Title: Apparatus and method for including codes in audio signals
Inventor: GRAYBILL ROBERT B
IPC: H04H20/31
Filed: 1995-03-27
Abstract: The present invention generally concerns the inclusion of inaudible or masked codes in audio signals. In one embodiment the non-simultaneous (or temporal) masking ability of an audio signal is evaluated and on the basis of this evaluation amplitudes are assigned to the frequency components of a code to ensure they are adequately masked by the audio signal. The masking may be backwards or forwards, i.e. the masking signal occurs temporally before or after the code respectively. Tonal, narrow band or broad band masking techniques may be used. The ability of different masking techniques to mask the code may be evaluated and the most suitable technique selected. Alternatively, different masking evaluations may be performed for individual code frequency components. Decoders for extracting the codes are also disclosed. Applications include using the codes for radio or television program identification and a system for producing audience size estimates.

Title: Pallet for automated stack processing
Inventor: HUMMEL PETER
IPC: B65H1/30
Filed: 1996-05-03
Abstract: To improve the handling of pallets in connection with logistical systems on sheet processing graphics machines (Fig.2), it is proposed to use pallets (11) with bars (13) and grooves (14) for the automated longitudinal insertion of bar- or rake-like auxiliary pile lifting devices (15,16). Thereby, it is possible that depending upon need, the grooves (14) can be freed or closed so that a flat pile surface arises on the pallets (11).  The bars 13 are cut short at at least one end of the pallet so that the web 15 of the infill element 12 can fit flush on the pallet and form a substantially complete top surface. The infill element 12 is usually raised to hold a depleted stack (Fig 2), the rest of the pallet 11 being removed and replaced with a new stack. The removed pallet part 11 can be used to support the start of a stack of processed sheets with the infill element added once the new and depleted stacks have been combined (Fig 2).

Patent GB-190017072-A (GB)
Abstract: 17,072. Felsenstein, J. Sept. 25. Stoppers. - The closure is effected by the cork 2, which is mounted in the metal holder 1, and is seated on the mouth of the bottle &c., as shown in Fig. 2, or on shoulders 20, 21, as shown in Fig. 8. The shoulders may be replaced by an inclined seating. The neck and holder 1 are formed with corresponding flattened or other surfaces 7, to prevent the rotation of the holder when it is seated on the neck. The upper end of the holder is screw-threaded to engage with corresponding threads on the lower end of the metal casing 3, the threads being normally held in position for engagement by the spring 3<x>, Fig. 2. The wire yoke 9 rests in a recess in the top of the casing, and its arms are bent to conform to the threads, beneath which the arms pass through the lateral lugs 11 on the casing. The lower ends 9<x> of the arms are bent and passed through the metal band 13, which is secured by a bent tongue and eye in the annular recess 14 in the neck, the ends resting in the narrower recess 15. By rotating the casing and yoke, the bottle &c. is closed, as shown in Fig. 2, or opened, as shown in Fig. 4. The lower edge 6 of the casing is bent inwards to form a stop for the holder. In the form shown in Fig. 8, the holder 1 projects through the open upper end of the casing 24, and is formed with a milled head 32. In this case, the cork can be partially seated by rotating the holder, and tightened on its seat by rotating the casing. The yoke connections are also somewhat modified.

Title: Harrow, in particular foldable harrow
Inventor: SCHWEIGER GEORG

Filed: 1992-11-20
Abstract: In a harrow (1) having a large working width, the lateral outer parts of the harrow are folded up into a transport position around folding axes (16a, 16b). In order to protect the joints (14a, 14b) against excessive stresses caused by bending moments, the carrying frame (10) of the harrow (1) is provided with front and rear cross-beams (11 and 12), of which at least the front cross-beam (11) laterally extends beyond the joints (14a, 14b) of the traction beam (3) and is itself provided with joints (14c, 14d), so that it can also be folded. The front cross-beam (11), which is stiffened against bending moments, protects the traction beam (3) in the manner of a bumper or fender. If required, it also absorbs movements contrary to the traction direction (16c) by means of chain sections (15) with which in particular the outer part of the traction beam (3) is suspended from the adjacent outer part (11b, 11c) of the cross-beam. The cross-beam is stiffened by longitudinal members (20a, 20b) that support the outer parts (11b, 11c) of the cross-beam and whose base on the rear cross-beam (12) is in turn braced by traction members (23a, 23b) with respect to the three-point suspension (8) of the tractor (9), so that it cannot move in the opposite direction to the direction of traction (16c).

Title: Method and device for calculating area and face retrieving device
Inventor: IMAZEKI OSAMU
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1997-01-23
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily calculate an area of a part common to members of a structure in a short time by obtaining the area of the common part in each small area and obtaining areas of common parts by addition. SOLUTION: It is discriminated whether there is a probability that two faces have a common part or not (601). The condition of decision is that the inner product of unit normal vectors of two faces is '-1' and apex coordinates of one face exist on the other face. If there is a probability that they have a common part, planes on a three-dimensional space are mapped on a two-dimensional plane (602), and at this time, apex coordinates are so rearranged that they are counterclockwise on an outline and are clockwise on an aperture part outline. The area of the common part is calculated (603). Common parts are searched with respect to faces of all members in a building; and when search is terminated (604), areas of end fall faces of members are calculated to terminate the processing. If faces left unsearched exist, the control is returned to the step 601 to repeat the processing.
