Patent EP-0078833-A4 (EP)
Title: Bin for storing and discharging free flowing granular material.
Inventor: BONERB TIMOTHY CHARLES
IPC: B65D88/62
Filed: 1982-04-22
Abstract: A flat-bottomed bin (10) for the bulk storage and discharge of flowable granular materials. Because all of the material in such a bin cannot be discharged by gravity alone, a flexible, dual-wall, cup-shaped bag (12) is supported from and within a bin wall. The cup shaped bag rests on the flat bottom (24) of the bin and contains the granular material to be discharged. The granular material is discharged through a discharge opening (22) of the bag by operation of gravity until the remaining granular material reaches its angle of repose. Then the bin is further emptied by gravity due to inflating the bag to expand its inner wall (14) inwardly. The bag may have either a central discharge opening or a side discharge opening.

Title: Improved backplane power connection system.
Inventor: HOLBERT KENNETH WAYNE
IPC: H05K1/02
Filed: 1983-01-12
Abstract: A backplane power distribution system for making connections to the power planes of a computer system and having the capability of handling very high levels of current. This is achieved with a stepped backplane construction (17b-e). For example, in a multiple layer system having, in order, a first conductive layer (10a), a first dielectric layer (12a, 12b), a second conductive layer (10b), a second dielectric layer (12bc), and so on, each successive conductive and dielectric layers extend transversely beyond the preceding layers to present a substantial exposed area on all but the first conductive layer (17b-e). Typically, rectangular metal bus bars (not shown) are bolted to the backplane using plated through holes (20b-e) to make contact with the exposed areas (17b-e). Holes through the layers are provided and prepared such that each hole (15, 20 and 22) may make contact with a particular conductive layer as desired or in the case of ground with all ground conductive layers. Conductive layers (10a) and (10i) may be used as signal layers utilizing traces (14) and holes (15) while layers (10b-h) are so-called power planes.

Patent EP-0301067-A4 (EP)
Title: Apparatus for coating glass.
Inventor: ALBACH EBERHARD R
IPC: C03C17/00
Filed: 1988-02-08
Abstract: A gas distributor beam includes a plenum and distribution slot surrounded by a generally V-shaped cooling fluid chamber. The circulation of a suitable cooling fluid tends to maintain the plenum and distribution slot at a temperature below four hundred degrees Fahrenheit for the distribution of diborane gas to an upper surface of a heated glass ribbon. Carbon blocks are utilized to stabilize the glass temperature above nine hundred fifty degrees Fahrenheit for the proper deposition of boron on the surface of the glass. Insulation between the carbon blocks and the outer walls of the cooling fluid chamber minimize heat transfer and the shape of the cooling chamber minimizes the exposure of the glass to the lower temperatures of the cooling chamber.

Patent EP-0580640-A4 (EP)
IPC: G01R33/387
Filed: 1992-01-03
Abstract: Une paire de bobines (L1 et L2) raccordées en série détectent les variations de bruit dans un champ magnétique de fond en imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM). Bien que les bobines (l1 et L2) soient couplées de manière serrée au générateur primaire de champ magnétique de fond du système d'IRM, ells sont disposées de sorte qu'elles soient sensiblement découplées des champs magnétique à gradient d'IRM à changements rapides. Les circuits détecteurs de bruit commandent un circuit de contre-réaction comprenant un filtre passe-bas (50), un amplificateur (52) et une source de courant régulé (54) commandant un grand circuit correcteur (L3). Le dispositif sert à atténuer le bruit du champ magnétique de fond pendant la saisie de données d'IRM et sur une gamme de fréquences allant de quelques mHz à plus de 100 Hz. De préférence, on l'utilise avec un logiciel existant de stabilisation de champ servant par ailleurs à compenser les variations dans une gamme de fréquences à recouvrement par du courant continu. Ainsi, lorsqu'on les utilise ensemble, on peut atténuer (ou compenser lors d'un traitement ultérieur de données d'IRM) les bruits de champ magnétique de fond, et cela sur une gamme de fréquences allant du courant continu à plus de 100 Hz.

