Title: Composition monitor and monitoring process using impedance measurements
IPC: G01R27/26
Filed: 1989-10-05
Granted: 1993-06-24
Abstract: Radio frequency bridge techniques are used to parameterize the complex dielectric properties of solids, liquids, gasses and mixtures thereof. This parameterization is performed in an electrically isolated, physically open structure which allows continuous or batch monitoring of the materials and their mixtures. A method and apparatus are provided for measuring the composition of mutlicomponent process streams flowing in pipes or ducts. The method uses the pipe in which the mixture flows as a waveguide in which propagating radio frequency electromagnetic energy is induced through dielectric loaded apertures. The dielectric measurement is performed in an electrically isolated, flow through test section which induces constructive or destructive interference patterns at characteristics frequencies. The characteristic frequency determines the dielectric constant of the mixture. The dielectric properties are used in turn to determine mixture composition. A density measurement is also provided for three comiponent strams such as oil, water, and gas. Temperature and pressure measurements are made to correct for temperature and pressure induced variations in calibrated component impedance and density values.

Granted: 2001-03-01
Abstract: A carbohydrate is added to sand, which has been used to make foundry moulds or cores, and which has been bonded using an alkaline resol phenol-formaldehyde resin, prior to reclamation of the sand by a thermal reclamation. The thermal reclamation may be done in other equipment, for example, a rotary thermal reclamation unit, but is preferably done in a fluidized bed reclamation unit. The carbohydrate is preferably water soluble and is added to the used sand as an aqueous solution. The carbohydrate may be for example a monosaccharide, such as glucose, mannose, galactose or fructose, or a disaccharide such as sucrose, maltose or lactose. The carbohydrate may also be a carbohydrate derivative such as a polyhydric alcohol (e.g., ethylene glycol, glycerol, pentaerythritol, xylitol, mannitol or sorbitol), a sugar acid (e.g., gluconic acid), or a polysaccharide derivative (e.g., a starch hydrolysate, i.e., a glucose syrup or a dextrin). The amount of carbohydrate used in the reclamation process is usually of the order of 0.25% to 5.0% by weight based on the weight of used sand.

Title: Improved method of and means for providing information to edit a video tape
Inventor: ROGGENDORF PETER
IPC: G11B27/024
Filed: 1990-05-10
Granted: 1992-07-02
Abstract: A method of and apparatus for editing half-inch tape used for home recording of video material applies pulse-width modulation to prerecorded synchronizing pulses in predetermined time intervals. The interval is started with an eleven-bit header that is compatible with that of a commercially available system known as the VASS system. Time blocks are then encoded by pulse-width modulation with information identifying the particular recording session and the number of elapsed seconds minutes and hours since the beginning of the session. A check code completes the modulation during the interval for television systems such as PAL and SECAM that are adapted for fifty-Hz operation. For systems such as NTSC that operate at sixty Hertz, a ten-bit dummy code is added to complete the two-second interval. The code is entered without writing over the leading edge of the prerecorded synchronizing pulse, allowing the timing of those pulses to continue without interruption. Using this system, an editor can locate any desired interval and can then locate an individual frame within that interval by counting synchronizing pulses. The apparatus of the invention inserts and detects the header, inserts and detects the address code, inserts time signals in sequence, and detects a selected time interval and frame within that interval. An electronic circuit processes signals derived from the tape for input to a microprocessor which controls displays, insertion of codes, and advancing to a chosen edit location.

Granted: 2003-11-27
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to telecommunications, and more specifically to a method and system of providing telecommunication services that is flexible and efficient. Existing Public Switched Telephone Network systems suffer from a number of problems including system complexity, access being proprietary and services being implemented on fixed hardware. As a result, new services are complex and costly to develop, so telcos only provide services that appeal very broadly. The invention provides an open and flexible system by describing communications in terms of graph packets which contain pointers to blocks of software code, rather than containing large blocks of executable code. In the preferred embodiment, these graphs identify software filters which are dedicated to particular tasks, and are based on a standard API. This allows third parties to create new filters and make them available, allowing new services to be provided quickly and easily.
