Title: Flat cable and modular rotary anvil to make same
Inventor: KAMPS STEVE
IPC: H01B7/08
Filed: 2000-11-29
Granted: 2003-10-29
Abstract: A modular rotary anvil for an ultrasonic welding machine for producing flat cable. The anvil comprises interchangable knurled 160, protrusion 162 or cutting (172 Fig. 9b) inserts, bracket inserts 164, 166 and end segments 168, 170 allowing anvil assembly according to cable configuration desired. The cable (Fig. 7) comprises upper (120) and lower (130) insulation sandwiching intermediate parallel conductors (140) and joined by parallel welded seams between adjacent conductors (150) having a textured, e.g. knurled, surface and smooth or less rough seams (115) at the cable edge. Edge seams may comprise a textured zone adjacent a conductor and a smooth zone adjacent the edge. Texturing reduces contact area when the cable contacts itself, reducing friction and torque and the smooth edge reduces noise when used in an airbag to steering wheel clockspring.

Title: Apparatus and method of signal amplification
Inventor: RUSSELL DAVID PHILIP
IPC: H04B1/40
Filed: 2004-08-18
Granted: 2007-12-27
Abstract: There is disclosed a signal amplifier apparatus (1) with multiple signal channels (2) and a multiplicity of pre-transmission signal amplifiers (6) each one of which, when idle, is made available to and adapted for use by any of the signal channels requiring it. An allocating means (3) intermediate the signal channel sources (2) and the amplifiers (6) monitors signal amplifiers and allocates idle amplifiers to signal channels requiring amplification. Characteristics of the allocated amplifier (e.g. frequency response) are adjusted, if required, to adapt to the needs of the channel to which the amplifier is allocated. In this way, signal channels are not restricted to a single dedicated pre-transmission signal amplifier and may employ any idle one of the multiplicity of amplifiers as and when available. This adaptive sharing of a limited number of amplifiers effectively reduces the time a given signal, upon a signal transmission channel, is required to queue awaiting transmission. The apparatus is suitable for use in the HF and UHF bands.

Title: Garments
Inventor: RANCE JASON
IPC: A41D7/00
Filed: 2007-08-10
Granted: 2009-08-05
Abstract: This application describes a garment (e.g. a swim suit) having a base layer of stretchable elasticated fabric, the base layer having a torso portion that covers at least a part of the torso of a person when the garment is worn. An inner core layer of stretchable elasticated fabric is bonded to the inner surface of the base layer to extend around the abdomen and lower back regions of the garment. By providing a double layer of stretchable elasticated fabric in this manner, more compression is applied to the abdomen of the person (e.g. swimmer) wearing the suit, bringing about improvements in form drag. The additional support provided to the lower back and abdomen also improves core stability, which is of benefit in many sporting activities, including swimming.

Title: Automatic steering control for driverless vehicle
Inventor: LINDFORS OLOF HALVAR
IPC: B62D/
Filed: 1980-02-01
Granted: 1986-06-11
Abstract: The vehicle has a chassis mounted on at least three wheels with an integral drive unit and a transmission coupling the drive to at least one of the wheels. One wheel mounting for one or two of the wheels maintains the latter so that theri geometric axis extends in a given horizontal direction relative to the chassis, while a second mounting for the remaining wheels is pivoted to the chassis and allows the wheels to be positioned so that the vehicle can rotate about a vertical axis intersecting the previous geometric axis under direction of a steering control. At least one measuring wheel monitors the position of the rotational axis and contacts the ground beneath the vehicle. The measuring wheel lies in the same vertical plane as the horizontal axis and is coupled to a signal generator providing a signal representing its rate of rotation. An output signal is obtained from this representing the forwards direction and the velocity of the horizontal axis relative to the ground at a point denoting the required position of the rotational axis, the steering control used to maintain the axis in this position.

Title: Liquid container with discharge opening - has closure securable to container with movable discharge tube
IPC: F16C/
Filed: 1977-08-03
Granted: 1985-05-28
Abstract: A liquid container (19) has a closure (20) and an outlet tube (26) which extends through the discharge opening (25) of the container and is displaceable between two positions. In the first position it extends into the container and permits closure of the opening, and in the second position it extends outwardly to act as a discharge tube. The tube has an external flange (27) which, in the first position, forms a first seal around the opening and a second seal against the closure. During release of the closure the first seal is broken before the second seal so that an over-pressure in the container prior to the release does not force liquid out through the tube.
