Title: A process for the production of microcapsules
Inventor: NORTH BRIAN
IPC: B41M5/124
Filed: 1989-04-20
Abstract: In a process for the production of microcapsules by coacervation of gelatin, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and a second anionic polymer such as a polyvinylmethylether/maleic anhydride copolymer or an ethylene/maleic anhydride/copolymer, the weight ratio of gelatin:CMC is chosen to be in the range 1:0.14 to 1:0.05, and the CMC used is chosen to have a viscosity in the range of from 50 to 140 mPas (cps), when measured in 6.0% by weight aqueous solution at 20 DEG C using a Brookfield RVT viscometer, Spindle No. 1, 10 r.p.m. The use of the specified weight ratio and CMC type permits significant increases in the solids content at which encapsulation can be carried out without increasing process viscosities to an unacceptable extent and/or giving rise to poor quality microcapsules. The process is particularly suitable for producing microcapsules for use in pressure-sensitive copying paper.

Title: Fast edit point and cue location
Inventor: GASKELL PHILIP STUART
IPC: G11B27/30
Filed: 1986-05-15
Granted: 1988-11-02
Abstract: To facilitate fast location of edit-points in a disc-based audio recording system, one or more editing tracks ("spooling" and/of "aux.data") are recorded in conjunction with the digital audio signal ("audio"). The spooling track is a reduced sample rate, reduced bandwidth version of the audio signal. This can be replayed at increased speed to simulate "spooling" on an analogue tape recorder, without exceeding the maximum data reading rate of the disc. The auxiliary data file ("aux data") includes edit markers indicating points in the audio signal. These points are selected by an operator during recording as potential edit points or cue locations. The edit markers can be displayed when the recording is replayed. Preferably a directory of edit markers is also generated, so that a particular edit point can be located quickly. <IMAGE>

Title: A beverage package and a method of forming such a package
Inventor: LYNCH FRANCIS JOSEPH
IPC: B65D85/73
Filed: 1992-11-10
Granted: 1996-05-29
Abstract: A beverage package and a method of forming such a package has a can (1) within a primary chamber (5) of which is located an insert (6) having a secondary chamber (10). The insert has a seating in the form of a bore (11) within which is received the lower end of a tube (15). The tube (15) is fitted to the insert whilst the latter is positioned in the can. When the can is charged with beverage such as beer (20) having gas in solution and sealed to form a headspace (21) containing gas at a pressure greater than atmospheric, beer from the chamber (20) may fill the tube (15). The secondary chamber (10) contains gas at a pressure greater than atmospheric and on opening the container the headspace (21) de-pressurises causing beverage and/or gas from the secondary chamber to be ejected through the tube (15) and such ejection causes froth to be developed in the headspace (21). The tube (15) isolates a major part of the beer in the container from having its gas liberated so that such gas can evolve gradually to provide sparkle in the beer when the latter is poured into a glass. The tube is preferably press fitted into the socket (11). In an alternative arrangement the tube may be received on a spigot extending from the insert (6). Preferably the seating (11) is co-axial with a cylindrical can (1) and the tube (15) is curved to locate its upper end adjacent to the side wall (3) of the can. <IMAGE>

Title: Improvements in and relating to shower control valve assemblies
Inventor: CLARE MANAMOHAN
IPC: F16K11/074
Filed: 1994-10-17
Granted: 1997-10-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a shower control valve assembly which includes a casing mountable in a wall with inlets for hot and cold water. A cartridge is insertable into the casing in one of two orientations so that the hot water inlet of the cartridge can be aligned with either one of the casing inlets, depending on which one is the hot water inlet. The casing has two outlets, one for the shower and the other for the tub. There is an integral bypass which takes water from the tub outlet to the shower outlet upon activation of a diverter valve. The cartridge is of the pressure and temperature balancing type, with water of the desired temperature flowing to the tub outlet and then to the tub or shower as desired. The cartridge uses a rotatable mixing valve disc having arcuate ports therethrough for hot and cold water, each port being alignable with a corresponding passage in the cartridge that communicates with an inlet chamber for water of the appropriate temperature. The thickness of the valve disc at each port diminishes from a maximum to a minimum and a cam surface is provided adjacent each port. Within each passage is an axially movable seat member that has an annular surface in constant contact with the cam surface and an opposite annular surface that is sealable against an O-ring held by a snap seal member to prevent water flow through the seat member and the mixing valve disc. The snap seal member allows water flow therepast and is biased towards the disc, but when the axially movable seat member is in sealing contact with the O-ring, no water can pass to or through the valve disc. With this configuration wear is minimized and it is not necessary to use toxic lubricants to maintain smooth action of the valve disc.
