Title: Method of and apparatus for reducing the heat load on a greenhouse
IPC: A01G9/24
Filed: 1990-05-07
Abstract: The heat load on a greenhouse (20) containing growing plants (27) is reduced by reducing the transpiration of the plants by reducing the rate of convective heat flow of air across the canopy of the plants. This is achieved by heating and dehumidifying the air in the greenhouse during periods of low light levels, such as at night, so that the need for ventilation is minimized.

Title: A method of forming metal matrix composite bodies by a self- generated vacuum process, and products produced therefrom
Inventor: KANTNER ROBERT CAMPBELL
IPC: C22C1/10
Filed: 1990-07-06
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel process for forming metal matrix composite bodies. Particularly, a suitable matrix metal (33), typically in a molten state, is in contact with a suitable filler material (31) or preform in the presence of a suitable reactive atmosphere in an impermeable container (32), at least at some point during the process, which permits a reaction to occur between the reactive atmosphere and the molten matrix metal (33) and /or filler material (31) or preform and/or impermeable container (32), thereby causing molten matrix metal (33) to infiltrate the filler material (31) or preform due to, at least in part, the creation of a self-generated vacuum. Such self-generated vacuum infiltration occurs without the application of any external pressure or vacuum.

Patent AU-6427890-A (AU)
Title: Machine for automatically feeding warp threads
Inventor: WILHELM KARL
IPC: D03J1/02
Filed: 1990-09-26
Abstract: The feeding machine (SE) has a feed component, means for handling the individual components and a control stage (SM) for the machine's various functions. Said control stage consists of modules (PM, SM, XM, AM) for the various functions in which the individual modules form reliable, independent units and are interconnected via interfaces. The modules are controlled by a computer overriding the control stage via which the transverse connections between the individual modules also pass. The fact that the modules are autonomous provides greater redundancy in the individual functions and allows them to be individually controlled. Thus the individual functions are interdependent to only a reduced extent and faults can be easily located.

Title: Method for fabricating an orthotic member
Inventor: NEBOLON JOSEPH F
IPC: A61F5/058
Filed: 1994-06-27
Abstract: A method is provided for prefitting a stiffened member to a curved body having a geometry approximatable by a cone. Two points are initially selected on the surface of the body which also lie on two different planes passing through the body, such that the intersection of the surface and the planes defines two closed curves. A cone is approximated based on parameters relating to the curves and the selected points. A three-dimensional pattern of a stiffened member is then superimposed onto the conical surface at a modelling position corresponding to the desired placement position of the member on the body. The geometry and dimensions of the pattern are mathematically specified relative to the conical surface and the specifications provide a model for fabricating the prefitted stiffened member. <IMAGE>

Title: Device for equalizing analog circuit parts in an integrated circuit
Inventor: KOBLITZ RUDOLF
IPC: H03J7/04
Filed: 1990-12-18
Abstract: Analog circuit parts in an integrated circuit, for example filters, can be equalized by a control current by equalizing an additional reference circuit part, whose equalization must be verified externally, with this control current. By using a suitably designed horizontal frequency oscillator whose equalization must also be verified, this reference circuit part can be dispensed with even in known TV receivers. Using additional control circuits in the integrated circuit, fine equalization of the various circuit parts can be carried out automatically by adding a small correction control current to each control current. As a result, the control circuits are free from problems related to background noise, interception range and component tolerances. Equalization of analog bipolar or CMOS integrated circuits.

Title: Process and apparatus for biological treatment of effluent
Inventor: MCDONALD ALISTAIR JAMES
IPC: C02F1/32
Filed: 1991-04-23
Abstract: Effluent to be treated is introduced into the top of a first bioreactor (10) through an inlet pipe (16) and, after passing through second and third bioreactors (11 and 12), passes through a settling device (17), the treated effluent then flowing over a depth control weir (18) into an outlet pipe (19). The three bioreactors (10, 11 and 12) and the settling device (17) are housed in a tank having three sets of vertically-staggered transverse partitions (21, 22, 23) and a transverse settling tank partition (24). Each set of staggered partitions (21, 22 and 23) are arranged so that the bioreactors are interconnected in series, the effluent preferably being constrained to pass downwardly through each matrix (13, 14, 15) in turn against an upward discharge of very fine air bubbles from aeration panels (28) which extend under substantially the whole of each matrix. Aerobic bacteria feeds on nutrients in the effluent and grows on the roughened walls of the cross-flow matrix and the air bubbles promote sloughing of the bacteria. The apparatus therefore comprises three or more separate total mixed bioreactors working in sequence, each serving to reduce the biological oxygen demand of all the effluent whereby the biological oxygen demand is progressively reduced.
