Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB91/01390 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 12, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 12, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 15, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/03802 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 5, 1992A digital processor for simulating operation of a parallel processing array incorporates digital processing units (P1 to P8) communicating data to one another via addresses in memories (M0to M8) and registers (R11 to R41). Each processing unit (e.g. P1) is programmed to input data and execute a computation involving updating of a stored coefficient followed by data output. Each computation involves use of a respective set of data addresses for data input and output, and each processing unit (e.g. P1) is programmed with a list of such sets employed in succession by that unit. On reaching the end of its list, the processing unit (e.g. P1) repeats it. Each address set is associated with a conceptual internal cell location in the simulated array (10), and each list is associated with a respective sub-array of the simulated array (10). Data is input cyclically to the processor (40) via input/output ports (I/O5 to I/O8) of some of the processing units (P5 to P8). Each processing unit (e.g. P1) executes its list of address sets within a cycle at a rate of one address set per subcycle. At the end of its list, each of the processing units (P1 to P8) has executed the functions associated with a conceptual respective sub-array of simulated cells (12), and the processor (40) as a whole has simulated operation of one cycle of a systolic array (10). Repeating the address set lists with further processor input provides successive simulated array cycles.

Abstract: A multifunctional device for use in an endoscopically performed operative procedure of the type where a narrow portal is established through the skin to provide access to an operative site and the multifunctional device is introduced to the operative site through the narrow portal. The multifunctional device is formed of an absorbent material, preferably expandable, having a substantially rigid dry state prior to introduction to the operative site and a soft, flexible wet state after absorbing fluids. The absorbent material can be formed with a spine therein of either a continuous or a discontinuous, segmented construction, and the spine can be branched and tubular or solid. The absorbent material can have portions or segments thereof expandable to different sizes to produce rounded protuberances to facilitate manipulation at the operative site and can have predetermined, non-straight configurations in the wet state, the predetermined configurations being controlled by the spine in the absorbent material or the method of forming the absorbent material. The multifunctional device can have a passage therethrough to accommodate laser, electrosurgical, biopsy or culturing instruments.

Abstract: The invention relates to a central pillar for the bodywork of a passenger car, especially bodywork in which the bearing structure consists of extruded section bearers and light-metal joining components. According to the invention, the conical central pillar is made not of sheet-metal but at least partly of an extruded section (1) and/or light-metal castings. In a preferred embodiment, in order to produce a conical shape, section chambers (3 to 8) of a multi-chamber extruded section are cut in steps over their height. It is also possible to make recesses for free spaces, especially for the fitting of locks and hinges, by cutting section chambers. In further embodiments, central pillars are produced by the jointing of extruded sections with sheet metal components or castings.

Abstract: A differential latching inverter uses a pair of cross-coupled inverters having a skewed voltage transfer function to rapidly sense a differential signal on a pair of bit lines in a random access memory and provide high speed sensing during a read operation. The differential latching inverter may also include a pair of symmetrical transfer function output inverters and additional pull-up circuits to enhance high speed operation. The differential latching inverter may be used in a memory architecture having primary bit lines and signal bit lines, with a differential latching inverter being connected to each pair of signal bit lines. The primary bit lines and signal bit lines are coupled to one another during read and write operations and decoupled from one another otherwise. The read and write operations may be internally timed without the need for external clock pulses in response to a high speed address change detection system, and internal timing signals generated by delay ring segment buffers. A high speed, low power random access memory may thereby be provided.

Abstract: Chewing gum products and other comestibles containing indigestible dextrin and methods of making such products are disclosed. In one embodiment, the indigestible dextrin is used in a rolling compound applied to the chewing gum product. In a second embodiment, the indigestible dextrin is used in a coating, such as a hard-shell coating, for a pellet gum. In a third embodiment, indigestible dextrin is used in the center fill of a chewing gum. In a fourth embodiment, aspartame is used to sweeten the gum composition, and indigestible dextrin is provided in an effective amount to stabilize the aspartame such that after eight weeks of storage at 85  DEG F, at least 10 % more aspartame remains undecomposed than would have remained if the indigestible dextrin were not included. Indigestible dextrin is also codried with other sweeteners, coevaporated to make syrups and used as an encapsulating agent for high-intensity sweeteners used in gum compositions. Also, indigestible dextrin that has been purified to remove fermentable components is used to make chewing gum and other confections.

Abstract: A tube switch for a double-cylinder sludge pump is provided including a swing pipe, a wearing ring and an elastic member. The swing pipe is adapted to swivel in front of a center plate and includes an extension portion having an inner surface. The wearing ring is supported between the end of the swing pipe and the center plate and is axially movable relative to the swing pipe. The wearing ring has a recess formed at one end thereof, defined by a sloped boundary surface. The swing pipe is adapted to receive the end of the wearing ring including the recess therein. The recess thus defines an annular space between the swing pipe and the wearing ring with the inner surface of the extension portion of the swing pipe facing the annular space. The elastic member includes a radial inner surface and a sloped front end surface that corresponds to the boundary surface of the wearing ring. The elastic member is supported between the swing pipe and the wearing ring within the annular space. The front end surface of the elastic member abuts the boundary surface of the wearing ring. The inner surface of the extension portion of the swing pipe is ridgeless such that generally no portion of the swing pipe contacts the radial inner portion of the elastic member.

Abstract: A gas-liquid separating apparatus capable of sufficiently separating gas in gas-liquid mixture fluid from liquid therein, is disclosed. Gas-liquid mixture fluid fed from a boiler evaporator tube enters through a separator inlet 15 into a cylinder 9 of a separator 12 in a tangential direction, thus becomes a rotating flow 8 along the inner wall surface of the cylinder 9, and thereby centrifugal separation between gas and liquid is effected. The separated steam is discharged from a secondary separator 11 through a cap 18 into a gas-phase section within a drum 1. A part of the primary isolated water 8 of the rotating flow has its outflow velocity decelerated by a perforated plate 23, and thereafter flows out to a liquid-phase section within the drum 1. As a result, a flow velocity of the primary isolated water 20 flowing out through a primary isolated water outlet 17 to the liquid-phase section within the drum 1 is decreased as compared to the case where the prior art was employed, and hence, an amount of the primary isolated water drawn into a flow 22 within the drum is reduced. Moreover, since the primary isolated water 21 having flowed out through the perforated plate 23 to the liquid-phase section within the drum 1 has a slow outflow velocity, it becomes an upward blow in the vicinity of the cylinder 9 due to influence of a buoyancy acting upon a steam component. Accordingly, the time available for gravitational separation of gas and liquid in the liquid phase within the drum 1 can be reserved longer than in the case of employing the prior art. <IMAGE>
