Abstract: An aerosol dispenser which comprises of a body including a mouthpiece for inhalation of a substance. The substance is stored in a container, which has a depressable outlet, in a pressurised gaseous or liquid form. The outlet tube releases the dose when depressed towards the container. The depression acts on a depression spring; this is resisted by a pneumatic actuator when an actuator chamber is closed. On compression of the string the dispenser is cocked; when it is compressed for cocking there are means for the air to escape from the chamber. There is an opening into the chamber-this is controlled by a breath actuable valve. This comprises a valve inlet; a valve outlet that is connected to the port; these are connected by a flexible tube which can be in two positions-in the closed position it is kinked and in the open position it is un-kinked. There is a movable member (movably mounted in the body), that is connected to the valve inlet, which moves the tube to control the kinking of the tube. When the movable member is in its rest position the tube is kinked and when the movable member is moved towards the orifice on inhalation the tube is unkinked-this allows air to enter the chamber, the spring acts and releases the dose in the container. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This pertains to the general field of gels, foams, and aerogels, particularly, to low density open cell organic foams and low density open cell carbon foams, and methods for preparing them. These low density open cell organic foams are derived from organic gels which may be prepared from hydroxylated benzenes (such as phenol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, and phloroglucinol) and aldehydes (such as formaldehyde and furfural) using lower than conventional catalyst concentrations (e.g, an R/C value of greater than about 1000, yielding an initial room temperature pH typically lower than about 6.0). These organic foams are characterized by relatively large particle and pore sizes, high porosity, and high surface area. Low density open cell carbon foams derived from such organic foams are also shown, as are methods for preparing same. These carbon foams are also characterized by relatively large particle and pore sizes, high porosity, high surface area, and high electrical capacitance. Low density open cell carbon foam/carbon substrate composites and methods for preparing them are also shown.

Abstract: A system and computer-implemented conflict resolution method for resolving air traffic conflicts involving a plurality of aircraft. The system may comprise an air traffic control system having a computer that implements a conflict resolution method, and a radar coupled to the traffic control system that provides position and velocity information for each aircraft. A communication subnetwork is used to communicate between aircraft and the traffic control system. Each aircraft may have a computer that implements the conflict resolution method, and a data link for transferring position and velocity information between the aircraft and the traffic control system over the communication subnetwork. Thus, either the aircraft, or the air traffic control system, or both implement the present method. The conflict resolution method in each aircraft and traffic control system cooperate to process position and velocity information relating to each aircraft to generate a series of conflict-free maneuvers for each aircraft that optimize the flight path of each respective aircraft toward their respective destinations while eliminating or minimizing the possibility of interference between the aircraft.

Abstract: A fire and smoke detector utilizes a statistical analysis of the near infrared radiation incident on it. The spectral radiation intensities incident on the fire detector are continuously measured at two near-infrared wavelengths, and a time series of apparent source temperatures is obtained from these measurements. The power spectral density and the probability density function of the apparent source temperatures are sufficient to determine the presence of a fire in the vicinity of the detector. The detector can indicate the presence of a fire in an adjoining room from the radiation which is incident on it due to reflections from common building materials. The present invention relates to fire and/or smoke detection methodology and associated apparatus. The detector utilizes fiber optic as a viewing and absorption/scattering detection means.
