Title: Oxidative rainbow
Inventor: CHARLTON STEVEN C
IPC: C12Q1/54
Filed: 1988-08-24
Abstract: The invention involves the use of a multiple oxidative indicator system capable of generating different hues at different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide or at different concentrations of an analyte from which hydrogen peroxide is generated by means of the analyte specific oxidase. At least one component of the multiple oxidative indicator system changes from a particular hue to a different hue upon oxidation. A second indicator component is capable of being oxidized to a form having a hue which is visually distinct from the first indicator component in either of its forms. The test compositions of this invention are capable of generating visually distinct hues at different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and can be used to generate a "rainbow" in an oxidative system.

Title: Method and apparatus for propelling and retarding off-road haulers
Inventor: JOHNSTON RONALD ALLEN
IPC: B60L11/18
Filed: 1990-11-29
Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for powering and controlling the operation of large diesel-electric off-road haulers of the type in which hauler drive wheels are propelled and retarded by DC electric wheel motors powered from on-board generators, optionally supplemented by DC power, from external trolley lines. In the disclosed system, thyristor-type converters connected into the system AC power grid are used to receive supplemental external power from DC trolley lines and supply it into the AC power distribution grid in the propel mode. The use of such thyristor-type converters makes possible the use of supplemental trolley line power without provision of separate switching or control gear to operate the DC wheel motors when trolley line power is received. Thyristor-type converters also may be used to supply current generated by wheel motors in the retarding mode to retarding resistors, making possible the use of the initial electrical power generated by the wheel motors to replace load requirements of the diesel engine, resulting in substantial fuel savings.

Filed: 1991-07-31
Abstract: A chaise lounge recliner chair (300) which incorporates an intermediate leg support member (312) for providing support to the thighs and areas behind the knees of the legs of an occupant of the chair. The intermediate leg support member (312) is connected to a portion of the seat (306) of the recliner chair and a portion of the leg rest member (310) of the chair. When the leg rest member (310) is in an extended position the intermediate leg support member (312) provides a normal slightly convex support surface. As the seat back (302) of the chair is reclined, it causes the seat member (306) to be extended outwardly which causes the intermediate leg support member (312) to assume a pronounced convex surface. A plurality of elastic straps (324) are further included and disposed between the seat (306) and leg rest members (310) to prevent the intermediate leg rest member (312) from crowning downwardly relative to the chair frame when the leg rest member (310) is in it extended position. <IMAGE>

Patent GB-2344246-B (GB)
Title: Sensor apparatus
Inventor: BALLINGALL RONALD ALEXANDER
IPC: H04N5/374
Filed: 1998-09-18
Granted: 2001-12-05
Abstract: The invention provides a sensor system (800) for generating a sensor signal (Sout) corresponding to a filtered image of a scene. The system (800) incorporates a multielement array (526) and associated processing circuits for providing element signals in response to images projected onto it and a projecting lens assembly (502) for projecting images onto the array (526). The lens assembly (502) projects differently blurred images of the scene onto the array (526) for generating a measurement signal during a measurement phase and a local spatial average correction signal during a calibration phase. A light-diffusing shutter (522) is used for generating the differently blurred images. The system (800) substracts the measurement and correction signals of each element from one another to provide a difference signal and uses this signal to generate the sensor signal (Sout) during the measurement phase. The calibration phase is repeated on change of array temperature or incident radiation intensity, thereby reducing fixed pattern noise in the sensor signal (Sout) despite environmental change, and interrupting the measurement phase only infrequently.
