Title: Whirlpool bathtub
Inventor: WACHSMUTH FRANK
IPC: A61H33/00
Filed: 1994-06-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a whirlpool bathtub with one or more intake devices for the intake, conveyance and feed of water out of or into the tub, in which the water can be taken in at one or more points on the tub via intake valves with intake apertures and supplied to the tub at several points via nozzles with outlet apertures and supplies to the tub at several points via nozzles with outlet apertures or via the intake valves with outlet apertures themselves. The likelihood of the device's sucking in a bather's hair is prevented in that, in the direction of flow of the water taken in there is, at a distance behind the intake valve(s) there is a protective filter with a plurality of apertures which are so small that hair cannot be sucked into the protective filter.

Abstract: A system for converting an image-enhanced digitized raster fingerprint image to vector lines in order to generate a unique identification value for the fingerprint. The raster image pixels are converted to vector lines along the fingerprint ridges and the vector lines are classified and converted according to type. The line types are then analyzed and a list of identification features corresponding to the vector line types is generated. The identification features between the vector line types are compared and the image is classified according to fingerprint class. A unique identification value is then generated by numerically encoding the classified identification features.

Abstract: The stepping motor (1) moves a pointer (3) over a dial (4). Two groups (12,13) of symbols (5,6) are arranged on the dial, which respectively lie on a circular line (10,11). Both groups of symbols act in conjunction with the position of the pointer (3) for reading the value of the variable. A difference of more than 360 deg. exists between the min. angle of rotation ( beta ) of the pointer for indicating the min. value and the max. angle of rotation ( gamma ) for indicating the max. value of the value to be indicated. The pointer maintains its direction of rotation with a rigorous steady increase from a min. value to the max. value. The 2 symbol groups can be selectively illuminated according to the angle ( alpha ), by backlighting or using and LCD dial face.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically allocating space within a data storage system for multiple data sets which may include units of data, databases, files or objects. Each data set preferably includes a group of associated preference/requirement parameters which are arranged in a hierarchical order and then compared to corresponding data storage system characteristics for available devices. The data set preference/requirement parameters may include performance, size, availability, location, portability, share status and other attributes which affect data storage system selection. Data storage systems may include solid-state memory, disk drives, tape drives, and other peripheral storage systems. Data storage system characteristics may thus represent available space, cache, performance, portability, volatility, location, cost, fragmentation, and other characteristics which address user needs. The data set preference/requirement parameter hierarchy is established for each data set, listing each parameter from a "most important" parameter to a "least important" parameter. Each attempted storage of a data set will result in an analysis of all available data storage systems and the creation of a linked chain of available data storage systems representing an ordered sequence of preferred data storage systems. Data storage system selection is then performed utilizing this preference chain, which includes all candidate storage systems.
