Abstract: An energy absorbing roadside crash barrier (10) includes a scissors linkage (12) having first and second ends. The scissors linkage (12) is movable between an extended position and a collapsed position. A mounting element is coupled to the first end of the scissors linkage (12) to mount the scissors linkage (12) to a roadside obstacle. Deformable energy absorbing elements (40) are mounted to the scissors linkage (12) and positioned such that movement of the scissors linkage (12) from the extended to the collapsed positions deforms the energy absorbing elements (40), and the energy absorbing elements (40) thereby progressively resist collapse of the scissors linkage (12). A tension member (30) is secured to the scissors linkage (12) to apply a restraining force to hold the scissors linkage (12) in the extended position, until forces tending to collapse the linkage (12) exceed a pre-set range of values. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A beverage package has a sealed container (1) containing beer (11) having gas in solution and forming a headspace (16) containing gas at pressure greater than atmospheric. A hollow insert (7) is located in the container and is responsive to a pressure differential developed on opening the top (5) of the container to inject beer and/or gas therefrom with the beer (11) to liberate gas (17) from solution and form froth in the headspace (16).   A baffle plate (12) on the insert (7) restrains the liberation of gas (17) to a minor proportion of the volume of beer (11) so that when the beer is poured into a glass, gas can evolve naturally from the beer to produce "sparkle". As an alternative to the beer and/or gas injection bubble initiation, gas from solution in the minor proportion of the volume of beer may be liberated by contact of that beer with a bubble initiating material. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for the contineous dimensional scanning and gaging of the entire profiles of internal or external screwthreads, O-ringgrooves or similar grooves in wholes or on shafts. The invention also concerns the implementation of a comprehensive correction-method with the aim to compensate for the systematic errors of the combination of probe and said scanning and gaging apparatus and to relate the coördinatesystems of different scans to each other by scanning a certified mastergauge. This makes it possible to relate several profilescans to one coördinatesystem and than calculating all geometric screwparameters: effective diameter, outside diameter, core diameter, flange- and topangles, pitch, profile accuracy, taper, stand-off, etc. This said correction-method is also to apply for known scanningsystems. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a system for enforcing the validity of circulating pointers, one or more target pointers are generated and compared to circulating pointers. If a pointer does not circulate through the system within a prespecified time, then a pointer has been lost and an error is reported. If a circulating pointer matches a target pointer, it is suppressed by being removed from the set of circulating pointers. Another timer is then set to determine whether further circulating pointers match a target pointer. If so, then multiple pointers to the same location are present and all duplicate pointers are suppressed. After expiration of the second time, the target pointers are added to the set of circulation pointers. This process repeats with new target pointers, so that the validity of the set of the set of circulating pointers is verified. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An imaging device comprises a semiconductor substrate including an array of pixel cells. Each pixel cell comprising an individually addressable pixel circuit for accumulating charge resulting from radiation incident on a pixel detector. The pixel circuit and the pixel detector can either be implemented on a single substrate, or on two substrates bonded together. The charge storage device can be a transistor, for example one of a pair of FET transistors connected as a cascade amplification stage. An imaging plane can be made up of one imaging device or a plurality of imaging devices tiled to form a mosaic. The imaging devices may be configured as a slot for certain applications, the slit or slot being scanned over the imaging plane. Control electronics can include addressing logic for addressing individual pixel circuits for reading accumulated charge from the pixel circuits. Imaging optimization can be achieved by determining maximum and minimum charge values for pixels for display, assigning extreme grey scale or color values to the maximum and minimum charge values and allocating grey scale or color values to an individual pixel according to a sliding scale between the extreme values. Scattered radiation can be detected and discarded by comparing the detected pixel value to a threshold value related to a minimum detected charge value expected for directly incident radiation and discarding detected pixel values less than said threshold value.

Abstract: An integrated processor is provided that includes a CPU core coupled to a variety of on-chip peripheral devices such as a DMA controller, an interrupt controller, and a timer. The integrated processor further includes a power management message unit coupled to the DMA controller, interrupt controller, and timer for monitoring the internal interrupt and bus request signals of the integrated processor. The power management message unit may also monitor other selected activities of the integrated processor depending upon the system requirements. Based on the detected activities, if any, the power management message unit encodes a message on a power management message bus to thereby provide information regarding the internal events of the integrated processor to an outside power management unit. The power management message bus is channeled from the integrated processor at a set of package pins that are isolated from the standard external peripheral bus of the integrated processor. By providing encoded information regarding the internal events of the integrated processor, monitoring of such events by an external power management unit is possible while the number of external pins on the integrated processor are minimized. <IMAGE>
