Title: Method and device for opening printed products
Inventor: BENZ MARC-ANDREAS
IPC: B65H5/30
Filed: 2010-06-25
Abstract: In a method and a device for opening printed products (26), folded printed products (20) are held on a back (28) and transported. Thereby, they are aligned at an edge region (44) lying opposite the back (28), for example by way of co-running lugs (98').  Subsequently, the edge region (44) is encompassed by a holding element (50) and held in a preferably loose manner.  Preferably, the uppermost sheet of the printed product (26) is gripped with a revolving opening element (72) engaging on the printed product (26) behind the edge region (44), and pulled out of the holding element (50), whilst the remaining sheet or the remaining sheets of the printed product (26) remain in the holding element (50). After moving a holding open element (102) into the printed product (26) opened in such a manner, the holding element (50) moves away to the bottom and thus the edge region (44) of the printed product (26) slips out of the holding element (50).

IPC: H02J7/02
Filed: 2010-07-09
Abstract: There is provided an electrical charger including a charger assembly and a locking assembly. The charger assembly includes a base unit configured for being electrically coupled to an electronic device, and an adaptor unit configured for being electrically coupled to a power supply. The locking assembly includes at least one operative detent member. There is provided a locked state, wherein the base unit is disposed in an electrical coupling relationship with the adaptor unit and movement of the base unit relative to the adaptor unit, such that the base unit becomes disposed in an electrically uncoupled relationship with the adaptor unit, is resisted. There is also provided an unlocked state wherein the base unit is moveable relative to the adaptor unit. In the locked state, each one of the at least one operative detent member is biased into an interference relationship with the charger assembly so as to resist the relative movement between the base unit and the adaptor unit which would effect the electrical uncoupling of the base unit from the adaptor unit. In the unlocked state, the locking assembly co-operates with the charger assembly such that the base unit is moveable relative to the adaptor unit. Application of a respective minimum predetermined force is required to effect a change in state from one of the locked state and the unlocked state to the other one of the locked state and the unlocked state.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for increasing the concentration of colonies of micro organisms formed on the surface of Gramineas bambusoideae in a continuous flow and/or batch process which utilizes biomass as a filtering means to remove nitrates and other organic and inorganic contaminants from water reservoirs and from domestic and/or industrial effluents, in which a step of adsorption is followed by a step of biological degradation by anaerobic digestion of micro organisms of the types Psevdonomas SP (Azobacter, Azotomas, Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococus, Nitrobacter, and Rhixobium). According to the invention, the addition of about 200 - 300 ppm of sodium acetate to the solution fed to the reactor, while maintaining a relation of 2:1 C:N, provides an efficiency increase of 80% to 98% regarding the removal of nitrates as well as organic and inorganic soluble matter from the water.

Inventor: DRUNECKY TOMAS
IPC: A61L27/36
Filed: 2008-10-17
Abstract: The subject of the invention is a sterile, dehydrated acellular implant, which during its rehydration by water or bodily fluids displays anisotropic expansion and can act as a substrate for adhesion, migration and growth of live cells. Collagen structures of the transplant are at least partially denatured through the action of heat or organic solvents, such as lower aliphatic al-cohols and ketones, which simultaneously act as preservative and sterilization agents, especially for certain types of viruses. The implant is sterilized by radiation while in an substantially dehydrated state, preferably by accelerated electrons. The transplant can be derived from various animal tissues, especially mammalian tissues, such as human or porcine tissues. The tissues suitable for the invention can be, for example, skin, placenta, pericardium, peritoneum, intestinal wall, tendon, blood vessel, etc. The implant is suitable for use in human and veterinary medicine, for instance as a temporary wound and burn cover, for the repair, substitu-tion and regeneration of tissues, and also as a substrate for laboratory cell cultivation.

Abstract: A method and system for calibrating optical reader systems employs a target with areas comprising linear gray scale levels. The gray scale levels include the darkest and the lightest scenes. The gray scale levels are illuminated by an array of LEDs and the light reflected from target impacts photo-transistors. The photo-transistors are biased in their linear ranges and the target is scanned while the LED drive current is changed.  The photo-transistor responses to the different gray scale levels at the different LED drive currents are analyzed, and the LED drive current that produces a linear output from the photo-transistors over the gray scale dynamic range is selected. Several video channels may be used and their offsets and gains are normalized. Black offsets and black to white gain correction functions are generated for balancing or correcting each pixel. The correction functions may be applied by a processor for later raw image data of scenes scanned by the optical reader.

Abstract: A selective encryption encoder consistent with certain embodiments of the invention has vertical and/or horizontal stripes encrypted. In one embodiment, packets are examined in the digital video signal to identify a specified packet type, the specified packet type being both packets carrying intra-coded data representing a pattern of horizontal stripes across an image and packets carrying intra-coded data representing a pattern of vertical stripes across an image. The packets identified as being of the specified packet type are encrypted using a first encryption method to produce first encrypted packets. These first encrypted packets are then used to replace the unencrypted packets in the digital video signal to produce a partially encrypted video signal. The packets of the specified type can also be multiple encrypted and replaced in the data stream to produce a multiple encrypted video data stream.
