Title: High throughput baggage inspection system
Inventor: CONNELLY JAMES M
IPC: G08B29/00
Filed: 2008-02-15
Abstract: A stand-alone inspection system operating reliably with high throughput. The system employs automated image analysis to distinguish between cleared items and suspicious items. Cleared items pass through the inspection system without stopping, but the system stops suspicious items at a predetermined location so that the alarmed items can be readily identified by an operator. The system also displays information on the items that allows an operator to confirm that the item in the predetermined location is an alarmed item. Rather than resolving the alarmed item with the system stopped, the operator records an indicia of the alarmed item and the alarmed item is removed for further inspection or other processing. The recorded indicia provides a tracking mechanism that ensures alarmed bags are resolved.

Title: Aluminum electrolytic cells having profiled cathode carbon blocks
Inventor: FENG NAIXIANG
IPC: C25C3/08
Filed: 2007-12-17
Abstract: Disclosed is an aluminum electrolytic cell having profiled cathode carbon blocks, comprising a cell case, a refractory material installed on the bottom, an anodes and a cathode. The cathode carbon blocks include a profiled structure having projections on the top surface of the carbon blocks, that is, a plurality of projections are formed on a surface of the cathode carbon blocks. The aluminum electrolytic cell having the cathode structure according to the present invention can reduce the velocity of the flow and the fluctuation of the level of the cathodal molten aluminum within the electrolytic cell, so as to increase the stability of the surface of molten aluminum, reduce the molten lose of the aluminum, increase the current efficiency, reduce the inter electrode distance, and reduce the energy consumption of the production of aluminum by electrolysis. With the above configuration, compounds or precipitates of viscous cryolite molten alumina can be formed on the lower portion between walls protruding on the upper surface of the cathode, which can prohibit the molten aluminum from flowing into the cell bottom through the cracks and apertures on cathodes, so that the life of the electrolytic cell can be extended.
