Abstract: The detector includes a skate (1) with two housings which contain ultrasonic probes (2). The ultrasonic probes slide vertically in the housings and their position may be adjusted by jacks (9) attached to arms of the skate. The skate (1) has a plastic sole (10) which slides along the rail being tested. The pressure of the skate against the rail may be adjusted by jacks (13) which attach it to a frame (12,22,23) carried under the railway test vehicle. Vibration is reduced by rubber rings (14) between skate and frame and water is fed to and recovered from the path of the ultrasonic probe by channels (15,16). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The compact disc comprises a substrate (1) carrying micro-grooves (2) on one of its faces. These micro-grooves correspond to information which is to be read from the disc by the disc player. On the opposite face of the disc (6), there are further micro-grooves which refract light of visible wavelength. The grooves on the reverse of the compact disc form a pattern which mark the disc and making it difficult to produce pirate copies. The set of grooves form an optical grating covering the whole surface of the disc. A press is also provided for applying this design to the surface of the disc.

Abstract: An intake and exhaust system for use with international combustion engines that uses two intake valves and one exhaust valve for each cylinder. The three valves are preferably round and spaced around the cylinder centreline in the cylinder head. The two intake valves may be spaced closer to the exhaust valve than to each other. The two intake valves may, alternatively, be spaced closer to each other than to the exhaust valve and two spark plugs may be provided, each lying between an intake valve and the exhaust valve. For best results, the two intake valves have substantially equal diameters, with the diameter of the exhaust valve having a ratio to the diameter of an intake valve of from about 1:1 to 1:1:2. The head has three substantially hemispheric depressions, each housing one of said valves. Squish areas are preferably provided between each pair of adjacent valves around the combustion chamber periphery. This invention provides a fast and uniform lean-burn, permits use of a high compression ratio and lower octane, unleaded gasoline and provides improved thermal efficiency. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to processing speech coding parameters in a telecommunication system. The speech coding parameters of a speech frame, produced by a speech encoder, are divided into groups, i.e. so-called virtual channels, in which speech parameter error correction, channel coding and processing of error-free or erroneous speech parameters are performed independently. At the receiving end, the processing (505) of erroneous and error-free speech parameters can thus be controlled independently on each virtual transmission channel (502) according to the quality of each virtual transmission channel. The speech parameters of the high-quality virtual channels of a speech frame can thus be processed as error-free, replacing the speech coding parameters of the low-quality virual channels only. The independently processed (505) speech parameters of the virtual channels are thus reassembled (507) into a speech frame, which is applied to decoding. Since part of the information of also erroneous speech frames is utilized, the use of speech information received from a transmission channel can be increased in speech decoding, which reduces for instance interruptions occurring in speech as compared with a situation where all speech frames erroneous even to a slight degree were discarded. The increased and more focused error indication also reduces the number of undetected errors and thus reduces significantly the worst audible disturbances.

Abstract: A liquid specimen collection device includes a main body provided with a passage extending between opposite ends of the main body that defines a capillary tube liquid specimen flow path. One end of the passage opens at a tip end of the body member that is positionable adjacent a liquid specimen for introducing the liquid specimen into the passage while the opposite end of the passage opens at a body surface of the body which surrounds and extends outwardly from the opposite end of the passage. A test paper soaked in reagent is secured to the main body adjacent the opposite end of the passage. A liquid sample introduced into the passage at the tip end of the body member flows by capillary action along the passage to the opposite end of the passage where the specimen is then absorbed by the test paper. The test paper is secured to the body member at a plurality of spaced apart securement locations along a peripheral portion of the test paper with gaps being located between adjacent securement locations through which air is permitted to flow during liquid specimen flow along the liquid specimen flow path. The test paper includes a centrally located protuberance and an annular protuberance extending around the outer circumferential portion of the test paper. The end surface of the tip end of the body member can be provided with a groove extending between the outer peripheral surface of the tip end and the passage in the body member. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A novel and improved method and apparatus for generating a constant data rate channel supporting signaling data transmission in an adjustable rate wireless communication system is described. In accordance with one aspect of the invention the rate at which the channel operates may be adjusted based on the particular use and environmental conditions such that the appropriate data rate up to a maximum capability can be achieved. User data is then placed into frames based on the selected rate. When available, signaling data is added into each frames in a predetermined amount. The resulting frame is encoded, repeated and punctured based on the selected rate and whether signaling data has been introduced, and transmitted via RF signals to the receive system. Upon reception, the frame is processed in accordance with having only user data and with having signaling data. That is, the frame is processed both as if it had signaling data and as if no signaling data were present. Once the frame is processed, the particular processing that is more likely to be correct is determined via error checking. If the signaling data processed frame is more likely to have be correct, the signaling data is separated from the user data and each processed accordingly. If the non-signaling data processing is determined to be more likely to be correct, the frame is processed as if it were entirely comprised of user data.

Abstract: A cap operated retractable medical device (10) has an outer body with a hinged connected outer cap (30) which moves between an open and a closed position. The device is used as a blood sampler with a conventional collection tube normally used in such devices. A movable member (40) is entirely enclosed within the outer body. A sliding interference or friction fit holds a retraction body within the mouth of the movable member, and also holds the front end of the movable member within the outer body positioned with the retraction body adjacent a stop. A double ended needle (88) is installed in the retraction body. Cam protrusions (38) on the cap engage the back of the movable member to move it forward as the cap is closed, thereby triggering retraction of the retraction body and its double ended needle entirely within the outer body. Once the cap is closed with the double ended needle safely inside, the device can be safely handled. The device is compact. It can be as short as the needles it will safely contain.
