Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring a gaseous environment for the presence of cellular material capable of providing a measure of presence and/or numbers of cellular microorganisms, such as bacterial cells, in a large volume of air such as in a warehouse or production facility or in an open air location where bacterial presence is suspected. The method and apparatus are particularly suited for determining the likelihood of pathogenic material being present in an environment by batch or on-line measurement of cell numbers. On-line measurement provides continuous monitoring of an environment for presence of pathogens. The device includes a continuous flow luminometer preferably fed by a cyclone or high velocity virtual impactor and luminescence reagents which detect the amount of ATP or adenylate kinase present in a sample of air.

Abstract: A disposable, absorbent garment, such as a diaper, having an absorbent core (14) and stretchable, substantially liquid impermeable web (12). The core (14) is attached to the web (12) by a strip of adhesive (32) extending in a longitudinal direction along the bottom surface of the core (14). The web (12) is folded around the exterior of the core (14) and includes notches formed in opposing sides of the crotch portion of the web (12). When folded about the core (14), the notched areas form a longitudinally extending opening along the top surface of the core (14). A plurality of elastic bands are affixed along the crotch portion of the web (12) so as to extend substantially parallel to, but inwardly of, the notched areas. The elastic bands constrict the web (12) adjacent the notches to form cuffs which fit snugly about the wearer's legs. Adhesive tabs, or another similar closure device, is attached on opposite sides of the web (12) to hold the garment together about the wearer's torso. Alternatively, opposing sides of the garment may be sealed together to form a pant. Elastomeric material is affixed to strategic positions of the web (12) to increase the elastic force of the web (12) when stretched, to enable the garment to better conform to the wearer's body. Optionally, heat shrinkable film may be disposed about the opening formed by the notches in order to raise the edges of the opening and form a pocket for containing solid waste materials.

Abstract: The invention relates to echo cancelling methods used in telephone systems, more specifically to echo cancelling methods based on two filters. The echo cancelling method according to the invention employs two adaptive filters, namely, a main filter (10) and a background filter (50). The purpose of the background filter (50) is to guard against errors in the main filter (10) model. The main and background filter coefficients are updated on different conditions, and the residual signals (L_RES1, L_RES2) produced by the filters are compared to each other. The set of filter coefficients used for generating the echo canceller's output signal (S_OUT) is selected on the basis of said comparison of the residual signals. The selection of the set of filter coefficients is carried out either by copying the background filter coefficients to the main filter or by interchanging the background and main filter functions. Operation of the echo canceller in a double talk situation is enhanced by comparing the residual signals produced by the two filters frequency band by frequency band, thus avoiding errors caused by echo-resembling correlations caused by random loud sounds in double talk situations. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is related to a digital, wired or wireless, communication system constituting a network of multiple nodes. The network comprises a central node. The central node controls all the communication in the network. In such a system, information related to the system itself or to the nodes in the system can be distributed by the central node among the peripheral nodes in the network or kept in a database in the central node, which database is accessible on request from the peripheral nodes in the network. The information can be conveyed to the central node from the peripheral nodes, either commanded by the central node itself or on request from a peripheral node, triggered by an internal event in the peripheral node, e.g. a change of state having external consequences. The invention provides a mechanism for efficient distribution of relevant information in such a system. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A ball and socket joint ( 1 ) is provided with a pivoting angle sensor ( 9 ) for detecting the relative angular position of the joint housing ( 4 ) and the ball pivot ( 3 ). The pivoting angle alpha of the joint ball ( 2 ) is detected by a measuring means comprising a magnet ( 8 ) and a magnetic field sensor ( 9 ). The position and the size of the magnet ( 8 ) as well as the position and the size of the recess of the joint ball ( 2 ) are selected for each type of ball and socket joint from one series such that when the particular nominal pivoting angle alpha<SUB>m </SUB>of the ball and socket joint ( 1 ) is reached, the angle kappa of the magnetic field lines ( 12 ) passing through the magnetic field sensor ( 9 ) approximately equals a constant kappa<SUB>m</SUB>, which applies to the entire series. As a result, one and the same magnetic field sensor ( 9 ) can be used within the entire series of ball and socket joints for a plurality of types and it can be arranged in one and the same sensor housing ( 7 ) as well as at one and the same location at the ball and socket joint ( 1 ) for a plurality of types. Among other things, considerable cost savings are achieved because of the resulting reduction in the number of parts and the simplification of the design of the series of ball and socket joints.
