Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    A  tool includes a handle having a cutting blade, a  writing implement  sharpener and spare blade compartment combined in  the one tool.  One embodiment permits the blade to have an adjustable disposition while another embodiment fixes the disposition of the blade.  In one embodiment the sharpener is located at one of  the ends of the tool handle while in the other embodiment the  sharp-ener  is  located at a mid portion of the handle.   In  the  case where  the disposition of the blade is adjustable, a leaf  spring biases  a lug into an indentation and another lug detent  into  a recess  in  the blade.  The leaf spring slides  above  the  blade between  two  separable longitudinal halves of  the  handle.  The sharpener assembly is fixedly retained within the confines of the tool body with an aperture in abutting rims of two shells of  the body  providing for insertion of the implement to  be  sharpened. Shavings  are  discharged exteriorly of the tool through  a  slot formed in one of the body shells adjacent the blade of the sharp-ener.

Title: Mobile telephone system
Inventor: MAEDA KOJI
IPC: H04M1/00
Filed: 1990-04-26
Granted: 1995-01-03
Abstract: On-board equipment for a mobile telephone system has a function of reporting the degree of busyness of message channels available in a service area.  While the equipment is in a stand-by condition with no communication being held thereon, the degree of busyness is determined on the basis of electric field levels of individual message channels or control information sent from a control station.  When the electric field levels are used to determine the degree of busyness, the electric fields of a plurality of message channels assigned to the service area are detected.  If any of the msssage channels has an electric field level higher than a predetermined level, that message channel is determined to be busy.  The rate of use of the message channels is calculated by using the number of assigned message channels and the number of occupied message channels.  The calculated rate of use is displayed as information which is indicative of the busyness of the message channels.  When the busyness is determined on the basis of control information, a lockout signal sent from the control station and indicative of the fact that no idle message channels are available is detected.  The number of lockout signals having appeared within a predetermined period of time is determined and displayed as busyness information.

Title: Ore feed heating
Inventor: SMITH C NEIL
IPC: C22B1/00
Filed: 1991-10-30
Granted: 2000-08-08
Abstract: An improved method of extracting minerals from ore is described. The method is applicable to vat leaching operations and may also be useful in heap leaching operations. The method involves the pre-heating of comminuted ore prior to the agglomeration phase. The method is found to improve the quality of the agglomerate and to reduce the curing cycle time. In addition, the method described herein induces extra heat into the agglomerated mass which, as well as enhancing the agglomerate quality, adds heat to the leach solution resulting in higher mineral recoveries. The method is especially useful in the winter months when ore temperatures are low; however, improved results are realized when the method is used in the summer months as well.

IPC: G06V10/70
Filed: 1992-02-26
Granted: 2004-10-26
Abstract: The acceptability of the appearance of objects such as consumer products is determined by forming an initial discriminant function as a composite of a relatively small number of images which are known to be acceptable. This initial discriminant function is then used to gather statistical information about how a first relatively large number of images compares to the initial discriminant function. Thereafter, this statistical information is.used to select or aid in the selection of acceptable images from a second relatively large number of images, and the images selected as acceptable are used to refine the discriminant function. The refined discriminant function is then used (e.g., during actual product inspection) to determine which objects have an acceptable appearance and which do not.
