linear display of heat input to one or more zones of an oven responsive to gas flow. Heat input is indicated by fluid levels in manometers having their legs dimensioned to permit linear display of heat input despite the variance of gas flow with the square of the pressure. The manometers are positioned next to an adjustable scale which accommodates combustible gases of varying heat contents. The adjustable scale is preferably marked for the preferred heat input profile across the various zones of the oven to facilitate control of optimum heat input to the oven as a whole. Also disclosed are similar display devices for exhaust gases.

Granted: 1988-05-25
Abstract: An optical sensor is made of light transmissive material and has luminescent particles distributed throughout its volume. The luminescent particles are excited by a suitable type of energy, preferably light. As they return to their original state, they emit light uniformly in all directions. Depending upon the relationship of the index of refraction of the sensor body material to that of a test medium abutting a boundary surface of the sensor body, part of the luminescent light is reflected, the remainder passing into the test medium with a change in direction (refraction). When the test medium is optically less dense than the sensor medium luminescent light incident on the boundary surface at an angle exceeding the critical angle undergoes total reflection. For an elongated sensor body, this totally reflected part is transmitted to the end faces of the sensor, where its intensity constitutes a desired measure of a physical quantity. The sensor is effective for any physical characteristic which can change the index of refraction of the surrounding medium or that of the sensor itself. In addition, the quantity of totally reflected light can be varied also by changing the quantity of primary light applied to the sensor. Possible applications of a sensor of this type include measurements of liquid level in a container, the measurement of concentrations of a given component in a solution, temperature and pressure measurements of gases, monitoring of the boiling point of a liquid at very low temperatures, measurements of humidity, and a variety of position and length measurements. The sensor can also be used as a unit in a keyboard.
