Title: Hydration process of nitrile compound
Inventor: ASANO SHIRO
IPC: C07D213/82
Filed: 1985-09-10
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for the hydration of a nitrile compound. Owing to the use of a Raney copper catalyst having an iron content of 0.7 wt. % or less based on the copper component in a suspended state, the process allows the catalyst to retain high activity and facilitates the separation of the catalyst and liquid reaction mixture by sedimentalion and/or filtration. In an example, a catalyst with 0.1 iron achieved 67% conversion of acrylonitrile to acrylamide, whereas a catalyst with 1.56% iron achieved only 40%.

Title: Improvements in and relating to cutting wirecloth to length
Inventor: HUGHES ANDREW
IPC: B26D7/08
Filed: 2003-03-12
Granted: 2004-07-28
Abstract: A method of cutting an elongate strip of wirecloth to a given length and finish the ends so as to maintain the integrity of the weave at both ends. One end of a rolled up oversize length of woven wirecloth is clamped, and the wirecloth is unrolled over a flat surface, and the far end is clamped. The unrolled length is tensioned by moving one clamp relative to the other, so as to flatten the wirecloth between the clamped ends. Parallel sided bars are positioned across the wirecloth and clamped in place adjacent the two clamped ends so that the desired final length of the strip is defined by the distance measured from the outer face of one to the outer face of the other of the two bars. The wirecloth is marked with two pairs of parallel lines using the parallel inner and outer faces of the two bars as straight edges. The bars are removed and the warp and weft wires of the cloth between each pair of parallel lines are bound together to form a solid seam to lock the weave in place between the two seams, and the wirecloth is cut along the outer of each of the pairs of lines corresponding to the outer edges of the two seams to produce the desired length of cloth. The clamping means 12 at one end is fixed and that at the opposite end is movable, towards and away from the fixed clamping means, by a pneumatic air cylinder 46. Binding the warp and weft wires to form the seams is performed by soldering or welding (preferably by electric resistance welding) or by an adhesive, between each pair of parallel lines. Further embodiments include the use of programmable computer based process control systems, and a means for suitably illuminating the surface of the cloth to permit visual inspection.

Title: Temporarily restricting migration of small animals for example onto a worksite
Inventor: JENMAN KEITH
IPC: A01M29/30
Filed: 2003-11-12
Granted: 2004-08-25
Abstract: A method and barrier are disclosed for restricting migration of small animals onto, for example, a workplace. The method comprises the steps of: cutting a trench in the ground; setting a rigid or semi-rigid panel (14) in the trench so that the panel projects upwards above the level of the ground; and providing at least two members (18) which abut the opposite faces of the panel to locate the panel therebetween and at least one of which is driven into the ground on one side of the panel so that the members restrict sideways movement of the panel. Because a panel is used that is rigid or semi-rigid, it does not need to be held in tension, and for that reason it does not need to be positively attached to the members with nails, staples or the like. Also, because the panel is located between the members to restrict sideways movement of the panel, for that reason also it does not need to be positively attached to the members with nails, staples or the like. Because the panel is rigid or semi-rigid, it can be more readily fabricated so that it can be drawn out of the ground once the it is no longer required. <IMAGE>

Title: Communication data analysis system
Inventor: PULLEN SHAUN KEVIN
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2004-12-20
Granted: 2006-07-12
Abstract: In a highly structured communication system for use in tactical military data links such as Link 11, defined by a NATO Standardization Agreement (STANAG), messages containing information such as identifiers of the type of vehicle or participating unit and their speed, bearing or altitude are decoded and analysed using a toolkit which reduces the need for manual live testing and assessment by a human operator. The toolkit checks both a message level (52) which identifies the type of data and in the 48-bit frame, and the field level (54) which relates to the data values themselves via a STANAG database (56) and an Implan (Message Implementation Plan) database (58), and issues an alert (66) if the data does not comply with the predetermined standard or protocol. The databases list all possible messages (eg. a finite number of different vehicles or units) and the particular data values associated therewith (eg. finite, discrete values of altitude for messages from aircraft), and so eg. an hour value of greater than 24 or a ship having an altitude value would display an alert. The first 4 bits of each message (bits 00-03 in fig. 2) are the message number (MN) which dictates how the other 44 bits should be decoded, and filters (80-92, Fig. 5) can ensure that only a subset of messages are analysed.

Abstract: The invention concerns digital communications apparatus for receiving a plurality of parallel digital input signals (IN1 ... IN16) all at one rate, and for interleaving multiple bit sequences of a predetermined length from each of the input data streams into a single data stream at a higher rate. The apparatus comprises a plurality of first stage blocks (BIC1) each adapted to receive a plurality of the input data streams and to output a similar number of data streams at the same bit rate but with the bits of the incoming data signals interchanged. The first stage blocks are connected to a plurality of second stage blocks (BIC2) each connected to said first stage blocks (BIC1) in such a manner that each secondary stage block is connected to a first stage block by a single data stream so that the secondary stage blocks (BIC2) interchange the bits of the already bit-interchanged input signal to generate a plurality of digital output data streams. Depending on the number of input signals to be interleaved the second stage blocks may be similarly connected to third stage blocks, and so on. Finally the apparatus comprises means (IL) for interleaving the output data streams from the second or final stage blocks to produce said higher rate output data stream.
