Abstract: A body (10, 13, 21, 28, 49) of a specially prepared, porous vitreous carbon which does not crack or substantially change in electrical resistance with time when heated to elevated temperatures in air and which is used in a method or apparatus to heat a fluid stream flowing in the pores of the body as a result of natural convection or pumping of the fluid. The body is composed of electrically conductive rigid, interconnected and multidirectional continuous strands of vitreous carbon forming a rigid porous, three dimensional skeletal structure. The body as an electrical resistance element has current conductive paths between at least two regions; is shaped to provide particular cross-sections along the conductive paths; and has electrical connector means (15, 18, 24, 37) attached at the regions of the body so that current can be distributed through the body.

Title: Sub-sampling transmission system for improving transmission picture quality in time-varying picture region of wide-band color picture signal
Inventor: GOHSHI SEIICHI NIPPON HOSO KYO
IPC: H04N11/04
Filed: 1992-06-22
Abstract: A sub-sampling transmission system in the time-varying picture region of a wide-band color picture signal for a high-definition telecast, in which the resolution and overall picture quality of a reproduced color time-varying picture are improved by using the following picture signal processings, instead of a usual line offset sub-sampling every field in a narrow-band transmission of the color picture signal, for which the resolution of the time-varying picture is made low in comparison with a static picture subjected to an offset sub-sampling using the sampling pattern cycled every two frames. In the picture signal processings, an offset sub-sampling between the fields is applied to a color difference signal in the time-varying picture region. Also, the signal processing, which includes a frequency band limitation for preventing an aliasing accompanied by the sub-sampling from generating, and an interpolation when reproducing, is performed between the fields in the form of it being completed every frame. Further, with respect to the time-varying picture region of its movement in the vertical direction being small, a similar sub-sampling and signal processing are performed for its luminance signal too.

Abstract: The system consists of light source (2), a monochrometer (4), one or more etalons or other samples (7), a detector (8) and a computer (10) to store reference spectra, provide a read out indicative of the spectrum and to change the instrument response. A transfer function is used to recharacterize the instrument's wavelength position and intensity response to match the actual spectrum with the standard spectrum. In one embodiment, the etalon (7) is used in series with the unknown sample (9). A spectrum of the unknown sample and etalon (7) is created and is extracted from the spectrum of the unknown sample (9) alone to provide the actual spectrum of the instrument response to the etalon (7) alone. The actual spectrum can then be compared to the standard spectrum and the instrument response recharacterized accordingly.

Title: Variable proportion dispenser with cartridge replacement assembly.
Inventor: HABER TERRY M
IPC: A61M5/50
Filed: 1993-06-08
Abstract: A variable proportion dispenser (2c) includes a housing (12c) which houses two pharmaceutical cartridges (6b). A reciprocating drive assembly includes drive stems (36c) extending from the pistons (46b) of each cartridge, a limit guide (76c) removably mounted to the housing, and a sliding body (66e, 300) mounted to the housing through the limit guide. Two one-way drivers (326) and threaded dosage adjusters (60c) are carried by the sliding body. Each one-way driver drives the drive stem into the cartridge through a drive surface to provide a range of dose selections. The user can thus control the amount and proportion of each pharmaceutical dispensed during each delivery stroke for each dispensing cycle. The housing is separable from the remainder of the dispenser, preferably using a cartridge release assembly (302), to allow spent cartridge to be replaced. Use of the cartridge release assembly also causes the one-way drivers to release the drive stems to permit the drive stems to be returned to their original positions.
