Abstract: A molded case circuit breaker includes a generally "Z" shaped intermediate latch
structure which has upper and lower substantially planar sections that are each bent at
an angle with respect to a center pivot section. The upper portion of the intermediate
latch includes one or two latch surfaces. One of these latch surfaces engages the cradle
of the operating mechanism of the circuit breaker, to latch the operating mechanism
when the circuit breaker is closed. The other latch surface engages a trip bar or an
intermediate latch bar, which is rotated by the trip unit when an overcurrent condition
occurs. The lower portion of the intermediate latch structure also includes a latch
surface which may engage a trip bar. This latch surface is sloped such that when the
latch surface of the trip bar is moved along this sloped latch surface, the trip bar rotates.
This rotation of the trip bar adjusts the spacing between the trip bar and a bimetallic
strip or magnetic armature of a thermal and magnetic trip unit to allow the rating of the
circuit breaker to be changed in the field. The pivot portion of the intermediate latch
structure includes two mounting tabs, one on either side of the latch. The mounting tabs
have a generally rectangular cross-section and, due to the angled relationship between
the pivot portion and the upper and lower portions of the intermediate latch, the latch
pivots on an edge of the mounting tabs. This edge is aligned with an angular opening in
the mechanical frame to mount the intermediate latch. The mounting tabs also retain a
biasing spring which biases the intermediate latch toward the cradle and biases the trip
bar or latch bar toward the intermediate latch.

Abstract: An MRI technique in which the similarity of
samples from different portions of a body is
determined and displayed. In one embodiment, the
method can be used to track the spread of a known
primary tumor to other portions of a patient's body.
The MRI apparatus is used to produce a training set
comprising one or more training samples. The training
set is formed from a plurality of congruent first
images of a training region of the body. Each first
image is produced using an MRI pulse sequence
different from the pulse sequences used to produce the
other first images. Each first image comprises an
array of pixels, and each training sample comprises a
spatially aligned set of pixels from each first image.
The same technique is used to produce a plurality of
test samples corresponding to a test region of the
same body. The test samples are produced using the
same pulse sequences as the training samples. The
training and test samples are then compared, to
produce similarity data indicating, for each sample,
the degree of similarity between the test sample and
the training samples. A display is then generated
based upon the similarity data.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided in which
silver ions are removed from a photographic fixer
solution in a simple and efficient manner. The
electrical conductivity of the solution is measured,
which is effectively that of the fixer (thiosulphate).
The electrical potential of the solution is measured

predetermined algorithm is applied to the two values
to determine the silver ion concentration. If this is
above a predetermined level, a silver recovery unit is
activated. The measurements allow this unit to
operate more efficiently than hithertobefore.

Abstract: Matched digital-to-analog conversions are performed in which, in each of N
parallel channels, a digital input word is converted into a corresponding analog
output. A digital sequence is generated, a rime-varying analog signal having a
predetermined relationship to the digital sequence is generated in response to the
digital sequence, and the digital sequence and the time-varying analog signal are
distributed to the N parallel channels. In each of the N parallel channels, the digital
input word is digitally compared with the digital sequence, and, when the digital
sequence is numerically equal to the digital input word, the rime-varying analog
signal is sampled to provide the analog output. The single time-varying analog signal
derived from the single digital sequence at an operational speed at which high
accuracy and low power consumption can be easily attained enables well-matched
digital-to-analog conversions to be performed in any number of channels ranging
from a few to many thousands.
