Patent EP-0913710-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BARBUTI OTTORINO
IPC: G01V8/12
Filed: 1998-10-05
Abstract: Optoelectronic barrier for accident prevention
operating by interruption of rays, which is integrated
with an automatic calibration system such that the level
of irradiated power indicated by a "display" is set at
the lower limit of the alarm trigger threshold
appropriate to the predetermined distance between TX and
RX. The self-calibration takes place upon first
activation and upon each reactivation and can be
corrected manually by a predetermined amount. The
automatic system is implemented on the same card of the
section TX or RX, while, in the case of barriers which
have already been constructed and equipped with
calibration which can be regulated manually, insertion is
effected in the central control and control unit along
with the numerical display and along with the various
components for the accessory surfaces, this central unit
forming an integral part of the sections RX - TX, because
it is connected to these and essential to the operation
of the assembly for a degree of security of level 4.

Abstract: The prosthesis, constituted entirely or in part from an
apertured structure, is located in a chamber (11) which is
taken to a level of sub-atmospheric pressure (27). Once the
aforesaid level of sub-atmospheric pressure has been reached, a
liquid (23), possibly containing pharmacological agents, is
introduced into the chamber. Drawn by the sub-atmospheric
pressure, the liquid saturates the apertured structure of the
prosthesis. In this way, the risk is eliminated of air being
trapped in the aforesaid apertured structure that could give
rise to the formation of blood clots after implantation of the
prosthesis. The aforesaid liquid can contain drugs that
penetrate the prosthesis, performing their therapeutic action
locally and over time after implantation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel heat-resistant
amylomaltase, a gene encoding the same, and a
process for producing the same. The amylomaltase generates
a cyclic glucan by an intramolecular

Abstract: A spacecraft includes a plurality of thrusters (1-8)
mounted at predetermined locations on a spacecraft
structure, individual ones of the plurality of thrusters
being fired for generating a torque about a desired axis.
The firing of a thruster is partitioned into two firings
that are offset in time by an amount Δt, wherein  Δt = (1/2)
x (1/F) x SF , where F is a dominant modal frequency, in
Hertz, for any particular axis (nominally the 1st mode) of
the spacecraft structure, and where SF is a scale factor
that is adjustable about the frequency. In a presently
preferred embodiment the thruster is a low thrust thruster
that is mounted on a solar array panel, and the thrusters
are fired in pairs.

Abstract: The printer of the present invention has a print head with a plurality of nozzle arrays formed thereon, each nozzle array including a plurality of nozzles (1-4) arranged at predetermined pitches in the secondary scanning direction. The printer records an image by an interlacing method using only some of the nozzles (1-3 or 2-4) in each nozzle array. The nozzle block (1-3 or 2-4) in the nozzle array used for formation of dots is changed in every primary scan, and the amount of feed (L) in the secondary scan is varied with the change of the nozzle block. Both the nozzle block (1-3 or 2-4) and the amount of secondary scan (L) are periodically changed in preset sequences. The variation in amount of secondary scan reduces banding due to the accumulated errors in secondary scans. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) includes a multilayer
black matrix system for improving the contrast of
displayed images. The black matrix system includes at
least one layer of a material that has variable amounts
of chemical elements. By, for example, varying "x" and
"y" in SiO x N y , the refractive index "n" of adjacent SiO x N y 
layers can be slowly varied through the thickness of the
system so that the refractive index adjacent the
substrate substantially matches that of the substrate and
so that there are no overly large refractive index
differences between adjacent layers in the system. This
reduces light reflections off of the black matrix system.

Abstract: An extended band, multiple channel multiplexer (10) for use with satellite
communication systems utilizes a low attenuation, contiguous diplexer (18)
containing contiguous diplexer filters (18a) to combine two sections (11a) and
(11b) of the multiplexer respectively containing contiguous channel filters (14a)
and (14b). The contiguous diplexer filters (18a) are tuned in tandem with channel
filters (14a) and (14b) to provide contiguous multiplexing. This approach takes
advantage of the constructive interaction bnetween these filters to realise an
equivalent contiguous mulitplexer. This enables realisation of a wide band
contiguous multiplexer, which heretofore was impossible to tune. The contiguous
diplexer eliminates spurious modes of the channel and diplexer filters, spurious
waveguide modes, and out of band interation between the two portions of the
multiplexer.

Abstract: A system and method for creating a discontinuity in a stack (12) of interfolded sheets in which folding rolls (30a,30b) cooperate to interfold staggered sheets supplied in two streams of sheets, each of which is severed from a web (14a,14b) of material. When a desired sheet count is attained, a sheet (75) in one of the streams of sheets is folded onto itself so as to create a discontinuity in one of the streams of sheets. The folded sheet (75) is formed by maintaining a leading portion (74) of the sheet in engagement with a separating one roll (26a) while maintaining a trailing portion of the sheet in engagement with another roll (22a), with the two rolls being positioned to form a nip therebetween and rotating in opposite directions. Once the sheet (75) has attained a predetermined position on the two rolls (26a,22a), engagement of the leading portion (74) of the sheet (75) with the separating roll (26a) is released while engagement of the sheet with the other roll (22a) is maintained to define a crease in the sheet, with the leading portion (74) of the sheet (75) being folded back onto the trailing portion of the sheet (75). The folded sheet forms a gap in the sheet supplied in one of the streams of sheets which, when the sheets are supplied to the interfolding rolls (30a,30b), functions to create a discontinuity in the interfolded stack (12) to facilitate separation of a portion of the stack from the remainder of the stack. <IMAGE>
