Title: Measurement systems and methods for determining component particle concentrations in a liquid
Inventor: LOVETTE SPENCER M
IPC: G01N15/02
Filed: 2000-02-18
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for measuring component concentration in a liquid containing relatively large particles and relatively small particles. The invention may be utilized for measuring fat and casein concentrations in a dairy product, but is not limited to such use. A polarized light beam (112) is directed through a scattering cell (120) having first and second windows (122, 124) and containing a sample of the liquid. A normal to an exterior surface of the second window (124) of the scattering cell (120) is at or near Brewster's angle with respect to the light beam (112) to reduce or eliminate reflections. A first light detector, positioned at an angle of about 5 degree to about 45 degree with respect to the light beam, detects scattered light from a first component of the liquid, such as fat particles. A second light detector, positioned at an angle of about 130 degree to about 160 degree with respect to the light beam, detects scattered light from a second component of the liquid, such as casein particles. When the liquid is a dairy product, the detector signals are representative of fat and casein concentrations. Component concentrations of a dairy product may be measured without requiring the use of a chemical diluent.

Patent AU-3624101-A (AU)
Title: Ram air inflated wing
Inventor: LYNN PETER ROBERT
IPC: B64C31/06
Filed: 2001-02-09
Abstract: A wing for a traction kite, etc comprises a plurality of cells formed by chordwise-extending ribs (3), valved openings (6) to the cells allowing ram air to inflate the wing. By changing the initial cut-out of the material forming the cells near wing tips (7, 8), compared with that of the cells central to the wing, it is possible to alter the aerodynamic forces at wing tips (7, 8). This allows attachment of flying lines (9, 10) to wing tips (7, 8) only, despite the wing having no framing to maintain its spanwise shape under the loading of flying lines (9, 10). The increased aerodynamic forces at wing tips (7, 8) are achieved by making the aerofoil profiles of the cells progressively more reflexive towards wing tips (7, 8), by giving wing tips (7, 8) a residual twist increasing their angle of incidence, by placing the centres of pressure of the cells near wing tips (7, 8) somewhat forward of the pivot line of the wing, etc.

Title: Discharge valve
Inventor: FROST DOUGLAS ROBERT DAVID
IPC: E03D1/14
Filed: 1995-10-23
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB95/02493 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 8, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 8, 1997 PCT Filed Oct. 23, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/14479 PCT Pub. Date May 17, 1996An improved discharge valve comprises an upper housing, an upwardly movable main valve assembly within the housing and forming with the upper part thereof a variable volume upper chamber, a restricted passage between the upper chamber and the exterior thereof, an outlet leading down from the lower part of the housing, a seat for the main valve assembly at the entry to the outlet so that, in the lowered position of the main valve assembly, the outlet is blocked against ingress of fluid in which the device is immersed, and a pilot stem actuable remotely from the housing to put the upper chamber in free communication with the outlet. The arrangement being such that, once such free communication is established, fluid escapes the upper chamber and the change in relative pressures above and below the main valve assembly causes the latter to unseat thereby permitting flow of the immersing fluid into the outlet and its substantially complete discharge. The cessation of flow of the immersing fluid allows the main valve assembly to revert to its seated position with the pilot stem cutting off free communication, and air penetrates the upper chamber and on replenishment of immersing fluid, a net downward pressure is created on the main valve assembly to keep it seated. The pilot valve has a hollow stem communicating to atmosphere above the normal full set level of fluid in the cistern. The main valve assembly and the hollow stem define therebetween a hollow annulus.

Patent AU-4026385-A (AU)
Title: A double pump adapted for use as an artificial heart
Inventor: LUNDBACK STIG
IPC: A61M60/882
Filed: 1985-03-22
Abstract: A double pump adapted for use as an artificial heart includes two ventricle-simulating chambers that are provided with respective inlets and outlets having valves incorporated therein and that are separated by a common partitioning wall structure. The wall structure has sections that are driven away from each other to reduce the volumes of respective ventricle chambers and expel liquid from the chambers through the outlets. The wall structure can also move laterally in response to differences in pressure between the chambers and hence change the volumetric ratio between them. This ensures a balanced action between the two halves of the heart- simulating pump during a systole phase and a diastole phase. The link mechanism is actuated by a cord through a motor, although only in one direction in the pressure phase, and hence the aforementioned changed volumes are readjusted primarily through the pressure exerted by the inflowing fluid. The pump may also include a variable volume atrium-simulating chamber communicating with the inlet to each ventricle-simulating chamber and having volume that is controlled in part by an externally acting gas pressure that varies in accordance with changes in the volumes of the ventricle chambers.

Title: Splicing compressed packetized digital video streams
Inventor: CHEN DAVID
IPC: H04N21/2665
Filed: 1997-10-17
Abstract: A secondary packetized data stream, such as a commercial, is spliced with a primary packetized data stream, such as a network television program. The system does not require decompression of the data in the primary data stream, and is particularly suitable for use at a cable system headend to allow the insertion of commercials from local businesses into a nationally broadcast television program. When a start signal is received, a pre-splicing packet of the primary stream is determined. The pre-splicing packet is the packet closest to the start time which carries an anchor frame (e.g., I or P frame) start code. To prevent a potential discontinuity at the decoder, the pre-splicing packet is processed to discard the anchor frame data, and to insert a number of stuffing bytes which is equal to the number of bytes discarded into an adaptation field of the pre-splicing packet. To further maintain continuity at the decoder, identifying data of the primary stream such as PID and PSI data, is retrieved and provided to the secondary stream. A number of null packets are inserted into the output stream at the transition point between the main program and the commercial to prevent a buffer overflow at a decoder which receives the output stream. <IMAGE>
