Patent NO-159345-C (NO)
Inventor: SCHOTTEN THEODOR
IPC: A61H1/02
Filed: 1982-06-14
Abstract: In an apparatus for passive leg-exercises comprising a pedal bearing which is supported by a floor stand and a pedal crank with pedals driven by a driving motor, the invention provides that above the floor stand, which forms a lower apparatus section, there is an independent upper section which carries handle bars. This upper section is connected with the floor stand by a tube of flat cross sectional configuration and is inclined from the vehicle in the direction towards the user. The knees of the user are maintained relatively apart by smooth walls of the upper section. The user can operate the apparatus from a wheelchair so that it is possible to treat particularly patients suffering from illnesses such as multiple sclerosis or paralysis. The pedals are suspended and therefore allow, even where full control function is lost in the patient's feet, an optimal anatomically correct position at all times while the crank is turning.

Patent CA-2010846-C (CA)
Title: Automated order and payment system
Inventor: GOROG JONATHAN M
IPC: G06Q10/08
Filed: 1990-02-23
Granted: 1995-10-31
Abstract: An automated order and payment system for use by consumers to rapidly order products and services from any location at which the consumer is present at the time of ordering.  The system receives information about the products/services to be ordered by means of signals generated by scanning identification codes imprinted in advertising media or displayed to a consumer on a television screen.  A special version of the invention is modified to accept voice command via a voice recognition means for those physically handicapped persons unable to perform manual data entry tasks.  The consumer uses an optical scanning means embodied in a Order Computer Terminal to scan the identification code associated with a company and identification codes associated with the products/services desired.  This product and company information is stored in the Order Computer Terminal along with credit information retrieved from a plurality of storage means used on credit cards and subsequently transmitted when desired by the consumer to a Central Computer System.  The Central Computer System simultaneously receives information from multiple order computer terminals and verifies that the products or services from the desired company are in fact available.  The Central Computer System also verifies the credit worthiness of the consumer by searching for such information from credit data bases.  When the Central Computer System determines that the desired products/services are available and that the consumer is credit worthy, an order verification signal is sent to the individual consumer's order computer terminal whereupon the consumer verifies that he/she wishes to order the products/services communicated to the central computer system.          Once the consumer verifies the order, the automated order and payment system places the order for the products/services desired and provides the appropriate credit reference to the supplier of the product/service.  The automated order and payment system capabilities are more fully set forth herein.

Patent CA-2025133-C (CA)
Title: Felt turning roll
Inventor: BROWN DALE A
IPC: D21F1/40
Filed: 1990-09-12
Granted: 1993-12-14
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    A felt turning roll for use in the dryer section of a papermaking machine has a stationary shaft extending outwardly from at least one end of a perforated roll shell.          The stationary shaft extends inwardly from the end of the roll for only a short distance which is substantially less than half the length of the face width of the roll.  The stationary shaft is bored to permit a source of sub-atmospheric air pressure to be applied to its exterior portion.  The inner portion of the shaft has a valve, a seal near its inner end between it and the roll shell, and openings to permit the exposure of sub-atmospheric air pressure within the roll shell on either side of the seal.          The use of short stationary shafts eliminates the center shaft which otherwise would extend for the length of the roll.  The roll therefore has a higher first natural frequency, and the use of the seal between the bored shaft and the interior wall of the roll shell permits the roll to apply a strong vacuum pressure beneath an annular area of the roll face near at least one end of the roll to facilitate threading of the papermaking machine during the start-up procedure.

Title: Ciphertext to plaintext communications system and method
Inventor: TAYLOR STEVEN C
IPC: H04L9/18
Filed: 1990-11-02
Granted: 1995-07-04
Abstract: A ciphertext to plaintext communications system including a communications channel, a generator, a data device, an encryptor, a black to red communicator (BRC) device, a decryptor, and a comparator.   The generator generates a first data-bit sequence which has a predetermined bit pattern.   The encryptor encrypts the first data-bit sequence as an encrypted-bit sequence.          The encrypted-bit sequence is transmitted over the communications channel and received by the BRC device.          The data device generates the second data-bit sequence, which may include data from diagnostic equipment or any other source of information originating in the channel carrying the encrypted-bit sequence.   The BRC device modifies the encrypted-bit sequence using the second data-bit sequence.  The decryptor decrypts the modified-encrypted-bit sequence as a third data-bit sequence.          The third data-bit sequence is compared with the predetermined bit pattern with the comparator, which thereby generates the second data-bit sequence.

