Title: Methods and apparatus relating to fluidised beds
Inventor: WANG HAIGANG
IPC: G01N27/22
Filed: 2008-08-22
Granted: 2014-03-20
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing particle density map images of fluidised particles by electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) in a fluidised bed apparatus allows for measuring online the liquid content of fluidised particles during the fluidisation process and for recalibration of the fluidised particle permittivity during fluidisation, allowing for online recalibration of an ECT system when the liquid content of particles changes, such as for fluidised bed drying or granulation processes. Recalibration measurements are made using reference electrodes positioned to measure the capacitance of the densely fluidised particles near the side walls of the fluidised bed. The electrodes of an ECT sensor array may be used to make the recalibration measurements which can be used to provide online liquid content measurement, such as moisture content, for the fluidised particles without stopping fluidisation. The liquid content information may be used for process control. The method may also be used to provide separate images for solids distribution and for total liquid distribution across a plane being imaged.

Title: Blow molded container and process for molding the same
Inventor: KUROSAWA TAKAO
IPC: B29C49/48
Filed: 2009-02-27
Granted: 2013-08-29
Abstract: Disclosed is a bottle-shaped synthetic resin article molded by direct blowing that inhibits the occurrences of dents on the bottom surface center caused by heat from the parison cut-off part, by radially arranging three or more cut-off lines residually formed on the bottom surface of the article. Also, in the case of a rectangular prism-shaped article, extreme thinning of the material is prevented by reducing the stretching amount in the legs. This is achieved by arranging four cut-off lines in a cross on the diagonals of the bottom surface, with one of the diagonal lines positioned on a parting line, and arranging the ends of each cut-off line so that they are in close proximity of the legs of the bottom part, which are formed by partial stretch molding. Furthermore, each edge line of the body is formed into the same spiral pattern, and, among the four edge lines, a parting line is arranged on top of two of the edge lines. The parting line thus enables the exterior appearance of the body to be maintained.

Title: Search index format optimizations
Inventor: KOKHAN ARTSIOM IVANOVICH
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2009-05-13
Granted: 2014-07-03
Abstract: A search index structure which extends a typical composite index by incorporating an index which is optimized for fast retrieval from storage and which eliminates data which is specific to phrase searching. Other data is represented in a manner which allows it to be calculated rather than stored. Associating variable length entries with logical categories allows their length to be inferred from the category rather than stored. Using delta values between document IDs rather than the ID itself generates a compact, dense symbol set which is efficiently compressed by Huffman encoding or a similar compression method. Using an upper threshold to remove large, and thus rare, delta values from the symbol set prior to encoding further improves the encoding performance.
