Title: Releasable capillary coupling element for fluid carrying capillary tubes for laboratory use, has spillage preventing, liquid and air sealing, porous terminations
Inventor: ROSCHER DIETRICH
IPC: F16L15/08
Filed: 1999-10-14
Abstract: The element has spigot (8) and socket (14) components in which are fastened porous ceramic filter plates (6, 9), arranged transverse to flow channel through coupling. Spigot and socket components have corresponding screw threaded portions (13) for securing the components together. When the coupling is made, outer faces of filter plates are prevented from touching by an O-ring (10). A pair of capillaries may be joined by providing each with opposing half couplings, or alternatively a pair of sockets may be surface mounted on a plate (1,2) and connected by fluid channels (3,11). This allows two spigot terminations to be joined by insertion into each of the two sockets. The filter plates may be made of sintered glass and adhesively attached to the half couplings; bayonet coupling , etc. may be used to join the halves. The required porosity of the filter plates is dependent on the surface tension of the fluid handled as the wetted filter surface effects the sealing when the joint is uncoupled.

Abstract: The present invention provides a one-way clutch having rollers (4)
individually disposed in wedge-shaped spaces formed at some positions on
a circumference between two inner (1) and outer (2) annular bodies
disposed concentrically with each other, in which a wedge angle
(α) of each the wedge-shaped space is fixed at of 4° to 8°. As
a result, an engagement position of the roller becomes relatively
shallow when the roller (4) is positioned on a narrower side of the
wedge-shaped space and gaps between the roller and the two inner (1) and
outer (2) annular bodies become relatively small when the roller (4) is
positioned on a wider side of the wedge-shaped space. Therefore, the
rollers move smoothly in switching between the lock state and the
free state.

Inventor: AHMED WALID
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2000-10-16
Abstract: In an ad-hoc mobile network, a geometry-based routing algorithm (GRA) is used
to route traffic from a source node to a destination node. In the GRA, a source node
maintains location information and routing information for all nodes in a local area and
approximate location information for at least some nodes outside the local area. If the
source node has to send a packet to a destination node outside their local area, then the
source node uses the approximate location information of the destination node to identify
which node in its local area is closer to the destination node than the source node. The
source node then sends the packet to the identified local node for further routing.

Inventor: NGUYEN MINHSON DUC
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2000-11-20
Abstract: The present invention provides a time-efficient real-time correlator for use in a receiver
of a wireless CDMA communications system. The correlator correlates a signal received by the
receiver with a pseudo-random number (PN) code and produces correlation results. The
correlation results are utilized by other logic in the receiver to determine the time delay of the
received signal, which is then utilized to decode the received signal. The correlator requires no
memory for storing samples of the received signal because only the current sample of the
received signal is correlated with the PN code sequences. Using a time delay element such as a
RAM shift register or dual-port RAM to act as a delay buffer, the PN sequence is temporal
shifted (delayed) with respect to the received data by an interval of time that is related to the
number of correlators in the system multiplied by the processing power of each of the correlators.
With this invention, the cell site coverage area of a CDMA system is substantially increased with
minimal or no additional cost in hardware.

Abstract: A reference table has columns associated with data attributes and rows
containing related words assigned to those attributes in a collection of data,
those words coming from different data tables having independent numbers of
records. The stored data include word thesauruses associated with the
attributes, and reference table row identifier lists respectively associated with
thesaurus entries. Each word thesaurus associated with an attribute has a
respective entry for each word assigned to this data attribute in the collection of
data. The reference table, which may be a virtual table, defines a unified
algebraic framework for the entries of all the thesauruses. Query criteria can be
examined with reference to the relevant thesauruses to obtain a row-ID list or
bitmap vector which represents all the reference table rows matching the query
criteria, if any. The results can then be delivered through the original data
tables or, preferably, by means of the thesauruses.

Abstract: In a radio telecommunications network, such as the Global System for Mobile Communications, and the like, traffic and radio network events are more effectively associated with any one or more corresponding mobile identities. This may be achieved by forwarding a complete mobile identity relationship to the corresponding network manager, which, in turn, uses the mobile identity relationship to update a mobile identity relationship database. Then, whenever the network manager receives a traffic, radio or other type of network event report, along with a single mobile identity, the network manager can effectively relate any or all reported events with any corresponding mobile identity by correlating the single mobile identity with the mobile identity relationship information stored in the mobile identity relationship database.

Title: Device for producing short pulses by passive mode lock
Inventor: GLAS PETER
IPC: G02F1/35
Filed: 2000-03-24
Abstract: Conventional devices for producing very short laser pulses in which an optical medium as the laser source is arranged between two reflectors are provided with a reflector that is provided with semiconductor layers that absorb the incident laser beam depending on the intensity thereof. The aim of the invention is to provide such a device that is easy to produce and does not require a complicated adjustment. To this end, the optical non-linear reflector (2) consists of a refraction-controlled semiconductor layer (7) that has an intensity-depending refractive index and a highly refractive layer (8). A diaphragm (4) and a lens system that consists of at least two lenses (5, 6) is arranged in the beam path between the laser source (3) and the non-linear reflector (2). The distance (a) between the lens (6) and the refraction-controlled layer (7) of the non-linear refractor (2) is adjusted in such a manner that the resulting diameter (12) of the intensity distribution is larger for small intensities than the diameter of the diaphragm (4). The inventive device is easy to produce, can be integrated and easily adapted to different lasers. The inventive device can be used to compensate refractive effects since the refractive index increments for the refraction-controlled semiconductor layer (7) and the optical media (3, 5, 6) have opposite algebraic signs.
