Title: Washable diaper with liquid impervious channel
Inventor: BANGA PRAKASH K
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1995-01-17
Abstract: A washable diaper or incontinence garment is provided having a waterproof interior channel for effectively retaining waste fluids and solids and allowing effective absorption of the waste material in a removable absorbent insert positioned in the channel.  In accordance with the invention, the waterproof channel comprises a bottom panel or layer and a pair of longitudinal side walls extending generally upwardly from opposite edges of the bottom panel.  The longitudinal side walls extend along the length of the diaper between the front and rear ends.  The side walls are spaced-apart to define an opening therebetween for exposing a substantial portion of the surface area of the insert in the channel.  This channel design allows easy insertion and removal of the absorbent insert and enables substantial and effective exposure of the pad to the user.  In addition, the generally upstanding side wall configuration effectively forms a well for the secure retention of waste in the channel even when the wearer is lying down.  The side walls are hemmed along their upper edges with rubber strips under tension.

Title: Computer graphics texture paging system with fragmentary mip map selection
Inventor: FITZGERALD RAYMOND L
IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 1995-03-17
Abstract: Dynamic computer graphics images are enhanced by mapping two-dimensional texture onto objects with texture definition appropriate to the range from an eye point to the object.  With varying definition texture map levels stored, each carrying different texture resolutions (degrees of definition) select sets of levels are paged for mapping operations based on the range to an object.  In an operation with two select sets, one set (the top) includes the five least detailed or least defined levels while the other set, the whole, constitutes all levels.  The choice between the two select sets for texture mapping an object is determined based on the range, and a specific ratio of pixel view frustum values provides an effective test criteria.

Title: Punch Unit
Inventor: SCHNEIDER ALBRECHT
IPC: B26F1/14
Filed: 1995-07-26
Abstract: The punch unit is comprised of a punch driver connected with a punch and has a base at its back end.  Securing members keep the punch and the punch driver free of relative rotation during the stroke of the punch.  A pre-loaded compression spring can be compressed between the base and a guide bushing receiving the punch, so that it cannot be rotated during the stroke of the punch,  but  is  axially displaceable.   To  make possible  an adjustment of the total length of the punch in arbitrarily small steps, without weakening the connection between the punch and the punch driver, it is provided that the back end of the pressure spring is supported on a spring seat at the rear end of a sliding bushing which is maintained in the guide bushing fixed against relative rotation, but is axially displaceable, and that at least the rear part of the punch driver is connected indirectly or directly with the punch via an adjustment screw thread and is in engagement with the sliding bushing in a manner secure against relative rotation by means of releasable securing members.

Title: A system for ultra-trace level analysis of water and a trapping medium therefor
Inventor: MEHKERI K ANWER
IPC: B01J20/28
Filed: 1994-04-08
Abstract: A system is provided for ultra-analysis of water for trace impurities. An effective trapping media (4) having internal surfaces which bear active hydroxyl groups thereon functions by binding gels that carry ultratrace analytes and contaminants on their surfaces. An X-ray source (28) may be located adjacent to the trapping medium (4) in situ. The X-rays (29) penetrate the media (4) and are reflected back into a combined emitter/receiver (30) which detects the fluorescence generated in the media (4) by the X-rays (29). The receiver (30) provides an output (31), optionally at a remote location (32) via a communication link (33), which provides data on the identity and quantity of analyses, typically heavy metals, present in the trapping media (4). By including in the transmitted data sent to the receiver (30) the output of the water meter (21, 21A) the display at the output (31) can be formatted in terms of the concentration of the measured analyzes within the sampled water stream (1).

Patent CA-2164681-A1 (CA)
Title: Perspective correction of texture in graphics by adaptive approximation
Inventor: DONOVAN WALTER E
IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 1995-12-07
Abstract: The present invention provides a computer graphics system with a texel value generator capably of generating texel values using a minimal amount of computationally intensive divisions while maintaining a selectable texel accuracy criteria along a scan line. This is accomplished by adaptively selecting divisional points which delineate the scan line segments along each scan line such that the divisional points are as widely spaced as possible without exceeding the selected texel accuracy criteria. Having selected the texel accuracy criteria, such as a texel error bound optimally spaced, divisional points along the scan lines are selected as a function of the selected accuracy criteria. In general, since texture gradients are not evenly distributed over the surface of a given object and texture variations are present between different objects of the image, it is advantageous to adaptively select division points one at a time, skipping as many pixels in between divisional points as the local texture gradient will allow. Accurate texel values are computed at these divisional points and also at the end points of the scan line. Approximate texel values arc then computed for the pixels located between adjacent pair of divisional points along the scan line using a suitable scheme such as linear interpolation.

Title: Tool Actuator with Adjustable Attachment Mount
Inventor: WEYER DEAN R
IPC: E02F3/38
Filed: 1995-12-13
Abstract: A fluid-powered, laterally tiltable tool actuator. A tool has a pair of clevises, and an actuator has a generally cylindrical body with an output shaft rotatably disposed therein with an axis in general parallel alignment with a forward rotation plane through which the tool is rotatable on a backhoe arm by the operation of a rotation link. A bracket is attached to the body and has a pair of clevises for pivotal attachment to the vehicle arm and rotation link. The output shaft has a pair of shaft attachment members at each end for attaching the shaft to the corresponding toolclevises. The first pair of shaft attachment members is rigidly fixed to the shaft and attached to a first tool clevis. The second pair of shaft attachment members is pivotally attached to the shaft and pivots in a plane generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The pivoting attachment members can be adjustably positioned to accommodate various distances which separate the first and second tool clevises of different tools to allow the pivoting attachment members to be readily attached to a second tool clevis. A linear-to-rotary transmission device disposed within the body produces rotational movement of the shaft relative to the body to produce lateral tilting of the tool in a lateral plane generally transverse to the forward rotational plane.
