Title: High sensitivity particle detection
Inventor: BELL KENNETH FRAZER
IPC: G01N21/53
Filed: 2001-09-25
Granted: 2005-04-06
Abstract: A smoke detector is shown in which blue light is directed through a scattering volume ( 9 ) from a radiation emitter ( 3 ) and infra-red radiation is also directed through the scattering volume ( 9 ) from an infra-red source ( 3 A). Radiation forward-scattered by any particles in the scattering volume ( 9 ) is directed by a mirror ( 13 ) onto a photodiode ( 15 ) which produces an output to control means ( 16 ). The emitters ( 3,3 A) are pulsed at different frequencies, enabling the control means ( 16 ) to produce separate signals ( 21,23 ) corresponding respectively to the scattered blue light and the scattered infra-red radiation. For smoke particles, significantly more blue light is scattered than infra-red radiation, but this is not so much the case for non-smoke particles. A comparator ( 25 ) takes the ratio of the two signals ( 21,23 ) to produce a smoke-dependent warning output. In order to reduce power consumption and increase the life of the blue light emitter ( 3 ), the apparatus normally operates in a monitoring mode in which the infra-red emitter ( 3 A) is pulsed intensively but at a low flashing rate, and the blue light emitter ( 3 ) is maintained inoperative, until infra-red radiation scattered by particles in the volume ( 9 ) cause the photodiode ( 15 ) to produce a sufficient output, whereupon the blue light emitter ( 3 ) is rendered operative.

Title: Hybrid motor vehicle with sequential gearshift lever
Inventor: KAMICHI KENSUKE
IPC: B60W10/08
Filed: 2006-02-09
Granted: 2008-08-06
Abstract: In response to an upshift of a gearshift position SP in a sequential gearshift range, the drive control of the invention once lowers the rotation speed Ne of an engine. This variation in rotation speed of the engine enables the driver to have adequate gear change feeling, which is similar to the familiar gear change feeling in a conventional motor vehicle equipped with a stepped automatic transmission. Namely the drive control of the invention effectively prevents the driver from feeling something is wrong.

Title: Spray dried base beads and detergent composition
IPC: C11D7/00
Filed: 1982-02-26
Granted: 1984-11-21
Abstract: Free flowing spray dried beads which are useful as a detergent or for the manufacture of a particulate built synthetic nonionic organic detergent composition include water softening aluminosilicate (such as a zeolite), bentonite and water soluble builder, and may also include water soluble synthetic organic detergent and a small proportion of water soluble silicate, although such silicate is preferably omitted. The beads can be made to be of a bulk density within a broad range, and the bulk density may be varied by control of the bead formula and by modification of spray drying conditions. The base beads and detergent compositions formulated with them are of reduced aluminosilicate deposition characteristics, due to the presence of bentonite and the absence of or presence of only a low content of water soluble silicate, with the bead composition being maintained within given ranges. The moisture content of the beads will be such as to maintain at least 2% and preferably 3% or 4% or more of moisture in the bentonite so that its normal swelling power is retained, because the swelling of the bentonite is considered to be important in dispersing the beads in wash water and also, even more importantly, in helping to prevent aluminosilicate agglomeration and objectionable deposition thereof on materials washed, and in helping to break up any minor proportion of such agglomerates which might be formed.

Title: Error concealment in digital television signals

Granted: 1985-11-27
Abstract: A method of concealing errors in a digital television signal formed by a plurality of sample signals corresponding respectively to sample positions S-3, S-2, S-1, S0, S1, S2, S3, etc. along a horizontal scan line of a television picture made up of a plurality of such lines n-1, n, n+1, etc., comprises, in respect of each sample signal which is in error, selecting from a plurality of algorithms a preferred algorithm for correcting the error sample signal, calculating a corrected value of the error sample signal using the preferred algorithm, and substituting the corrected sample signal for the error sample signal so as to conceal the error. The algorithms may be four in number and use sample values located along the directions A, B, C and D respectively to predict the known sample values at sample positions adjacent to the position of the error sample signal, the algorithm giving the best result being selected. When the density of other error sample signals in the neighbourhood of the error sample signal prevents selection of the preferred algorithm, the sample signal from a predetermined or a selected position in the television picture adjacent to the position of the error sample signal is substituted for the error sample signal so as to conceal the error.

Filed: 1984-06-21
Granted: 1986-04-30
Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for producing a synthetic multifilament yarn having the appearance, bulk and hand characteristics normally associated with spun yarns of staple fibers. The yarn is air jet textured to form loops, coils, bows and the like in the filaments, and at least some of the projecting loops, coils, and bows are enlarged or parted by advancing and looping the yarn around one or more rotating rollers, such that the portion of the yarn running onto the roller overlaps and contacts the portion of the yarn leaving the roller and thereby clampingly engages the projecting loops, coils, bows and the like of the leaving yarn portion. The efficiency of the process may be controlled by varying the number of rollers, as well as the yarn tension during the parting operation.

Abstract: In one aspect the purpose of the apparatus is to create a magnetic field suitable for the conditioning of security targets comprising small spring steel strips with a long permalloy backing of the type normally used in library books. This apparatus suitably comprises a row of coils which are energised progressively along the row in a time overlapped sequence. This creates a magnetic field at any point above the coils which remains substantially parallel to the target whilst the field strength decays from a magnetically saturating value to below a strength at which it has significant influence on the condition of the steel strips. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1998-11-07
Granted: 2001-01-10
Abstract: A detector receiver circuit (2) for use as a wake-up detector for detecting an amplitude modulated carrier signal is described. The circuit (2) comprises: an antenna (4) for receiving the modulated carrier signal; a transistor (10), such as an FET, is connected to the antenna (4) and configured to operate as a detector of modulation of the carrier frequency. The circuit further comprises a resonator circuit (12-16) which is also connected to the transistor and configured such that the transistor (10) can simultaneously oscillate at substantially the modulation frequency; an oscillator quenching means (20) for periodically quenching oscillation of the transistor (10) and means (26, 28, 30) for sensing the characteristics of the build-up of oscillation to indicate the presence of a modulated carrier signal. How quickly the magnitude of oscillation of the transistor (10) builds up is dependent on whether the antenna is receiving a carrier signal which is modulated at the frequency of self-oscillation of the transistor and this is utilized to detect for the presence of a valid wake-up signal.

IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1992-05-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to the identification and purification of a herpes protease and a nucleic acid segment coding for two proteins. The first protein is the herpes protease which is able to cleave itself and also cleave the second protein. This protease is required for the assembly of the herpes virus capsid, therefore is essential for replication. The second protein has previously been designated as the family of proteins in viral infected cells, ICP35. The protease and its substrates are encoded by overlapping nucleic acid segments. This invention also relates to a promoter sequence for the second protein. Methods are presented of producing a viral protease, screening a protease inhibitor which may be used in a drug designed for the treatment of herpes disease, methods for treating herpes and other viral infections wherein the virus employs a protease substantially similar to the herpes protease, for capsid production. Methods for detecting herpes infections and other viral infections are also disclosed.
