Title: Adaptive transmit diversity scheme in which each antenna is assigned a different time delay selected using parameter measurements associated with a receiver
Inventor: COSIMINI PETER
IPC: H04B7/06
Filed: 2009-07-24
Abstract: A base station, equipped with a plurality of antennae, uses transmit diversity to transmit a signal to a mobile terminal. Each antenna is configured to transmit the signal with a time offset relative to the other antenna(e). An "engine" for controlling the signal to be transmitted receives one or more parameter measurements relevant to the mobile terminal and uses the measurement(s) to adjust the time offset of at least one of the antennas in order to adapt the signal transmission dependent upon the mobile terminal's instantaneous circumstances. The parameter measurements could for example be an indication of signal quality (such as CQI), signal level (such as RSSI or RSCP), mobile terminal velocity or mobile terminal data throughput. Ideally the "engine" is located in the base station and is configured to receive parameter measurements relating to a plurality of different mobile terminals, and independently adjust the time offset for each of the plurality of different mobile terminals.

Title: Improvements in can heading machine
IPC: B21D51/32
Filed: 1920-04-13
Abstract: 141,713. Max Ams Machine Co., (Assignees of Brenzinger, J.). April 1, 1919, [Convention date]. Seaming.-In a hand or power driven machine for seaming the heads to the bodies of cans, the work is mounted so as to be frictionally rotated and the seam is started and completed by a single roller which is positively actuated to give a combined motion of rotation and axial translation. The seaming roller 41, Fig. 2, which is mounted in a recess 40 in a frame 7 supported from the floor or secured to a bench or other support 9, is keyed to a collar 42 and secured by a nut 43 to a hand-operated shaft 34, which is threaded at 37 to screw through a block 33. The roller has a spiral groove 70, Fig. 4, of the same pitch as the screw 37, and of varying depth so that the superposed layers 64, 66 of the can body and head are wholly contained therein and are entirely supported throughout the whole seaming operation so as to prevent distortion. Several turns of the groove may be of uniform depth. The can-holding chucks 58, 68 are carried by bosses 55, 44 on the cross-members of a frame, which is pivoted at 15 to a screwed rod 10 carried by the frame 7, and is pressed towards the roller by a pair of springs 30, 31, Fig. 3, mounted on screwed rods 18, 19, so as to give slightly when the combined thickness of the layers to be seamed increases, for example when the interlocked or overlapped edges of a side seam are opposite the roller. The upper chuck 58 which enters the recess in the head so as to support the flanges during seaming, is secured by a disk 60 to, and is rotatably mounted on the reduced extension 57 of a block 56 adjustably secured in the boss 55, antifriction rollers 59, and a ball bearing 61 being provided. The lower chuck 68 has pegs 75 passing through springs 76, which hold it from a disk 47 to allow for slight variations in the heights of the cans. The disk 47 has a stem 48 passing through a pair of cams 53, 46, a ball bearing 54 being inserted between the disk and cam 53. The lower cam has a tubular shank 45 which is adjustably secured in the boss 44, and the upper cam is rotated by a handle to clamp the cans in the chucks. Two obliquely projecting rods 73, 74 adjustably secured in bosses in the block 33 serve to centre the can. To adapt the machine to cans of different sizes, the work-holder frame may be adjustable laterally by nuts 22, 23 on the rods 18. 19 and bv nuts 78, 79 on the rods 10, the chuck 68 adjusted by the screw 77, and the centring- rods secured in adjusted position by screws 80, 81. The shaft 34 may be laterally inclined so that the portion of the groove in contact with the can head may be in a horizontal plane so as to reduce friction.
Patent GB-595092-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in cellulosic plastics diffusing light and processes for manufacturing the same
IPC: C08J5/00
Filed: 1945-04-24
Abstract: A cellulose derivative composition which diffuses light is obtained by distributing throughout the composition, granules of a cellulosic material different from that forming the basis of the continuous phase and having a different refractive index, these granules having a diameter between 0.05 and 0.10 millimetres. The composition may be used in making lamp-shades, or other articles where diffusion of light or ornamental effects are required.  The basic material may be a plastic made of a cellulose acetate which is soluble in acetone and the granular material may be a cellulose triacetate, methyl cellulose or other cellulose derivative of different solubility.  The granular material may be incorporated during mastication or working of the plastic.  If desired, grains of coarser form than ultimately required, e.g. pulp or flake particles may be mechanically worked into the plastic and broken up by the swelling and softening action of solvents used and by the mixing operation into grains of the required size.  Dyes and pigments may be incorporated in the composition.  In an example, acetone-soluble cellulose acetate is masticated with acetone, ethyl alcohol, and benzene, and a plasticizer composed of triphenyl phosphate and methyl phthalate. It is then worked on rolls, and a small proportion of cellulose triacetate in the form of a powder having a particle size of about 0.08 mm. is mixed with it.  The mass is sheeted and blocked, and sheets are then cut from the block.  In another example, methyl cellulose is used as the granular material and a little titanium oxide is also added.  The plastic is tinted with Japan Orange 2R. Sheets are obtained which have a tortoise shell appearance. Untinted sheets of the plastic may be kneaded with brown sheets of the same plastic to form a product showing tinted veins. Specification 452,506 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to power transmission mechanism
IPC: F16H47/08
Filed: 1942-07-23
Abstract: 601,303. Hydromechanical variable-speed gear combinations. SALERNI, P. M. July 23, 1942, No. 10334. [Class 80 (ii)] [Also in Group XXIX] A hydraulic torque converter is driven from the input shaft through a reduction gear which can be brought into operation depending upon conditions in the converter itself. The impeller 7 is connected to the planet carrier 6 of an epicyclic gear, the annulus 3 of which is driven by the shaft 1 and casing 2. The sunwheel 4 is prevented from rotating backwards when required by the free-wheel device 21 engaging the sleeve 22, this sleeve being held stationary by the band brake 23. The reaction member 9 can be freed similarly. On starting, the pressure of the fluid in the converter passing through passages 26, 27, 28 ... 36 acting on the piston 15 disengages the clutch 12 and allows the epicyclic gear to function. When running conditions allow the fluid pressure to fall, clutch 12 engages, and direct drive of the impeller occurs. The controls of the gear-box, brake band 23 and valve 32 may be mechanically interlinked.
