Title: Load interrupter switch
Inventor: HOGL VITUS
IPC: H01H33/66
Filed: 1997-08-25
Abstract: The invention concerns a load interrupter switch (1) for voltages in the kV range, with a vacuum interrupter chamber (2) which is surrounded in a gap-free manner by a sleeve (4) formed from elastomer material having high dielectric strength. The sleeve (4) is in turn clamped by the two halves (11 and 12) of the housing of the load interrupter switch (1). In this way, external flashover of the high voltage between the end plates (24 and 25) of the vacuum interrupter chamber (2) is effectively prevented during switching operations without the need for liquid or gaseous media. In this way, in contrast to conventional load interrupter switches, complicated monitoring is unnecessary and the load interrupter switch is not harmful to the environment.

Title: System comprising at least one encoder for coding a digital signal and at least one decoder for decoding a coded digital signal, and encoder and decoder for use in the system
Inventor: HEKSTRA ANDRIES PIETER
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1993-09-13
Abstract: Known systems based on layered video coding and video decoding code with inadequate efficiency because the new high-resolution picture is predicted by means of the switching means present in the system either on the basis of the preceding high-resolution picture or on the basis of the instantaneous low-resolution picture. According to the invention, designing the switching means for the adjustment of the ratio of the signal representing the preceding high-resolution picture and the signal representing the instantaneous low-resolution picture and for then adding both the adjusted signals achieves a gain of 3 dB in the prediction with the correct ratio, and this results in an improvement in the coding efficiency. <IMAGE>

Patent AU-5042493-A (AU)
Title: A beverage package
Inventor: FORAGE ALAN JAMES
IPC: B65D90/44
Filed: 1993-11-02
Abstract: A beverage package has a sealed can 1 having a chamber 5 containing beer 20 having gas in solution and forming a headspace 21 containing gas at pressure greater than atmospheric. A hollow insert 6 in the chamber 5 forms a secondary chamber 10 containing gas at pressure greater than atmospheric. The insert 6 is responsive to a pressure differential developed when the top 4 of the can 1 is opened to inject gas under pressure into the beer 20 through an aperture 11 at the top of an extension 9 of the insert. Said injection of gas liberates gas from solution in the beer 20 and the aperture 11 is located near to the surface of the beer 20 so that, preferably, less than 30% of the volume of the beer 20 is subjected to said gas liberation and adequate gas is maintained in solution in the beer 20 to provide "sparkle" from natural liberation of gas when the beer is poured into a drinking vessel. <IMAGE>

Title: A fool and a method for pressure shaping
Inventor: AAGAARD ERIK
IPC: B21D22/26
Filed: 2000-06-19
Abstract: The invention concerns a tool for regulating the surface pressure on a blank constituting a metal plate which forms the starting item for shaping a finished item in a press. The blank is placed between a draw ring (23) and a blank holder ring (24). Besides, the tool comprises a shimming plate (1, 5, 10) provided with chambers (2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14) which are delimited by the shimming plate itself and by a flexible membrane (27). The shimming plate is placed between a tool bottom part (17), alternatively a tool top part (16), and the blank holder ring, alternatively the draw ring. A pressure medium like hydraulic oil may be led to the chambers. Thereby it is possible locally and individually to increase the surface pressure on the blank depending on the number of chambers, the design of chambers and the location of the chambers in the shimming plate. Furthermore, it is possible to regulate the pressure during the shaping process itself.

Inventor: FAST JACOB
IPC: G09F1/10
Filed: 1990-03-22
Abstract: A stand-up label or sign holder for use in supermarkets or bakeries is made of plastic sheet material and has a base panel at one end, a label or sign holder panel at its opposite end and an elongate stem connecting the panels.

Title: Disk drive controller circuit and method for skipping defective and/or undesired sectors
Inventor: PINVIDIC DANIEL R
IPC: G11B20/18
Filed: 2000-06-01
Abstract: In a disk drive, a disk drive controller circuit and method keep track of defective and/or undesired sectors on a disk and skip such defective or undesired sectors during a read or write operation requested by a host system. A microprocessor is programmed to respond to a read or write command from the host system by converting a list of sectors to be skipped to an address and range format suitable for loading a set of registers within the controller circuit. The microprocessor loads the set of registers, and the controller circuit compares each sector identified by the read or write command with the contents of the set of registers. If a sector identified by the read or write command matches one of the sectors to be skipped, the controller circuit skips that sector during the read or write operation.

Abstract: Novel 1,2-dioxetanes with improved chemiluminescent properties, such as signal intensity, S/N ratio, T½, -etc. are provided by spiroadamantyl 1,2-dioxetanes, wherein the remaining carbon atom of the ring bears an alkoxy, aryloxy, or arylalkoxy substituent, and either a phenyl or naphthyl ring, this aromatic ring bearing, at the meta position on the phenyl group, or a nonconjugated position on the naphthyl ring, an OX moiety wherein X is an enzyme-cleavable group, which when removed from the dioxetane, leaves the oxyanion which decomposes with chemiluminescence, the aryl ring further bearing an electron-active substituent Z. The nature and placement of the Z substituent, at a position not adjacent the point of attachment to the dioxetane ring, strongly influences the properties of the dioxetane. Assays, as well as kits for the performance of those assays, include the dioxetane, an enzyme capable of cleaving the X group, and in certain cases, membranes and chemiluminescent enhancement agents.
