Title: Flexible extension shaft for a screwdriver
IPC: B25G1/02
Filed: 1989-09-13
Abstract: A cordless portable electric screwdriver (10) 
having a chuck (12) for normally holding a tool (14) for 
rotary driven motion at one end (16) thereof. The 
screwdriver includes a flexible extension shaft (18) 
having a first end (20) adapted to cooperate with the 
chuck (12) and a second end (22) adapted to hold the 
tool (14) for rotary driven motion. The first end (20) 
of the flexible extension shaft (18) and the chuck (12) 
have complementarily shaped non-circular cross-sections. 
The chuck (12) has an axis and is adapted to receive the 
first end (20) of the flexible shaft (18) by means of 
axial insertion of the shaft (18) into the chuck (12) 
with the non-circular cross-sections in rotationally 
aligned relationship and the chuck (12) is also adapted 
to hold the first end (20) of the flexible extension 
shaft (18) for rotary driven motion of the shaft (18). 
The second end (22) of the flexible extension shaft (18) 
and the tool (14) have complementarily shaped non-­
circular cross-sections. The screwdriver (10) is 
operable to drive the tool (14) by reason of the second 
end (22) of the flexible shaft (18) holding the tool 
(14) for rotary driven motion thereof. With this 
arrangement, the flexible extension shaft (18) normally 
is disposed so as to be substantially entirely coaxial 
with the chuck (12) but is universally deflectable 
relative to the axis of the chuck (12) so as to position 
the second end (22) of the shaft (18) and the tool (14) 
at an acute angle relative thereto.

Title: 4g-alfa-d-glucopyranosyl rutin, and its preparation and uses
IPC: A61K8/00
Filed: 1990-03-07
Abstract: A novel glycoside, 4<G>-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl rutin, is formed by a saccharide-transferring enzyme and glucoamylase in a solution which contains rutin together with glucoamylase. The 4<G>-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl rutin formed in such a solution is purified with a synthetic macroreticular resin, and crystallization in an organic solvent yields a complex crystal with the organic solvent. 4<G>-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl rutin exhibits the same molecular absorption coefficient as intact rutin has, and is readily water-soluble, substantially tasteless and odorless, and readily hydrolyzable in vivo to exhibit physiological activities inherent to rutin. These render 4<G>-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl rutin very useful as a highly-safe, natural yellow coloring agent, antioxidant, stabilizer, quality-improving agent, preventive, remedy, uv-absorbent and deterioration-preventing agent in foods, beverages, tobaccos, cigarets, feeds, pet foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and plastics.

Patent EP-0427433-A3 (EP)
Title: Radiant electric heaters
IPC: H05B3/74
Filed: 1990-10-29
Abstract: A radiant electric heater (10) has two coiled resistance wire heating elements (22,24) each connected to one terminal (N) of a power supply via respective rectifiers. These rectifiers are each made up of two like-poled arms of a bridge rectifier (34) connected in parallel, and they are arranged to allow current through one heating element (22) on positive-going half-cycles of the power supply waveform, and through the other heating element (24) on negative-going half-cycles. The elements are rated for continuous power dissipation under these circumstances. A PTC thermistor (36) is connected between the ends of the heating elements connected to the rectifiers. Optionally an NTC thermistor (40) can be connected in series with the PTC thermistor. Upon initial energisation the PTC thermistor is a near short-circuit, so current flows through both heating elements on both polarity half-cycles, dissipating twice their rated power. The elements increase in temperature more quickly than if they were initially energised at only their rated power, so the visible response of the elements to energisation is faster. Meanwhile the PTC thermistor increases in resistance owing to self-heating, thereby removing the short-circuit after a few seconds, reducing the power dissipation in the elements to its normal level and protecting them from excessive operating temperatures.

Title: Methode for production of an optical cable
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1991-12-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of an optical cable (OC), in which in each case a group of optical waveguides are mechanically combined to form a band (BD), this band subsequently being subjected to a stranding operation. The optical waveguides (LW1-LW4) are subjected to pretorsion in the formation of the band. The subsequent stranding operation is carried out in such a way that the stranding torsion occurring in the process is directed opposite to the pretorsion of the optical fibres, so that the resulting torsion of the optical fibres (LW1-LW4) in the finished cable (OC) is reduced.

Patent EP-0571923-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06K7/10
Filed: 1993-05-24
Abstract: The camera system (10, 100) of the present invention simultaneously searches for a number of differing optical acquisition targets (44). Upon detecting an acquisition target (44) it decodes according to corresponding differing decoding algorithms. To facilitate this operation there is a system bus (170) as well as a dedicated data bus (172) for applying a scan signal of an optical scanning device (154) to differing detection circuitry. This system may decode, for example, both bar codes and concentric rings. The scan signal is constantly adjusted according to both a dark reference for correcting offset and a white reference for correcting gain. The gain is also corrected according to the scanning rate as well as the amount of illumination present. A measure of this illumination may be applied directly to the optical scanning device (154) by way of a fiber optic cable (402) which transmits light from the illumination source (15). When detecting concentric rings the system of the present invention uses stored templates which represent a number of transformations of the target (44), for example, a number of magnifications. When the transformation of a target (44) is determined, the corresponding stored template is correlated with the scan signal from the optical scanning device (154). To detect concentric rings the scan signal is applied to interleaving circuitry (180) which correlates more than one scan at a time to provide constant throughput even though the stages of the detector operate at different speeds. Optical calibration is eliminated by fixed optics wherein all optical elements are rigidly mounted at very close tolerances. The illumination source (15) is disposed on one focus (22) of an ellipse (18) wherein the other focus (24) is disposed at the maximum scanning distance and the reflector (14) is formed to define the illumination ellipse (18) to maximize the light applied to the object (42). The various heat producing elements are disposed in sealed compartments (40a,c) which are cooled by forced air which is circulated through a heat exchanger. A real time focusing system (500) is provided wherein the distance from the scanning device (154) to an opposing surface (20, 42) is constantly monitored and the system is constantly focused according to the distance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for automatically transferring customer data among a plurality of central office
switches comprises receiving (202) a work order message from a central provisioning system at a
message directing switch. The message directing switch is in communication with at least one
message receiving switch in a local telecommunication network. Upon determining (204,211,212,216,218) that a
particular work order message received from a central provisioning system requires a
coordinated data exchange, a data query is formulated in the message directing switch to retrieve (222)
specific data, such as data relating to a customer directory number from a message receiving
switch. Once the data is received (226) in the message directing switch, the data is processed (230) and
retained in the message directing switch or delivered to another switch in the
telecommunications network. The method and system alleviates the need for manual retrieval
and installation of specific customer line data when a directory number is moved from one
central office switch to another.
