Title: Continuous process for the manufacture of tubular food casings
Inventor: FARIAS IGNACIO L
IPC: D01F2/06
Filed: 1994-07-08
Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure Tubular food casings, such as artificial sausage casings, are made from regenerated cellulose in a continuous process that permits removal of fluids produced during the cellulose regeneration step, so that the tubular casing can be made in a non interrupted manner.  The process comprises: a)   extruding an alkaline viscose solution through an extrusion die within a coagulation bath, b)   inducing a counter flow within the extruded tubular casing which removes the gases and liquids contained inside the tubular casing through an internal orifice in said extrusion die by means of a flattening device located at the end of the coagulation-regeneration step, c)   passing the tubular casings through a series of water, desulfurizing, water and plastification baths and through a drying step and finally winding it up in flattened condition characterized in that less than 3% of the inside surface of the casing is covered by particulates as measured by field emission scanning electron microscopy and by image analysing techniques.
Patent CA-2128264-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PLAMPER GUENTER
IPC: E05F15/16
Filed: 1994-07-18
Abstract: Abstract A safety edge assembly, for a movable closure such as a garage door, automatically reverses the direction of travel of the door when the door encounters an obstruction.          The safety edge assembly includes an electrically conductive mounting rail fixed to the door, and a deformable tubular member supported on the mounting rail.          A conductive member on the tubular member is movable, upon deformation of the tubular member, from a first position normally spaced from the conductive mounting rail into a second position in engagement with the conductive mounting rail to complete an electrical circuit for controlling the direction of movement of the door.  An end plug for closing the open end of the tubular member has a nonconductive portion for insertion between the end of the conductive member, which may fray or otherwise move out of position while being cut to length in the field, and the end of the conductive mounting rail to provide electrical insulation therebetween. A method of controlling operation of a movable door includes the step of moving an electrically conductive member on a deformable member on a leading edge of the door into electrical contact with an electrically conductive mounting rail on the leading edge of the door, under the influence of forces applied to the deformable member by contact of the tubular member with an obstruction, to control actuation of the movable door.

Title: Body detector
Inventor: GERSTON CHARLES
IPC: G08B21/22
Filed: 1994-11-02
Abstract: BODY DETECTOR            ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE     A body detector (10) detects when a body (12) is absent from a region (26) being monitored.  The body (12) has a different dielectric constant than air.  The region (26) is configured as a capacitor (20) in which the body (12), if present, serves as a dielectric.  The capacitance of the capacitor (20) is measured (28).  This measurement influences a baseline value (34).  The capacitance is measured (38) a second time.  The second measurement is checked to verify that it is within minimum (42) and maximum (46) values.  In addition, it is checked to verify that it is within a more narrow range (54) that is defined in response to the baseline value.  The second measurement is then used to adjust the baseline value and the process repeats.  The range (54) within which the capacitance must stay slowly adapts to changes in the capacitance of the capacitor (20).  Abrupt changes in the capacitance cause an alarm to be annunciated.

Title: Apparatus and method for slitting corrugated paperboard boxes
Inventor: SMITTERBERG DEAN W
IPC: B26D1/54
Filed: 1993-05-04
Abstract: A stack of folded and glued corrugated paperboard boxes is slit in unison with a thin cutting blade having a linear cutting edge disposed parallel to the plane of the boxes and moved through the stack in an angular direction to slit essentially one box at a time. The stack is squared before slitting to align the box edges, however, the force of the blade on the stack as it moves therethrough holds the receding stack together such that the cut halves of each box may part laterally as the blade passes therethrough to avoid any crushing of the corrugated paperboard media.

Title: Elbow Prosthesis
Inventor: RISUNG FINN
IPC: A61B17/122
Filed: 1994-02-09
Abstract: An implantable elbow prosthesis (1) comprises an ulnar component (2) and a humeral component (3) wherein the head (21) of the ulnar component is designed in a bifurcated shape with two horns (22, 23) and the head (31) of the humeral component comprises a rotatable spindle (34) between two projecting flanges (32, 33). The joint component of the prosthesis is formed by arranging the head (21) of the ulnar component to engage with the spindle (34) of the humeral component.  In each of the horns (22, 23) on the ulnar component (2) there is provided a groove (24, 25) which terminates in a respective blind hole (24, 25) on each horn (22, 23). A C-ring form of clip (4) connects the heads (21, 31) of the ulnar component and the humeral component, while maintaining the desired degree of freedom of movement for the elbow joint and a predetermined tolerance of movement. The clip (4) embraces the spindle (34) on the humeral component (3) with a clearance (5) between the arc (43) of the clip and the spindle and is locked to the ulnar component (2), the ends (41, 42) of the clip being inserted into the grooves (24, 25) on the horns (22, 23) of the ulnar component and engaging with the blind holes (26, 27). This ensures that the ulnar component (2) does not lose its grip on the spindle (34) of the humeral component while at the same time the desired play is obtained in the actual joint connection, a vital circumstance for the functional characteristics of the prosthesis.

The material may also contains residual unreacted portions of components other than the first metal derivative. Articles formed from this material can be useful in wear resistant applications.
Patent CA-2157662-A1 (CA)
Title: Providing individual subscriber services in a cellular mobile communications network
Inventor: LANTTO JOERGEN SVEN
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 1995-01-09
Abstract: In a cellular mobile communications network, routing decisions pertaining to supplementary services are made by a home location register (HLR). For calling subscriber supplementary services, such as private numbering plans, a mobile services switching center (MSC) requests that the HLR performs the necessary routing decisions, and the HLR responds accordingly. For called subscriber supplementary services, such as call forwarding on busy, the MSC sends a status information (such as the busy condition) to the HLR, and the HLR responds by determining supplementary call routing information, which is then sent to the MSC. Determining the supplementary call routing information may require that the HLR select from among several routing alternatives, in dependence on a condition such as time-of-day. In an alternative embodiment of called subscriber services, the HLR may recognize, upon initially being asked for a roaming number for a called subscriber, that a called subscriber condition exists that requires making a choice from among several possible routings. The HLR may solicit choice-determinative information from the MSC, which in turn prompts the calling subscriber for this information. The requested information may be returned to the MSC from the calling subscriber in the form of a dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) signal. The MSC may convert the DTMF signal into a message containing the requested information, for transmission to the HLR.

Title: Information encoding method and apparatus, information decoding method and apparatus, information transmission method, and information recording medium
Inventor: TSUTSUI KYOYA
IPC: G10L25/93
Filed: 1995-03-31
Abstract: According to the present invention, for encoding input signals, the input signals are transformed into frequency components, and the frequency components are separated into a first signal composed of tonal components and a second signal composed of other components. The first and second signals are encoded respectively, and code strings for transmission or recording are generated on the basis of encoded signals resulting from first and second encoding. For example, only the first signal is encoded and the code string is caused to include partial information strings grouped so as to have common values on the basis of at least one of reference parameters pertaining to the signal separation and parameters pertaining to the first encoding. Thus, more efficient encoding than in the conventional technique can be realized.
