Abstract: A folding multipurpose tool (30) including adjustable locking pliers
with an over-center locking mechanism to retain the jaws in a gripping
condition. The jaws (36,38) of the locking pliers can be folded into the handles
(32,34) of the tool to produce a compact folded configuration. A latch
mechanism (46) in the tool handle (34) retains a selected one of several folding
tool bits or blades (176,194,196,198,200) in an extended position for use and
includes an abutment arrangement (202,204) to prevent such a selected tool bit
from being extended too far. A spring (178) associated with a tool bit driving
socket (182) retains separate tool bits and resists inadvertent removal of an
adjustment screw element (148) of the locking pliers. Upon removal of the
adjustment screw element (148), special bits, such as a corkscrew, can be
screwed into the tool bit driving socket (182).

IPC: H03F3/45
Filed: 2000-06-29
Abstract: A digital differential receiver IC that rejects the intersymbol
interference (ISI) that is imposed upon differential
digital signals when long runs of a digital state (0 or 1) are
transmitted over long cables. The ISI-rejecting differential
receiver IC is implemented in either bipolar technology ( n-p-n 
or  p-n-p ) or in insulated gate FET technology ( p -channel or  n -channel).
The primary differential pair of transistors is
connected to a weaker secondary differential pair of transistors
through a filter network so that a high pass "shelf" filter
transfer function exists between the differential input signals
and the output signals. This transfer function mitigates ISI by
reducing the gain for long runs of a digital state (low
frequencies) and enhancing the gain for the state transition
edges (high frequencies).

Abstract: By using monitoring data, feedback data, and pooling
of failure data from a plurality of electronic devices,
real-time failure prediction and diagnoses of electronic
systems operating in a network environment can be achieved.
First, the diagnostic system requests (S110,S120) data on
the state of a machine and/or its components and
collections thereof as part of the machine's normal
operation. Secondly, real-time processing (S160) of the
data either at the machine site or elsewhere in the
distributed network allows for predicting or diagnosing
system failures. Having determined and/or predicted a
system failure, a communication to one or more remote
observers in the network allows the remote observers to
view the diagnostic information and/or required action to
repair the failure. Furthermore, interrogation of either
the particular electronic system, or a database containing
data on similar electronic systems by the diagnostic server
allows the diagnostic server to refine original diagnoses
based on this population data to achieve a comprehensive
failure predication/diagnosing system.

Abstract: The method consists in forming a tubular item on a circular machine by
means of the needles (5,25) of the needle cylinder (2,3), starting from the
opposite axial end of the item (30) with respect to the axial end to be closed
and retaining on the needles (5,25) of the needle cylinder (2,3) the last
formed row of knitting. The loops (30a,30b) of the last row of knitting are
then transferred individually to an auxiliary element provided with
supporting elements for individually supporting the loops, and the
supporting elements of at least one first half-row of the last row are suitable
to receive two loops and to pass one of the two loops in the other loop. The
item (30) is furthermore reversed before and after the transfer. In a
subsequent step, the loops of the second half-row are transferred from the
corresponding supporting elements to the supporting elements engaged with
the loops of the first half-row, and the loops of the second half-row are
knitted in with the loops of the first half-row by passing the loops of the
second half-row through the loops of the first half-row, thus closing the
axial end of the item (30). Finally, an additional operation is performed in
order to stabilize the closure of the item (30).

Abstract: In an access network (100) having a maximum line capacity of
connectable subscriber calls prescribed, an alternate
controller (15) sets up e.g. an empty active line or standby line
as an alternate line when a congestion detector (19) detects that
a maximum number of subscriber calls which a subscriber
concentrator can receive is exceeded and thereby causing congestion, and
an alternate line concentrator (33) concentrates the alternate lines
in a central terminal (30). Also, the alternate controller selects
a subscriber call to be connected to the alternate line based
on a subscriber priority order management table. Furthermore,
when a congestion state occurs in at least one of the remote terminals (10_1,10_2),
all of the remote terminals make the lines predetermined as the
empty lines alternate lines.

Abstract: The present invention aims at providing a visual
display which is useful in roughly understanding the state of
groupings and changes, by comparing expression data of genes
from two experiments based on expression data of one sample
common to both experiments. 
     In order to compare data of expression levels obtained
from different experiments each using two types of samples,
three types of expression levels are displayed in three-dimension
as mediated by the data of the common sample used
in both experiments. Specifically, expression level data for
Samples A and B and expression level data for Samples A and C
are combined and converted into single three-dimensional data
and displayed as points inside a sphere. A
clustering analysis is performed based on the distributed
points inside or on the sphere.

elongate deformable member is thereby forced progressively through said
deforming arrangement (34) as the distance between said first part and said second

deformation, whereby energy is absorbed, and wherein said deforming
arrangement is such as to effect such plastic deformation substantially without

Abstract: To form the printing matter and images on a printing surface, the printing surface is of a hydrophilic material or it has a hydrophilic coating. At the preparation stage, the text and images are formed on the printing surface by a jet printer, which uses a hydrophobic material. An adhesive is applied to the hydrophilic surface directly before the jet printing with a hydrophobic material. To prepare a printing plate, the adhesive on the hydrophilic surface can be applied by the jet printer, at a time gap before it prints with the hydrophobic material. The adhesive contains a cross linking agent, and has a fine pore structure so that the surface of the adhesive has open pores. A foaming agent can be mixed into the adhesive.

receiver branches, impedance conversions provided in the transmission
lines then directing a signal in a desired direction. The implementation of
the invention is preferably integrated in the front end of the
communication device, a multilayer ceramic module being used in the

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an improved method for producing color
watermarks in digitally reproducible color documents. The color watermarks are
generated by producing a halftone pattern, which appears as stochastically distributed
dots, in at least one or more color separations of the color document. A second
halftone pattern, which also appears as stochastically distributed dots and is spatially
displaced from the first halftone pattern, is generated in at least one or more different
color separations. Portions of the first and second halftone patterns are auto-correlated
or conjugally correlated, therefore, when the two halftone patterns are laid
over each other, watermark patterns of highly contrasting colors become markedly
visible.
