Patent EP-0352879-A3 (EP)
Title: Curling iron
IPC: A45D1/02
Filed: 1989-04-11
Abstract: A curling iron (10) has an elongated heating tube (22) and 
a clamp (64) secured to an end of the tube which is attached 
to a handle (12). The heating tube has at least one generally 
flat surface (26) having a longitudinal depression (33) generally 
in the center of the surface. In one embodiment, the 
tube has relatively wide top and bottom surfaces (26, 28) which 
each have such a depression (33), and relatively narrow, 
sharply rounded side surfaces (30, 32). The clamp has a relatively 
short clamping surface which extends over a portion of 
the length of the heating tube. Hair strands which are 
wrapped around the tube are not curled over the flat 
surface or surfaces of the tube. The depressed portions 
of the heating tube do not contact the straight lengths 
of the hair directly, so that the straight lengths absorb 
less heat from the tube, and normal operating temperatures 
are more easily preserved in the heating tube.
Patent EP-0358348-A3 (EP)
Title: Aft spill ramjet
IPC: F02K7/10
Filed: 1989-08-15
Abstract: In an aerospace vehicle designed to operate in the high 
Mach number ranges, a variable geometry air intake ramp is 
used to control the mass flow of intake air to the vehicles 
powerplant or to close off the air intake duct when 
required. In the transonic flight mode a spillage of excess 
intake flow particularly occurring around the air intake lip 
can result in fore-spill drag. To alleviate this condition 
the present invention provides an arrangement whereby at 
least some of the spill flow is directed into an aft spill 
ramjet where it is progressively mixed with burning gases 
and discharged from the ramjet nozzle to give a 
supplementary effective thrust to the vehicle.
Patent EP-0360459-A3 (EP)
Title: Boundary-defined area clipping and extraneous edge deletion method
IPC: G06T15/30
Filed: 1989-09-06
Abstract: A method for clipping a line segment boundary-defined area against a 
limiting plane is disclosed for use in a computer graphics display 
system wherein graphics figures are represented by random sets of 
polylines definitive of line segment boundary-defined areas. Pursuant 
to the clipping method, once two intersection points are generated 
against one plane, the points are connected to form an edge of the new 
clipped boundary-defined area. The order of intersection point 
connection is irrelevant to the invention and the method can 
accommodate discontinuously presented data as readily as continuously 
presented data. Implementing the method essentially requires only one 
register to store the first intersection point and a flag register to 
indicate the status of the present clip point, i.e., whether the 
clipped point is the first or second of two points to be paired. In 
another aspect of the invention, an improved extraneous edge deletion 
method is provided capable of deleting extraneous lines formed as a 
result of a line segment boundary-defined area being clipped against a 
limiting plane. Pursuant to the method, clipped X-axis and Y-axis 
extraneous edges are eliminated during area fill processing in the 
graphics display system.
Patent EP-0360478-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04L12/22
Filed: 1989-09-12
Abstract: Apparatus for preventing the unauthorized detection of the start and end of packets being communicated within a packet switching system. The packet switching system comprises a plurality of packet switching networks that are interconnected by trunks. Each switching network has a number of trunk controllers with each terminating one of the trunks interconnecting that network to other networks. Each controller has an encrypting circuit for only encrypting the flag of each packet before the packet is transmitted on the connected trunk and a decrypting circuit for decrypting the flag of each packet received from the connected trunk. The decrypting circuit on the receiving side of a trunk recovers flag synchronization with the encrypting circuit on the transmitting side of the trunk by the exchange of special packets. Each flag comprises a plurality of bytes. The decrypting circuit can automatically adjust for a predefined number of errors in the flag bytes or a predefined number of flag bytes appearing in the data of a packet.

Patent EP-0426655-A3 (EP)
Title: Programmable logic device with configurable output enable means
IPC: H03K19/177
Filed: 1986-11-28
Abstract: A device having a number of general registers (28,48) each 
allocated an input/output port (12,14) and a number of internal "buried" 
state registers (76). A user-controlled signal (84) permits observation 
of the contents of the buried state registers (76) at an input/output 
port (14) although these registers are not allocated an input/output 
port. Each register is connected to a logic circuit internal to the 
device by a dedicated feedback path (42,64,80) sothat all registers can 
be used to specify states in a state machine sequencer. A fuse-programmable 
XOR gate (38,70) permits a user to control generation of 
signals at the ports by permitting enabling and disabling of an 
inverting output buffer (34,60). Asynchronous reset and synchronous 
preset of the registers is provided (29b;29c). In addition to the 
dedicated feedback paths (42) programmable feedback paths (64) are 
provided. An output inverter can selectably be enabled from internal 
signals or from an external pin. The input/output circuit can be 
deployed in banks, each bank selectably receiving the same or a 
different clock. The registers can be preloaded via an internally-generated 
signal or from the external pins. In an alternative 
embodiment, a programmable AND array and a pair of programmable OR 
arrays, each serving one of the banks, provides a flexible programmable 
logic array device with observable buried states.
