Title: Friction material testing apparatus
Inventor: COTTERILL RONALD IAN
IPC: G01N3/56
Filed: 1999-01-18
Abstract: Apparatus 10 (FIG. 1), for testing samples of friction material 31, 32 in rubbing contact with a surface 33 of a rubbing element 34, comprises a table 12 for supporting the rubbing element and a load cell 16 for sensing the load imposed by the frictionally coupled rotating samples from which the coefficient of friction can be determined. To make the tests repeatable rapidly and with identical starting conditions cooling means 40 is interposed between the rubbing element and table. Cooling means 40 comprises a fluid cooled heat exchanger 41, conveniently cooled by local main supply water supplied at its natural temperature, and thermoelectric cooling means 75. The thermoelectric cooling means consists of an array of planar peltier cooling elements which develops a temperature gradient there across which, with reference to the heat exchanger temperature, is able to cool and re-cool the rubbing element to temperatures as low as -25° C. within a matter of minutes. To ensure the friction material and rubbing element are not contaminated by water condensed from the atmosphere an enclosure 60 is formed around them and kept at positive pressure by dry, inert argon gas.

Title: Digital control circuit
IPC: H04M9/08
Filed: 1992-09-03
Abstract: A circuit arrangement for dynamic control of a speech communication terminal, comprising a compander function, is specified. Instead of analog circuits for dynamic expanders and compressors, use is made of a digital signal processor (DSP), which assigns on the basis of a pre-stored characteristic curve (KL) to the individual level mean values of the input signal gain factors, which are fed to the amplifier (VS) arranged in the transmitting branch of the terminal. The stored characteristic curve may be displaced in a manner dependent on a noise mean value or dependent on a reception mean value obtained from the sidetone signal, or be replaced by another characteristic line. In this case the effect of a change in gain in the transmitting branch on the sidetone signal entering via the receiving branch is compensated. In a further development, the circuits supplying the level mean values are also replaced by the digital signal processor, which uses subroutines to execute the functions assigned to these circuits. <IMAGE>

Title: Foam in bag packaging system
Inventor: SPERRY LAURENCE BURST
IPC: B65D81/32
Filed: 1997-04-01
Abstract: A foam-in-place packaging system is disclosed that comprises a bag foamed of two sheets of flexible plastic film material sealed on all four sides by respective edge seals. A plurality of frangible seals are between the two sheets and define three separate interior cells in the bag. The frangible seals extend between the edge seals or between an edge seal and another frangible seal to thereby define a single cell bag when the frangible seals are broken. The cells separately contain a first and second foam precursor composition, and the bag includes means for permitting gases to vent from the bag as the foam precursors form foam while preventing foam or foam precursors from escaping from the bag. As a result, when the frangible seals are entirely broken, the separate cells foam a single interior cell in which the first and second foam precursors can mix thoroughly and react entirely to eliminate precursor residue and permit the resulting foam to expand properly and flow freely within the resulting single interior cell of the bag.

This causes the linear laser beams to intersect each other at a scanning region. The size and configuration of the scanning region is based upon the configuration of the object surface and is substantially aligned with the column of detector elements in the line scan camera. The system also includes a second adjustment apparatus for adjusting a relative position of the object and the optical assemblies along the axis of the object to scan additional sections of the object. Preferably, the line scan camera is a CCD camera and the detector elements are CCD sensing elements. The controller determines the cross-section dimensions of the object at the desired section of the object,

Abstract: The invention concern the field of storage, transport, recovery and recycling of bottles or packs (2) made of plastic or other material. It provides the possibility of using the content of bottles or packs (2) at will, using the pouring spout (6) and the cap (3) mounted on the tops (1) which are screwed on, clipped on or fixed by other means, and on the standard seals (5) in any material, fixed on the top of bottles or packs before the tops or seals are definitively removed for stacking the bottles or packs (2). The inventive design aims at facilitating the stacking of bottles or packs to reduce storage space and for transport for refill in a reduced space, and, ultimately to facilitate collection for recycling or transformation into raw material. The inventive concept uses for transport supports (10) designed to receive the bases of the bottles or packs (2), the top of the stack receiving plates with the impression of the caps (3) to protect them during transportation of the filled bottles or packs (2). The inventive concept fulfils the need to use the product contained in bottles or packs (2) at the rate desired by the consumer, and at will, since he has the possibility of closing the container with the cap (3) without having to remove the seal (5) or the top (1), and without the product being too uncovered and therefore likely to spill.
