Title: Sanitary napkin having stiffening side stabilizers
Inventor: MAY MELISSE NOEL
IPC: A61F13/472
Filed: 1995-06-16
Abstract: A unitary disposable absorbent article, particularly a catamenial pad or incontinent pad, having stablizer members along the longitudinal side edges to enable the pad to assume a configuration conforming closely to the perineal area of the human body thereby more readily intercepting bodily discharges and providing a barrier to side soiling. The absorbent articles of the present invention comprise a central absorbent panel; a pair of side wall panels extending outwardly from and along the side borders of the central absorbent panel; and an axis of flexural bending joining each side wall panel to the central absorbent panel. The absorbent articles are constructed of a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet joined to the topsheet, an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet, side flaps extending outwardly from and along the side edges of the absorbent core, and stabilizer members joined in the side wall panels with the laterally innermost edge of the stabilizer member being disposed at or laterally inward from the side edge of the absorbent core. Thus, the stabilizer members increase the flexural stiffness of the side wall panels so that the flexural stiffness of each side wall panel is greater the the flexural stiffness of the central absorbent panel of the absorbent article. The lateral compression of the side wall panels is also greater than the lateral compression of the central absorbent panel to allow the central absorbent panel to buckle and bend upward to conform to the body. Preferably, the stabilizer members are joined to the wearer's surface of the topsheet to further provide a barrier to the lateral flow of liquids along the top surface of the absorbent article.

Title: Brake pipe sensing unit
Inventor: MAZUR RICHARD J
IPC: B60T13/66
Filed: 1997-04-24
Abstract: A brake pipe sensing unit may be used with a universal pneumatic brake control unit of a rail vehicle.  The brake pipe sensing unit includes a control reservoir, an auxiliary reservoir, a three  state  valve,  a  quick  service  valve,  a  brake  pipe transducer and a transmission device.  The control reservoir is used as a volume in which gas under pressure may stored and from which gas  under pressure may be  supplied.   The auxiliary reservoir communicates with a supply port of the universal unit and with a first and a second route of the brake pipe sensing unit.    The three  state valve  has  a  first pilot port  in communication with a brake pipe of the rail vehicle, a second pilot port in communication with the control reservoir, and first  and  second  exhaust  ports  both  of which  connect  to atmosphere.    The  three  state  valve  operates  in  an  apply position, a release position and a lap position depending on the pressure bearing on the first and second pilot ports.  The quick service valve connects within the first route and has a service pilot port in communication with both the auxiliary reservoir and the supply port.  The quick service valve closes the first route  when pressure  at  the  service  pilot port  exceeds  a preselected level.  The brake pipe transducer converts pressure within the brake pipe to an electrical signal.  The transmission device communicates the electrical signal received from the brake pipe transducer to a brake control bus on the rail vehicle.

Title: Optical receiver board, optical wavelength-tuning filter module used foroptical receiver board, and actuator for optical wavelength-tuning filter module
Inventor: OGURI HITOSHI
IPC: H04B10/158
Filed: 1997-06-02
Abstract: An optical receiver board is disclosed.   In the optical receiver board, a signal light is amplified in an optical fiber amplifier.    The  amplified  signal  light  is  supplied  to  an electrically driven optical wavelength-tuning filter such as a multi-layered film interference filter, through which a signal light of a predetermined wavelength bandwidth is transmitted.          The transmitted signal light is divided into first and second signal  lights.   The first signal  light is converted to an electric signal which is amplified by an equalizing amplifier, and an amplified electric signal is supplied to a discrimination circuit, in which an information electric signal is generated by using a timing signal.   The optical wavelength-tuning filter comprises a rotation actuator having a magnet-rotating portion and control coils, and an optical filter member fixed to on the top  of  the  magnet-rotating  portion.    In  operation,  the wavelength-tuning filter is swept by a sweep signal, so that an electric signal converted from a signal light transmitted through the optical wavelength-tuning filter becomes a predetermined value, and the tracking control is carried out to maximize a power of the transmitted signal light.  The inclination angle of the optical filter member is changed by  controlling currents flowing through the control coils of the actuator, so that a transmission center wavelength of the signal light is adjusted.
Patent CA-2207091-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHICHIJYO SHIRO
IPC: H01S3/109
Filed: 1997-06-05
Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a laser light generating apparatus capable of minimizing loss in a resonator to give a high efficiency of wavelength conversion. A resonator comprises two reflecting mirrors 1 and 2 arranged in linear relationship and a non-linear optical crystal 3 disposed in the resonator. The non-linear optical crystal 3 is formed in a trapezoid shape so that a pair of input and output sides opposite to each other are tilted with respect to the optical propagation axis. The fundamental laser light is introduced along the optical propagation axis into the optical resonator, converted to a second harmonic by the non-linear crystal 3, and released outside from the reflecting mirror 2.          It is made possible to adjust the beam diameter and convergence angle of the laser light on the light incidence plane(Y-Z plane) when the laser light passes the input and output sides of the non-linear optical crystal 3. For example, the incident plane is made to be consistent with a plane where the acceptance angle of the non-linear optical crystal 3 is limited to a small degree, thus increasing the efficiency of wavelength conversion.

The present invention includes a protocol development environment which enables a user to define a separate finite state machine for each port provided by the switch. Each finite state machine may be independently defined by combining a series of elementary processing steps, called atomic functions, into primitives, which are in turn combined with states and events to define the desired state machine. Such state machines may include atomic functions configured to generate predetermined messages under predetermined conditions and containing predetermined information. Such state machines may further include the ability to respond to state events that include the receipt of generic API messages configured to provide the state machine with information from the host application.
