In practicing the method, the ability of the fully treated cast iron to crystallize is measured and the result of this measurement is used for feedback control of the supply of inoculating agent, this supply being effected at the last possible stage of the treatment process, so as to optimize the amount of inoculating agent introduced to the system. Since the inoculating a gent will normally include FeSi, it will also fed back and used to increase or reduce the addition of agents for adjusting the carbon and/or silicon contents of the iron as necessary.

Title: Corkscrew with a crank to effect turning
Inventor: YOUNG JAMES
IPC: B67B7/04
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: A corkscrew comprises a tubular turning cap 3, a tubular cork guide 1, a crank arm 5 to effect turning of the metal screw 2 and a wheel 4, attached to one end of the crank, to grip during turning. The tubular cork guide has a cap limit stop 6. The screw is moulded at one end to the tubular cap 3. The crank can pivot between a first operating position and a second storage position. In use, the guide 1 is positioned over the neck of a corked bottle and the cap 3 is turned clockwise using the crank 5 by gripping wheel 4, so that the screw 2 enters into the cork. When the screw 2 is fully inserted, the cap 3 meets the stop 6 and further clockwise turning draws the cork out of the bottle and into the guide 1, which grips the cork. In this way the cork is removed by one continuous movement. The cork can then be removed from the corkscrew by turning anticlockwise. The corkscrew is suitable for use by the elderly and people with arthritis or similar disabilities.

Title: Compression of images in gray level
Inventor: ZLOTNICK AVIAD
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2000-08-21
Abstract: A method for compressing an electronic image of an object including gray-level information includes processing the gray-level information to identify a kernel of pixels in the image having respective gray-level values darker than a given kernel threshold. A locus of the pixels in the kernel is stored in a memory, along with the gray-level values of the pixels in the kernel, in order to reconstruct a gray-level image of the object by applying the stored gray-level values to the pixels in the locus.

IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1999-04-08
Abstract: This invention relates to an individually wrapped absorbent article. The absorbent article has first and second ends, first and second sides, and first and second major surfaces. The second major surface of the absorbent article has a garment attachment adhesive secured thereto. A release strip is removable secured to the garment attachment adhesive to prevent premature contamination of the garment attachment adhesive before the absorbent article is secured to an undergarment. The absorbent article is wrapped in a wrapper having first and second ends, first and second sides, and first and second major surfaces. A first major surface of the wrapper is positioned adjacent to the release strip with the first and second ends of the wrapper extending beyond the first and second ends, respectively, of the absorbent article. In addition, the first and second sides of the wrapper extend beyond the first and second sides, respectively, of the absorbent article. An attachment device is secured to the second major surface of the wrapper approximate the first ends thereof. The wrapper and absorbent article are then folded together about two fold axes such that the first major surface of the wrapper contacts the attachment device and is releasable secured thereto to form a package. The package has first and second side edges aligned approximately parallel to the first and second sides of the absorbent article. The first and second side edges of the package are bonded together by first and second seals, respectively, and at least one line of perforations is formed in the wrapper which provides an easy open feature for the package. Alternatively, the package can contain two lines of perforations which are aligned adjacent to the first and second seals which allow the wrapper to be torn open into three separate and distinct sections.

Title: Fish grading device
Inventor: JOHNSON IVOR GILBERT
IPC: A01K61/90
Filed: 2001-01-11
Abstract: The device 1 is formed from an array of generally rectangular apertures 2, each of which is formed by two long tubes 3 and two short tubes 4 of plastics material mounted to a loop of fishing net 5. Each loop of fishing net 5 is formed by crimping the ends of the loop by means of a metal crimp 6. Each of the tubes 3, 4 can rotate freely about its longitudinal axis, so that a fish brushing against a tube 3, 4 will cause the tube to rotate, and will therefore avoid becoming snagged on the tube. When such a fish grading device 1 is included in a fishing net and the net is dragged through the water, small fish are able to swim through the rectangular apertures 2, whereas larger fish are not. Thus only fish of a desired minimum size are caught.

Title: System and method for managing storage resources in a clustered computing environment
Inventor: TAWIL AHMAD H
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 2001-03-07
Abstract: A method for managing storage resources in a clustered computing environment to avoid the problems caused by a SCSI reset, comprises holding a reservation on a storage resource for a first node of said environment, converting a SCSI reset command, issued by another node to release the reservation of the first node when it is believed to be inoperable, into a third party process logout which results in the reservation being released without the SCSI reset occurring. In an alternative embodiment a SCSI reset command is converted to a SCSI persistent reserve out command with a service action of CLEAR which again releases the reservation without employing SCSI resets.

Title: Improvements in travelling wave amplifiers
Inventor: ZELLEY CHRISTOPHER ANDREW
IPC: H03F3/60
Filed: 2001-03-27
Abstract: A travelling wave amplifier (TWA) comprising two or more amplification modules, the inputs of adjacent amplification modules being connected together by a first inductance component of a first characteristic impedance, a second inductance component of a second characteristic impedance and a third inductance component of substantially the first characteristic impedance, the first characteristic impedance being greater than the second characteristic impedance. The outputs of adjacent modules may be similarly connected together by first, second and third inductance components. The characteristic impedance of the second inductance components is preferably substantially equal to that of the circuits to which the TWA is connected, e.g. 50  L  . The first and third inductance components have a characteristic impedance of 100  L  . Such a TWA allows balancing of phase velocities between inputs and outputs of the amplification modules, connection of these around via holes, and extends the frequency capability of the TWA.

Title: Surveillance system with remote receiving unit.
Inventor: STUBBS GEOFFREY
IPC: H04N7/18
Filed: 2001-04-25
Abstract: A surveillance system comprises a Remote Management Unit (RMU) or local unit positioned at the location to be monitored, and an associated Receiving Communication Unit (RCU) or receiving unit, distanced from the monitored location. The local unit serves to control, locally and autonomously, monitoring devices such as cameras and other sensors (smoke, temperature and infrared sensors and so on; see Figures 2, 3). Data may be input via keyboards (see Figures 2, 3) and the monitoring data is stored at each local unit (RMU) for transmission to the receiving unit (RCU). Each local unit may be armed or disarmed either locally via the keypads or remotely via the receiving unit. To enhance security, data transmitted to the receiving unit may be watermarked. Also, images captured by the camera may be 'weighted' according to their relative importance using a selection algorithm, allowing for the most important or relevant images to be transmitted first. In addition, the system has the facility of transmit low resolution, highly compressed images first, followed by higher resolution (low compression) images later, on demand.
