Title: Frequency division multiplexed analog to digital converter
Inventor: BALABAN ALVIN REUBEN
IPC: H04N9/45
Filed: 1987-04-28
Granted: 1990-06-14
Abstract: In the described embodiment of the invention, a digital television receiver, having a line locked clock (CK), includes a first digital phase locked loop (232-252) which regenerates quadrature phase related subcarrier signals that are used to synchronously demodulate (232, 234) the chrominance signal components of composite video signals into color information signals. When nonstandard video signals (e.g., from a video tape recorder) are processed by the receiver, frequency instabilities in the line locked clock signal may cause the colour information signals to be distorted. To compensate for this distortion, a second phase locked loop (300) is synchronized to a reference signal generated by an analog oscillator (310). The analog reference signal is linearly added (314) to baseband analog video signals. The combined signals are digitized by an analog-to-digital converter (211) and then filtered by parallel low-pass and band-pass filters (301, 304) to develop digital signals representing the video signals and the reference signal, respectively. The digital reference signal is used to synchoronize the second phase locked loop (300), the control signals of which (from 320) are used to compensate (328) the first phase locked loop (232-252) for frequency instabilities in the clock signal. More generally, the invention envisages the use of a single analog-to-digital converter for digitizing combined analog signals (e.g. video and auxiliary signals) which occupy different frequency bands, the digitized signals being separated by filtering before being supplied to respective utilization or processing circuits.

Title: A method of endrounding loose fibres
Inventor: BOUCHERIE BART GERARD
IPC: A46D9/02
Filed: 1998-08-12
Granted: 2002-03-07
Abstract: For implant molding of toothbrushes pre-cut and pre-rounded fiber of thermoplastic material are used. Loose fibers are presented to an endrounding tool in a tuft or bundle and the free ends of the fibers are exposed to a working surface of the tool. Relative movement between the fiber ends and working surface causes the material of the fibers to be heated by friction of a predetermined intensity. The fibers while they are exposed to the working surface of the tool are permitted to flex laterally and are held in an axial direction of the tuft or bundle with their free ends commonly defining a surface different from a plane which is perpendicular to the axial direction, thereby achieving a substantially consistent flexing resistance throughout the cross-section of the tuft or bundle with respect to lateral deflection upon engagement by the endrounding tool.

Title: Stand-alone biometric identification system
Inventor: GLAZE MARY L
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 1998-09-25
Granted: 2002-05-30
Abstract: A distributed biometric identification system incorporates stand-alone workstations. The system generally includes a plurality of stand-alone workstations capable of communicating with a central server remotely located from the workstations. The workstations receive input biometric data, such as fingerprint and photographic data, and compares that data to biometric data stored in the workstation. The workstation compares the input biometric data with stored biometric data to determine whether any of the stored biometric data matches the input biometric data. The results of the comparison are provided to the workstation screen. Workstation mobility is improved by housing the workstation in a self-contained, compartmentalized carrying case. Workstation mobility may be even further enhanced by housing the workstation in a so-called lunchbox configuration having a main body, a front panel hinged to the main body, and a back panel hinged to the main body. The front and back panels each have a stowed position adjacent the main body, and a deployed position away from the main body. When the panels are in their stowed positions, the workstation (i.e., main body, front panel, and back panel) is a compact, portable unit.

Title: Dewaterer for vehicle pneumatic systems - incorporating a spring-loaded piston for automatic condensate removal
IPC: F16T1/14
Filed: 1969-12-11
Abstract: The de-waterer for vehicle pneumatic systems, consisting of a condensate collector (1), a membrane (2) and inlet and outlet valves, is designed for automatic removal of condensate from the collector by incorporating beneath the membrane a spring-loaded piston (4) which can move vertically. The piston has an open hollow ring (5) underneath and fits round a rod (6), which carries the plates of the inlet and outlet valveS. When there is a drop in pressure in the condensate collector (1) (e.g. when the compressor is switched off) the compressed air in the lower part of the collector applies upward pressure to membrane (2), which lifts seal washer (3) and rod (6), opening the outlet valve. The condensate in the bottom of the collector is then blown out by the compressed air there, and the valve closes as the pressures balance.

Patent DE-2227203-B2 (DE)
IPC: G04B19/20
Filed: 1972-06-05
Abstract: Timepiece, in which an upper disc rotates over a lower disc, these two discs being constructed as time-indicating elements. The lower, fixed disc projects radially over the upper disc, which is driven by the clockwork. A window is arranged in the upper, driven disc between the centre and the circumference. This window uncovers the view onto the lower disc. Twelve successive areas of different coloration are provided on the lower disc, so that it is possible to detect areas of different coloration through the window depending on the position of the upper, rotatable disc. The view onto the window thus permits the time to be read off as a function of the colour. The time can likewise be determined from the angular position of the window with respect to the housing, so that it is possible even when the assignment of specific colours to specific hours is not known for the time to be determined and, in the process, for the assignment of specific colours to specific hours to be learned. The co-operation of the window with an interpolation scale mounted on the projecting edge region of the lower disc permits intermediate times to be determined between successive full hours. <IMAGE>
