Title: Optical triangulation measuring apparatus
Inventor: BECKMANN LEO HEINRICH JOSEF FR
IPC: G01B11/24
Filed: 1984-06-20
Granted: 1988-03-17
Abstract: An apparatus for the rapid and accurate dimensional inspection of an object. In particular, the apparatus is adapted for the acquisition of object range data. The apparatus includes a source for emitting a slender beam of radiation, first beam guide means (2) for causing the beam to impinge on a desired spot P of the object under inspection, second beam guide means (4,5) for causing radiation reflected from the spot of impingement on a linear radiation-sensitive detector (6,7)A preferred embodiment includes third beam guide means for causing radiation reflected from the spot of impingement to traverse a further path also leading to the detector.The second and third beam guide means are structurally different from each other in such a manner that one and the same object spot irradiated by the beam portion is imaged on the detector as two separate, focussed spots spaced a fixed distance from each other. Thereby a reliable discrimination can be made between true and false reflections from the object under inspection.

Granted: 2001-09-20
Abstract: A skin-protective device and a method for protecting skin against abrasion by attaching a pair of mutually overlying membranous layers to an area of a person's skin with only the peripheries of the layers interconnected with each other, so that the layers can slip along each other. An absorbent pad may be placed between one of the layers and the skin, and a quantity of a lubricant can be contained between the layers. The device is thin, to avoid causing pressure when it is used in restricted spaces, as within one's shoe.

Title: Remote smart filtering communication management system
Inventor: NILAKANTAN CHANDRASEKHARAN
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 1995-10-12
Granted: 1998-09-17
Abstract: Network traffic from a central device across a communication link to a remote device is controlled based upon central traffic management resources in the central device. The central traffic management resources are coupled to a communication link and monitor data packets received across the communication link to learn characteristics of the remote network. Based on the learned characteristics, traffic management messages are generated in the central traffic management resources. These messages are forwarded to an interface device on the remote network, where traffic on the communication link is controlled in response to the traffic management messages. Thus, the remote interface is configured automatically by central traffic management resources running in the central device without human intervention at the remote network. The traffic management messages manage traffic across a communication link of two types. First, traffic management messages identify types of packets to be forwarded from the remote interface across the communication link. Second, traffic management messages identify types of packets to be composed by the remote interface for communication to users of the remote network. Thus, packages originating on the remote network are filtered so that only necessary packets are forwarded to the central site. Similarly, packets which normally originate from the central site are "spoofed" at the remote site in response to management messages generated at the central site. The central traffic management resources execute a transport protocol for the traffic management messages which are independent of a network address for the remote interface.

Abstract: In the area of rail fastenings in track installations, modifications to soleplates are required. The rail fastenings in this case are arranged on sleepers or corresponding track-retaining elements and have at least one soleplate (8), e.g. a ribbed plate, e.g. only a cushion (23, 28) without ribbed plate (8), which is seated on the sleeper surface or the like and is connected to the latter by coach screws or the like. To obtain a position of the railway rail (1) which is secure against tilting, the rail foot-supporting region (12) of the soleplate (8) or of the cushion (23, 28) is provided, merely in two width portions (13) and (14) extending strip-like and each assigned to the two longitudinal edge zones of the rail foot (2), with flat supporting surfaces (15) and (16), whereas the width portion (17) situated therebetween is provided with a shaped surface (18) set back with respect to their common plane. Even if the supporting surface of the rail foot (2) of the railway rail (1) does not coincide exactly with a preset standard plane, but has a contour projecting convexly beyond the latter, a position of the railway rail (1) which is secured against tilting on the soleplate (8) or the cushions (23, 28) is ensured by these measures. <IMAGE>

Title: Cardiac recovery
Inventor: MILSOM FREDERICK PAGET
IPC: A61M39/22
Filed: 1997-11-04
Granted: 2000-08-17
Abstract: The apparatus includes a flow control conduit (2) connectable with an output portion of the heart, preferably a bypassed portion of the aorta, and includes a means of feeding heart fluid (R/O), for example blood or cardioplegia into the heart. The flow control device (1) includes in communication a variable resistance pressure control means (4) which is variably biased to a closed position to maintain on the bypassed heart region a predetermined level of pressure, to facilitate the creation of back pressure during filling of the bypassed heart region or a beat or pumping phase of the heart, and when the heart fluid pressure increases to reach a predetermined threshold, the pressure control means facilitates a release of fluid from the conduit, thus facilitating expulsion of potential emboli from the bypassed heart region, and enabling "cycling" of the heart while in a bypassed condition, prior to the bypassed region being taken off bypass. The invention includes preferred and alternative embodiments of variable resistance pressure control means including a hollow deformable bladder (16) biased by a compressible control fluid externally of said bladder.

Title: Process for bleaching of lignocellulose-containing pulp
Inventor: LINSTEN MAGNUS
IPC: D21C9/16
Filed: 1993-11-25
Granted: 1996-08-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for bleaching of lignocellulose-containing pulp, where the pulp is first treated with a complexing agent, then delignified with an organic peracid or a salt thereof, and subsequently bleached with a peroxide-containing compound, ozone or sodium dithionite. Before bleaching, the pulp is washed at a pH of at least about 4. Suitably, delignification is performed with the strongly oxidizing peracetic acid, so that a considerable increase in brightness as well as a considerable reduction of the kappa number are obtained after said bleaching. The brightness-increasing effect is very selective, i.e. the viscosity of the pulp is maintained to a relatively great extent. By a suitable choice of pH in all the stages before the chlorine-free bleaching, the advantageous metal ions are retained in the pulp, while at the same time the pH adjustment between the stages is minimized and the resulting spent bleach liquors are advantageously used internally, e.g. for washing the pulp.
