Abstract: The present invention is directed to cold water swellable starches exhibiting delayed viscosity development, preparation and use thereof. The cold water swellable starches are prepared using methods known in the art and then are compacted. These starches provide all the advantages of CWS starch, including texture, heavy body, glossy sheen, and viscosity. However, the rate of hydration may be controlled to delay viscosity development. Such starches may be used for a variety of industrial applications including food products, personal care products, cleansers, liquid detergents and fabric softeners, oil-well drilling, and paints and allow for easier processing of such products.

Abstract: A marine vessel cleaning assembly (1) comprising cleaning means (5, 6) and displacement means (17a, 17b) supported on a framework (18) for location under the water, the cleaning means comprising a pair of brushes (5, 6) rotatably mounted on a pair of arms (3, 4) which are pivotable about a submerged axis (A-A). In use the brushes are caused to rotate and contact fouling on the hull of the vessel and are pivoted generally upwardly and downwardly of the hull, the vessel being conveyed with respect to the pivotal axis of the arms (3, 4) so that the entire hull of the floating vessel may be cleaned. The inventive cleaning assembly advantageously eliminates the significant financial costs associated with arranging for a marine vessel to remain on hard-standing and also reduces the time required to clean the hull of a marine vessel.

Abstract: A method for labelling articles having an arbitrary peripheral surface shape including non-cylindrically shaped articles (86) for identification by visually impaired persons comprises the steps of providing a continuous web of sheet of material (90) on a roll (92), unwinding the continuous web of material to expose a particular segment of the sheet of material for use as a label (82) on the article, depositing, on the particular sheet segment, a tactilely-distinguishable marking comprising a viscous liquid (136) for identifying said article to visually impaired persons by touch, cutting the predetermined sheet segment portion from the web with the deposited marking, and applying the sheet segment portion to the article. The tactile marking is deposited on the sheet segment portion after the material has been unwound from the unwindable roll and immediately before attachment of the label to the article so that the sheet segment portion having the marking is applied to the article without any intermediate storage. There is also described a labelling machine for applying the labels, which includes a computer for controlling a vacuum drum (112), liquid application means, a cutter (110), roll material rotating means, and a chuck (14) for holding and rotating the article, substantially simultaneously so that the article is labelled with the label segment at a predetermined desired label location on the article and so that the tactilely distinguishable mark is deposited at a predetermined desired mark location on the label. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A driver circuit operating in stages that comprise a programming stage and a reproduction stage, the circuit comprising: a plurality current paths each of which passes through the circuit, a current driven element, a transistor connected so as operatively to control the current supplied to the said element, a capacitor connected for storing an operating voltage of the transistor during the programming stage, and switching means which control the current paths, the arrangement being such that one of the current paths does not include the said element. No current is applied to the current driven element by the current controlling transistor during the programming stage and thus the overall power consumption is reduced. Furthermore, the circuit can be operated from a normal supply voltage rather than requiring a high bias voltage. During the programming stage, the circuit uses a current sink rather than a current source. Preferably, the current driven element is an electroluminescent element. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A flash memory having redundancy content addressable memory (CAM) circuitry is described. The flash memory is capable of substituting a second memory cell for an inoperative memory cell. The flash memory includes a primary array of memory cells, a redundant array of memory cells, and the redundancy CAM circuitry. The redundancy CAM circuitry includes a plurality of dual-ported CAM stages. Each CAM stage includes a CAM cell, a write data bus coupled to the CAM cell, and a read data bus coupled to the CAM cell. The CAM cell stores information regarding a location of an inoperative memory cell in the primary array. The inoperative memory cell requires a substitution with a second memory cell in the redundant array. The write data bus produces the information from the CAM cell responsively to a write select signal. The write select signal is indicative of a write operation to be performed at memory cell locations in the primary array. The read data bus produces the information from the CAM cell responsively to a read select signal. The read select signal is indicative of a read operation to be performed at memory cell locations in the primary array.
