Patent EP-0127465-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01L5/00
Filed: 1984-05-25
Abstract: A device (10) for sensing the amount of force applied to 
the teeth during brushing is disclosed. The device includes a 
toothbrush holder (100) pivotally supported inside a sleeve 
(200). O-rings (120, 122) mounted on the holder act both as 
fulcrum for the holder and as resistance members to resist the 
pivoting of the holder inside the sleeve. An adjustment cap 
(220) is threadedly mounted on the sleeve and can adjustably 
compress the O-rings to provide variable resistance to the 
pivoting of the holder. An electrical circuit comprised of fixed 
and floating contacts detects the holder pivotal movement 
and lights up a bulb (216) to indicate that the holder is pivot­
ing. A battery (206) is carried in the sleeve to power the circuit.
Patent EP-0132397-A3 (EP)
IPC: A01B3/36
Filed: 1984-07-20
Abstract: A soil working implement is of the kind having a support 
frame 13 on which at least one soil working tool 10 is mounted, 
the tool being preferably of the kind having a tool portion 34 
passing edgewise through the ground at an angle to the verti­
cal.  
     The tool portion 34 has a soil-engaging surface 51 which 
is inclined at an acute angle to the direction of travel A so that, 
with the tool 10 offset to one side of the line of action X of the 
frame, forces tending to generate a turning moment in the hori­
zontal plane are counteracted by engagement of the soil by the 
inclined soil-engaging surface 51.  
     Additionally or alternatively the support frame 13 may be 
adjusted to angle the tool 10 relative to the direction of travel.

Patent EP-0156117-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06T17/20
Filed: 1985-01-29
Abstract: A method of, and apparatus for, altering the configuration 
of an art form based on defining a portion of the border of the 
art form. The definition of the portion is used to call an 
appropriate routine for permitting operator alteration of the 
portion. The portion is defined both geometrically and by 
makeup. Consider a square. If part of the definition includes 
one side, and another part of the definition is that the side is a 
solid line, urging the side away from the center of the square 
will create a rectangle. If part of the definition includes a 
broken line rather than a solid line, urging the line away from 
the center will result in a peaked side with the square becom­
ing a polygon. Next consider a circle. If the border portion 
defined is a solid line semicircle, urging the semicircle away 
from the center of the circle will result in a shape similar to that 
of a silhouette of cylinder having domed ends. If the semicir­
cle were defined as a broken line and urged away from the 
center, the defined semicircle would be changed to an eliptical 
form.

A process for the production of an offset-printing plate, using the aforesaid gumming solution in the burning-in of the plate, is also disclosed. With application of this gumming solution, washing of the printing plate prior to printing is rendered unnecessary, since the printing plate runs clean very rapidly during the printing process.

Filed: 1987-10-07
Abstract: Liquid chromatograph apparatus comprises a plurality of 
solvent sources (104,105) feeding a pump (102)  via  a 
proportioning valve arrangement (100). The proportioning valve 
arrangement (100) has a plurality of inlets (108,109) and a 
single outlet (110) which is coupled to the inlet coupling (112) 
of the pump (102). The inlet coupling (112) is mounted directly 
on the pump head (103) and incorporates a filter (118, Figure

chromatographic separating column.  
     The solvent sources (104,105) are coupled to the 
proportioning valve inlets (108,109)  via  tubes (106,107) without 
the provision of separate filters. This gives more equal average 
flow rates and enables more accurate proportioning of the solvent 
mixture to be obtained.
