Abstract: A carburettor for use with a two-stroke engine of the type in which the engine
inlet duct is divided into two separate passages includes a circular section duct,
which, in use, forms part of the inlet duct of the engine, one or more fuel jets
(60, 61, 62) arranged to introduce fuel into the duct, a partition wall (66), which
divides part of the duct into two passages and a throttling valve (20) which is
pivotally mounted for rotation about a diametral axis to be movable between a
closed position, in which it substantially closes the duct, and an open position
in, which it extends substantially parallel to the intended direction of air flow
through the duct and divides the duct into two equal size passages, namely a
first passage closest to the fuel jets and a second passage further from the fuel
jets. The fuel jets are arranged to direct fuel towards the throttling valve (20),
whereby when the valve (20) is open all the fuel flows into the first passage and
only air flows into the second passage and when the valve is closed fuel flows
into both the first and second passages. The carburettor includes only a single
throttling valve (20) and the partition wall (66) lies in a diametral plane. The
partition wall (66) affords an aperture (68) in which the throttling valve (20) is
pivotably movable and which is closed by the throttling valve, when the latter is
in the open position.

Abstract: Before starting the regular display in a liquid crystal display device
of the bend alignment type, it is necessary to transition all the pixel regions
in the entire display portion uniformly from splay alignment into bend
alignment. However, conventionally, when applying a simple ac voltage,
the transition sometimes does not take place, and when it does take place,
the transition time is very long, and display defects due to alignment defects
tend to occur. 
     In the method for driving a liquid crystal display device with OCB
cells according to the present invention, a step of applying between an
electrode (202b) and a pixel electrode (202a) comprising protrusions (222a)
and recesses (221a), an ac voltage superimposed with a bias
voltage, and a step of applying zero voltage or a low voltage to the substrates
are repeated in alternation preceding the begin of the regular display
operation and the regular display operation is carried out after all pixels
have transitioned into bend alignment.

Abstract: A support system for ground vibration testing of a large flexible
structure. The system includes a plurality of light weight lifting mechanisms
that impart an upward force sufficient to lift the flexible structure off the
ground. The system also includes a plurality of lift beams coupled to the
lifting mechanisms in a pendulous manner. Each lift beam attaches to the
flexible structure at one of a plurality of designated jack points, and lifts the
flexible structure off the ground when the upward force is imparted by the
lifting mechanisms. Thus, the flexible structure is thereby pendulously
suspending above the ground such that rigid body mode test data is
decoupled from first flexible mode test data.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the invention, an optical attenuation device has an input/output
6 on which a multiplexed optical input stream is received. A multiplexer/de-multiplexer
(MUX/DEMUX) 2 separates the received stream into individual optical
signals on individual channels and has an output/return path 12 from the
MUX/DEMUX 2 for each of the channels. Reflector means 4 in each output/return
path 12 reflects all or a proportion of the optical signal on the respective channel
back along the output/return path 12 to the MUX/DEMUX 2. At the MUX/DEMUX,
the optical signals are combined into a multiplexed stream which is output on the
input/output 6. In an alternative embodiment, the device has first and second
MUX/DEMUX 2, 20, an output path 12 from the first MUX/DEMUX 2, attenuation
means 40 at the end of each output path 12 and return paths 120 from the attenuation
means 40 to the second MUX/DEMUX 20. The attenuation means attenuates the
optical signals on the respective channels, and the attenuated signals are combined
into a multiplexed stream at the second MUX/DEMUX 20. Both embodiments
achieve attenuation of multiplexed optical streams by attenuating the component
optical signals of the stream in parallel.

Abstract: A means for determining the concentration of a hydrogen-rich fuel in a
fuel solution within the anode reservoir (202) of a fuel cell. The fuel concentration is
determined using a dye mixture responsive to fuel concentration within a fuel
solution. As fuel is consumed, the fuel concentration decreases. As the fuel
concentration decreases, the dye changes color. The resulting color changes occur
within the anode reservoir (202) of the fuel cell, or within a dye chamber (210) in
fluid contact with the anode reservoir (202), and are made visible by a window (204).
A color strip (206) and fuel scale (208) may be included to facilitate fuel
concentration determination based on the color of the fuel solution. Additionally, a
valve responsive to dye color may act to control fuel delivery.
