Abstract: A spirally or convolutely wound multi-layer tube includes one or more
plies or layers that have embossments formed therein and projecting from one or
both sides of each such ply or layer. The embossments increase the effective
caliper and volume of the ply without adding mass. 
The tube is formed by spirally winding a plurality of plies (10,12,14,16,18)
onto an elongate stationary mandrel (20) of circular cylindrical form. The
invention is applicable to tubes having as few as one and as many as 25 or
more plies. Plies (10,12) are spirally wound in that order onto the mandrel
(20) and adhesive is applied by an adhesive applicator (22) to the inward-facing
surface of the second ply (12) to adhere the plies (10,12) together to form
a tube on the mandrel. Downstream of the winding belt (24), the plies (14,16,18)
are spirally wound onto the advancing tube, and adhesive applicators (26,28,30)
respectively apply adhesive to these plies to adhere them to one another
and to the ply (12), thus forming an integral tube (40). 
The ply (14) is passed through an in-line embosser (32) to emboss the ply. Thus,
the ply (14) is drawn from a supply roll (not shown) as an ordinary unembossed
ply and is embossed in the embosser (32) as the ply is being advanced to the
mandrel (20). Alternatively, an embossed ply could be prepared beforehand
and could be supplied in the form of a roll of embossed material. 
Alternatively the tube is formed by convolutely winding a single ply.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit capable of protection from card hacking, by which erroneous actions are actively induced by irradiation with light and protected secret information is illegitimately acquired, is to be provided. Photodetectors, configured by a standard logic process, hardly distinguishable from other circuits and consumes very little standby power, are mounted on a semiconductor integrated circuit, such as an IC card microcomputer. Each of the photodetectors, for instance, has a configuration in which a first state is held in a static latch by its initializing action and reversal to a second state takes place when semiconductor elements in a state of non-conduction, constituting the static latch of the first state, is irradiated with light. A plurality of photodetectors are arranged in a memory cell array. By incorporating the static latch type photodetector into the memory array, they can be arranged inconspicuously. Reverse engineering by irradiation with light can be effectively prevented.

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly (1) for use as an aluminium door nose (2) for mounting on live (3) and slave door parts of a French door (5). The locking means two spaced shoot bolts (9) and an intermediate latch (10) all operated on rotation of the handle means which, by suitable mechanism including a bodily reciprocable shiftable elongate member (13), is operable to both latch and lock the live (3) and slave (4) door parts together. To that end, the elongate member (13) has spaced blind holes (14) in the form of through apertures, which are in the lockable position aligned with their respective associated shoot bolts (9). 
     The member (13) defines the through apertures (14). When the handle is turned to latch the slave door via the latch (10), this action "throws" the elongate member. 
     If the latching action is properly achieved, the apertures (14) are aligned with the associated shoot bolts (9), and the bolts (9) are then actuated to be shot and to engage behind keepers in the French door, so locking the door parts (3,4) together. If latching is not properly achieved, then the member (13) is not thrown far enough to clear the bolts (9), which then are prevented from being thrown by abutment means forming part of the rear surface of the member (13) adjacent the respective apertures. The door parts (3,4) thus remain clearly unlocked until the latch is properly engaged, which allows the bolts (9) to be shot and the French doors locked securely.

Abstract: In the locking method for a window's outer sash according to the invention the
outer sash is locked into a stationary position by pressing the outer sash with the aid
of a locking member against a frame profile on the outer surface of the window's
frame. As the locking member the method utilises a lock fitting, which comprises a
side part (10) substantially entirely countersunk into the window frame and a movable
inner part (12) arranged within the side part. The side part contains a cylindrical
wall (14) and a flange (16) at the end of the wall. The inner part has on one surface
a disk-like piston (28) with a turning handle (30) for moving the inner part. By
rotating the turning handle the inner part can be moved into an upper position where
the turning handle is substantially entirely outside the side part, and into a lower position
where the turning handle is substantially entirely within the side part. When
the inner part is in the upper position, the end of the turning handle rests on the
outer sash thereby preventing the sash from opening in the direction of the lock fitting.
When one wants to open the window the inner part is moved into the side part,
whereby the sash can be freely opened. In order to raise and lower the inner part the
side part's wall has at least one groove (18) and the inner part has a pin (34) arranged
in the groove and arranged to move within the groove. Thus a rotation of the
turning handle causes the inner part to move in the direction of the central axis of
the side part, guided by the pin and the groove. A lock fitting according to the invention
is mounted in a circular mounting hole drilled in the window's frame.

Abstract: A video-coding device and a video-decoding device, which are capable of assuring the necessary quality of a video sequence even if a transmission error and/or a loss of information occurs in a transmission line and preventing the propagation of decoding error to subsequent images, and can effectively retransmit the necessary coded information when a transmission error and/or a loss of information occurs in a transmission line. A motion-compensated interframe-predicting portion (301) predicts an input image by using a preceding decoded image stored in a frame memory portion (302) and outputs motion vectors. A difference calculating portion (303) determines a difference between the input image signal and the predicted image signal and outputs the difference as a prediction-error signal to a band-dividing portion (304) which in turn divides the prediction-error signal into n hierarchical layers of frequency-band-components and outputs them to respective coding portions (305a to 305n). A loop-back control portion (307) decides whether each of the coded frequency-band-components of the coded prediction-error signal from respective coding portions is input to a synthesizing portion (309) and outputs a decoded prediction-error signal. The predicted image signal and the decoded prediction-error signal are combined to generate a decoded image signal corresponding to the input image. The decoded image signal is used for prediction of a subsequent input image. A motion-compensated interframe-predicting portion (901) predicts an input image by using a preceding decoded image stored in a frame memory portion (902) and outputs motion vectors. A difference calculating portion (903) determines a difference between the input image signal and the predicted image signal and outputs the difference as a prediction-error signal to a band-dividing portion (904) which in turn divides the prediction-error signal into n hierarchical layers of frequency-band-components and outputs them to respective coding portions (905a to 905n) for quantizing and encoding the respective components. Buffer portions (906a to 906n) store the coded information and output the information to an external circuit. The buffers output respective frequency-band-components of the coded information according to retransmission request signals from a retransmission control portion (910).
