Patent EP-0798934-A1 (EP)
Inventor: AHN ESTEBAN
IPC: H04N7/52
Filed: 1996-10-16
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for improving the performance of a multimedia software by interleaving resource and movie data. It is observed that movie data has uneven demand for bandwidth. There are frames of the movie data that utilize less than the bandwidth of some memory devices (e.g., CDROM) or communication networks (e.g., the Internet) and there are frames that require the maximum available bandwidth. One embodiment of the present invention involves interleaving resource data that is not used in the current frame into movie data of this frame if the movie data does not fully utilize the bandwidth. The resource data could be used in subsequent frames during the playing of the movie or after the termination of the movie. In another embodiment of the present invention, the resource data is broken into small pieces. These pieces can be easily interleaved into different frames so as to maximize the use of the transfer rate.

Abstract: The circular plate, screwed to the ceiling, carries electrical terminals, a cord-grip and mechanical supports for heavier suspended light fittings. A weakened notch area, variably broken out, accepts different conduit end widths. The surface-mounted conduit (11), typically comprising an inverted U-channel (14) and snap-on cover (15), passes through an aperture (20B) in the side (19B) of the outer cup (16B), which accepts all widths, and another (20A) in the inner cup (16A), matching its own width. The inner cup has e.g. 7 entries corresponding to different conduit widths. Positive location is provided, allowing the correct one to be aligned with the outer cup entry. An, opt. split, base with central exit (25) closes the rose underneath. Mouldings are held together by resilient, integral, internal clips.

Inventor: HOLTEN PETRUS ADRIANUS JOSEPHU
IPC: F21V11/02
Filed: 1996-02-08
Abstract: A luminaire has a housing with a light emission window (2), a tubular lamp supported in the housing facing the window (2) and having a center line extending in a plane P perpendicular to the window (2), side reflectors (5), and three-dimensional lamellae (10) which each have an outer edge (11) and a pair of inner edges (12). The outer edge of each lamellae is concave in a direction transverse to the window. The luminaire thus provides an optimized cut-off angle, screening light which would otherwise be dazzling but permitting non-dazzling light to pass. Each of the lamellae has a concave curvature in a direction parallel to the plane P but which flattens out going from plane P towards the side-reflectors (5). That enlarges the aperture through which light emanates and makes the illumination provided by the luminaire more uniform.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for making novel catalysts, catalyst supports, and adsorbers comprising synthetic hydrotalcite-like binders, having a sheet-like morphology and a sheet broadness to thickness ratio of at least 50 and a formula Mg1-xAlx(OH)2.xA-. mH2O where A- is a mono carboxylic anion of the form RCOO- where R is CnH2n+1 and n=0-5, and x and m are numbers satisfying the following conditions: 0.2<=x<=0.4 0.0<=m<=4 This hydrotalcite-like material is combined with an inorganic material to form shapes which have good mechanical strength. The process includes starting with a synthesis mixture having magnesium (divalent cation) to aluminum (trivalent cation) molar ratio between 1:1 and 10:1, mono carboxylic anion to aluminum (trivalent cation) molar ratio between 0.1:1 to 1.2:1 and optionally added other anions. The process further includes reacting a mixture containing magnesium and aluminum cations and mono carboxylic anions in an aqueous slurry at a temperature of at least 40 DEG  C. and a pH of at least 7. The crystallized hydrotalcite product is then spray dried. This spray dried product is mixed with an inorganic material and water to form a plasticized mixture. The plasticized mixture is formed into various shapes. These shapes are then dried to remove water, calcined, steam treated, or otherwise tailored to the requirements of its specific application.

Abstract: A probe (1) and a recording medium (2) are placed close to each other
in an atomic force microscope. While a predetermined repulsion (or a
predetermined gap) is maintained between the probe and medium, an
attraction (electrostatic force or push force) is applied between them so that

temperature to form a recess structure (3). Each recess in the surface forms a
recording unit which is read to retrieve information.

Abstract: A heater (12) for a catheter (10) used in monitoring constant cardiac output is fabricated using a bifilar wire (21) coated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) like that used for the catheter. The bifilar wire is coated with the PVC using a conventional extrusion technique, producing a coated lead (24, 32). The coated lead is wrapped around the exterior surface of the catheter, forming a helical coil. Heat is applied to the coated lead to melt the PVC coating, causing it to bond the lead to the catheter. The melted PVC also flows into gaps (23) or notches between adjacent coils of the lead, producing a relatively smooth outer surface for the heater when cooled.

Abstract: A high-frequency transformer, comprises: a ring core made
of amorphous magnetic material; a core protection box made of
conductive material and enclosing the ring core; and a high-voltage
winding, consisting of enamel-insulated wire wound on
the core protection box. Wherein, on the ring top wall of the core
protection box there is a ring gap in the peripheral direction,
and at inner fringe and outer fringe of the ring gap, a plurality
of leading wires are respectively arranged in the peripheral
direction. The leading wires at inner fringe and outer fringe of
the ring gap are electrically-connected together respectively and
form two terminals. The core protection box and the two
terminals constitute low-voltage winding of the high-frequency
transformer. If the low-voltage winding comprises two or more
core protection boxes, it can have a central tap or have multi-turn.
A thus fabricated high-frequency transformer has a
smaller size, a lighter weight and is more apt to industrial batch
manufacture. Further, the magnetic coupling between the high-voltage
winding and the low-voltage winding can be increased.
