Inventor: TOMPKIN WAYNE ROBERT
IPC: B42D15/10
Filed: 2003-11-07
Abstract: Proposed is an optically variable element which at least in surface portions has an interface which is embedded between two layers and which forms an optically effective structure, that interface having a free-form surface which appears three-dimensionally for a viewer. To emphasise that free-form surface it is proposed in accordance with the invention that the free-form surface is formed by a partial region of the interface, which is of a lens-like configuration and which produces a magnification, reduction or distortion effect. Further subject-matter of the application is the use of such optically variable elements as a security element to prevent forgery of value-bearing documents or for articles to be safeguarded, in particular as part of the decorative layer arrangement of a transfer or laminating film.

Title: All-mass ms/ms method and apparatus
Inventor: MAKAROV ALEXANDER
IPC: H01J49/38
Filed: 2004-05-28
Abstract: A method of obtaining a mass spectrum of elements in a sample is disclosed.  Sample precursor ions having a mass to charge ratio M1/Z1, M2/Z2, ~ Mn/Zn are generated, and fragmented at a dissociation site (192), so as to produce fragment ions of mass to charge ratio ml/Z1, m2/Z2, ~ mn/Zn. The fragment ions are guided into an ion trap (130) of the electrostatic or "Orbitrap" type, the fragment ions entering the trap in groups dependent upon the M/Z ratio of the precursor ions. The mass to charge ratio of each group is determined from the axial movement of ions in the trap. The electric field in the trap is distorted. Ions of the same m/z, that are derived from different pre-cursor ions, are then separated, because the electric field distortion causes the axial movement to become dependent upon factors other than m/z alone.

Title: Altitude protection device
Inventor: SCHMIEDING DIRK
IPC: A62B17/00
Filed: 2004-10-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for protecting pilots and other crew members of high-performance aircrafts, especially people wearing pressure suits ( 1 ) according to the hydrostatic principle with veins ( 6 ) filled with liquid. Said device consists of a tension pocket ( 2 ) located in the region of the back and a pressure pocket ( 3 ) located in the abdominal region, airtight bladders ( 4 ) being inserted into both pockets. Said bladders ( 4 ) contain woven spacer elements ( 5 ) defining a minimum air volume in the bladders ( 4 ). In the event of falling ambient pressure, the pressure pocket ( 3 ) first expands and supports the breathing of the person wearing the device by means of pressure on the viscera, when pressure respiration appliances are used. If the ambient pressure falls further, the tension pocket ( 2 ) inflates and increases the peripheral tension in the pressure suit ( 1 ). In this way, for example, a decompression syndrome can be counteracted in the event of a sudden pressure drop in the cabin at high altitude.
