Title: Winding a package of tape
Inventor: CONNOR LAWRENCE O
IPC: B65H54/28
Filed: 1984-07-19
Abstract: A package of tape is formed with flanged portions built up at the ends and a central helical traverse portion. The flanged portions are effectively formed by a plurality of separate spiral windings each of which is interlocked with each other and the central traverse portion. The central portion is formed from a plurality of helical traverses with reversal positions slightly inside the inner edge of the flanged portions. Either the central traverse portion or the flanged portions is built up first to form a step following which the other is built up to meet the step. The step cannot be so high that the tape cannot traverse the step. The extreme ends of the package is thus formed by the stable spiral windings while edge drop-off from the ends of the traverse portion is limited to height of the last helical traverse.

Title: A wireless telephone that rapidly reacquires a timing reference from a wireless network after a sleep mode
Inventor: ROBERTS CLARENCE V
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1999-11-17
Abstract: A method for rapidly reacquiring a timing reference after a sleep period in a wireless telephone receiving pilot signals from one or more base stations in a wireless network, wherein the wireless telephone has a master timer (local time reference), a fast, accurate clock source, a slow, less accurate but power efficient clock source and a memory. The method includes the steps of entering the sleep period by storing one or more parameters related to the pilot signals and how the pilot signals are changing over time, calculating a prediction of the parameters of the pilot signals after a sleep period based on the stored parameters, storing the prediction, starting the slow clock, and stopping the master timer (local time reference) and fast clock source. The method further includes the steps of ending the sleep period by generating a wake-up interrupt by the slow clock after the sleep period, restarting the master timer and fast clock source responsive to the wake-up interrupt, and reacquiring pilot signals using the predictions stored previously. A time correction factor can then be computed that closely aligns the received pilot signals on the prediction which is then weighted and the master timer is adjusted by the weighted time correction.

Title: Splice tray
Inventor: NORRIS STEPHEN HENRY
IPC: C03B37/14
Filed: 1989-02-27
Abstract: An optic fibre splice tray (Figure 1A) is provided with reels (3, 4,) which can be moved towards and away from the outer walls (132, 133) of optic fibre compartments (1A, 1B) in order to hold the coiled optic fibres closely in position. This prevents kinks developing which could lead to light losses. Also, slots (58, 59, 60 and 61) are provided in the wall portions (56, 57) to enable an optic fibre (F1) to be conducted from one compartment to another and thence to be joined (X) to another fibre (F2) which approaches the splice tray from the same direction. Unnecessary bending of the optic fibres is again thereby avoided. A splice protector housing 44 is releasably attached to the lid (2) of the splice tray and removable link members (28, 29) are also provided which fit into apertures (34, 35, 36 and 37) of adjacent trays in a stack to enable the splice trays to be stacked without risk of breakage of an integral portion of any splice tray.

Title: Method of particle formation
Inventor: HANNA MAZEN HERMIZ
IPC: A61K9/16
Filed: 1999-02-26
Abstract: The invention provides a method for forming particles of a substance 2, comprising: (a) preparing a solution or suspension of the substance in a vehicle 6; (b) introducing the solution or suspension into a particle formation vessel 1 via a fluid inlet means 5; and (c) introducing with the solution or suspension a primary supercritical fluid 8 capable of acting as an anti-solvent for the substance, under conditions which allow the supercritical fluid to extract the vehicle from the solution or suspension and hence cause the formation of particles of the substance; wherein a (preferably supercritical) secondary fluid 12 is introduced into the particle formation vessel with the solution or suspension and/or the primary supercritical fluid, upstream of or at the point at which particle formation occurs, the secondary fluid having a lower capacity for extracting the vehicle than that of the primary supercritical fluid. The invention also provides the use of such a secondary fluid for the purpose of eliminating, at least substantially, blocking of the fluid inlet means and/or of the fluid supply line(s) to the inlet means, in such a particle formation method, and/or for the purpose of reducing pressure fluctuations in the fluid inlet means and/or fluid supply line(s).
Patent AU-3392693-A (AU)
Title: Strip of material
Inventor: SJOSTROM ANDERS
IPC: B65D65/34
Filed: 1993-03-02
Abstract: Strips of material for manufacture of packaging containers are sometimes provided with aids to opening in the form of pull tabs (3), which extend transversely across the strip of material (1). When the tab (3) is folded round one longitudinal side of the strip (1) damage to the projecting tab parts is prevented by the fact that the fold is made round a part of the rear edge (4) which is provided with a cut-out (7) in the form of an arc of a circle. This is particularly important when the strip is formed into a roll, since the tab parts which project outside the end surface of the roll can easily be damaged during handling of the roll. <IMAGE>

Patent AU-4664189-A (AU)
Title: Composting method and apparatus utilizing air assist to aid in movement of organic matter
Inventor: SCHIENE THOMAS M
IPC: C05F17/02
Filed: 1989-12-07
Abstract: A composting method and apparatus is disclosed for accelerated decomposition of organic matter. The organic matter is deposited into a chamber of a vessel. A ram moves through a relatively short stroke within one end of the vessel so that organic matter deposited in the vessel at one end may be moved through the chamber and discharged at the other end as a result of each successive charge of material pushing the preceding charge forward through the vessel by the action of the ram. The vessel includes a set of orifices in a floor of the chamber for introducing pressurized air into the vessel. During the normal composting operation, pressurized air passes through these orifices at a relatively low intensity to aerate the organic matter. At certain times during operation of the ram, a surge of pressurized air will be introduced into the chamber of the vessel through the orifices at such an intensity as to effect movement of the organic matter through the chamber with a ram force which is substantially less than the ram force required to move the organic matter absent the surge of air. This provides a substantially less dense mass of organic matter moving through the chamber of the vessel than would be produced without the delivery of the surge of pressurized air.

Filed: 2000-05-08
Abstract: An implantable cardiac rhythm management device adapted to receive and digitize electrocardiogram signals from leads placed on or in the heart and capable of automatically adjusting an evoked response detection threshold dependent upon a modulation of the amplitude of the evoked response. Respiration, activity level, and lead maturation, among others, all effect the modulation of the evoked response and the amplitude of a signal associated with evoked response. The present invention automatically adjusts the evoked response detection threshold to account for this modulation. Without limitation, the automatic adjustment of the evoked response detection threshold may be utilized during an automatic capture verification sequence. In the event of non-capture or fusion beats during an automatic adjustment, the evoked response detection threshold is not adjusted.
