Title: Alarm condition detecting method and apparatus
Inventor: STANLEY LAWRENCE G
IPC: H04Q9/14
Filed: 1991-05-09
Granted: 1999-08-31
Abstract: Methods for detecting an alarm condition comprises repeatedly converting an ambient condition into voltage outputs in detector means, repeatedly converting the voltage outputs into a series of actual analog values, polling the series of actual analog values to determine an average analog value, repeatedly comparing the difference between the average analog value and the last actual analog value with a predetermined delta-threshold value and indicating an alarm condition when the difference between the average analog value and the last actual analog value exceeds the delta-threshold value. Methods far detecting an alarm condition further comprise repeatedly comparing the average analog value with a maintenance threshold value and indicating a maintenance signal when the average analog value exceeds the maintenance threshold value.

Title: Method and coupler for interfacing a portable data carrier with a host processor
Inventor: JOHNSON JERRY W
IPC: G06K17/00
Filed: 1991-07-03
Granted: 1996-06-25
Abstract: This invention relates to a coupler which allows a host processor such as, for example, a personal computer or point of sale device or the like to communicate with and control a portable data carrier and a method for interfacing the portable data carrier with the host processor. A portable data carrier is a portable device which contains integrated circuit(s). Examples of portable data carriers are Integrated Circuit Cards, data keys, super smart cards, and smart coins. The coupler is adapted to receive the card in a standard card receptacle or card reader to establish connection between the card and a connector in the coupler to which the necessary control signals are 1 applied. The presence of an integrated circuit card is detected in the coupler's card connector terminal which provides a card present signal CRD PRS to the host processor. The host, in turn, provides Clear-To-Send (CTS), Request-To-Send (RTS), Data-Set-Ready (DSR) and Data-Terminal-Ready (DTR) signals. The input/output data from the input/output line channel of the IC card is connected to the Transmit-Data (TX) and Receive-Data (RX) lines of the host processor without the necessity of retransmitting characters communicated between the portable IC and on data carrier and the host processor.

Abstract: THREADING THE WEB INTO A TWIN WIRE DRYER GROUP            ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           The dry end of a paper making machine includes a twin wire dryer group following a single wire dryer group.  The paper web is continuously guided by a support belt which moves alternately between dryer cylinders and intermediate deflecting rolls in the single wire dryer group.  In the twin wire dryer group, the web travels over open lengths between dryer cylinders in the two rows of the second group.  A rope guide threads the web into the twin wire dryer group.  The start of the rope guide, called the rope shears, is in the vicinity of the periphery of the last or next to last deflecting roll called the selected deflecting roll in the single wire dryer group.  Between the selected deflecting roll at the start of the rope shears and the preceding selected dryer cylinder, there is a relatively long straight path of travel for the support belt.  Parallel to that path, there is a scraper and a guide plate which deflects the edge strip of the web laterally into the rope shears which is laterally to the side of the web.  The rope guide then threads the web into the second dryer group.

Title: A method to determine the concentration of anticoagulants
Inventor: HEMKER HENDRIK COENRAAD
IPC: C12Q1/56
Filed: 1991-10-30
Granted: 1996-10-29
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to determine the concentration of anticoagulants as a function of the inhibition of thrombin formation in an assay mixture. The assay mixture is composed of two reagents and the diluted plasma sample. The diluted plasma sample containing an anticoagulatory substance is mixed with a clotting factor reagent, which is a combination of an excess amount of purified coagulation factors of the endogenous system, phospholipids and a weak thrombin inhibitor, which can be potentiated by an anticoagulatory substance. Then a coagulation cascade activator and calcium chloride, an activator rea-gent, is added to the mixture and formed thrombin is measured after a chosen incubation time. A proportionality between the in-hibition of the thrombin formation and the anticoagulatory active components allows for a determination of the concentration of anticoagulatory active components in the sample.

Title: Hinge fitting for motor vehicle seats
Inventor: ERNST HANS-HELLMUT
IPC: A47C1/025
Filed: 1992-08-31
Granted: 2002-02-05
Abstract: A hinge fitting for motor vehicle seats having an adjustable backrest comprises a fixed hinge member, which is associated with the seat, and a swivelling hinge member which is associated with the backrest. The two hinge members are connected via an eccentric so as to swivel, and both hinge members comprise sets of toothing which engage with each other and form part of a wobble mechanism. In this regard, the eccentric may be swivelled about a first swivelling axis in a first pivot bearing relative to one hinge member and about a second swivelling axis in a second pivot bearing relative to the other hinge member. Both pivot bearings are arranged eccentrically relative to each other.      The pivot bearings are formed by plain bearing bushes which are mounted in the hinge members. For the purpose of calibration by means of a calibrating mandrel, the plain bearing bushes are plastically compressible. The running surfaces of the plain bearing bushes observe the, in each case, smallest spacing from the associated axis of the hinge member which accommodates the respective plain bearing bush. The hinge fitting has an only small overall width and has a high internal stability, even against high forces such as may arise during accidents. In addition, the hinge fitting has extremely small bearing clearances which are obtained with simple manufacturing methods.

Patent CA-2109169-C (CA)
IPC: H04W28/04
Filed: 1993-10-25
Granted: 1999-03-09
Abstract: Within a cell of a TDMA mobile communication system, each mobile station transmits a control message on an up-link frame. On receiving it, the base station determines if the message quality is affected during transmission. A corruption status indication is stored into a position of a frame status memory corresponding to the up-link frame if the message quality is low. When the base station detects a frame identification contained in the received message, it erases the corruption status indication stored in a position identified by the detected frame identification, and transmits a control message on a down-link frame, containing the result of the quality determination. In response, the mobile station stores the identification of the frame of the message into a collision memory, and retransmits a copy of the up-link control message containing the frame identification.
