Title: A method of monitoring a surface feature and apparatus therefor
Inventor: NIXON MARK ARTHUR
IPC: A61B5/107
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: Dimensions of a surface feature are determined by capturing an image of the surface feature and determining a scale associated with the image. Structured light may be projected onto the surface, such that the position of structured light in the captured image allows determination of scale. A non-planar surface may be unwrapped. The surface may alternatively be projected into a plane to correct for the scene being tilted with respect to the camera axis. A  border of the surface feature may be input manually by a user. An apparatus and system for implementing the method are also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a control device for controlling the heat removal q in the case of a mould 200 for the casting of metal. By suitable variation of the flow V of a cooling medium 300 through the side plate of a mould, heat removal from the side plate is adjusted to a predetermined setpoint value q Soll. In order not to have to adapt the control of the heat removal to different thicknesses or coatings of the side plates every time that different moulds are used or to changed adjustments of the side plates during the casting operation or to different grades of steel that may be cast, it is proposed according to the invention to calculate in real time the actual value for the heat removal q during stationary casting operation suitably for the cooling medium in each case, inter alia from the difference between the temperature of the cooling medium 300 at the coolant outlet and at the coolant inlet of the side plate 200 and also from material constants.

Title: Insulated curtain for a door
Inventor: HOERNER BILL
IPC: E06B9/13
Filed: 2007-04-11
Abstract: A vertically operating door includes a flexible panel comprising two pliable sheets of material with a layer of thermal insulation between the two. The door includes means for preventing or relieving undesirable air pressure conditions inside the panel. In some cases, a hose from a suction inlet of a blower extends into the space between the two sheets so that when the door is closed with the bottom of the panel resting upon the floor, the blower draws out excess air that happens to leak into the hollow interior of the panel. In other cases, air passageways are created to release or redistribute the excess air inside the panel. The door includes an inflatable seal that helps prevent frost from forming on the door panel's vertical guide tracks, thus the door is particularly suited for refrigerated cold storage rooms.

Title: Door controlling hand disinfectant system
Inventor: BROW GEORGES RAYMOND
IPC: A61G12/00
Filed: 2009-08-11
Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved automated door controlling hand disinfectant system by which a visitor must first utilize a disinfectant/soap dispenser to gain unalarmed entry or exit through a door. When the dispenser is utilized the dispenser transmits a signal to a processor which then deactivates temporarily a motion/presence detector scanning an area immediately adjacent or close to the doorway, and unlocks the door to permit entry. At the same time, a processor activates a light emitter to provide a visual indication to the visitor that passage is permitted, and, simultaneously also activates an access allowed audio tone to be played through a message conveying apparatus. If the dispenser has not been utilized, the system will retain the door in a locked position to prevent passage through the door until hand washing has occurred, and the motion/presence detector will remain armed and the processor then issues an access denied audio tone to be played, and, simultaneously also activates a flashing light emitter to provide a visual indication to the visitor that passage is not permitted. In an alternative variation, the components of the system are self-contained within the door and the door is web enabled with electronic communication, whereby settings and events for the door can be observed or changed manually on site or remotely such as via the internet by a remote operator.
