Title: Flexible bow seal air ride boat hull.
Inventor: BURG DONALD E
IPC: B63B1/38
Filed: 1983-07-11
Abstract: A marine surface vessel with at least one recess (56) that intersects the hull (14) substantially beneath the static waterline thereof, the recess (56) bounded by sidehulls (15, 16), flexible seal member (17) at its forward portion, with bow shaped members at its aft portion (19) and optionally therebetween (18). The flexible seal member (17) is to absorb much of the initial wave impact to improve ride quality. The recess (56) is supplied with pressurized gas to maintain a lift-augmenting gas layer under the hull (14), which is to improve efficiency, speed, load carrying capability and ride quality. Bow shaped members (18, 19) and sidehulls (15, 16) are to provide sure tracking and turning characteristics, proper hull attitude and trim even if the pressurized gas supply is wholly or partially inoperative. In the preferred embodiment, the sidehull keels (22, 23) diverge to allow a smaller seal (17) width forward between the sidehulls (15, 16) to reduce gas leakage forward and provide a smoother ride.

IPC: B32B27/08
Filed: 1985-04-05
Abstract: Récipient (20) possédant une enveloppe extérieure rigide ou semi-rigide (22) et une doublure intérieure flexible coétendue (24) que l'on fait adhérer faiblement ou temporairement à l'enveloppe (22) afin de permettre une fabrication plus commode du récipient (20) et qui est pourtant repliable de manière à permettre la distribution du contenu (28) sans air de déplacement, ainsi qu'un site d'accès (58) déterminé dans la paroi du récipient à laquelle peut être fixé un montage d'accès (26). On peut faire adhérer faiblement la doublure (24) à l'enveloppe (22) grâce à un adhésif à faible résistance à la traction bien qu'il soit aussi possible d'utiliser l'adhérence naturelle ou l'attraction électrique statique. Alternativement, un adhésif dégradable peut être utilisé pour maintenir la doublure (24) et l'enveloppe (22) ensemble pendant le montage; mais il s'affaiblit à un point inférieur au seuil de libération entre l'enveloppe et la doublure avant la période d'utilisation. Le site d'accès (58) est déterminé de préférence par un pli annulaire (60) dans la paroi du récipient qui capture étroitement la doublure (24) afin de former une fermeture hermétique périphérique mécanique entre l'enveloppe (22) et la doublure (24) autour du site d'accès afin d'empêcher une fuite de liquide dans la zone entre l'enveloppe (22) et la doublure (24). Le récipient (20) est particulièrement utile en tant que biberon, comportant un site d'accès à tétine (58) avec un montage de tétine fixé (26).

Patent EP-0235257-A4 (EP)
Title: Multiplexed digital packet telephone communication method.
Inventor: GOLLUB RAPHAEL
IPC: H04B1/66
Filed: 1986-08-20
Abstract: An efficient system for simultaneously conveying a large number of telephone conversations over a much smaller number of relatively low-bandwidth digital communication channels is disclosed. Each incoming telephone speech signal is filtered, periodically sampled, and digitized. An efficient computational speech compression algorithm is applied to transform a sequence of digitized speech samples into a much shorter sequence of compression variables. The compression variable sequence is further processed to construct a minimum-length bit string, and an identifying header is appended to form a packet. Only a few packets containing information on representative background noise are generated during pauses in speech, thereby conserving digital bandwidth. The packets are queued and transmitted asynchronously over the first available serial digital communication channel. Numerical feedback to the compression algorithm is employed which results in the packet size being reduced during periods of high digital channel usage. Packet header information is utilized to establish a "virtual circuit" between sender and receiver.

Title: High efficiency converter.
Inventor: TUSON RODNEY RHYS
IPC: H02M3/337
Filed: 1988-10-28
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/AU88/00419 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 14, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 14, 1990 PCT Filed Oct. 28, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/04082 PCT Pub. Date May 5, 1989.A high efficiency power conversion at high frequencies with zero voltage switching is obtained by using magnetizing current of a transformer or parallel inductance to charge the switch adjunct capacitance and other capacitance during the dead time. A transformer is prevented from being loaded during the dead time. Loading of the transformer during the dead time is prevented by directing the output inertial current to a capacitor instead of through the rectifiers to the secondary of the transformer. This can also be achieved by using synchronized rectification that provides pulse width modulated regulation on the output and ensures that the transformer secondary is separated from the inertial current of the output during the dead time. Voltage and current stresses on the switching devices and rectifiers are minimized. Zero voltage switching may be applied to inverters where the load is resistive.

Abstract: A dual-mode transmitter having an antenna, a mode controller, a source encoder, a tunable-frequency synthesizer, a chip-code generator, a spread-spectrum modulator, a narrowband modualator, a power amplifier, and an adjustable bandpass filter. Also provided is a dual-mode receiver having a mode controller, a tunable-frequency synthesizer, a chip-code generator, an antenna, an adjustable bandpass filter, a preamplifier, a frequency converter, an IF amplifier, a spread-spectrum despreader, a spread-spectrum demodulator, a narrowband modulator, and a source decoder. For the transmitter and receiver, the mode controller selects receiving a narrowband modulation or a spread-spectrum modulation. The tunable-frequency synthesizer generates a local oscillator signal for the receiver, and a carrier signal for the transmitter. The chip-code generator generates a chip code signal for both the transmitter and the receiver. With a narrowband modulation setting of the mode controller, the transmitter and receiver have the adjustable bandpass filters adjusted to a narrowband width for telephone communications. With a spread-spectrum setting of the mode controller, the adjustable bandpass filters and the system are adjusted to transmit and receive a wide bandwidth for passing the spread-spectrum signal.

Title: Improved semiconductor bridge explosive device
Inventor: WILLIS KENNETH E
IPC: F23Q13/00
Filed: 1994-02-23
Abstract: This invention discloses a method of fabricating an electroexplosive device which utilizes a semiconductor bridge (292) as an ignition element. The semiconductor bridge (292) is electrically connected to a metal header (100) by a small, low resistance contact to the extension of bridge material and through an insulating silicon substrate (270) to a eutectic bond (260) created by gold plating (350) on the metal header (100) and the silicon. The second electrode (360) of the bridge circuit is connected via wire bonds (130) to one or two conducting pins (110) which penetrate the metal header (100) and are insulated by surrounding glass (120). The design allows the use of standard semiconductor assembly methods. Since small pads of electrical material are used for electrical contact, the die size is small. A redundant connection via two conducting pins (110) insulated from the header (100) to one electrode (360) of the semiconductor bridge allows a post assembly test of the integrity of the wire bonds.
