Title: Apparatus for measuring the draw resistance of a rod of tobacco fibres
Inventor: ULRICH JORN
IPC: A24C5/34
Filed: 1988-03-21
Granted: 1993-10-12
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE            An apparatus for the continuous measurement of the draw resistance of acigarette, comprising transducer which detects the pressure drop of a gas stream with constant volume, said gas stream being introduced at a format finger of a rod-producing machine into a rod of tobacco fibres. The measured value depending on the flow resistance of said rod is continuously determined and correlates very well with the usual static measurement of the draw resistance of cigarettes, i.e. of the tobacco rod of a cigarette, so that this continuous draw resistance measurement during the cigarette production replaces not only the conventional random check but can also be used for controlling the production operation.

Abstract: ABSTRACT (ref: figure 1) CONTROL OF OPTICAL SYSTEMS           A method and a control system for controlling a signal from each outstation in a multiple access passive optical network (1) including a central node (2) and a plurality of outstations (5) involve monitoring, at the exchange, the value of a parameter of the signal from each outstation.  The value of the parameter is monitored relative to a predetermined discrimination value to detect the signal, and relative to predetermined first and second reference values defining a range of acceptable values for the parameter.   If the value of the parameter for a detected signal falls outside the range, a control signal is transmitted from the node to instruct the relevant outstation to alter the value of the parameter as required to bring the value into the acceptable range for subsequent signals originating from that outstation.  The method and system are particularly adapted for controlling the temporal position and the amplitude of outstation signals in a TDM passive optical network.  A transceiver for use with such a system is also disclosed.

Abstract: Abstract In many business applications, data about a client is created and entered on an agent's data terminal during a teleconference with the client. Often, it is necessary to transfer the client to a specialist during the course of the conversation. This invention describes a method of transferring the call and the data terminal information associated with the call to any available phone extension with an associated data terminal.  A Computerized Branch Exchange (CBX) is used to transfer the call and pass a host program the phone source extension and the destination extension for the transfer.  The host program looks up the source and destination extensions in a phone to terminal file and determines the network address of the data terminals involved and transfers the appropriate host application terminal display to invoke a transfer of display information.  The host application sends the data terminal information to the destination data terminal display in conjunction with the transferred phone call.

Title: Electromagnetic clutch
Inventor: UEHARA FUMIAKI
IPC: F16D27/112
Filed: 1989-07-11
Granted: 1993-07-06
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An electromagnetic clutch is disclosed which includes a rotor having a friction surface and an armature plate having a friction surface. Both friction surfaces face each other. An annular friction member of non-magnetic material is fixedly disposed on the friction surface of the armature plate. The thickness of the annular friction member is gradually decreased from its radially-outer edge to its radially innermost edge, thereby preventing the restriction of the number of magnetic lines of flux which radially penetrate through the armature plate. The decreasing thickness increases the magnetic attraction between the armature plate and the rotor without increasing the weight of the electromagnetic clutch.

Abstract: Synthetic    superconductors      adapted      for superconduction at temperatures substantially above those temperatures   near   absolute   zero   where   conventional superconduction  has  been  observed.   The superconductors comprise  alternating  and  spaced  conducting  and  lesser conducting   strata   in  a   relationship  which   induces superconductivity as a result of the interplay between the conducting and lesser conducting strata.  The type, nature and  dielectric  spacing  of  the  conducting  and  lesser conducting  strata  produce  charge  carrier  pairing  or grouping in the lesser conducting strata by electrostatic forces.    The   grouped   charge   carriers   provide   the superconducting  characteristic  to  the  superconductors. The  strata  may  be produced  by  layered  deposition  or plating.

Abstract: HIGH PRESSURE, FAST RESPONSE, PRESSURE BALANCED, SOLENOID CONTROL VALVE           ABSTRACT     A high pressure,  fast response,  pressure balanced reversible flow, solenoid control valve for use in such automotive applications as electronic valve timing for internal combustion engines and adaptive braking systems. A  pressure  balanced  bearing  (44)  is  connected  to  a moveable valve member  (28)  forming a valve cavity  (62) therebetween which is at a first pressure.  The moveable valve member is also connected to an armature means (50) on the other side of the pressure balanced bearing in an armature cavity (60).  The pressure on the opposite side of the valve member and in the armature cavity is at a second  pressure.   Thus,  the  moveable  valve member  is maintained  in  a pressure  balanced  condition  and  the solenoid then operates against any spring forces, inertia and the viscous effects of the fluid and not the pressure of the fluid.   As the solenoid  (58)  is energized,  the armature moves the pressure balance bearing and the valve member to open the valve allowing fluid to flow from a valve inlet to the valve outlet.  The control valve may be used  in control  systems where the  fluid  flow can  be reversible.

The second catalyst component of the new catalyst compositions is an organometal compound of the formula: M3R4e-fXf wherein M3 is aluminum, magnesium, zinc or mixtures thereof; R4 is a saturated hydrocarbyl radical; X is hydrogen, halogen or an alkoxy. In a preferred aspect of the invention, the solution made by combining the magnesium dihydrocarbyloxide, dissolved in an inert solvent, with the transition metal hydrocarbyloxide, is reacted with a carboxylic acid derivative, of the formula R5COZ, wherein R5 is a hydrocarbyl radical and Z is a halogen atom or an alkoxy radical. An important characteristic of this invention is that the new catalyst compositions give significantly higher hydrogen and comonomer responses and greater productivity with larger average particle size and higher bulk density than with at least certain state of the art catalysts.