Title: Pull-out lavatory
Inventor: MARTY GARRY R
IPC: E03C1/04
Filed: 1992-01-03
Granted: 1999-08-24
Abstract: A pull-out lavatory is disclosed wherein a spout may be removed from a sink top to direct a stream of water to a desired location. The spout is mounted laterally offset from a lateral center of the sink top, and is firmly seated in the sink top when mounted. The spout is guided out of its seat on the sink top by rotating the spout which is moved vertically upwardly out of its mount. An arrangement prevents the spout from being rotated away from the center of the sink, since that may result in the stream of water being directed outwardly of the sink. In a further aspect of the present invention, the spout includes upper and under cover members which are snapped together and which include mating rib and notch structure to add to the stability of the spout. Also, the fluid connections within the spout housing include mounting structure that ensure they are properly aligned relative to the spout housing. The overall combination results in a pull-out lavatory that may be quickly assembled and properly aligned. Further, the inventive pull-out lavatory ensures that the spout is not inadvertently rotated in a direction such that a stream of water is directed outwardly of the sink.

Abstract: Optical communications system for the subscriber area with optical amplifiers.  The system according to the in-vention is used to distribute information signals, particularly telephone  signals, from a center to a large number of subscribers and to make possible a bidirectional transmission of telephone and data signals between the center and the subscribers.          According to the invention, the network used for this purpose is a multistar fiber-optic network in which fiber-optic amplifiers (10, 11) are present between successive branch points.  The information signals to be distributed are transmitted via the fiber-optic network with a first wavelength (.lambda.1) to the sub-scribers, and the subscriber-specific information signals to be transmitted from the center (1) to the subscribers (Ti) are converted by frequency modulation to a different frequency band (FB2) than the distribution signals (by frequency modulation) and transmitted to the subscribers at the same wavelengths as the distribution signals, and the subscriber-specific signals to be transmitted from the subscribers (Ti) to the center (1) are converted by frequency modulation to another frequency band (FB3) and are transmitted optically to the center with a second wavelength (.lambda.2).  This optical signal is amplified at suitable points (A) and several alternative embodiments for this amplifi-cation are indicated.

Abstract: Afin de pouvoir utiliser des plaques de polycarbonate (12) en tant qu'élément structurel (c.-à-d. soumis à des contraintes) dans un ensemble comprenant des éléments de polycarbonate (12) et métallique (10) comme, par exemple, dans un conteneur pour frêt aérien monocoque dans lequel le polycarbonate en plaques (12) est utilisé comme "peau" de la structure, on utilise un ensemble de fixation de manière à obtenir une jointure rigide, soumise à des contraintes, sans induire des degrés élevés de contraintes localisées, provoquant des fêlures, sur la plaque de polycarbonate (12). L'ensemble de fixation (14) comporte une zone considérable de chevauchement entre les éléments de polycarbonate (12) et métallique (10) et une bande de fixation (14) qui recouvre pratiquement la zone de fixation. Des rivets ou des chevilles (16) sont insérés dans des trous surdimensionnés percés dans le métal (10), le polycarbonate (12) et l'ensemble bande de fixation (14), puis soumis à un effet de torsion. Les forces de compression ainsi exercées créent la jointure rigide (même dans un environnement ou ladite jointure est soumise à un cycle de température de U180 °F de telle sorte que les différents coefficients d'expansion thermique pour le polycarbonate par rapport au métal deviennent significatifs), mais elles sont réparties sur une zone suffisamment grande de manière à éviter des degrés de contrainte élevés et localisés qui provoqueraient la fêlure du polycarbonate.
