Abstract: A nonaqueous battery which comprises unit battery layers in a battery jar, each unit battery layer composed of a positive electrode plate having a positive electrode active material only on one side of a collector foil, a negative electrode plate having a negative electrode active material only on one side of a collector foil and a separator, and in which a surface of the positive electrode plate having thereon the positive electrode active material and a surface of the negative electrode plate having thereon the negative electrode active material face each other through the separator, and a surface of the positive electrode plate not having thereon the positive electrode active material and a surface of the negative electrode plate not having thereon the negative electrode active material face each other through an insulating film. According to the invention, safety of the battery is ensured since rapid temperature rise is suppressed inside even in the event of abnormal heating from outside, crushing of the battery in a direction of lamination, or short circuit between the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode due to nailing and the like.

Title: Method and apparatus for determining a zone in an object exhibiting a highest level of structural organization
Inventor: OSTROVSKY EMIL Y
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 1996-02-06
Granted: 2002-04-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus utilizes either a targetless approach or a target oriented approach to determine "attractors" in data fields of a physical property or set of physical properties of an object. A processing system implements the method which begins by first inputting a data field of a physical property or data fields of a set of physical properties of the object. Second, the processing system arranges the data of the data field or the data of each data field into a matrix. Third, the processing system transforms the data within the matrix or matrices to develop transformation matrices. Fourth, the processing system develops a base dichotomy matrix from each transformation matrix. Fifth, the processing system develops a full description set of matrices from the base dichotomy matrices. Sixth, in the targetless approach, the processing system selects the roots of the full description set of matrices and organizes the roots into sequences to provide a representation of a zone within the object exhibiting a highest level of structural organization, or, alternatively in the target oriented approach, the processing system selects the branches to provide a representation of a zone within the object exhibiting a highest level of structural similarity to a target zone within the object of the full description set of matrices. Finally, the processing system displays either the roots in sequences or the branches.

Title: Borehole surveying
Inventor: KERRIDGE DAVID JOHN
IPC: E21B47/022
Filed: 1996-09-10
Granted: 2003-12-16
Abstract: A borehole survey is conducted at a drilling site (S) by a so-called Interpolated In-Field Referencing (IIFR) method in which: (a) absolute local geomagnetic field data is obtained by spot measurement of the earth's magnetic field at a local measurement site (R) which is sufficiently close to the drilling site (S) that the measurement data is indicative of the earth's magnetic field at the drilling site (S) but which is sufficiently remote from the drilling site (S) that the measurement data is unaffected by magnetic interference from the drilling site and other man-made installations; (b) time-varying geomagnetic field data is obtained by combining the absolute local geomagnetic field data with data indicative of variation of the geomagnetic field with respect to time obtained by monitoring variation of the earth's magnetic field with respect to time at a remote monitoring site (P1, P2); (c) downhole magnetic field data is obtained by monitoring by means of a surveying instrument the magnetic field in the vicinity of the borehole at a series of locations along the borehole; and (d) the orientation of the borehole is determined from the downhole magnetic field data and the time-varying geomagnetic field data. Such a survey method takes into account short-term variations in the geomagnetic field caused by electrical currents in the ionosphere and is therefore more accurate than known survey methods.

Title: Means for and methods of real time detection of fraud, lack of credit, and the like, in the ss#7 system network
Inventor: KARRAS ERNEST
IPC: H04M3/22
Filed: 1998-06-18
Granted: 2002-04-23
Abstract: Service observing equipment monitors, detects, decodes correlates and generates Call Records and Report Summaries from digital and audio information on an individual call basis on either ANSI or CCITT Signaling System #7 systems controlled by data packets transmitted along high speed data links separated from the telecommunication audio channels. The equipment simultaneously responds to in-band signals such as Automatic Number Identification (ANI) digits and/or Customer Entered digits transmitted over the audio channels. A Call's decoded content is stored as correlated data until the end of a monitored call. Then the stored data is custom formatted into a Call Record and transmitted or printed out to enable study of how trouble free the telecommunication network is performing, detect fraud or credit violations and/or validate billing situations. An integral ZIP System simultaneously monitors the stored call data and is ready at all times during the call to generate interim ZIP Records to let the telephone system or recipient take corrective action while a call is in progress. Examples of such corrective actions are to trace the switching route and troubleshoot defective call setups before termination, to trap on Hot number, long-duration and/or duplicate credit card calls to prematurely terminate service and prevent fraud, to trace annoyance or malicious call and tape conversations, to eliminate abuse of pre-paid billing credit and the like.

Abstract: The invention concerns an antenna for receiving and/or transmitting signals with rectilinear polarisation comprising at least a first radiating element (24, 26) with circular polarisation in one direction and at least a second radiating element (28, 30) with circular polarisation in the other direction. The signals, of substantially equal amplitude, supplied by the radiating elements with circular polarisation in opposite directions are combined to supply a signal with rectilinear polarisation. The direction of this rectilinear polarisation depends on the phase constant ( DELTA  phi ) between the combined signals. A phase-shifter (32) adjusts the direction of the antenna polarisation. The adjustment can be computer-assisted.
