IPC: H01Q1/32
Filed: 1992-10-16
Abstract: Un procédé de réception par antenne, notamment de réception par installation mobile, permet d'obtenir une bonne réception sans qu'il soit nécessaire de procéder à des mesures additionnelles de déparasitage du véhicule. A cet effet, au moins un signal parasite survenant dans le voisinage du site de réception est additionné au signal de réception de manière à compenser les signaux parasites. Cette mesure permet notamment de sélectionner avec un grand degré de liberté les formes et les sites de montage des antennes de réception, en particulier sur des véhicules à moteur. De préférence, au moins une sonde d'antenne capable de prélever le signal parasite propre au véhicule est prévue.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB92/02220 Sec. 371 Date May 26, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date May 26, 1994 PCT Filed Nov. 30, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/11511 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 10, 1993A lock (19) which by physical or logical means controls human access to an objective (29) such as a restricted area or a computer system is controlled by a data processing system (10) which has access to a store of authorised users (14) and a store of complex images (15), specifically images of human faces. Each authorised user knows certain ones of the complex images, and these key images are linked to an identity statement unique to that user. On receipt of an identity statement signifying an authorised user, a matrix of images including the key images is presented to the user on a display (12), and by means of a suitable input device (20) the user must identify which images are his key images in order to confirm authorisation and be permitted access. The user and image stores (18) may be carried in credit card form as a section of an optical disk. The high security of the system results from the inability of a person to communicate adequately to another the ability to recognise a third person or other complex image.

Abstract: Hydrophobically modified polysaccharide and synthetic polymers with molecular weights of 10,000 to 300,000 serve as associative thickeners in aqueous protective coatings to (-NORTH-)eveling without adversely affecting sag or thickening efficiency. Hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose, hydroxyethylstarch, hydroxypropylguar, etc. can be degraded with hydrogen peroxide to lower the molecular weight to the desired level. A preferred polysaccharide is hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose with a weight percent hydrophobe substitution of 0.2 to 2.0. A preferred synthetic polymer is hydrophobically modified poly(vinyl alcohol) with a molecular weight of 10,000 to 50,000.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel heterotrifunctional compounds which contain a chemically reactive group R, a photochemically reactive group Ar-N<3> and a reductively cleavable S-S-(X2) group. The chemically reactive group and the photochemically reactive group are separated by a spacer group which contains a disulphide group. The water-solubilising groups are e.g. carboxylic or sulphonic acids or derivatives thereof which are either attached to the aromatic ring or to the spacer group between the aromatic ring and the cleavable SS group. The compounds make possible a novel photoaffinity labelling process of biomolecules, the labelled biomolecule maintaining its water solubility and the labelling molecule, after anchorage to the surface of the biomolecule, preferably projecting freely into the solution. The advantageous use of these compounds is explained as exemplified by the functionalisation of biomolecules by introduction of an alkylthiol function as a special embodiment of a photoaffinity labelling process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a drawing die holder (6) for a continuous bull block for drawing tubes (4), with a drawing die (8) accommodated in the drawing die holder and with a guide (9), arranged ahead of the said die in the drawing direction, for the centralised feeding of the feed tube into the drawing die. In order to ensure that, on the one hand, the transition zone between the drawing point and the outside diameter of the feed tube slides through the guide without problems and that, nevertheless, the guide encloses the feed tube with sufficient accuracy to ensure that it is fed to the drawing die in an optimum manner, it is proposed that the guide consist of a two-roller set (9) which is calibrated to correspond to the outside diameter of the feed tube (4) and the rollers (10) of which, which are supported in a manner which allows them to rotate freely, can be moved together and apart transversely to their axes by power actuation (11, 12). <IMAGE>

Abstract: This application is to improve the data processing efficiency in a system including plural image processing apparatus and a network connecting these apparatus. Reduced image data in the disk 11 of the work station WS4 are transferred through the LAN 6 to the work station WS1. The work station WS1 edits the transferred reduced image data and transfers the content of editing alone through the LAN 6 to the work station WS4, which regenerates the original image from the transferred content of editing, the reduced image data and the encoded data, and prints the original image in edited state. The application involves the compression of image data with the JBIG standard.

Abstract: Scrap rubber automobile tires, oil soluble plastics, as well as waste motor oil are disposed of by the process of the subject invention without polluting the nation's environment. Further, useful product synthesis gas, reducing gas, or fuel gas is produced. The rubber from the rubber tires and/or oil soluble plastics are dissolved in the waste motor oil to produce a homogeneous pumpable tire-oil which is separated from undissolved tire belt material containing undissolved rubber and/or oily materials, solid residue, and off-gas comprising light hydrocarbons having a maximum atmospheric boiling point of 454°C (850°F), and H₂S. The undissolved tire belt material is coked to produce off-gas, inorganic materials and carbon black. Off-gas from the liquefaction and coking reactors is cooled to produce organic condensate. The tire oil, carbon black, and condensate are mixed together and introduced into a partial oxidation gas generator for the production of synthesis gas, reducing gas, or fuel gas.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for recovering metal values from ores is described. Comminuted ores are mixed with a liquid to form a pulp. A plurality of streams of pulp are then projected against one another, thereby causing erosion of ore particles in the pulp. A pair of pulp streams preferably emit through nozzles 68, 70 which are coaxially aligned with each other. The nozzles are located in any impact chamber 66. Gas may be supplied to the impact chamber through a gas inlet 72. The chamber may be kept at an elevated pressure, and the gas may be selected in order to facilitate the reaction of reagents in the pulp with the ore. Pulp from the impact chamber passes into a co-axial vertical tube assembly 78,80 from where it passes back to a tank 50 for continued treatment.

Abstract: A free-space optical communications system for transmitting data between an aircraft computer system (14) and a ground-based computer system (12). The system includes a pair of corresponding optical transmitters (36) and optical receivers (38) that transmit and receive optical signals transmitted between the two computer systems. Included within each optical transmitter is one or more light-emitting diodes (42) that produce optical signals corresponding to the data to be transmitted. A beam-forming prism (44) is bonded directly to the light-emitting diodes to direct the optical signal uniformly over a target area. The optical receiver includes one or more infrared windows (50) to reduce the amount of ambient light received by the optical receiver. A compound parabolic concentrator (64) collects light transmitted from the optical transmitter and directs the light onto an avalanche photodiode (66), which includes thermal bias compensation. An AC network couples the output signal of the photodiode to a transimpedance amplifier (70). An optional optical shroud (34) surrounds the optical transmitters and receivers to further reduce the amount of ambient light that is received by the optical receivers.