Patent EP-0689689-A4 (EP)
Title: Energy saving power control system
Inventor: BANGERTER FRED F
IPC: H05B41/392
Filed: 1994-03-31
Abstract: Apparatus and methods for AC power regulation primarily intended for inductive loads (e.g., fluorescent lights, motors, etc.) which provide substantial reduction in power consumption while also providing a leading power factor, reduced harmonic distortion, reduced crest factor and reduced noise. The system is self-adjusting for a wide range of loads and can reduce power consumption by 25 percent in lighting loads while producing minimal reduction in light output. The system utilizes a Triac and parallel capacitor bank in series with the load. The Triac is turned on in response to a near-zero differential voltage measured across the Triac and is turned off near the peak of each AC half cycle by shunting current around the Triac. The capacitor absorbs the inductive turn-off voltage spike caused by the collapsing magnetic field in the ballast at the instant of Triac turn-off. This energy, in turn, provides longer on-period for the lamp, thereby permitting more light and increased operating efficiency. The turn-off time is adjusted to regulate power at a reduced level responsive to line voltage, load current and load power-sense signals.

Title: Roll having means for determining pressure distribution
Inventor: MOSCHEL CHARLES
IPC: B30B15/00
Filed: 1995-09-15
Abstract: A roll system for use particularly in a papermaking press nip for dewatering a fibrous web, comprising a roll disposed so as to rotatingly cooperate with another roll in a press nip, the roll having a helical sensor for sensing pressure exhibited on the roll, and transmitting pressure signals to a processor as the roll rotates. Trigger signals are generated at certain times as the roll rotates, the time of the occurrence of the trigger signal representing a specific location on the helical sensor. The pressure signals are coordinated with the trigger signals, such that the pressure corresponds to the angular position of the roll where it is sensed. The operator may thus be given a visual or audible indication of the existence of non-uniformities in pressure sensed at various locations along the roll, thereby enabling corrective action to be initiated if necessary.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical prodrug compositions are provided comprising azide derivatives of drugs which are capable of being converted to the drug in vivo. Azide derivatives of drugs having amine, ketone and hydroxy substituents are converted in vivo to the corresponding drugs, increasing the half-life of the drugs. In addition azide prodrugs are often better able to penetrate the blood-brain barrier than the corresponding drugs. Especially useful are azide derivatives of cordycepin, 2'-F-ara-ddI, AraA, acyclovir, penciclovir and related drugs. Useful azide prodrugs are azide derivatives of therapeutic alicyclic amines, ketones, and hydroxy-substituted compounds, including aralkyl, heterocyclic aralkyl, and cyclic aliphatic compounds, where the amine or oxygen moiety is on the ring, or where the amine or oxygen moiety is on an aliphatic side chain, as well as therapeutic purines and pyrimidines, nucleoside analogs and phosphorylated nucleoside analogs.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant l'émission et la réception d'un signal FM de radiodiffusion audionumérique (DAB) dans la même voie, dans la même bande (IBOC). Le signal audionumérique IBOC (63) est généré dans l'émetteur (47, 49) de façon à occuper les zones de fréquence des bandes latérales supérieures et inférieures (11, 13) du spectre H.F. de la bande FM analogique classique. Des informations binaires sources sont émises de manière redondante dans les bandes latérales supérieures et inférieures, de façon que la perte d'information dans l'une ou l'autre bande latérale (mais pas les deux), due à la grande quantité d'interférences ou de distorsions, n'affecte pas de manière délétère les performances du récepteur audionumérique IBOC. Le système est doté de diversité en fréquence et de diversité en temps. Le récepteur (231, 233) détermine laquelle des estimations binaires des mots codés du signal de bande latérale supérieure ou inférieure est la moins erronée. Le système récepteur choisit des estimations décodées pour chaque paire de mots codés démodulés du code correcteur d'erreurs ou, dans certains modes de réalisation, combine les deux estimations des mots codés du code correcteur d'erreurs avant de décoder.
