Abstract: The improved annular sea (10) of the present invention provides a seal across an annular space between facing cylindrical surfaces (20, 24) and includes an outer annular ring (26), and an inner annular ring (28). The gap between the outer annular ring(26) and the inner annular ring (28) is suitably sealed at (27, 29) at one-end thereof so that the open end is open to admit pressure which is to be sealed between the two rings. An outer sealing element (36) is provided on the exterior of the outer annular ring, and an inner sealing element (38) on the interior of said inner annular ring so that pressure exerted between the annular rings urges them apart and their sealing elements against the surfaces of the annular space. In another form of the invention three annular rings are provided with one end of the inner and outer rings being sealing to the end of the intermediate ring and with sealing elements on the exterior of the outer ring and on the interior of the inner ring so that the sealing elements are urged into sealing engagement with the surfaces of the annular space. Another form of the invention includes annular rings which vary in thickness from one end to the other so that they may have greater or less flexibility as needed to provide a response to the pressure responsive movements of the inner and outer members.

Patent AU-531178-B2 (AU)
Title: Digital data timing recovery
Inventor: GALPIN ROBERT KEITH PORTWAY
IPC: H04L7/02
Filed: 1980-09-03
Granted: 1983-08-11
Abstract: The submission makes use of the fact that where an adaptive equaliser (APS) is incorporated in a modem, some sort of training sequence is employed prior to the transmission of the data message. This training sequence usually incorporates a block of pseudo-random data (DIS) transmitted at the basic symbol rate to provide the equaliser (APS) with a relatively less distorted signal to operate on. During the training period both threshold-derived timing (TCTRL) and Nyquist-derived timing (NTRL) are produced. The Nyquist-derived timing (NTRL) is then phase-shifted (APS) to correspond to the threshold derived timing (TCTRL) which is valid during the training period. The phase shift (APS) is then fixed so that, when multi-level coding is introduced valid timing can still be obtained from the Nyquist-derived timing signal (NTRL). In addition in the event of transmission interruptions the invention allows timing recovery without the need for a new training cycle.

Inventor: HOWARD WILLIS E III
IPC: G01N31/22
Filed: 1994-08-17
Granted: 1995-08-10
Abstract: A video test strip reader (10) uses a video imager or camera (12) for viewing a viewing field (14) containing reagent test strips (16) each having test pads (28) reacted with a specimen containing constituents of interest. The video imager produces an analog signal representing an image of the viewing field. An image handler (18) coupled to the video imager converts or digitizes the analog signal into a digital signal representing the image and stores the image in the form of an array of pixels representing the image. Each pixel contains color information broken down into red, green or blue (RGB). A processor (24) coupled to the image handler analyzes the array of pixels, determines the location and orientation of a test strip, identifies the test areas on the test strip, measures the corresponding test areas on the strip at the proper times and calculates the test results, such as the concentration of the constituents of interest in the specimen or other measurable properties of the specimen such as color or specific gravity, etc. Accordingly, the video test strip reader can simultaneously locate, color analyze and time track multiple test strips on the viewing field. <IMAGE>
