Title: Shaving product
IPC: B26B21/22
Filed: 2003-11-17
Abstract: A razor head (2) has mutually spaced blade members (7) with straight front cutting edges (8) which are mutually parallel and lie in a cutting plane (12). The blade members (7) are curved. Imaginary median surfaces (16) of the blade members (7) are continuously curved in the same sense away from the cutting plane (12), from the cutting edges (8) toward the rear edges. The handle (1) has a pair of fork arms (6), the distal ends of which are connected to the head at positions adjacent the respective ends of the head (2). Each fork arm (6) has a groove (49) allowing pivoting of the distal end about a pivot axis parallel to the head axis, the grooves (49) being mutually aligned on the same side of the forked end portion (4) of the handle (1). Each groove (49) is filled with a resiliently deformable material (54) which is deformed when a pivoting force is applied to the razor head (2) during shaving and which restores the razor head (2) to a normal position when the force is removed. The head (2) has undercut apertures (42) in rear abutment surfaces (43), and the distal ends of the fork arms (6) have detent elements (44) projecting forwardly from front abutment surfaces (46). The front and rear abutment surfaces (46,43) abut against one another and the detent elements (44) engage in the undercut apertures (42) in such a manner that the head (2) is fixed relative to the distal ends of the fork arms (6), the distal ends being movable toward one another to disengage the detent elements (44) from the undercut apertures (42) and allow the head (2) to be removed from the handle (1).

Filed: 2004-08-27
Abstract: A desalination process for the production of potable water comprising the steps of extracting at least one distillate stream 150 from at least one higher temperature stage 109 of a Multistage flash distillation (MSF) separation process 100 and supplying said at least one distillate stream to at least one stage of a separation process 200 operating at a lower temperature than said higher temperature so as to maximise the use of sensible heat in said distillate stream by heat transfer in said at least one stage, to lower the external heat input of said at least one stage and of the process overall. The distillate stream is used to provide additional heat exchange to a multiple effect distillation (MED) process 200, a reverse osmosis system (not shown) or to preheat the feed stream of the MSF process.

Title: Electromagnetic band-gap structure
Filed: 2006-08-18
Abstract: An electromagnetic band gap structure is provided including a ground plane and a periodic planar arrangement of surface elements mounted parallel to and at a predetermined distance from the ground plane. Each of the surface elements is supported in the planar arrangement by at least one conducting support element extending from an edge of the surface element to the ground plane, avoiding back-to-back parallel support elements. This arrangement allows for the surface elements and their respective support elements to be folded from flat metal templates to greatly simplify manufacture. An antenna is also provided in which an antenna element is mounted in such a way as to use the electromagnetic band-gap structure as a ground plane. This allows for a low-profile antenna to be made as the antenna element may be mounted close to the plane of surface elements in the structure.
Patent GB-0616688-D0 (GB)
Title: Target orientation
Filed: 2006-08-23
Abstract: A method of target recognition performs a 3D comparison of target and reference data. Translation invariant signatures are derived from the two data sets, and an estimate of the orientation of the target with respect to the reference is obtained. Rotational alignment and comparison can then be achieved. The 3D data sets can be represented on an axi-symmetric surface such as a sphere and rotational convolution, over a discrete set of selected rotation angles can be performed. Optic flow can be used to derive the estimate of orientation or the target relative to the reference, in terms of a displacement field.

Patent GB-8427911-D0 (GB)
Title: Screw-topped containers
IPC: B65D55/02
Filed: 1984-11-05
Abstract: A bottle with a neck (1) has a child-resistant screw closure cap (13). In order to make the cap (13) child-resistant, the neck (1) is fitted with a collar (7) of U-shaped cross- section. The collar (7) is retained on the neck (1) by engagement of pawls (11) inside a portion (8) of the collar under a retaining ring (2) on the neck (1). The cap (13) is screwed onto the part (8) of the collar and to allow this to be done, the collar (7) is prevented from rotating on the neck (1) by engagement of the pawls (11) with ratchet teeth (4) on the outside of the neck (1). The pawls (11) and the ratchet teeth (4) are so shaped that if an attempt is made to unscrew the cap (13) merely by turning it in a counter-clockwise direction as seen from above, the pawls (11) ride over the ratchet teeth (4) so that the collar (7) is lifted on the neck (1) and is free to rotate. To enable the cap (13) to be unscrewed, the cap must be pressed downwards while it is rotated in a counter-clockwise direction to hold the pawls (11) in engagement with the ratchet teeth (4) and thus prevent the collar (7) from turning on the neck (1).

Patent GB-9622243-D0 (GB)
Title: Adaptive vehicle drive system for extreme operating conditions
IPC: B60K17/35
Filed: 1996-10-25
Abstract: An adaptive torque control and distribution system for a motor vehicle having a transfer case, primary driveline and drive wheels and secondary driveline and drive wheels for operation in extreme off road conditions such as sand. The transfer case includes a modulating clutch and a lockup clutch disposed in parallel between its primary (rear) output and secondary (front) output. The system detects abnormally high magnitude and rapidly repeating wheel spin transients which are characteristic of operation in sand or similar highly randomly variable tractive conditions and overrides the on demand torque distribution program for a predetermined time interval. During this predetermined time interval, the transfer case lockup clutch is activated thereby coupling the primary and secondary drivelines and achieving a fifty-fifty torque split therebetween while the modulating clutch is inactive. The system and this operating mode reduces clutch and clutch operator cycling thereby reducing heat generation within the transfer case and increasing clutch and transfer case longevity.

When the shift point map indicates that the ratio shift is appropriate, the system tests for fluctuations in the position of an associated engine accelerator pedal (19) and only actions the shift if the degree of fluctuation of the accelerator pedal position is judged acceptable. The acceptable level of accelerator pedal fluctuation preferably varies with engine speed. <IMAGE>

Patent IT-7820177-D0 (IT)
IPC: F16H57/021
Filed: 1978-02-10
Abstract: A tractor driving system includes an overload coupling in which at least one latch plunger housed in one coupling part fits in a recess of a second part to establish connection. The plunger has or is part of a hydraulic system and can be forced out of the recess upon overload against the hydraulic pressure in the system and, in some instances, with the aid of centrifugal forces if the coupling is rotary. The plunger can be part of a unit that can be releaseably fastened in the coupling housing and set to trip upon torque exceeding a predetermined level on the coupling. Also, the plunger can have internal ducts or external conduits that include a pressure relief valve, as well as a spring return, which can effect connection upon reduced speed when centrifugal force factors are reduced. The pressure in the system can be set remotely with a piston that is spring loaded. In one variation, the coupling can be within a planetary gear system that establishes driving connection from an input to an output via planetary and sun gears. Thus, the planetary gears can be mounted on a carrier that can be held to the housing by a plunger to drive a p.t.o. shaft. Two sets of planetary gears can be mounted within the gear housing to drive the p.t.o. shaft at different speeds and a common plunger used to establish either connection. As part of the system, a distributor can selectively engage either system and a switching member set to allow fluid to pressure the system to a predetermined level.
