Patent GB-2333194-A (GB)
Title: A phase detector
Inventor: POPPLEWELL Andrew
IPC: H03L7/091
Filed: 1998-01-09
Abstract: A phase detector detects 5 an error value dependent on the relative phase between a local oscillator signal 7 and an input signal 8 having a partial response characteristic. Such detectors are used in systems which recover data from noisy channels, eg magnetic data couriers having high data densities. The detector determines the difference between an ideal sample value and an actual sample value for several sampling points, and determines the sense of change to a given ideal sample value from an ideal value for a preceding sample point. It determines the sense of change to the ideal value for a preceding sampling point from an ideal sample value for a twice preceding sampling point, and utilises that information to provide the required error value. The phase detector 5 is described in detail (Fig 3).

Title: Cartons
Inventor: DAMIANO GIORGIO
IPC: B65D5/20
Filed: 1998-01-14
Abstract: A blank for producing a carton has a rectangular rear panel (1). A pair of side panels (4) are respectively connected to one pair of parallel sides (2), and top and bottom panels (5, 6) are respectively connected to the other pair of parallel sides (3) of the rear panel (1). A closure flap (12, 14) is attached to edge (10) opposite the rear panel (1) of each of the side (4), top and bottom panels (5, 6), and a generally triangular blank portion (7) connects each side panel side edge (25) to the adjacent side edge (26) of the adjoining top or bottom panel (5, 6). The side panel side edges (25) are directed at oblique angles to the first pair of parallel sides (2) so that, when folded to form a carton, the top and bottom panel (5, 6) lateral edges (25, 26) diverge away from the rear panel to enable effective stacking. The blank portions (7) fold onto the top/bottom panels (5, 6) to retain the folded shape of the carton.

Title: Purifying protein-containing liquid
Inventor: COOPER JOHN
IPC: C05F5/00
Filed: 1998-03-02
Abstract: A process for treating a protein-containing liquid so as to reduce its protein content involves applying the liquid to a composting mass and maintaining microbiological conditions therein. Preferably the liquid is the pot ale/pot ale cream residue of whisky production and the composting mass is a softwood or hardwood, eg pine oak, birch or elm. The composting mass 12 is preferably arranged in rows 10 on sloping land and is held in position by nets 16. Pot ale (cream) is then applied to the composting mass and undergoes aerobic digestion. The resultant liquid having a reduced protein content and BOD is collected on an impervious layer 14 and can then be distributed over wetlands or disposed of as sewage.

Title: Pipeline cleaning pig and method.
Inventor: ROSE MICHAEL
IPC: B08B9/045
Filed: 1998-10-22
Abstract: A pipeline cleaning pig is characterised by having first and second cleaning portions 53, 54 of which 54 is slidably mounted on the carrier 52. Each cleaning portion is comprised of three segments 58a,b and c and 60a,b, and c. The arrangement is such that when the pig is pulled in the pipe from right to left in fig.3 the segments of the two cleaning portions remain apart and debris is not collected. When the pig is moved from left to right, friction against the pie wall causes portion 54 to move towards and meet portion 53. The segments 58a,b,c and 60a,b,c are placed so as to interdigitate as shown in fig.5. Thus when moving in this direction a solid surface is presented to the debris which is collected and dragged along with the pig. Movement is effected by cables attached to towing eyes e.g. 55 and the pig may be positioned between guide members [20] - fig.1 not shown.

Title: Speech processing apparatus
Inventor: REES DAVID LLEWELLYN
IPC: G10L25/24
Filed: 1999-04-23
Abstract: An input speech signal is processed to compensate for the effects of noise. The input speech signal is divided into a plurality of sequential time frames and a set of spectral parameters are extracted for each time frame.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the unevenness of distance between electrodes in each electrode plate and ensure a stable battery capacity by closely superposing pressurizing plates having a size of covering at least the laminating directional surface of an electrode group in parallel to the electrode group within a battery can. SOLUTION: In this nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, pressurizing plates 2 having a size of covering at least the laminating directional surface of a basic electrode group 1 formed by laminating a positive electrode plate, a separator, a negative electrode plate using a carbonaceous material storing and releasing lithium ion as a negative electrode active material carrier are closely adhered in parallel to both laminating directional end surfaces of the electrode group 1. The laminated body is housed within a battery can 3 so as to be pressurized in the laminating direction by the pressurizing plates 2.  According to such a structure, even when the positive electrode plate, the negative electrode plate, and the separator constituting the basic electrode group 1 are uneven in thickness, they are pressurized with a fixed pressure by each pressurizing plate 2 to surely reduce the distance between electrodes, and the dispersion in distance between electrode can be surely minimized.
