Abstract: DISPOSITIVO QUEIMADOR DE MONóXIDO DE CARBONO E RESìDUOS A presente patente de invenção refere-se a um sistema desenvolvido com o objetivo de reduzir o monóxido de carbono, elementos pesados e outros resíduos resultantes da combustão em veículos automotores e aplicações com motores de combustão interna em geral. As ineficiências de combustão e manutenção dos veículos resultam em poluentes e resíduos poluentes que são descarregados na atmosfera e provocam entupimento dos catalisadores. Constitui de um sistema instalado após o coletor de descarga (3) de motores a combustão interna composto por câmara de combustão (1) contendo o bico injetor de combustível (4) proveniente do reservatório (5) e dosado através da válvula (6); um sistema de insuflamento de ar comburente através de turbo-alimentador elétrico (8), e um sistema de ignição sendo o processo controlado pelo modulo microprocessado (14), sendo os sistemas elétricos e eletrónicos alimentados pela bateria (16). Em operação promove o aquecimento inicial da câmara de combustão e dutos de passagem operando a queima dos gases e resíduos que atravessam o dispositivo. O equipamento desenvolvido vem a suprir as deficiências atualmente apresentadas nos veículos, contribuindo para redução dos níveis de poluição atmosférica pela eliminação de elementos nocivos como o monóxido de carbono, a fumaça provocada pela presença indevida de óleo lubrificante que penetra na câmara de combustão ou escapamento e redução dos resíduos e carbonização dos elementos catalisadores e escapamentos.

Title: Generation of candidate motion vectors based on orientation and position of a camera or viewer
Inventor: FISHWICK STEPHEN
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2010-02-25
Abstract: A motion estimation process and apparatus involves determining one or more motion vectors representing movement of a camera or viewer position or direction between each pair of fields or frames in the sequence of images; this may be achieved by using depth information for pixels in the image sequence. A set of candidate motion vectors is then determined for deriving positions of objects in a field or frame frorn the positions of objects in a previous field or frame. This set of candidate motion vectors is adjusted using the motion vectors representing movement of camera or viewer position and thus a set of motion vectors is derived for a sequence of images using the adjusted set of candidate motion vectors. The adjustment may be achieved by offsetting the normal search range by an amount derived from the motion vector predicted by the change in camera position or direction.

Title: Spectrally selective solar panel
Inventor: PATE ANDREW CLIFFORD
IPC: F24J2/50
Filed: 2010-06-16
Abstract: A spectrally selective panel 7 comprises an essentially static permanent spectrally selective. liquid 1 which is mechanically bound to a solar transparent covering 2 in such a manner that the resulting structure does not significantly deflect, focus, scatter or absorb solar light. Preferably, the liquid is water, or a liquid containing hydrogen bonds, which absorbs heat radiation. The spectrally selective liquid may be bound to the covering by mixing it with a gelling agent or resin. Alternatively, the spectrally selective liquid (3, fig.4) may first be encapsulated within a sphere (4, fig.4) which is then bonded by resin or gel (5, fig.4) to the covering. Advantageously, the spectrally selective liquid may be quilted between two coverings (see figures 5 and 6). The spectrally selective panel may be combined with an absorber to form a solar collector, where the absorber preferably comprises an oil bed 9 flowing over a black surface 10 contained by a neoprene rubber membrane 11. Preferably, the spectrally selective panel is held in tension, or separated from other components of the solar collector, or otherwise made rigid, by the use of a pressurised gas, such that the solar collector may be inflated.

Filed: 2010-06-25
Abstract: A system having a bed which is adjustable and which supports a user in varying configurations. A motor 8 causes movement of head and foot sections 4,5 to incline them relative to the frame 3. The motor is activated by the bed user using a hand held controller producing wireless signals. An auxiliary controller, operated by a third party, may also act on the motor drive to change configuration, and which may be used to reduce the snoring of the bed-user. The auxiliary controller may also be in the form of a sensing pad (29, fig 1) which senses changes in the user's body position, and is positioned in a recess 30 in the mattress 1. The loading-change results in a delayed change of configuration from one pre-set configuration to another provided the changed loading persists and exceeds a pre-set threshold. The bed may also include a vibrator linked to an alarm to warn the user in the event of an alarm condition.

Title: Circular Ice Scraper
Inventor: SCOTT JOEL OLIVER NICHOLAS
IPC: A47L1/16
Filed: 2011-02-05
Abstract: A circular ice scrapper provides multi-directional scraping when in use, for example when scraping ice of cars or the like. The circular blade/cutting edge X is profiled so as to have inner and outer edges (fig 5) which are both set at an angle of 45 degrees, thus allowing the scraper to be used in any direction and maximising its scraping action. The intention is that the scraper can be used on a surface without having to be lifted there from. The diameter of the circular blade is chosen to provide a balance between the force to cut into the ice (a smaller diameter blade) and yet have a decent removal rate of the ice (a larger diameter blade). Handle Y, provided in a central position, maximises the force and directional control in whatever direction the user wishes to move. The handle also includes a hole to that a user can insert a finger when using the device (see fig 1).

Title: Method of adjusting surface topography
Inventor: HEYLEN PHILIP
IPC: B41F17/00
Filed: 2011-05-27
Abstract: Methods for adjusting the topography of a surface, such as for making a support surface substantially flat, e.g. for mitigating variations in a print gap, are described. The topography of the surface (512, Fig.5a) is first measured, and then a shim layer 524 is printed to approximate the topography to a reference topography, the thickness of the layer being calculated using the measurements. For example the print gap comprising the distance between the surface of a printer table (510, Fig.5a) and printing means, such as a printhead (518, Fig.5a). The print gap is first measured before at least one layer of ink is printed, using the printing means (518, Fig.5a), at a selected position based on the measured print gap. The thickness of the layer of ink is selected to mitigate the variations in the print gap. In some embodiments, a substrate support surface 522 may then be arranged over the printer table (510, Fig.5a), so that the printed layer is disposed between the printer table (510, Fig.5a) and the substrate support surface 522. The apparatus can compensate for variations in the print gap due to both irregularities in the printer table surface (510, Fig.5a) and misalignment in mounting of the printing means (518, Fig.5a).

Title: Exposure Control for an Imaging System
Inventor: YEO YUNN-EN
IPC: H04N5/235
Filed: 2012-04-05
Abstract: An image analysis device receives (202) a plurality of low dynamic range (LDR) images at a variety of exposures, creates a LDR image histogram (206) for the scene for a proposed exposure using the images, and analyzes the histogram (208) to determine whether the proposed exposure is acceptable (210). The proposed exposure lies between the maximum and minimum of the exposures used to capture the plurality of LDR images. The histogram may include plural bins versus a pixel population associated with each bin, the bins may be associated with light intensity. Images and histograms may used to generate the LDR histogram which include data defined by a low dynamic range and/or an extended dynamic range. If the proposed image exposure is unacceptable, the process is repeated until an acceptable image is obtained (212). A method is described of detecting image under-exposure comprising detecting in RGB colour space a summit located in a bin deemed to be too dark, the summit being tallest or rightmost among plural summits not corresponding to a sky and each coming from a different histogram among plural histograms associated with an image, or an equivalent step in a non-RGB colour space.
