Title: Ensemble verseur de liquide
Inventor: MCDONALD JOHN TERRANCE
IPC: B65D/
Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble verseur de liquide comprenant trois composants principaux : un capuchon supérieur, une bille de soupape, et un manchon de siège de soupape inférieur. La bille peut se déplacer librement dans le manchon lorsque le liquide est délivré, mais enferme le liquide de manière étanche dans le récipient lorsqu'il est en position debout. Des canaux de vidange très étroits permettent au liquide de retourner dans le récipient mais empêchent les contaminants d'entrer dans le récipient. Des guides d'écoulement de liquide situés dans le capuchon supérieur possèdent des épaulement qui ne s'étendent que dans la partie supérieure du manchon de siège de soupape. Ces guides à épaulements permettent la torsion, le mélange et l'aérage du liquide s'écoulant dans l'ensemble verseur, ce qui crée un motif de flux de déversement de liquide esthétique.

Title: Methods and systems for interaction with three-dimensional computer models
Inventor: LEE CHEE KEONG EUGENE
IPC: G06T19/20
Filed: 2001-08-28
Abstract: A computer system for permitting user interaction with a three-dimensional computer model defines an initial correspondence between the computer model and a real world workspace. An editing volume of the workspace is also defined, and a stereoscopic image of the section of the computer model within the editing volume is displayed. Using a first input device a user can translate and/or rotate the model, and rotate the editing volume, so as to bring different portions of the model into the editing volume, and thus into the user's view. The user operates a second input device to indicate changes to be made to the model. The first and second input devices can be operated with the user's respective hands. Since only the portion of the model within the editing volume need be displayed, the processing and display requirements are reduced, in comparison to displaying the entire model.
