Abstract: The invention concerns a device for mounting a tyre on a vehicle rim, said device comprising first means ( 1 ) designed to receive the rim and place it in position for mounting the tyre, an arm ( 2 ) whereof the first end is provided with a head for mounting ( 4 ) the tyre on the rim, said head ( 4 ) being arranged rotatable about is axis of symmetry, second means ( 3 a, 3 b, 3 c, 3 d) connected to the second end of the arm ( 2 ) and designed to impart to said arm ( 2 ) a rotational movement about the axis of symmetry of the rim in position for mounting the tyre. The arm ( 2 ) is inclined on the axis of symmetry of the rim in the position for mounting the tyre at an acute angle, the first end of said arm ( 2 ) being thus furthest from the axis of symmetry of the rim in the position for mounting the tyre. Thus, the movement of the arm ( 2 ) will not be obstructed by the skew position of the tyre on the rim when it reaches the device.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for securing engagement between fastening components of a pre-fastened garment the fastening components are aligned in at least partially overlapping relationship with each other and engaged with each other to define an engagement seam. The fastening components are then flexed at the engagement seam to generate a shear stress at the seam to thereby promote increased engagement between the fastening components. In another embodiment, the fastening components are delivered in a predetermined direction to a nip and then drawn into the nip at a speed greater than the speed at which the fastening components are delivered to the nip. The fastening components are passed through the nip generally to squeeze the fastening components together at the engagement seam for promoting enhanced engagement between the fastening components.

Abstract: A waveguide structure including two parallel electrically conducting ground planes (1,2), each of which includes at least one row of spaced apart electrically conducting posts (3). The rows of posts are arranged substantially parallel to one another and the space bounded by the plates and posts defines a guided wave region (4) along which electromagnetic radiation may propagate. The posts are connected to only one of the planes so that there is no physical connection between the two ground planes (1,2). Actuating means may be connected to one or both of the ground planes to cause relative movement there between to thereby alter the electrical response of the waveguide. The direction of the relative movement may such that the distance between the rows of posts (3) is changed and/or the distance between the ground planes (1,2) is changed. Various device may utilise the described waveguide construction, including reconfigurable waveguide filters and antenna structures, e.g. slotted waveguide arrays. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus estimate additive noise in a noisy signal using incremental Bayes learning, where a time-varying noise prior distribution is assumed and hyperparameters (mean and variance) are updated recursively using an approximation for posterior computed at the preceding time step. The additive noise in time domain is represented in the log-spectrum or cepstrum domain before applying incremental Bayes learning. The results of both the mean and variance estimates for the noise for each of separate frames are used to perform speech feature enhancement in the same log-spectrum or cepstrum domain. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention discloses a method of improving the playback of streamed media on a client device by overcoming problems caused by variations in the transmission delay of packets due to network and transport protocol operation and variations in encoding/server specific delays. In an embodiment of the invention, a client device has a decoder (120) and a pre-decoder buffer (110) which receives streamed packets from source server via a packet network. The pre-decoder buffer is variable in size and has a variable initial buffering time for receiving the transmitted packets from the source server prior to decoding in the decoder. The initial buffering time and pre-decoder buffer size can be dynamically adapted for improved playback performance by the source server. In a further aspect of the invention, a post-decoder buffer operates in conjunction with the pre-encoder buffer to reduce decoding-related delay variations.
