Abstract: The invention relates to a method for applying capsules (1) to a plastic container (54) which is aseptically filled with a liquid and which is weld-sealed with a membrane (80). The capsule (1) to be applied, which preferably is constituted of two aluminum foils (2, 6) having a collar (58), is placed on the membrane (80) with a planar surface thereof and the collar is mechanically bent so that it is reliably secured to the container neck (50). The cap (100) is then pressed onto it so that the collar (58) is retained between the container neck (50) and the cap (100) in a form-and in a force-locking connection. The method according to the invention avoids the risk of the capsule being destroyed, which can happen during welding, and the risk of soiling, which can happen during gluing.

Inventor: HOROWITZ MARK A
IPC: G06F13/40
Filed: 2000-10-16
Abstract: Bus communications are optimized by adjusting signal characteristics in accordance with one or more topography dependent parameters. In a bus transmitter a transmit signal characteristic is adjusted in accordance with a topography dependent parameter. A port in the bus transmitter receives the topograpy dependent parameter for later use by the parameter adjustment circuitry. The parameter adjustment circuitry adjusts a parameter control signal in accordance with the topography dependent parameter, which is coupled to the out-put driver. Prior to driving an output signal onto a bus, the output driver adjusts the transmit signal characteristics in accordance with the parameter control signal. In a bus receiver, a receive signal characteristic is also adjusted in accordance with a topography dependent parameter. A port associated with the bus receiver receives the topography dependent parameter and stores it in a register. Parameter adjustment circuitry adjusts a control signal in accordance with the stored topography dependent parameter. An input buffer receives an input signal from a bus coupling the receiver to a transmitter of the input signal. The input buffer generates a first signal from the input signal by adjusting a parameter of the input signal in accordance with the control signal.
