Abstract: A seat belt retractor (10) includes a vehicle deceleration sensing assembly (40) which is operable at a plurality of different inclined orientations to block withdrawal of belt webbing (32) from a spool (110). The spool (110) is rotatable about a first axis (62) of the retractor. The sensing assembly (40) includes a first inertia member (222) supported for movement on a second inertia member (224). The second inertia member is supported for pivotal movement about an axis (260) which extends parallel to an adjustment axis (30) of a vehicle seat back (22) in which the retractor (10) is mounted. The first inertia member (222) is movable to move a pawl (180, 200) into engagement with a ratchet (114-116, 130) rotatable about the first axis (62) to block rotation of the spool (110) in a belt withdrawal direction (124). <MATH>

Abstract: An electrical power supply (10) is provided with a regulation stage (15) which on being supplied at its input with a dc input voltage with a significant ripple component (VS1_OUT), outputs a dc output voltage (VS2_OUT) at a level substantially equal to the dc input voltage value at the troughs of the input ripple component (VT). As a result of this operation, the power dissipated in the stage is minimised. In order to regulate the dc output voltage (VS2_OUT) to be at a particular level, this output voltage is compared to a reference to produce a control signal (S) that is fed back to an upstream regulation stage (14). This upstream stage (14) then serves to vary the level of the trough voltage at the input of the downstream regulation stage (15). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for radiation beam therapy delivery system normalization and dose calibration. A prescribed treatment plan is compared to a database of pre-existing and pre-calibrated treatment plans. Upon existence of a matching plan, appropriate calibration factors are assigned to the delivery system monitors according to the pre-existing plan. Variations in delivery system operation are corrected by independent correction of all delivery system monitors established by standard relative calibration taken prior to patient treatment. The advantages of the present invention are particularly significant for proton therapy facilities containing a plurality of delivery systems. The method permits a prescribed treatment to be administered with accuracy not only at the station associated with the initial treatment planning, but at any available delivery station.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for disabling the effect of copy protection signals embedded in video signals, wherein the detection and modification of the copy protection signals is accomplished in the RF domain rather than in the baseband video domain as typically accomplished at the present time. To this end, various embodiments are disclosed for deriving a timing control signal from the modulated RF carrier signal, which timing control signal is indicative of the television lines which contain the copy protection signals. Several techniques in the RF domain responsive to the timing control signal are disclosed for replacing, attenuating, suppressing, pulse narrowing or otherwise modifying the modulated RF carrier signal during the interval of the copy protection signals to disable the affects thereof, to allow the making of acceptable recordings during demodulation subsequently by, for example, a record VCR. Also disclosed are means for adding copy protection signals to an RF carrier signal modulated with a video signal by modulating, for example, the protection signals onto the RF carrier signal in the RF domain.

Abstract: This invention provides an air freshener dispenser device with a nonporous wicking feature, which consists of (a) a first container with an upside open end, and a downside closed end with a sharp piercing structure extending up from the interior bottom surface, (b) a second container which is inverted and internally-nested within the first container, with an upside closed end comprising a vapor-emanating means, and a downside end which is sealed with an impermeable membrane, and (c) a reservoir of liquid air freshener medium enclosed within the second container. The coextensive sidewalls of the two containers are in a capillary spacing proximity. For activation of the dispenser device into an operational mode, the second container is adjusted until the impermeable membrane is breached by the sharp-structure at the bottom of the first container. The released air freshener medium is transported by capillary action to the vapor-emanating surface for evaporation into the atmosphere.
