Title: Method and apparatus for carton sterilization
Inventor: CARLSON LEONARD A
IPC: B65B55/04
Filed: 1993-11-02
Abstract: A method and apparatus for sterilizing preformed cartons (4) prior to filling is disclosed. The interior of the cartons are first sprayed with a solution of hydrogen peroxide (10). The cartons are then treated with heated air (12) to remove the hydrogen peroxide. The heated air is applied by means of a hollow mandrel (22) having nozzles (38, 40) at one end. The mandrel corresponds generally to the shape of the carton. When the mandrel is inserted in the carton, air is directed against the interior side walls and bottom of the carton, and is exhausted from the carton by flowing upwardly between the side walls (30, 34) of the mandrel and the side walls of the carton.

Abstract: A method is disclosed herein for tuning a responder unit (12). The method comprises the steps of storing energy in a responder unit energy accumulator (136) in a contactless fashion by RF energy transmitted from the interrogator unit (10) to the responder unit (12), and exciting within the responder unit (12) an RF carrier wave. The method further comprises the steps of transmitting the RF carrier wave in a first response from the responder unit (12) to the interrogator unit (10) and measuring within the interrogator unit (10) the received signal strength of the RF carrier wave of the first response. In further accordance with the invention tuning data may be transmitted to the responder unit (12) by sending at least one RF programming sequence from the interrogator unit (10) to the responder unit (12). The responder unit (12) upon receiving the RF programming sequence from the interrogator unit (10) would preferably modify an internally stored frequency setting within a memory (244) of the responder unit (12) in response to the first set of data. Other devices, systems and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Human or animal tissue contaminants, such as cancer cells or viruses, are selectively removed from tissues by staining them with chromophores or similar energy transferring compounds and irradiating the stained elements with uniform laser light in a wavelength that is absorbed by the chromophore but is not significantly absorbed by surrounding health tissue; the energy released as heat by the chromophore to the contaminant is sufficient to irreversibly damage the contaminant.

Abstract: In order to process a program by parallel processing using a plurality of processors, the program is divided (34) into a plurality of partial programs. Then one or more expressions are devided (38), the or each expression expressing a relationship between the partial programs, such as which can be executed independently and which require the execution of another partial program. The expression or expressions can then be investigated (37) to determine which has a desired characteristic, such as a characteristic corresponding to uniform loading of the processors. The expression can also be varied, to give more options for the selection of the expression with the desired characteristic. Then the partial programs can be distributed (14,15) to the processors on the basis of the relationship corresponding to the expression which has the desired characteristic. Furthermore, when the partial programs are being executed by the processors, any processor which has completed its processing broadcasts a signal to the other processors, which may then re-assign one or more of their partial programs. In this way, parallel processing can be carried out quickly, with substantially uniform loading of the processors.

Abstract: A packet communications system provides for point-to-point packet routing and broadcast packet routing to limited subsets of nodes in the network, using a routing field in the packet header which is processed according to two different protocols. A third protocol is provided in which a packet can be broadcast to the limited subset even when launched from a node which is not a member of the subset. The routing field includes a first portion which contains the route labels necessary to deliver the packet to the broadcast subset. A second portion of the routing field contains the broadcast subset identifier which can then be used to deliver the packet to all of the members of the broadcast subset. Provision is made to backtrack deliver the packet to the last node identified before the broadcast subset if that last node is itself a member of the subset.

Abstract: The invention relates to a minute structure for showing an interference color having a certain wavelength within a visible light region, by reflection and interference of a natural light incident on the minute structure. The minute structure has: a laminated portion including a plurality of first layers having a first refractive index and a plurality of second layers having a second refractive index different from the first refractive index; and a stray-light absorbing member. The first and second layers are alternately placed on top of each other. The stray light has wavelengths other than the certain wavelength and is formed by transmittance of the natural light through the laminated portion, reflectance of the natural light by the laminated portion and/or scattering of the natural light by the laminated portion. The invention further relates to a fabric for showing the interference color. The fabric includes: a first thread which is one of a warp and a weft; and a second thread which is the other of the warp and the weft. The first and second threads are woven to form the fabric. The first thread is made of a material containing the laminated portion. The second thread is made of a material containing the stray-light absorbing member. By the provision of the stray-light absorbing member, the interference color becomes brighter and deeper and higher in value.

Abstract: An electro-optical scanning device reads indicia having parts of different light reflectivity, including bar codes and matrix arrays such as UPSCODES. The scanning device includes laser or light emitting diodes for emitting at least two light beams of the same or different wavelengths. The light beams may be visible to the human eye, and the beams are optically directed to form one or two scan lines to scan portions of a symbol. Dual photosensor(s) or a charge coupled device detects light reflected from the different portions of the symbol. The charge coupled device can be used to detect either reflected ambient light or the reflected visible light from the beams emitted by the diodes. The photosensors generate signals corresponding to the detected light which can be processed simultaneously. The device is particularly useful in reading two dimensional or more complex symbols. Methods for reading indicia are also described.
