Inventor: NAKATSU KENNETH TSUTOMU
IPC: H04M15/08
Filed: 1996-10-02
Abstract: The invention manifests a voice messaging service embodied by the combination of an intelligent payphone and a voice messaging system (VMS) coupled to a public switched telephone network (PSTN).  The intelligent payphone has local processing capabilities whereby functionality relating to the messaging service is implemented.  This functionality includes intercepting direct dialed telephone calls, namely local and 1+ toll type calls, which are eligible for the VMS service and initiating the capture process of voice messaging service.  Thereafter, the intelligent payphone requests a connection via the PSTN to the VMS and communicates thereto, through an in-band dual tone multi-frequency signaling protocol, call context information necessary for the VMS to continue with the capture of the voice message.  The VMS is, of course, responsible for completing the capture of the voice message and subsequent delivery of the captured message.  Also, it relies on the payphone to collect and retain appropriate funds prescribed for utilization of the VMS service.

Title: Effect coating material and effect coating system, especially for vehicule bodies, using liquid-crystalline interference pigments
Inventor: GAILBERGER MICHAEL
IPC: C09D133/14
Filed: 1995-05-18
Abstract: The invention relates to painted commodity articles, especially vehicle bodies, and to coating materials for painting such components. In order to make it possible to achieve new. previously unknown colour effects with the coating material, in accordance with the invention there have been incorporated by mixing, into the coating material, interference pigments of which at least some, preferably all, are plateletlike, which automatically align themselves approximately parallel to the surface of the article in the course of application of the coating material, and which are composed of liquid-Crystalline side-chain polymers (LCPs) consisting of a nematic component and a chiral component, in which the side-group mesogens are least approximately in nematic and/or smectic and/or cholesteric order. By this means it is possible to produce, on the article painted therewith, an alternation of colour which is dependent on the direction of incidence of light and on the direction of viewing, or particularly intense shades of previously unknown brightness.

Title: Battery recycling process, in particular for dry batteries
Inventor: HANULIK JOSEF
IPC: H01M10/54
Filed: 1995-06-16
Abstract: A considerably simplified process is disclosed for reducing equipment costs for carrying out a recycling process of non-sorted batteries. The non-sorted batteries, just as they are collected, are directly supplied from a feeding hopper (1) to a rotary furnace (3) through a shredder (2). The shredded batteries are oxidatively burnt at a temperature from 400 ~C to 900 ~C during preferably 45 to 90 minutes. The combustion gasses produced flow through a gas scrubbing plant (7) that consists of known elements: dust filter (4), wet scrubbing filter (5) and active coal filter (6). The oxidised combustion product (P) is recycled by a metal recycling process (8). The combustion product (P) may be burned once again in an additional or subsequent step in the rotary furnace (3) with admixture of a reducing agent, coal. The thus obtained reduced combustion product may in turn be recycled by a metal recycling process (8).

Title: Method and mill for crushing rubble
Inventor: TOSCHI ANGELO
IPC: B02C13/286
Filed: 1995-08-31
Abstract: A method and a mill (1) or crushing station (A) for crushing rubble, wherein the crushed material fills the mill discharging hopper (9) for a height (H1) which is higher than the height (H) of a hopper discharging opening (11) so that a continuous material plug (6) is formed which closes said discharging opening (11). The discharging means (2; 17) can be either integrated into the mill discharging hopper (9) or form a separated discharging device (2) which is associated to the mill (1). In operation the plug (6) is continuously removed from the plug bottom and fed to the plug top so that said continuous plug prevents the formation and exhausting of dust. The known dust separation chambers are thus superfluous.

Title: Multi-neckdown fiber optic coupler
Inventor: WEIDMAN DAVID LEE
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 1996-09-12
Abstract: A unitary fiber optic coupling device (10) in which N fibers (16) (N3) extend in a parallel array having two coupling regions (11, 12) of reduced crosssectional area. At least one of the fibers (16) is formed of two sections that are situated end-to-end, an active core-containing fiber (47) section that is situated in the first coupling region and a dummy fiber section (52) that is situated in the second coupling region. The coupler also contains at least second and third fibers that are active core-containing fibers (47) throughout their lengths. The second and third fibers couple to one another in the first coupling region but remain uncoupled to one another in the second coupling region. Two fibers that couple in the first coupling region do not couple in the second coupling region, thus avoiding resonance effects.

Title: Butt joint hanger for drywall construction
Inventor: TROUT DARRICK S
IPC: E04B2/74
Filed: 1997-07-14
Abstract: A butt joint hanger (30) is disclosed having a central elongated rail (32) and two support elongated rails (34, 36) positioned on either side of the central rail (32).  One or more U-channels (38) interconnect the three rails (32, 34, 36) at pivoting attachment points (40).  The butt joint hanger (30) is inserted between two construction beams (94, 96) and the butt ends (108, 114) of two sheets of wallboard (104, 112) are attached to the central rail (32) by means of drywall screws (110).  The two support rails (34, 36) abut against the surfaces of the wallboard flush with the nailing surfaces (98, 100) of the construction beams (94, 96) and the drywall screws (110) force the butt ends (108, 114) of the wallboard out of the plane (102) of the wallboard and into engagement with the central rail (32).  This results in a depression area (116) adjacent both butt ends (108, 114) which can be easily filled with plaster (122) to produce a flat smooth butt joint (126).

Abstract: A metal powder having a vitreous thin layer on at least a part of the surface thereof wherein the amount of the vitreous thin layer is preferably 0.01 to 50% by weight based on the metal powder without the vitreous thin layer. The metal powder is prepared by a process comprising the steps of: bringing a solution comprising a heat-decomposable metal compound to fine droplets; and heating the droplets to a temperature above the decomposition temperature of the metal compound, wherein a precursor of an oxide, heat-decomposable to produce a vitreous material which, together with the metal, does not form a solid solution, is added to the solution and the vitreous material is deposited, upon the heating, in the vicinity of the surface of the metal powder. The powder is useful for the preparation of a thick film paste used in a multilayer ceramic electronic component or substrate, since it has an excellent oxidation resistance during storage, in a conductor paste, and during firing of the paste.
