Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods, software, devices and APIs for defining touch events for application level software. Furthermore, some embodiments are directed to simplifying the recognition of single and multiple touch events for applications running in multi-touch enabled devices. To simplify the recognition of single and multiple touch events, each view within a particular window can be configured as either a multi-touch view or a single touch view. Furthermore, each view can be configured as either an exclusive or a non-exclusive view. Depending on the configuration of a view, touch events in that and other views can be either ignored or recognized. Ignored touches need not be sent to the application. Selectively ignoring touches can allow for simpler software elements that do not take advantage of advanced multi touch features to be executed at the same device and time as more complex software elements.

Abstract: A light-collecting device in the form of, for example, a rectangularly-shaped body having a so-called "fluorescent plate" with at least one light-exit window is comprised of a solid carrier material having an index of refraction greater than one, such as a polar, water-containing amorphous material based on a polysilicate or a polyphosphate and containing organic or inorganic fluorescent particles therein, which have finite dipole moments with different values in the basic and the excited state, with the fluorescent particles being substantially uniformly distributed throughout the carrier material. In embodiments where the fluorescent particles are organic, an amphiphilic additive, such as a soap, is colloidally dissolved in the carrier material in such a manner that the fluorescent particles are each surrounded by a colloid particle. The disclosed device is useful as a solar collector, an optical indicia transmitter or an image brightener for passive displays.

Abstract: In a combustion engine, operating medium which is preferably air is inducted and compressed before fuel is supplied and combustion takes place while performing work. In response to engine load, a regulatably great portion of the maximum amount of air sucked in at all times is allowed to escape without being compressed. Only the amount of air temporarily required is compressed and supplied with fuel. In this way the working volume of the engine is regulated in response to the actual load. To achieve this, there is included in the engine for each work chamber an exhaust valve which is adapted to be open during a regulatably great portion of the initial phase of the compression movement of the operating means of the engine.

Abstract: An improved bag construction, and a method of bag forming, are disclosed which gives an economical yet strong, burst-and leak-resistant closure without the necessity of sewing or use of expensive stepped cut tubes. The bag is formed using a tube having opposed, interconnected front and rear panels, wherein a pair of laterally spaced, parallel cut lines are provided adjacent the top margin of the tube which define opposed first and second marginal flaps respectively in the front and rear panels. ln bag-forming operations, the first flap is folded and glued against the outer face of the front panel, and the closure is completed by folding and gluing the second flap over the open end of the tube in a manner to refold the first flap and engage the outer face of the first panel. In another embodiment, a filling valve is inserted between the front and rear panels adjacent the closure end during the bagforming operation, so as to provide a valve bag. The closure construction evenly distributes potentially distructive impact forces over a relatively large portion of the bag panels, to thus materially increase bag strength at the critical closure areas.
