Abstract: There is disclosed an apparatus and method which is capable of dispensing very small (typically less than 5 mg) quantities of particles to a high accuracy in a repeatable way and without undue wastage. Also, the need for advanced particle formulation is reduced. The apparatus comprises a closed loop control system which uses an electro-mechanical actuator to deliver impact energy to a supply of particles initially held on a sieve in a hopper. The impact energy causes a small number of particles to fall through the sieve and onto a weight measuring balance. The weight obtained is scrutinised by a processor to see if further actuations are required. In preferred embodiments, the energy of actuation is varied in accordance with the rate of dispensation calculated by the processor. Also, a correction amount can be obtained to take account of the fact that the balance can take a considerable amount of time to settle to its final value.

Abstract: An image processing device and method for classifying symbols, such as text, in a video stream employs a back propagation neural network (BPNN) whose feature space is derived from size, translation, and rotation invariant shape-dependent features. Various example feature spaces are discussed such as regular and invariant moments and an angle histogram derived from a Delaunay triangulation of a thinned, thresholded, symbol. Such feature spaces provide a good match to BPNN as a classifier because of the poor resolution of characters in video streams.

Abstract: This invention consists of an inhaler capable of administering
powdered medicaments contained in a capsule. It is formed by a
compartment housing the capsule, inside the cover or the body
of the inhaler, and a cutting element, inside the same cover
or the body. Said element cuts or perforates the capsule,
releasing the substance it contained. The powder falls into a
grid reservoir below that holds the pieces of the case end
lets only the powder pass through. Once the capsule is
inserted into the compartment, it will be sufficient to
activate the cutting device, then place the mouthpiece into
the mouth and breathe in, so that the powdered substance
dispersed into the chamber can reach the lungs. Said inhaler
may be equipped with disposable accessories to be placed into
the mouth, otherwise may be used with specific accessories for
inhaling the substances also by the nose.

Abstract: The procedure consists of heating the drupes in controlled conditions which avoid oxidation of the natural anti-oxidants in the pulp, rapid or quasi-instantaneous evaporation of part of the water contained in the pulp to promote destructuring of the pulp cells and starting the separation of the pulp from the skin and stone. The procedure consists of heating or pre-heating the drupes in controlled conditions which avoid oxidation of the natural anti-oxidants in the pulp, rapid or quasi-instantaneous evaporation of part of the water contained in the pulp to promote destructuring of the pulp cells and starting the separation of the pulp from the skin and stone. This is followed by physical separation of part of the pulp from the stones and skin and recuperation of the destructured pulp to yield oil and a puree. The initial heating takes place in a chamber (20) with microwave heaters (24, 26), followed by a buffer chamber (30) and evaporation chamber (40) with a system (52) for physical separation of part of the pulp. The separated pulp then passes to oil separators and recuperators (160, 170, 172, 174). Other systems separate the skins and stones and press oil from the kernels.
