Patent EP-0359137-A3 (EP)
Title: Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1989-09-08
Abstract: Data characters to be transferred from a peripheral 
device to a central processing unit are serially shifted 
into the receiver shift register of a universal 
asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART). A multiple 
byte first-in-first-out memory stores a plurality of 
data characters received by the shift register. The 
UART checks the status of each data character stored in 
the FIFO to determine whether it will trigger an 
exception. A bytes till exception register indicates 
the number of data characters remaining in the FIFO 
until an exception is encountered. Then, upon request 
by the CPU, the UART provides the count of consecutive 
valid data characters from the top of the FIFO to the 
first exception, eliminating the need to check status on 
every transferred byte. Each of the multiple channels 
of the UART includes an Initialization Register. 
Setting the appropriate bit Initialization Register of 
any UART channel allows concurrent writes to the same 
selected register in each channel's register set. This 
function reduces initialization time for all of the 
common parameters that are loaded into each channel's 
registers. The UART implements a methodology which 
allows for the processing of any control characters or 
errors received by the UART during DMA while internal 
and/or external FIFOs are being used.

Title: Periodically variable multitone generator
IPC: B06B1/02
Filed: 1989-03-23
Abstract: The invention has the aim to personalize better the sounds 
of a siren or of any other emitter used as an anti-thief 
device.

due to auditive adaptation and the difficulty of distin­
guishing the origin of the sounds.  
     The enclosed circuit diagram represents an example of the 
realization of such an emitter; the diagram also permits 
the visualization of the sounds by means of an optic tran­
sducer.

Title: Process for the embossing of textiles
IPC: D06Q1/00
Filed: 1990-05-25
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the embossing of textiles, in which mutually adjacent layers of a textile material and of a film material are pressed between two mutually opposite embossing surfaces under the effect of heat and are bonded to one another. Such known pressing processes produce embossings which are not dimensionally stable to an adequate extent during washing, ironing and drying of the textile material. The invention is aimed at an embossing process by which dimensionally more stable embossings can be produced. The process according to the invention is characterised in that a foamed film is used as the film material and the foamed film is compressed differently in different regions of its surface in order to form an embossed pattern. <IMAGE>

Title: High opacity, thin coat concept airport runway line-marking paints
IPC: C09D5/00
Filed: 1991-03-14
Abstract: Conventionally, paints which are formulated for use as markings on roads have also been used as markings on airport runways but have been found unsatisfactory since airport runway markings have special requirements. The present invention provides a high opacity thin coat concept airport runway marking paint comprising 20-60% by weight of titanium dioxide in the paint or higher to within the critical pigment volume concentration (C.P.V.C.), extenders such as Barium Sulphate, Laminar Talc, Calcite or Dolomite used alone or as blends thereof, binders such as Placticised Chlorinated Rubber, Acrylated rubber, Epoxy, Polyurethane or emulsified resins and an anti-skid aggregate comprising crushed glass particles or calcined Aluminium oxide or the like. Airport runway markings need frequent maintenance re-application of paint in order to obliterate the black marks left after contact with aircraft tyres. The high opacity paint has the advantage that it can be sprayed on at very thin film thickness thereby minimising the tendency of the build up of thick smooth film to potentially hazardous levels.
