Abstract: The ostomy pouch 10 has a coupling or securement member formed as a washer-shaped wafer 32 of adhesive material, preferably a hydrocolloid. The pouch 10 is secured directly onto the abdominal wall 13 with the adhesive wafer aligned with the stoma 50. Flushability of the pouch is enhanced by forming the pouch with converging side walls within an optimum angular range and a predetermined pouch width and pouch height. The pouch also has a predetermined wall thickness and the wafer is of predetermined thickness. Thus when the pouch is deposited in a water-saver toilet, bottom end first in a carrier sleeve or bag, the pouch can flow in streamlined fashion through the passages of a toilet and any sewer pipe or septic line connected to the toilet. If the flush capacity of the toilet and the flow rate of water through the toilet and sewer line are increased, the ostomy pouch can be deposited in the toilet without a carrier sleeve or bag. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1999-01-13
Abstract: A speech signal is transmitted over a radio path by a mobile station, and is received in a first base station. The speech signal, encoded using encoding parameters, is forwarded in the information frames from the first base station to a remotely located speech decoder. Each of the information frames carries a synchronization word and a synchronization check bit recurring at predetermined intervals within the information frame. The information frames are received at the remote speech decoder. The remote speech decoder is synchronized with one of the received information frames using the synchronizing word. Speech encoding parameters are extracted from the received information frames, and the recurring synchronization check bit is monitored within the received information in order to detect an error in the recurring synchronization check bit in the received information frames.

Abstract: An integrated processor is fabricated on a single monolithic circuit and employs circuitry to accommodate data-intensive, view-intensive and voice-intensive requirements of modern-day PIDs. The integrated processor includes a CPU core, a memory controller, and a variety of peripheral devices to achieve versatility and high performance functionality. The integrated processor consumes less power by provision of a clock control unit including a plurality of phase-locked loops for generating clock signals of differing frequencies to appropriately clock the various subsystems of the integrated processor. The clock signals provided to the various subsystems by the clock control unit are derived from a single crystal oscillator input signal. A power management unit is incorporated within the integrated processor to control the frequency and/or application of certain clock signals to the various subsystems, as well as to control other power management related functions. The pin-count of the integrated processor is finally minimized by allowing the selective multiplexing of certain external pins depending upon the desired functionality of the integrated processor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Automatic thickness profiling for use in blown film and other extrusion lines. The automatic system is integrated into an air cooling ring device either external and/or internal to the bubble or extrusion. It comprises one or more high resolution circumferentially variable annular air outlets which act to cool the molten resin in a circumferentially variable way. Thin slide plates remain fixed in place except when adjusted to open or close the local annular air outlet by the action of at least one scanning actuator. The actuator is positioned by control signals generated by a control computer which calculates the appropriate local dimension of the variable air outlet in response to circumferential position correlated with thickness variations detected by a film thickness sensor. The film thickness above the frost line is mechanically scanned around the extrusion. In the case of making blown products with internal cooling, counteracting adjustments are made as local flow areas of the internal cooling device are changed to maintain constant the entrapped air volume. The novel actuation system is also shown to be useful in locally adjusting a finely segmented air lip. A method of correlating thickness changes with respective cooling zones is also disclosed.
