Abstract: A battery assembling method includes a lead dispenser/heater unit, cover positioner, container positioner, and lead feeder. A battery container with battery plates contained therein is retained by the container positioner. A battery cover is retained by the cover positioner. Molten lead is retained within the lead dispenser/heater unit. The exposed areas of the lead dispenser/heater unit are preferably flooded with an inert gas to prevent dressing of the molten lead. A container heating platen is disposed on a top of the lead dispenser/heater unit and a cover heating platen on a bottom thereof. The container positioner brings the battery container in contact with the container heating platen and the cover positioner brings the battery cover in contact with the cover heating platen. Molten lead is dispensed into the battery cover; the lead dispenser/heater unit is withdrawn; and the battery container is sealed against the battery cover while the lugs of the battery plates are inserted into molten lead in the battery cover. The lead dispenser/heater unit is filled with lead from a lead feeder.

Abstract: A servo type volumetric flowmeter having instrumental characteristics improved from low flow rate zone to high flow rate zone. The volumetric flowmeter (1) comprises a pair of first and second rotors (6, 7) rotating by the differential pressure of fluid in a measuring chamber (3) disposed in a casing (2) to deliver a specified volume of received fluid and measures the flow rate from the rotation of the rotors. The first rotor (6) is coupled with a servomotor (17). Pressures at pressure detection ports (10, 11) provided at the inlet (8) and outlet (9) of the volumetric flowmeter (1) are introduced through piping to a differential manometer (12) where the differential pressure is determined and a servomechanism drives the servomotor (17) such that a differential pressure signal will be equal to k(Ϝ/2g)V2 (where, Ϝ: density of fluid being measured, V: rotational speed of the rotor, g: gravitational acceleration, k: a constant dependent on the structural dimensions of the flowmeter and the frictional coefficient of the pipe). Rotation of the rotor (6) at that time is taken out as a flow rate signal by a flow rate transmitter (19).

Abstract: A method, machine-readable storage medium embodying computer-readable code and automated system for assaying or monitoring the extent of joint or bone deformity reported by a summarized score that may include joint space narrowing, bone erosion and periarticular osteoporosis in a joint-degenerative or joint-damaging disease in a subject are disclosed. From a digitized image of one of the subject's straight bone terminated with a joint such as fingers, coordinates of right and left bone contours of a selected middle or proximal phalange are determined, and these coordinates are in turn used to determine the coordinates of a minimum width in the middle region of the phalange and one or more apices in a region adjacent at least one side of a joint of the selected phalange. These latter coordinates are used in selecting a reference joint contour representing normal-bone contour for that phalange, or the contour of the patient phalange from an earlier x-ray image. Guided by the reference joint contour, a region of the selected joint of the patient is analyzed to assay or monitor the extent of joint or bone deformity in the subject.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, a system and a server for automatically discovering the common Multimedia Service Capability, and computer program. This solution avoid unnecessary use of the radio interface and is based on making use of the circuit switched network, e.g. the Intelligent network IN, as trigger to the packet switched network to find out about the calling as well as the called user's multimedia capabilities during a voice call. If there is a positive capability discovery result out of this for both users, the network will send a message to each of the two mobile phones that they should notify the users e.g. by displaying an icon above a soft button. It can be that the phone displays a shared multimedia-Image icon, if this was the only commonly supported capability of both users, up to a whole range of more or less complicated SMM services.
