Patent EP-0791442-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KING ROBERT W
IPC: B26D7/32
Filed: 1997-02-24
Abstract: An improved slice stacking device for a food slicing machine. The machine has a reciprocating carriage (320) to which an elongated food product workpiece is mounted. The workpiece reciprocates through a cutting blade, forming a slice (382) in each cycle. A stacking bed (352) has a textured surface for uni-directional sliding resistance and is mounted to the carriage (320) beneath the blade. 
     During the rearward motion of the stacking bed, the slice is raked from the stacking bed (352) by a rake having downwardly extending tine or tines positioned above the stacking bed. The tine or tines extend downwardly into a groove or grooves between ridges on the stacking bed when the slice is raked from the stacking bed (352).

Patent EP-0852313-A1 (EP)
Inventor: REUFF THEO
IPC: E05F15/20
Filed: 1997-06-23
Abstract: The operating device uses an image detector (6), with a CCD or video camera, for monitoring the movement range of the sliding door or window panel (1a,1b). The detector is coupled via an evaluation device (7a) to a control circuit (7b) for the operating drive motor (5). The image detector may be positioned vertically above the path of movement of the door or window panel. The evaluation device uses a microprocessor to detect an obstacle in the path of the movement to provide a signal for the drive motor for reversing or halting the displacement of the sliding door or window panel.

Abstract: The binding comprises base plate (2) which is placed on the upper side of the snowboard (1). It is fixed by a circular flanged plate (7) placed over a circular opening in the base plate and joined to the snowboard. An edge of the flanged plate protrudes over the edge of the circular opening. A clamping plate (8) is positioned over the flanged plate so that the flanged plate can be moved up and down. When turned in one direction, the clamping plate is tensioned axially towards the flanged plate; in the opposite direction, the flanged plate can be moved more. Beneath the flanged plate is a lifting spring (5).

Title: Method and device for determining the phase difference of two correlating signals
Inventor: SCHREIBER ROLF
IPC: B60L3/10
Filed: 1997-08-20
Abstract: The phase shift evaluation method uses an orthogonal correlation between an input test signal (T) representing a momentary required value for an electric locomotive drive and an output test signal (TA) obtained by filtering the angular velocity or angular acceleration at the drive output shaft using a bandpass filter (BP) with a centre frequency corresponding to the frequency of the test signal. The output test signal is multiplied with the input test signal and a 90 degree phase-shifted version of the input test signal, with formation of the mean values of the obtained products and calculation of the phase shift from the arc tangent of their quotient.

Abstract: There are herein disclosed a method for heat
recovery and heat utilization by the use of chemical
energy which comprises the steps of doing the heat recovery
by the following formula (I), and doing the heat
utilization by the following formula (I'):
 HCOOCH 3  → CH 3 OH + CO 
 CH 3 OH + CO → HCOOCH 3   
the reaction of the formula (I') being carried out in the
presence of an alkali fluoride and zinc oxide. According
to the present invention, steam or hot water can be
generated at a high temperature of 100°C or more by the
use of a factory waste heat or a river water at a low
temperature of 100°C or less as a heat source from which
heat has scarcely been utilized so far, and the thus
generated steam or hot water can effectively be used as a
heat source or be used in an air conditioner. The catalyst
which comprises the alkali fluoride and zinc oxide is
used for preparing methyl formate or Co gas according to
the formula (I) or (I').

Abstract: In the patented Menser apparatus for saturating a substrate with a liquid saturant, or resin, by conveying the substrate through a resin chamber, the invention improvement is disclosed whereby the apparatus is modified by the installation within the chamber of a separation means, such as a bar, to redefine the path of the substrate through the chamber filled with liquid saturant. Rather than having the substrate pass through the chamber following the path defined by the periphery of the lower portion of the circumferential surface of a mandrel and only being directly contacted by the liquid saturant on one side of the substrate, the redefined path creates a separation of the substrate from said periphery thereby permitting the liquid saturant to contact the substrate on opposing sides to achieve optimum saturation of the substrate by the liquid saturant in volume and uniformity. Inasmuch as the geometric principles which cause an increase in pressure within the chamber as the substrate travels from its entrance into the chamber to its exit, the benefits in saturation provided by such pressure increase are enhanced by the invention as, by the invention modification, they are received on opposing surfaces of the substrate.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system is provided with a scanning guide which assists a user in conducting three dimensional ultrasonic scanning of a patient. The guide is visual or audible or both, and gives the physician a real time indicator by which to gauge the rate and duration of three dimensional ultrasonic scanning. In a constructed embodiment the scanning guide is modulated by a counter coupled to cine memory, in which image frames are stored for three dimensional processing. As the cine memory fills toward capacity with ultrasonic image frames, the scanning guide is modulated in correspondence with the filling of the memory. A visual indicator (100) of the ultrasonic frame sequence in memory is also provided, on which the user can move markers to eliminate frames at the beginning or end of the sequence from the three dimensional reconstruction.

Abstract: The velocity of the integral speaker coil and cone of the canceling loudspeaker of an
ANC system corresponds to the sound being produced by the canceling loudspeaker.
By determining the velocity of the speaker coil/cone and comparing the sensed velocity to
the driving signal from the controller, the response time and distances can be
shortened. 
     The velocity of the speaker coil/cone is determined by measuring the
voltage drop across a resistor (14) placed in serics with the speaker
coil (12-2) which is differenciated by a circuit (40;140) to obtain a
signla representation of the velocity of the speaker coil.
