Patent GB-8929117-D0 (GB)
Title: Autopilot system
IPC: B63H25/24
Filed: 1989-12-22
Abstract: An autopilot system for a vessel such as a boat has an autopilot unit (15) connected via a drive (14) to the rudder (10) or other direction determining means of the vessel. When the autopilot unit (15) is operating normally, direction information from e.g. a heading sensor is processed by the autopilot unit (15) and the drive (14) iscontrolled by the autopilot unit (15) to determine the appropriate position of the rudder (10). The rudder (10) is also linked to a steering wheel (12) or other manual steering arrangement. When the steering wheel is moved during normal operation of the autopilot unit (15), this causes an interference with the control of the rudder (10) by the drive (14) and, if this interference has sufficient magnitude and duration, this triggers override of the autopilot unit (15), returning the vessel to manual control via the steering wheel (12). The override may alternatively be triggered by detection of rudder movement by a sensor (18). <IMAGE>

Patent GB-9319773-D0 (GB)
Title: Mechanically floating multi-chip substrate
IPC: H01L23/36
Filed: 1993-09-24
Abstract: A multi-chip module includes a mechanically floated substrate on which integrated circuit devices are mounted. The substrate is located within a heat exchanger. In one embodiment, a spring or an array of springs biases the substrate upwardly to press the integrated circuit devices against a surface within the heat exchanger. The substrate is displaceable with respect to the heat exchanger, allowing accommodations to differences in thermal expansion coefficients and to non-uniformities resulting from less than exact manufacturing tolerances of the substrate, the heat exchanger and the integrated circuit devices. Another embodiment includes resting the substrate on a conformable membrane that is used to entrap a fixed volume of thermally-conductive liquid. The membrane-and-liquid arrangement mechanically floats the substrate and ensures a proper integrated circuit device/exchanger thermal interface. A flexible multi-conductor interconnect is electrically coupled to the substrate to allow conduction of signals to and from the substrate without interfering with the ability of the substrate to float mechanically. Also disclosed is a module in which the membrane-and-liquid arrangement is used at the integrated circuit device side of the substrate to achieve a deformable electrical and thermal flow path from the integrated circuit devices to the heat exchanger. The membrane adapts to variations in the heights and/or angles of the integrated circuit devices.

Title: Fluid dispensing systems
IPC: B67D7/06
Filed: 1993-11-26
Abstract: A dispensing system for a wine or beer barrel comprises a float (9) adapted to float in the fluid in the vicinity of its free surface (23) within the barrel (1), and a supply pipe (5) having an input end (20) connected to the float (9) so that the input end (20) opens in the vicinity of the free surface (23) of the fluid. The supply pipe (5) has an output end (10) which extends through the wall of the barrel (1) and opens externally of the barrel (1). Thus, when the dispenser is fitted to the barrel and suitable supply pressure is applied, fluid is drawn off from the vicinity of the free surface (23) by way of the input end (20) and is supplied to a location outside the barrel (1) by way of the output end (10). By ensuring that the beer is always drawn off from the vicinity of the free surface whatever the level of beer within the barrel, such a system provides improved quality of dispensed beer and presents much less risk of the beer being clouded by sediment.
Patent GB-9508127-D0 (GB)
Title: Barrier locking device and barrier incorporating such device
IPC: E05B65/00
Filed: 1995-04-21
Abstract: One end of a barrier, such as a gate, is conventionally hingedly mounted at a first post so that it can be swung over a wide arc towards or away from a second post to which it would normally he locked. The means of locking comprise a plate (11) secured to the gate at its other end, and a housing (13) within said second post. The plate carries a pair of spaced upper and lower pins (9, 10) which in the closed position of the gate pass through respective holes (7, 8) in the second post and are disposed respectively above and below the housing (13), the pins having respective notches (12A, 12B) therein. The housing contains a key operated barrel lock (15) arranged to be operated to extend or retract in opposite directions respective plungers (19A, 19B), which move into or out of engagement with a respective one of the notches (12A, 12B) to lock the gate to the second post. The lower pin (10) prevents lifting of the gate to cause release of the upper pin (19) from its associated notch (12A) and thus unauthorised unlocking of the gate. <IMAGE>

Title: Thermal imaging system
IPC: H04N5/365

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB96/01805 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 9, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 9, 1998 PCT Filed Jul. 29, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/05742 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 13, 1997A thermal sensing system (10) including an array of photon detectors (14) produces a detector-dependent response to irradiation. Variations in individual detector characteristics produce a fixed pattern noise which degrades an image or other response. A switchable mirror (M1) may at one position (Pcal) direct infrared radiation from a light emitting diode (20) onto the detector array (14). The diode (20) is both a negative and positive luminescent emitter, the flux emitted is current controlled to be equivalent to black body radiation at a range of temperatures both colder and hotter than ambient. Calibration relationships comprising transfer functions relating incident intensity to signal response are derived for each detector. Alternatively the mirror (M1) may be at an observation position (Pobs) and infrared radiation from a remote scene reaches the detector array (14). Resulting detector signals are converted into corrected fluxes using individual calibration relationships previously derived and an image or response with reduced fixed pattern noise is obtained.

Inventor: OLOFSSON ULLA
IPC: D04H1/70
Filed: 2000-08-28
Abstract: The article (1) contains a liquid-receiving layer (5) obtained by pleating and heating a carded web of elastic fibres and heat-meltable binder fibres. An absorbent article (1) comprises a liquid-permeable surface material (2), a liquid-tight bottom layer (3), an absorbent body (4) between these permeable and liquid-tight layers, and a liquid-receiving layer between the surface material and absorbent body. The liquid-receiving layer is a carded fibrous web comprising a mixture of elastic fibres and heat-meltable binder fibres, the latter having a lower melting point than the elastic fibres. The web is pleated and a high proportion of the fibres in the web come to be oriented in the z-direction, substantially at right angles to the length and cross-direction of the web. Binding of the web is brought about by blowing hot air onto it at a temperature greater than the binder fibre melting point, but less than the elastic fibre melting point. The walls of the pleats are bonded together to stabilize the pleated structure.
