Title: Transmitting system and method using data compression
Inventor: KONDO TETSUJIRO
IPC: H04N19/00
Filed: 1986-12-18
Granted: 1990-06-14
Abstract: For transmitting video data in a block format having predetermined number of pixels in each block arranged in coordinates of a two-dimensional configuration, each block is provided with at least one function of a predetermined degree having respective coefficients corresponding to respective terms thereof and defining a plane or curved surface. Parameters are obtained as the coefficients of the selected function to give a value for each of the pixels by performing the function of the respective coordinates, and such parameters are transmitted for each block. At the receiving side, the coordinates of the pixels contained in each block are generated, and the values of the pixels are determined for reconstructing a video image therefrom by performing on the coordinates the function which corresponds to the received parameters.

Title: Aparatus for determining physical quantities
Inventor: SKRGATIC DAMIR MIROSLAV JOSIP
IPC: G01B7/14
Filed: 1981-03-18
Granted: 1984-07-12
Abstract: A distance R to be measured is derived by measuring the spacing xm between a fixed transmitter Tx and a movable receiver Rx, and comparing this with the reference spacing xref between a fixed transmitter Tx' and receiver Rx. Each spacing is measured by passing a large number of pulses sequentially from receiver to transmitter through a.coupling medium, the receipt of one pulse triggering transmission of the next. The spacing is derived from the time Ttaken to pass n pulses; preferably n is fixed and T is measured.

Title: Method of modulating lithographic affinity and printing members made thereby
Inventor: ELLIS ERNEST W
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1998-04-21
Granted: 2002-04-18
Abstract: The lithographic affinity characteristics of a material, such as a polymer, are affected-and thereby selectively modulated-through implantation of one or more metallic materials, typically in the form of ions and/or atoms (or molecules). The desired characteristics are achieved by bulk chemical modification of the material rather than by texturing or deposition of a new surface layer. In the case of a polymer system, for example, the metal impregnates the matrix, penetrating to an observable depth without substantial surface accumulation.

Date Dec. 30, 1987.A method of joining tubes (A and B) having a corrugated wall (10) of fusible plastic material and terminating at a cut through a corrugation rib, comprises the following steps. An annular body (14) expanding when energy is supplied to it, is positioned in an annular space (13) formed by the corrugation ribs at the end of one tube (A) and an inner boundary which can be formed by an inner wall (11) of fusible plastic material, integral with the corrugated wall of said one tube, or by a sleeve inserted into the adjacent ends of the tubes, also of fusible material. The tube ends are put together to close said space by the end of the other tube (13), and a radial and axial support (19) for the corrugation ribs is arranged on the outside of the tubes. Then, the annular body is expanded by heating to fuse said body to the walls of the tubes and the sleeve, respectively.

Granted: 1999-06-03
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB96/02929 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 13, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 13, 1998 PCT Filed Nov. 28, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/25541 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 17, 1997A fastening device comprising a block of plastic material of square or alternative cross section. The block has a threaded bore for the receipt of a bolt which completes the fastening, and additionally, the block has a through slot extending from one end making the block of a U-shape so that it has legs and a base. This configuration is such that the legs can be sprung together so that they can be pushed into the end of a square sectioned cable ladder tube to be connected at right angles to a cable ladder rail, whereupon the legs will spring apart so that a projection on the legs engage in apertures in the tube walls and the block cannot be retracted. To secure the rail to the tube end, the bolt is passed through a hole in the rail and is screwed into the block, which is locked in the tube end. The advantages are pre-insertion of the blocks in the factory and simple assembly of the cable ladder on site, and secure connection joining of the rail and tube ends.

Granted: 2004-01-29
Abstract: A passive RFID tag is provided in a product, and then the product is packaged. Rather than printing a high-quality label that must be optically scanned, and applying the label on the package, shipping and tracking data are encoded in the RFID tag. Then the only thing that needs to be applied to the package is human readable address information, which may be imaged directly on the package, such as by an ink jet printer. The final package need have no label at all, let alone one with shipping and tracking information.

Title: HV impulse testing transformer - with power supply units charged through primary windings has all secondary windings of transformers connected in series
IPC: H01F38/18
Filed: 1969-12-09
Abstract: The object is to provide a simplified excitation scheme for HV impulse testing transformers, especially those using transformer units in cascade. Each transformer has a two limbed core carrying primary and secondary windings on each limb, the secondary windings being connected all in series. In addition one limb carries an excitation winding and an interconnecting winding for the excitation. The impulse power units are connected to the primary winding by a switch. With the excitation supply switched on the power units, typically capacitors are charged up through the primary windings at low voltage. With the supply switched off the control switches change over and the capacitors can be discharged by a command signal from a control unit.

The vessel is connected by a vacuum pipe with a flanged joint (13) to a separate jacket (5B) which is under the same vacuum and contains a boiler (7). Steam condenses in the jacket and drains back to the first vessel, heating the secondary domestic water in the boiler as it condenses. The secondary water temperature is controlled by a steam regulator (10) in the connecting pipe.
Patent DE-2164168-B2 (DE)
Title: Car wash with horizontal brush - has portal reversing control if washing overhang on vehicle
IPC: B60S3/06
Filed: 1971-12-23
Abstract: The horizontal cleaning brush (3) of teh car wash is fitted with a monitor circuit which controls the horizontal movement of the washing portal in proportion to its pressure. This slows the horizontal movement when steeply sloping sections are encountered. An improved control reverses the portal travel when the brush reaches unde an overhanging body section, such as a cab mounted cooling unit (12 on commercial vehicles. The brush motor is fitted with current control relays. One set of relays stops the vertical movement of the brush when the current, and hence the brush pressure drops below a set level. A second current setting is included, higher than the first, to monitor when the rising brush encounters an overhang, and when the brush resistance rises to a maximum. This reverses the portal drive until the obstruction is cleared.

IPC: A01J5/12
Filed: 1992-01-27
Abstract: A pulsator for milking machines comprises a bolt which travels back and forth in a housing and activates a slide. The slide alternately connects the pulsator's outlets to a source of vacuum and to the atmosphere. A diaphragm accommodated in a chamber at each end of the slide moves the bolt back and forth. An alternator is triggered by the slide as it arrives at one end or the other of its stroke. The alternator connects the chambers back and forth and alternately to the source of vacuum and to the atmosphere. The distance between the slide and at least one of the diaphragms is varied to suppress stagger.

IPC: B29D30/52
Filed: 1986-01-31
Abstract: This invention is directed to the retreading of steel belted radial tires by removing and replacing more than the protector ply. Initially, the tire is inspected to determine if it is retreadable. The tire is then buffed so that the protector ply will be located and removed. The first working belt is then located and removed. A steel belt incapulated in uncured rubber will be placed on the tire. Then wedge stock will be applied, isolating the replacement belt. A second replacement belt will be applied for the protector ply with the steel cords going in the opposite direction of the first replacement belt applied. Precured tread rubber will be applied to the casing surface in the usual manner. The assembly is then covered by an envelope and a metal curing band will be applied to the outer surface. The assembly will then be mounted on curing rims and cured in commercially available equipment.
