Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE     A system for automatically logging the interaction between a plurality of objects.  Small, self-contained transmitting beacon units are attached to a first set of objects.  These beacon units transmit a uniquely coded signal at prescribed intervals.  A small, self-contained portable transceiving unit is attached to a second set of objects.  The second set of objects typically moves in, about, and among the first set of objects, although either set may move relative to the other.  The signals transmitted by the beacon units have a limited range.  If the transceiving unit is within this range for a specified period of time, the unique code associated with the transmitted signal is time-logged into a memory element contained within the portable receiving unit.  At the end of a specified period of time, such as a work day, the contents of the memory of the transceiving unit may be examined to determine the objects with which an interaction has been had during the time period.  A computer may be used to analyze, sort, and generate reports from the data thus logged within the transceiving units.  The system is particularly well suited for use as a time and accounting system in a custodial environment, such as a hospital or similar facility.

Abstract: ABSTRACT An  apparatus  and  associated  method  for  relieving  the pressure within a high pressure tank having an opening plugged by a  broken  safety  valve  of  a  special  type  utilizes  a mechanism acting between the annular flange of  the tank normally provided for  the  securement  of  a  valve  protector  cap  and  the  valve  to permit  pressurized  contents  confined  within  the  tank  to escape through the valve.  The special valve includes a flow passage in axial alignment with the tank opening in which the valve portion is received and defines a ball chamber in which a spherical ball is seated.  The apparatus of the invention includes a stem which is movable through the valve portion flow passage for engagement with the spherical ball  to thereby unseat the hall and open the valve  flow passage.

Abstract: AUTOMATIC UPDATE OF TOPOLOGY IN A HYBRID NETWORK         ABSTRACT            The disclosure provides improvements in effecting the routing function in a communication network operating under a distributed control protocol.  Selected nodes (control nodes) have extended memory and computing capabilities and each maintains a topology data base, other nodes (ordinary nodes) have more limited memory and computing capabilities and maintain information respecting solely local topology.          The method of the invention provides for maintaining the topology data bases in the control nodes current in the face of changes in the network, provides for the selection of a particular control node from which a particular ordinary node will obtain necessary routing information and established and maintains communication between the ordinary node and the selected control node.  Control nodes identify adjacent control nodes, and upon determining changes in network status, such network status changes are communicated to the adjacent control nodes.  When a routing decision is required at an ordinary node the ordinary node refers to the single control node co-existing in the ordinary node's domain, from which to obtain information necessary for routing purposes.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE            The present invention provides a method and apparatus for assembling an insert assembly in a catalytic converter comprising a casing and an insert assembly therein.          The insert assembly comprises a columnar catalyst having a seal mat wound around the outer periphery thereof and a mesh ring attached thereto.  The seal mat is fitted in a groove provided in a receiving member for the placement of a catalyst and the catalyst is placed and positioned, with its axis substantially horizontal, on the receiving member.  A guide member is positioned adjacent to the catalyst on the same axis as the catalyst and supported from the sides thereof, the guide member having an outer inclined surface enlarged towards the catalyst.  The mesh ring is positioned on the same axis as the catalyst on the side of the guide member opposite to the side of the catalyst.  The opposite ends of the seal mat are engaged to wind the seal mat around the catalyst and the mesh ring is resiliently supported from the outside thereof.  The guide member is supported from an axial direction through said mesh ring and at the same time, is released from the side support.  The mesh ring is pushed towards the catalyst while expanding it along the outer inclined surface of the guide member, and the mesh ring is thereby fitted onto the catalyst.  With this method and apparatus, the winding of the seal mat around and the attaching of the mesh ring to the catalyst can be conducted in one step to provide a reduction in assembling time.
