Patent EP-0022786-A4 (EP)
Title: A traffic measuring device based on state transitions.
Inventor: KRAUSHAAR JONATHAN MOSES
IPC: H04M3/36
Filed: 1980-04-22
Abstract: Traffic measurement device, particularly applicable to telecommunication networks. The device is of the digital type and relies on state transitions caused by the origination and termination of calls. This type of measurement is not vulnerable to inaccuracies of traditional measuring systems, particularly those using scanning methods. The device requires, theoretically, only three measuring leads (1.1, 1.2 and 1.3) common to all servers in the group under consideration, irrespective of the number of servers; one lead (1.1) transmits a pulse at the time of seizure of a server, the other (1.2) transmits a pulse at the time of release of a server, and the third (1.3) transmits a pulse when all servers are busy. The last pulse is used for system initialization and for measurement of congestion. The basic device integrates the server occupancy states overtime by adding the number of scored busy servers in each state a number of times proportional to the duration of the state. The device also facilitates measurement of the variance of the carried traffic or load, which is required together with the mean to describe the characteristics of the traffic distribution such as peakedness of smoothness. Finally, by measuring the duration of congestion and noncongestion periods the device calculates the overflow and offered traffic.

Title: Injection molded multi-layer circuit board and method of making same.
Inventor: IMPEY JOHN
IPC: H05K1/11
Filed: 1985-10-11
Abstract: A multi-layer circuit board comprised of two or more circuit board substrates (10, 12) shaped by injection molding with mating interconnecting pins (22) and holes (24) and banded together with an electrically insulated adhesive material (28). Circuit leads (14, 16, 18, 20) are provided on both sides of each substrate recessed into channels (85) formed in the surface of the substrate during the molding process. Electrical interconnection of the layers of circuitry occurs where the conductive materials of the circuit leads (14, 16) passes down through component lead holes (26) axially located in the interconnecting pins (22) and around the exterior of the interconnecting pins where contact is made with the conductive material coating on the interior of the interconnecting holes (24). A method of making the multi-layer board includes injection molding the substrates (10, 12) in a suitable shaped mold (74, 76) plating substantially all of the surface of the substrates with the conductive material (82) masking with a plating resist (84), plating again with conductive material (88), removing the plating resist and flash-etching to remove the conductive material (82) initially plated and masked by the plating resist (84) so as to define the circuit leads (14, 16, 18, 20). The preferred method uses a roller to apply the plating resist to some surfaces of the substrates.

Title: Apparatus for translating the eeg into music
IPC: A61B5/375
Filed: 1988-08-17
Abstract: A method and apparatus for applying a musical feedback signal to the human brain, or any other brain, to induce controllable psychological and physiological responses. A signal representing the ongoing electroencephalographic (EEG) signal of a brain preferably is obtained from the electrode (3) location on the scalp known as CZ or P3 in clinical notation. A signal processor (9) converts the ongoing EEG into electrical signals which are converted into music by synthesizers (10). The music is acoustically fed back to the brain after a time delay (7) calculated to shift the phase of the feedback in order to reinforce specific or desired ongoing EEG activity from the scalp position of interest. The music is comprised of at least one voice that follows the moment-by moment contour of the EEG in real time to reinforce the desired EEG activity. The music drives the brain into resonance with the music to provide a closed loop or physiological feedback effect.

Title: Method and apparatus for determining bone density
Inventor: DIMAROGONAS ANDREW D
IPC: A61B9/00
Filed: 1994-03-01
Abstract: The integrity (density) of discrete pieces of hard tissue (bones) in a patient may be determined by either one of two methods. In a first method, an impulse of energy is introduced into the hard tissue, such as by striking the patient's hard tissue, and the induced vibration is sensed and analyzed in order to compute the damping factor thereof, the damping factor being directly related to the density thereof. With this method, a transducer is coupled to the hard tissue and its output is amplified by an amplifier before input to a computer which determines the damping factor. In a second method, a continuous energy input is provided to the hard tissue, such as by utilizing a frequency generator coupled to a power amplifier whose output drives a transducer such as a speaker or the like for inducing a continuous vibration in the hard tissue. This continuous vibration is measured with a transducer, having amplified output, and a damping factor is calculated with a computer.

Title: System and method for integrating a business environment with a process control environment
Inventor: SANDOVAL GERALD A
IPC: G06Q10/06
Filed: 1994-09-27
Abstract: A system and method for integrating a business transaction processing system with a process control system provides a computer integrated manufacturing environment. The manufacturing execution system receives work orders from the business transaction processing system and obtains enrichment data to enhance the work order. The manufacturing execution system uses the enrichment data and rules contained in a plant model database to generate setpoints based on the received work orders. The setpoints include detailed information required by the process control system to manufacture the product specified by the work order. The setpoints are transmitted to the process control system for manufacture of the required materials. The manufacturing execution system collects the manufacturing data resulting from the execution in response to the work order by the process control system and processes this manufacturing data to provide summary information on manufacturing processes and to provide inventory information data. This data is then transmitted to the business transaction processing system so that business records may be maintained.

Title: Apparatus and method for picking and erecting carton blanks
Inventor: NILSSON JAN-OESTEN
IPC: B31B50/76
Filed: 1995-06-14
Abstract: An apparatus for erecting folded carton blanks has a picking assembly for grasping a carton blank from a magazine. The picking assembly is disposed for rotational movement from a first position proximate the magazine to a second position proximate an abutment that engages a corner of the carton blank. A gate disposed for rotational movement is driven in a timed relation with the picking assembly. As the picking assembly moves from its first to its second position, the gate applies a breaking pressure which facilitates air flow through the interior of the carton blank. At or immediately prior to the time that the corner of the carton blank engages the abutment, the gate applies an erecting force that facilitates opening the carton blank to its fully erected state.
