Title: Apparatus for redirecting radiation
IPC: G02B27/28
Filed: 2002-05-17
Abstract: An apparatus for redirecting radiation including a polarization dependent reflector and an optical component able to transform the polarisation of radiation as it passes through the component. Radiation having a first polarisation component impinging upon the reflector from a source is reflected towards a scene area. Radiation not having this polarisation component passes through the reflector. The radiation having the first polarisation is then transmitted towards a scene via the optical component. As the radiation passes via the optical component, reflects back from the scene and passes again via the optical component, the polarisation is changed to state where it can now pass through the polarisation dependent reflector. The apparatus allows a scene to be illuminated as if the illuminator were positioned at the viewpoint of an imaging system, and so aids uniform illumination of the scene. The apparatus is particularly suited to mm-wave systems, wherein the reflector may comprise a parallel wire grid polarizer, and the optical component may comprise a quarter-wave plate.

Title: Liquid metering device
IPC: G01F/
Filed: 1986-02-04
Abstract: A liquid metering unit comprising a conduit of flexible material depending between first and second rotatable rollers, each having first and second curved surfaces and first and second flat portions. The rollers are driven in opposite directions so that their first curved surfaces impinge upon the conduit, constricting it and causing it to move upwards along its longitudinal axis such that any liquid contained therein is expelled from its lower end. Continued rotation of the rollers presents the second flat portions to the conduit, which is released and drops back to its original position. The conduit is recharged with liquid from a reservoir connected to its upper end by means of a vacuum source selectively connectable to its lower end.

Title: Cleaning and other vehicles
IPC: E01H1/00
Filed: 1990-06-08
Abstract: A self-propelled driver-operated cleaning vehicle has a hydrostatic transmission providing two speed ranges, a low speed range for cleaning operations and a higher speed for transit. In the cleaning speed range, the hydrostatic transmission provides both speed control and normal braking. An additional braking system is provided for emergency use. This braking system serves as the normal braking system during transit speed operations. The change-over from cleaning speed to transit speed operation is effected automatically on driver demand, and vice versa, by changes in hydraulic pump and motor displacement, effected on-the- go. The switch between braking modes is effected likewise automatically. Rear wheel steering is also provided which varies with vehicle speed and likewise is automatically reduced to zero, on-the-go, when the vehicle changes to transit speed mode. <IMAGE>

Title: Process and apparatus for biological treatment of effluent
IPC: C02F1/32
Filed: 1991-04-23
Abstract: Effluent to be treated is introduced into the top of a first bioreactor (10) through an inlet pipe (16) and, after passing through second and third bioreactors (11 and 12), passes through a settling device (17), the treated effluent then flowing over a depth control weir (18) into an outlet pipe (19). The three bioreactors (10, 11 and 12) and the settling device (17) are housed in a tank having three sets of vertically-staggered transverse partitions (21, 22, 23) and a transverse settling tank partition (24). Each set of staggered partitions (21, 22 and 23) are arranged so that the bioreactors are interconnected in series, the effluent preferably being constrained to pass downwardly through each matrix (13, 14, 15) in turn against an upward discharge of very fine air bubbles from aeration panels (28) which extend under substantially the whole of each matrix. Aerobic bacteria feeds on nutrients in the effluent and grows on the roughened walls of the cross-flow matrix and the air bubbles promote sloughing of the bacteria. The apparatus therefore comprises three or more separate total mixed bioreactors working in sequence, each serving to reduce the biological oxygen demand of all the effluent whereby the biological oxygen demand is progressively reduced.

Abstract: A changeover switch for a tap changer comprises a pair of load switches VBA/VBB. A diverter switch GTOA/GTOB allows load to be diverted along a second path when its associated main switch is opened or closed. An auxiliary circuit has an auxiliary switch GTOC and a varistor VR connected in parallel across the secondary of a transformer T. When the auxiliary switch is opened the varistor impedance is reflected onto the primary of the transformer which causes the current in the main switch to divert through the diverter switch so that the main switch can be opened or closed with substantially no load on it. <IMAGE>

Title: Adaptive audio systems and sound reproduction systems
IPC: H04S7/00
Filed: 1993-07-05
Abstract: An algorithm is described for sparsely updating the filter coefficients of an adaptive filter of an adaptive audio system to facilitate a high sampling rate without excessive processing capacity. Computer simulations are used to illustrate the potential for using an inverse filter matrix to manipulate the position of stereophonic images. The possibilities suggested could be used in conjunction with existing stereophonic recordings in order to improve stereophonic imaging in situations where the relative locations of loudspeakers and listener are constrained to be non-ideal. In one arrangement, real sound sources (S1, S2) provide to the listener the impression that the sources are at more widely-spaced positions (V1, V2). In another arrangement, employing four sound sources (S1, S2, S3, S4) the impression is created at two listener locations (M1, M2; M3, M4) that the sound is coming from a pair of sound sources positioned symmetrically of those listener locations. <IMAGE>

Title: Remote terminal emulator
IPC: G06F11/34
Filed: 1996-07-05
Abstract: A remote terminal emulator (RTE) is provided in which substantially all of the time elapsing during an emulated use of a computer system under test is categorized and reported. The time required by the computer system under test to respond to command signals transmitted by the RTE is recorded as a receive time and is measured from completion of the transmission of the command signals to recognition of a pattern specified by the RTE as signifying completion of the response by the computer system under test. As a result the receive time recorded reflects the time required by the computer system under test to (a) process and carry out the command transmitted by the RTE and (b) transmit response data back to the RTE. The RTE accurately measures and reports the measured user think time to provide important information regard the authenticity of the emulated use, when compared to actual user think times measured during actual use of the computer system under test by actual users, and the relative importance of the processing capacity of the computer system under test. The time during which the RTE processes information, causing emulation of use of the computer system under test to be suspended, is accurately measured as application processing time and is reported to the user of the RTE. Substantially all of the time elapsing during the emulated use of the computer system under test is reported to the user of the RTE to provide the user of the RTE more complete and revealing information regarding the performance of the computer system under test.

Title: Valve actuator
IPC: F16K31/04
Filed: 1999-08-25
Abstract: A valve actuator (1) is provided which comprises an actuator stem (4) extending from a housing (2) which contains a sleeve (17). The actuator stem (4) is driven so as to cause the sleeve to compress a stack of springs (22) within the housing until bolts (25) engage the sleeve, locking the springs in a compressed state. At the same time an armature (28) on the actuator stem is attracted to an electromagnet (29) within the housing. The actuator stem can then be driven to open or close a valve in a controlled manner without first compressing or releasing the springs. In an emergency, the electromagnet is switched off, releasing the armature thus unlocking the stack of springs. The released springs push the piston which partially retracts the actuator stem into the housing causing the valve to be closed.
