Title: Vulcanised nitrile rubber drawing device for polyamide
Inventor: DAVID JOHN BURKEY
IPC: C08K5/43
Filed: 1968-07-26
Abstract: Drawing devices for polyamide or polyester filaments are produced from a filled, sulphur-vulcanised butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer contg. 5-35 pts wt. toluenes ulphonamide per 100 pts. wt. copolymer. The mixt. pref. contains 15 pts. wt. toluenesulphonamide per 100 pts. wt. copolymer. The filler is pref. carbon black. The amount of toluenesulphonamide is sufficient to cause exudation of this material from the surface of the copolymer. This exudation eliminates the adhesive properties normally present on the surface of the drawing device, because of the acumulation of a static charge. consequently the drawing of the polyamide or polyester filaments is facilitated.

Title: Vehicle security system and method
Inventor: BUNYAN ROY JAMES
IPC: B60R25/24
Filed: 2001-03-21
Abstract: A vehicle security system uses a portable device 14 such as a pocket PC or PDA. When the device is inserted in a cradle 13 in the vehicle 10, it communicates with the on-board computer 11 to obtain the vehicle identity. The device then sends a request message, containing the vehicle identity and device identity, to a remote authentication server 15. The authentication server performs a number of checks, including checking that the device is authorised for use with this vehicle, and returns a response to the device. If the authentication is successful, the device allows the vehicle to be started. If the response from the authentication server is delayed, the vehicle may be started, but if the authentication check then fails, an on-line check will be compulsory the next time an attempt is made to start the vehicle.

Title: Heating sludge
Inventor: BRADE COLIN
IPC: A61L2/04
Filed: 2001-05-08
Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating sewage sludge by heating in a sludge pasteurisation process in which small bubbles of steam are injected into a continuous flow of sludge to cause highly turbulent sludge flow conditions during which the steam condenses to heat the sludge. Incoming, untreated sludge is initially pre-heated as required and as available heat sources such as independent power plant or excess capacity of the steam generating boiler. Thus, a suitable treating temperature is more readily achieved. The heated sludge is retained in an insulated tank to allow the pasteurisation process to be completed. Heat dumping may be provided to regulate treatment temperatures.

Title: Retaining structure of front holder to connector housing
Inventor: SAKASI YASUHIRO
IPC: H01R13/436
Filed: 2001-09-27
Abstract: A retaining structure of a front holder and a connector housing, consists of a housing body 21 having a retaining portion 23, a front holder 25 having holding arm 31 having a retaining projection 29, and a flexible connection portion 33 for supporting the holding arm so that the retaining projection 29 can be engaged with the retaining portion 23, wherein the flexible connection portion 33 supports the holding arm 31 on a front end of the flexible connection portion 33 in an inserting direction of the front holder 25 into a housing body 21, the retaining projection 29 is engaged with the retaining portion in a state where the front holder is retained to the housing body 21. If a force is applied in a direction releasing the engagement between the front holder 25 and the housing body 21, the retaining projection 29 abuts against the retaining portion 23 so that the holding arm 31 tries to rock in a direction opposite from the direction releasing engagement. Therefore, the retained state between the front holder 25 and the housing body 21 is maintained.

Title: Folding lamp shade
Inventor: WU WEN-CHANG
IPC: F21V17/00
Filed: 2002-02-08
Abstract: A lamp shade that can be folded flat comprises a top ring 1 and a bottom ring 2 between which are propped frame members 3. The top ring has radial support rods 11 that bend upwards at the circumference to receive the frame members in the space 111 created. The bottom ends 33 of the frame members are shaped to lockingly and pivotally engage with mounts 211 on the bottom ring. Flexing of the lamp shade frees the frame members from the support rods and allows both them and the top ring to be laid flat on the bottom ring (figure 7), facilitating transport and storage. Inner and outer flexible covers may be applied to the lampshade whilst still enabling it to be collapsed. Figures 1-6 disclose different geometries for the fixing mounts on the bottom ring and the connecting feet of the frame members.

Title: All optical exclusive OR (XOR) gate
Inventor: MANNING ROBERT JOHN
IPC: G02F1/225
Filed: 2002-03-22
Abstract: An all optical gate for generating an exclusive OR (XOR) output from first and second synchronous data streams. The gate comprises a Mach Zehnder interferometer for receiving a synchronous pulsed or continuous wave optical input, and splitting the input into two arms 24 and 26, the interferometer having a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) 27 and 29 in each arm for receiving the input. The first and second data streams are coupled through the respective optical amplifiers in each arm to modulate the phase of the input transmitted through the arms, and generate an output from the interferometer only when the first and second data streams are at complementary states. The output from each amplifier 27 and 29, is made to interfere with a copy of the input modulated by a copy of the respective data stream coupled to it, delayed 46 and 48 by less than one bit period to cancel any continuing induced phase delay.
