Patent NO-991756-D0 (NO)
Inventor: SVENSSON CLAES
IPC: G06F21/60
Filed: 1999-04-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method at a telecommunications system and a data communications system which makes possible signing and encryption of the information which is transmitted between a transmitting and a receiving equipment in said system. The invention is briefly characterized in a software for signing and encryption by means of smart cards which are linked together with a software which can show text, data entry fields, buttons, etc. This program is utilized as a plug-in unit or a Java-unit in a WWW-browser. Before the information is shown to the user, or is transmitted from the user, encryption functions can be applied to the information. All internal communication related to the safety on the local PC will by that be needless, by all necessary information processing being performed in said plug-in unit. All extra steps in the signalling process is by that concealed from the user and intruders, if any.

Title: Valve assembly
IPC: F16K31/08
Filed: 1999-10-01
Abstract: A valve assembly includes a valve body and, located therein, a valve member which can be moved between a first position, in which the valve is in a first operational mode, and a second position, in which the valve is in a second operational mode. The valve member has a rare earth magnet which, when the valve member is in either one of the two operational modes, causes the valve member to be magnetically biased against movement toward the other operational mode. The valve is provided with a device for generating a magnetic field sufficient for overcoming the magnetic bias in the first or second operational mode, so as to cause the valve member to move to the other of the operational modes.

Title: A vacuum cleaning head
IPC: A47L9/04
Filed: 2004-10-15
Abstract: A vacuum cleaning head includes a housing having an agitator in the form of a brush bar rotatably arranged in a chamber having an air inlet and an air outlet and also includes an air turbine for driving the brush bar is provided. The air turbine has its own air inlet for admitting clean air to drive the turbine. A restricting member is arranged in the outlet of the chamber so as to restrict the cross-section of the outlet when the head is pressed against a surface to be cleaned and to restrict the flow of air from the brush bar chamber. The restricting member is designed to distribute incoming air between the main inlet and the turbine inlet in a satisfactory ratio. Thus, more air flows through the turbine, enabling it to drive the brush bar at high rotational speed.

IPC: D21J7/00
Filed: 1984-02-10
Abstract: In the continuous vacuum forming of articles from a fibrous slurry,e.g. from paper pulp, a plurality of two-piece hinged moulds are mounted on a transport apparatus 1 which transports the moulds stepwise in a loop. The internal surfaces of the moulds are defined by wire gauze or mesh 107, 109 and the moulds are connected to a source of suction.The moulds, with the suction applied, are moved through the fibrous slurry contained in a tank 43, whereupon fibres are deposited on the mesh 107, 109, much of the water being drawn off by the suction. The mould passes through a drying station, where warm air is sucked through the mould, further drying the article.The transport apparatus 1 is movable pivotably about an axis 6 by means of a fluid-operated ram 25. At the top of the path, the mould and the article therein are lowered onto a pin 61, a plurality of which are situated on an endless conveyor 59. By means of rods 81, 82, and springs 83 attached to the mould pieces, the mould is opened, and the transport apparatus is lifted, leaving the article on the pin 61. After cleaning with a spray 65, the mould is then ready to undergo another cycle.

Title: Optical system
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 1986-01-21
Abstract: The shaft of an endoscope for passing through a trocar sleeve or a guiding shaft is tapered towards the distal extremity, and this taper is followed proximally by at least one shallowly concave peripheral constriction. The distal objective of the endoscope is thus spaced from the inner walls and distal edges of the trocar sleeve or guiding shaft, so that residues on these inner walls or edges do not contaminate or obscure objective but are instead scraped off by the peripheral constriction.

Title: Blast cleaning
IPC: B24C1/00
Filed: 1986-02-28
Abstract: ® In contrast with the known method of cleansing surfaces by the projection of sand particles in an air stream against the surface, the present invention proposes to project particles of ice or other frozen liquid at the surface with the result that the spent particles will thereafter melt at the ambient temperature and be readily removed from the site and separated, if necessary, from contaminants dislodged from the surface.Apparatus according to the invention comprises means (2, 3, 5, 13-16, 21) for the introduction of ice particles continuously into a stream of pressurised air (20), preferably mixed with water (19, 20). The means may comprise a plurality of containers (20), each successively passing between a position where they receive ice particles from a supply and a position where they release the particles to the stream.
Patent GB-8807577-D0 (GB)
Title: Improvements in/relating to knives
IPC: B26B27/00
Filed: 1988-03-30
Abstract: A safety knife comprises a handle formed with an elongate narrow slot which extends transversely completely through the handle from one lateral surface thereof to the other, and extends lengthwise from a slot mouth in an outer surface of the handle to a location within the handle. The handle is formed in two halves which are clamped together by bolts, and sandwiched between the two halves is a blade having a cutting edge which extends at an acute angle across the width of the slot at a location spaced inwardly from its mouth. In use, string or similar material to be cut is passed along the slot until it meets the cutting edge of the blade, and continued pressure of the blade on the string then severs the string. Since the cutting edge is encased within the handle and is spaced from the mouth of the slot, there is little or no risk of the user being accidentally cut by the blade.

Patent GB-8829919-D0 (GB)
Title: File system
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1988-12-22
Abstract: A disc file system is described in which the disc space is divided into very large blocks of at least 64Kbytes. A large file is allocated a whole number of these large blocks, contiguously where possible. Small files reside in small file areas each of which is composed of a number of large blocks. Space in these small file areas is allocated in multiples of a small block size (e.g. 4Kbytes). The use of large and small blocks reduces the wastage of space that would occur if small files were written into large blocks. The amount of head movement when reading large amounts of data from large files is reduced because of the large block size and because the large blocks are allocated contiguously.

Title: An automatic initialisation method for at least the date display,a device for performing this method and a watch equipped with said device
IPC: G04C3/00
Filed: 1990-10-24
Abstract: The device for implementing the method for the automatic initialisation of the date display of a perpetual calendar electronic watch comprising a face fitted with a window and a date disk permits, every time the watch stops, at the moment the electronic circuit is reconnected, the automatic identification of the date appearing in the window, by optically analysing a code attributed to this date and by memorizing this data by means of the electronic circuit.

Patent GB-9225837-D0 (GB)
Title: Fastener applicator
IPC: B25C1/06
Filed: 1992-12-10
Abstract: A fastener applicator, for example for cable clips, uses the kinetic energy of a flywheel (6) rotated by a prime mover (4), preferably a battery drive electric motor, to drive a striker (8) for firing a fastener into a support. An actuator (7) which strikes the striker (8) may be a fixed projection on the flywheel (6) or be an element on the flywheel movable relative to the flywheel by centrifugal force to project the actuator from an inoperative position to an operative position for striking the striker. The driven from the prime mover (4) to the flywheel (6) is through a clutch or releasable drive coupling (26) which temporarily disconnects the drive when the actuator strikes the strike so that the kinetic energy at the flywheel alone drives the striker and the prime mover is protected from the impact. In a modification a micro-processor measures the rotational speed of the flywheel and stops the prime mover when a pre-determined speed for the necessary kinetic energy is achieved. <IMAGE>
