Patent NO-992972-D0 (NO)
Inventor: ORPEN KENNETH STEPHEN EDDIN
IPC: A01F15/07
Filed: 1999-06-17
Abstract: Wrapping apparatus for wrapping an object such as an agricultural bale with stretched film has a powered stretch film dispenser mounted to a swing arm disposed above a bale support; the swing arm is connected to a drive unit by which the arm is swung causing the dispenser to execute continuous circular motion about a bale on the bale support, the latter being operable to spin the bale slowly about an axis in the plane of motion of the dispenser. The dispenser derives power for positively dispensing wrapping film from the arm drive unit by way of a mechanical drive transmission. In use, turns of film are wrapped in overlapping, angularly displaced fashion about the bale and the rate at which film is dispensed always bears a fixed relationship to the speed of the drive unit, the angular speed of the swing arm and the rate at which turns are wrapped around the bale.

Title: Improvements in photo detectors
IPC: H01L31/107
Filed: 2000-05-20
Abstract: A horizontal access semiconductor photo detector ( 2 ) comprises a horizontal light absorbing layer ( 8 ) for converting light into photo-current which layer is configured to confine light within it in whispering gallery modes of propagation. The detector is configured to have a first waveguide portion ( 18 ) and a second light confining portion ( 20, 21 ) arranged such that the waveguide portion couples light into the detector and transfers light into the light confining portion so as to excite whispering gallery modes of propagation around the light confining portion. The light absorbing layer may be part of the light confining portion or alternatively light can be coupled into the light confining portion or alternatively light can be coupled into the light absorbing layer from the light confining portion by evanescent coupling. The excitation of whispering gallery modes within the light absorbing layer significantly increases the effective absorption coefficient of the light absorbing layer.

Title: A ball valve assembly
IPC: F16K27/06
Filed: 2003-05-16
Abstract: A ball valve assembly comprises a housing with ball valve rotatably disposed in a valve chamber in the flow passage.

Title: Enhanced wireless remote control system
IPC: H04B1/38
Filed: 2004-04-29
Abstract: A wireless transceiver data communications system provides an encoded data communications system to operate within the low power, license free radio spectrum to provide remote control and monitoring functions. It consists of a pair of modules that are substantially the same and linked wirelessly together. Each module contains an antenna 1 matched to a transmitter 2 and receiver 3 which can be switched from transmit to receive under the control of the microprocessor 4. When the user applies an input signal to the module interface, it is encoded by the microprocessor into a serial datastream and passed to an encoding system 11 which encodes the stream into a suitable form (such as Manchester encoding) and then adds an identifier code and creates a packet of data. Before the packet is transmitted, the microprocessor uses the receiver to detect whether there is another operating on the same frequency in the vicinity that could cause a collision.

Then the second control signal is adjusted to cause the transmitter to operate in a desired manner and the power in a signal transmitted by the transmitter is measured. The setting, adjusting and measuring is repeated for each signal value in the set of multiple first control signal values.
