Title: Controllable filter arrangement
IPC: H03H11/12
Filed: 1995-03-15
Abstract: A controllable filter arrangement comprises a filter network for filtering an input signal of the filter arrangement, and a transistor, the transistor being configured as a voltage-follower having a controllable current source in its output circuit for providing a controllable DC transistor output current, an output terminal of the voltage-follower being connected to the filter network such that a cut-off frequency of the filter can be controlled by variation of the DC current supplied by the current source. The filter network may be a single-pole RC network and the output of the follower may be connected to an additional capacitor (or resistor) of the network which is coupled to the junction of the existing capacitor and resistor. The effect of the filter arrangement is to create a filter which is controllable between two values of cut-off frequency, depending on whether the additional capacitor (or resistor) is effectively driven or not by the voltage-follower, or which is continuously controllable over a range of cut-off frequencies, depending on the value of the current provided by the current source. <IMAGE>

Date Jun. 19, 1997In a method for distributing securities of portfolio items among a plurality of internal portfolios, each portfolio item has a determined number of securities distributed over each internal portfolio according to a determined consolidation ratio (CRCi,,j-1) attributed to each internal portfolio. A total value (PVj-1) of the portfolio items is determined and a transaction assigned to one portfolio item within one internal portfolio is received, having a transaction value (NCAi). A further consolidation ratio (CRCi,j) is determined for each internal portfolio based on the consolidation ratio (CRCi,j-1), total cash assets (PVj-i), and the transaction value (NCAi). In a further step, a transfer of a determined number of securities is performed, for each portfolio item, from each internal portfolio to the one internal portfolio to which the transaction is assigned. Finally, the transaction is allotted to each of said internal portfolios according to the further consolidation ratio (CRCi,j). The result is that the portfolios are cloned portfolios, i.e. internal portfolios being equivalent on a relative basis.

Patent GB-9926543-D0 (GB)
Title: Flame arrester
IPC: A62C4/00
Filed: 1999-11-09
Abstract: The flame arrester comprises a flow passage in which are disposed a plurality of generally aligned rods such that fluids flowing in the passage must pass between the rods. Rows of rods are used to construct the flame arrester element, ideally closely spaced and these present a natural surface over which air can flow with minimal flow resistance. The rods can be of any size and the gaps between them can be selected to arrest explosions due to different gases or vapours in air. The rod diameter can be altered to withstand different levels of explosion pressure, making it possible to construct both deflagration and detonation flame arresters. If tubes are used these can carry cooling fluid making the arrester more effective at coping with continuous burning. Rods in parallel rows can be offset with respect to the adjacent row. Suitable offset angles can vary.
