Title: Induction heated cooktops
Inventor: DUBEDOUT ANTOINE
IPC: H05B6/12
Filed: 1998-06-25
Abstract: In the past, induction heated cooktops were only used with cooking vessels having a conductive bottom. In order to adapt other types of cooking vessel (8) for use with the induction heating principle, an electrically resistive disc (6, 6')is fitted in the top plate (1) in proximity to the induction heating coils (2). The disc (6, 6') heats up because it acts as a load on the induction heating coils, and the heat is carried by conduction to the cooking vessel. The resistive disc (6') may be placed in a depression in the top plate (1). The disc (6') may be removed, ensuring child safety since there will be no heating by accidental turning on.

Title: Bi-periodic optical grating
Inventor: NORMAND FRANCK
IPC: H01Q17/00
Filed: 1998-07-28
Abstract: A bi-periodic grating comprises first zones 3 of a constituent material having a first electrical conductivity and second zones 4 made of complimentary material with a lower electrical conductivity. Both materials have similar complex indices of refraction, and they form a mechanically continuous layer. Preferably, the materials are formed from the same semiconducting material, and the zones are formed by using different concentration of the same dopant. Suitable materials include germanium doped with antimony, silicon doped with boron, phosphorous or arsenic, or gallium arsenide doped with silicon or selenium or tellurium. The grating allows the transmission of optical waves, while reflecting microwaves and absorbing radar. It may be used to faradise an optronic window with respect to at least one frequency band of the Hertzian wave domain.

Patent GB-2346960-A (GB)
Title: An air flow control arrangement
Inventor: BELOE NEIL
IPC: B60H1/00
Filed: 1999-02-16
Abstract: An air flow control arrangement for a motor vehicle ventilation system comprises a plurality of vent members (1; 31) which include flaps (4; 34, 35) and which may have an electrostatic charge induced into them from an electrically conductive core (3; 33). Thus, when a similar polarity electrostatic charge is provided between the flap (4; 34, 35) and a core section (5; 32), the flap (4; 34, 35) is repulsed in order to expose a vent pathway (2; 38, 39) whilst electrostatic charges of an opposite polarity between the flap (4; 34, 35) and the core section (5; 32) results in attraction therebetween in order to close the vent pathway (2; 38, 39). Thus, air flow control through the pathways (2; 38, 39) is achieved without manual manipulation or use of potentially unreliable mechanical actuation.

An endoscope or microscope has a photodetector and a filter to reduce detection of ambient illumination.
Patent GB-2352772-A (GB)
Title: Method of operating a spark-ignition i.c. engine using a series of sparks to promote auto-ignition
Inventor: MA THOMAS TSOI HEI
IPC: F02D41/30
Filed: 1999-08-05
Abstract: A method of operating an internal combustion engine under low and medium load conditions comprises supplying to the engine a fuel and air charge that is not spark ignitable and exposing the charge to a series of sparks during the early part of the compression stroke to create within the charge high energy gas pockets. The sparks promote subsequent auto-ignition of the gases in the high energy pockets towards the end of the compression stroke or during the early part of the power stroke. The fuel/air charge may be rendered non-ignitable by setting a high dilution ratio of air or EGR gases to fuel. The instant at which auto-ignition occurs may be varied by varying the spark voltage, frequency and/or timing. A main ignition spark may be fired near TDC, and a pilot direct injection of rich fuel may be directed towards the spark plug, to ensure combustion in case the high-energy gas pockets do not auto-ignite.

Patent GB-191411286-A (GB)
Abstract: 11,286. Pfoser, A. May 7, 1913, [Convention date]. Forced and induced draught systems; liquid and gaseous fuel furnaces.-To increase the rate of transmission of heat in furnaces generally, the rate of flow of the combustion products is increased to double that hitherto employed, or more. In some cases the result is obtained by increasing the fuel supply; or by reducing the area of the combustion-chamber and heating flues, blowers, fans, or other mea.ns for increasing the draught being employed. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) describes other methods of increasing the rate of flow of combustion products, according to which, in the case of gas-fired furnaces, the gas or air is supplied to the furnace by fans, blowers, or the like through nozzles so as to induce the supply of air or gas. With furnaces burning liquid fuel, the air is forced into the furnace or the gases exhausted by blowers &c. at the increased rate and the liquid fuel supply increased accordingly. In the case of plants with direct firing, the rate of flow of the combustion products may be increased by employing incomplete combustion on the grate and by employing at the back of the grate a nozzle through which sufficient air for complete combustion of the gases is delivered by a fan &c. This subjectmatter does not appear in the Specification as accepted. Specification 18912/13 is referred to.
