Abstract: A novel plastic carrier for carrying a plurality of containers and a method of forming same is provided by the present invention.  The carrier includes a handle portion being of a single ply of plastic material and a pair of container engaging portions freely depending from the handle portion at a joint.  Each engaging portion has a plurality of apertures therethrough for carrying an associated container.  One of the engaging portions is integrally formed with the handle portion and the other engaging portion is joined thereto at the joint.  The carriers are preferably formed continuously.  To form the carrier, first and second container engaging portions and the handle portion are stamped out of a single sheet of plastic material, and zipper strips, if provided, are formed thereon.  The engaging portions are connected together and the second engaging portion and the handle portion are connected together.  Thereafter, the first engaging portion is folded over onto the second engaging portion along a fold line.  The first and second engaging portions are welded together along an edge thereof opposite to the fold line.  Next, the fold line is severed.  Finally, the completed carriers are collected onto a roll.  A plurality of apertures may be formed during the stamping step or may be stamped after the container engaging portions are folded over onto each other.

Filed: 1996-08-22
Granted: 2005-01-11
Abstract: The window unit (10) is formed by a window (11) and by a frame (12) with a specific frame profile. The frame (12) is formed, as a compression molding, by a primary profile part (14) and by a secondary profile part (15). The primary profile part (14) has three profile sections (16 . . . 18 ), of which a f first prof file part (16) is adjacent to the edge (13) of the window (12) [sic] , and of which the second and the third profile sections (17; 18) each adjoin one side of the first profile section (16) and are each adjacent to that surface region of the window (11) which borders the edge (13) of the window (11). The primary profile part (14) is produced from a material which does not bond with the window (11), but whose dimensional stability is of such a magnitude as to ensure positive locking between the frame (12) and the window (11). The secondary profile part (15) is arranged in a frame-profile region which serves for the abutment of the window unit (10) against a structural part, and is produced from a material which is of lower dimensional stability than the material of the primary shaped [sic] part (14).

Title: Corona discharge ion source for analytical instruments
Inventor: TURNER ROBERT BRIAN
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 1997-01-31
Granted: 2004-11-02
Abstract: An ion mobility spectrometer comprises an ion mobility cell (10) into which molecules of a sample to be analysed arc introduced. The ion mobility cell (10) is doped with ions produced by a corona discharge ionisation source (40). In one mode of operation, the corona discharge ionisation source (40) operates to produce a continual dopant stream, and in a second mode of operation, the corona discharge ionisation source (40) produces dopant ions selectively. In the non-continuous mode of operation, the ion mobility cell (10) may be doped with chemical dopant ions instead, switching between the two dopant regimes being accomplished very rapidly. The ion mobility spectrometer is particularly suitable for the detection of explosive compounds and narcotics, the ion mobility spectrum of explosives doped with ions from the corona discharge ionisation source differing from the ion mobility spectrum of such explosive compounds doped with chemical dopants.

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for matching a rate of data bits, in a matrix of data bits interleaved by a predetermined interleaving process, to a desired rate by deletion of redundant data bits or repetition of data bits derived from the matrix, includes steps of determining in a non-interleaved matrix of the data bits a pattern of bits to be deleted or repeated to provide the desired data rate, decoding an address of each bit in said pattern in a manner inverse to the interleaving process to produce a respective address of the bit in the matrix of interleaved data bits, and deleting or repeating the respective bit in the interleaved data bits in dependence upon the respective address. The address decoding is performed in the same manner as a coding of addresses for producing the interleaved data bits from the non-interleaving matrix of the data bits. The specification also discloses an advantageous interleaving process for channel interleaving in a 3rd generation CDMA wireless communications system, a shuffling method for a second stage of interleaving in such a system, and how the raft matching can be conveniently applied to turbo-coded data coded.

A trip coil employs the trip signal to actuate the operating mechanism to move the separable contacts to the open position. A  closing mechanism produces a close signal, and a close actuator mechanism employs the close signal to actuate the operating mechanism to move the separable contacts to the closed position. The trip unit includes a microprocessor-based firmware routine for selectively enabling and disabling the close actuator mechanism as a function of the signals corresponding to the electrical conditions.
