Title: Product information system for shoppers
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 1992-08-20
Abstract: The present invention teaches apparatus, method and use for a portable shopper product information remote unit. A plurality of remote units are provided to shoppers within a retail establishment which uses bar code scanners at a cashier's counter to record a shopper's purchase. The units are retrieved from each shopper subsequent to a finished purchase and returned to a central maintenance system. The remote units are updated with at least updated pricing information such that the bar code scanners at the cashier's counters and the remote units are provided with the same updated product pricing information. Security mechanisms are provided so that these remote units cannot be removed from the retail establishment by unauthorized persons. The present invention also features a Product Information System (PISYS) which presents advertising and product information to shoppers. An artificial intelligence system presents advertising and general product information. The system determines the shopper's tastes from choices which the shopper expresses explicitly and from characterizations which it infers by examining the shopper's buying habits. When the shopping session is complete, the PISYS shopping cart transfers relevant information to a PISYS check-out counter, which transfers it directly to an in-house central computer. This data is analyzed by the in-house central computer, which provides accurate, timely measures of the effectiveness of any change in store strategy.

Inventor: MCGINN JOSEPH T
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 1999-02-10
Abstract: An inhaler disc cartridge comprises a carrier disc with radially outwardly extending resilient fingers, each with a medicament powder dosage. A sealing disc and an indexing ring are bonded to the disc. A cam sequentially and manually deflects a selected finger causing it to snap against an anvil to release the dosage by momentum energy transfer. In other embodiments, a cassette includes a carrier substrate reel of deposited powder dosages with a dosage sealing tape. The substrate comprises a belt with a plurality of transversely extending triangular fingers, each finger tip with a dosage thereon. Each finger is snapped in sequence against an anvil while a clamp secures the belt as the fingers are deflected. The spring fingers are corrugated in one embodiment cooperating with an anvil having channels and a device for inducing agglomeration breakup air streams through the channels. Other embodiments are for impact deflection of a dosage carrying substrate in a cartridge or cassette against an anvil to release the dosages.

Title: Method and plant for pulling-off the hide or skin of animal carcasses
IPC: A22B7/00
Filed: 1989-02-10
Abstract: A method and a plant for pulling-off of the hide or skin of animal carcasses, wherein the plant forms part of a slaughtering line in a slaughterhouse. The carcasses are transported continuously on a transport path (23, 24) suspended from all four legs in an essentially horizontal position and with the longitudinal direction of the carcass in the movement direction of the transport path. In a lead-in area (1) of the path the rearward legs, as viewed in the transport direction, are retained in relation to the movement of the forward legs, and the carcass (9) thereafter is fed under tension with an essentially constant distance between the suspension points of the forward and rearward legs. After preflaying the hide/skin is pulled off by a stripper means, preferably a rotatable drum (91), which, in a stationary operative position below the back of the carcass (16), executes the stripping operation while the carcass (16) passes the stripper means (91).

Patent AU-3816893-A (AU)
Title: Composition and process for treating metal
Inventor: DOLAN SHAWN E
IPC: C23C22/34
Filed: 1993-03-26
Abstract: Heating an aqueous mixture of a fluoroacid such as H2TiF6 and an oxide, hydroxide, and/or carbonate such as silica produces a clear mixture with long term stability against settling of any solid phase, even when the oxide, hydroxide, or carbonate phase before heating was a dispersed solid with sufficiently large particles to scatter light and make the mixture before heating cloudy. The clear mixture produced by heating can either be mixed e with water soluble and/or water dispersible polymers that are polyhydroxyalkylamino- substituted polymers and/or copolymers of p-vinyl phenol, or with soluble hexavalent and/or trivalent chromium, to produce a composition that improves the corrosion resistance of metals treated with the composition, especially after subsequent painting.

Title: Roller coaster control system
Inventor: RUDE GREGORY J
IPC: A63G7/00
Filed: 2000-04-05
Abstract: A dueling or racing roller coaster ride has tracks which approach or cross over each other at near miss locations. A controller system controls the timing of launch of a roller coaster vehicle on each track to better achieve consistent simultaneous arrival of the roller coaster vehicles at the near miss locations, to provide increased thrills and excitement to the riders. The control system determines the loaded vehicle weight via current draw on the track side vehicle motors. The control system generates a vehicle performance parameter, based on past vehicle speed over the track, to compensate for roller resistance and aerodynamic factors. The vehicle weight information and performance parameters are used to determine which vehicle to launch first, and the amount of delay between launching the vehicle on the first track and launching the vehicle on the second track, to better achieve simultaneous arrival at one or more locations.

Title: Telecommunication device for the deaf with automatic self-identification
Inventor: ENGELKE ROBERT M
IPC: H04M11/04
Filed: 1993-05-19
Abstract: A telecommunication device for the deaf includes a self-identification sequence which automatically commences upon the initiation of communication with the device. The self-identification sequence consists of a series of characters which may be separated by pauses and the device listens during the pauses to see if TDD communication has been established. The purpose of the character string is so that a receiving station can identify, with a low rate of error, a calling TDD and therefore switch the incoming call to a TDD equipped operator. This capability is particularly useful for emergency service operators (911 services) which must be able to handle incoming TDD calls with a maximum of efficiency and a minimum of error.

Title: Method for the epigenetic regulation of protein biosynthesisby scale resonance
Inventor: STERNHEIMER JOEL
IPC: A61K41/00
Filed: 1993-06-02
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the epigenetic regulation of protein biosynthesis which consists in using, on the biosynthesis of proteins, scale resonance regulating action of sound transpositions of temporal sequences of quantum vibrations associated with their elongation; said action may be a stimulation or an inhibition of said biosynthesis depending on whether the modulation of the frequences of vibrations used is in phase with or of opposite phase to said elongation. The result is further stabilized by the action of coloured transpositions of groups of quantum vibrations arising from the spacial conformation of proteins from said elongation. The applications, particularly in the agri-foodstuff and health industries, include for implementation purposes a method of defining the metabolic role of proteins from their aminoacid sequences.
