Title: Statistical multiplexer for a multichannel image compression system
Inventor: PAIK WOO H
IPC: H04N21/434
Filed: 1992-12-07
Granted: 1994-06-09
Abstract: A multichannel image compression system uses a plurality of encoders (10, 12 ... 14) to compress image data. A coding level command is provided to each of the encoders to specify a level of quality to be provided by each encoder. Encoded image data, provided by the encoders in response to the coding level command, is multiplexed (26) into a combined signal for transmission. The coding level command is adjusted in response to an accumulated amount of data from the combined signal, to maintain the accumulated data within a throughput capability of a communication channel (48). Although the coding level command may specify a global coding level that is the same for all of the encoders, the encoders can derive local coding levels from the global coding level to provide different encoding qualities. Decoder apparatus (30-46) is provided to recover an image from the compressed image data. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1989-04-07
Granted: 1991-01-03
Abstract: A multilayer structure comprising (C) a substrate layer, (A) a surface layer of a thermoplastic resin, and (B) an intermediate layer of a thermoplastic resin sandwiched between the (C) substrate layer and the (A) surface layer, wherein the (B) intermediate layer contains 0 to 70 % by weight of a flake inorganic filler, the peeling strength between the (A) surface layer and the (B) intermediate layer is from 0.3 to 2.0 kg/15mm, and the peeling strength between the (B) intermediate layer and the (C) substrate layer is at least 1.2 times as large as the peeling strength between the (A) surface layer and the (B) intermediate layer. When a packaging container is produced by forming the multilayer structure into a container body and sealing the container body with a lid, easy openability and high sealing property will be ensured because the opening of the packaging container is not operated by using the delamination between the sealed portion but by using the easy delamination between the surface layer (A) and the intermediate layer (B). The use of the multilayer structure for production of packages is economically advantageous because the recovered scrap can be reused as the material for the substrate layer (C) without affecting the peelability of the surface layer (A).

Title: Disposable probe cover assembly for medical thermometer
IPC: G01J5/10
Filed: 1989-10-31
Granted: 1993-07-01
Abstract: A probe cover assembly for use in covering and protecting the elongated probe of a medical thermometer. The assembly has three laminated layers, including a flat base layer with an aperture sized to slide over the probe, an intermediate stretchable film, and a protective paper layer having radially-aligned perforations aligned with the base layer aperture. In use, the probe cover assembly is placed on the probe by inserting the probe through the base layer aperture, from the assembly's paper layer side, to stretch the plastic film over the probe, with the perforated paper functioning initially to separate the probe from the film and thereby prevent the film from initially sticking to the probe and stretching unevenly. The probe cover assembly is removed from the probe and discarded by sliding the apertured base layer along the probe, with the perforated paper functioning to scrape the stretched film from the probe. The probe cover assembly is extremely compact and convenient to use, yet highly effective in reliably covering the probe and facilitating an accurate, repeatable measurement of a patient's temperature.
