Patent AU-4581900-A (AU)
Title: Shredding machine, and method of providing a time delay in shredding machine
Inventor: NORCOTT STUART LESLIE
IPC: B02C18/00
Filed: 2000-04-17
Abstract: A shredding machine comprises a housing, a shredding mechanism, a motor for operation of the shredding mechanism, a slot through which documentary material is fed for shredding by the mechanism, and an operating member movable from an operative position in which it extends across the slot, to an inoperative position retracted from the slot, in consequence of the feeding of the material into the slot, and returning, in the absence of the material in the slot, to its operative position under the action of a spring. A motor controller includes a microswitch having a plunger which is spring-urged into a projecting position, in which it is open circuit. The spring urges the operating member into its operative position. Thus, when material enters the slot, moving the operating member to its inoperative position, the plunger is depressed to start or permit operation of the shredding mechanism. A damper is interposed between the operating member and the resilient device, and includes a shallow cylindrical chamber within which a cylindrical drive member is mounted for rotary movement, such a movement being retarded by viscous material within the chamber. The drive member is connected to a drive arm, one end of which engages the operating member, the other end of which engages the plunger of the microswitch. Thus, on completion of passage of the material through the slot, releasing the operating member for movement to its operative position, the movement of the operating member to its operative position is retarded, allowing completion of passage of the sheet.

Title: Pressure controlled pad
Inventor: BARBER DAVID GILLMAN
IPC: A47C27/08
Filed: 1999-07-29
Abstract: An inflatable seating pad (10) consists of a hand operated pump (12) integrated within the top surface to inflate the pad with air. The pad (10) has a shut-off connector (6) at one corner which locates and is connected to a pressure relief valve (8). In use, the pad (10) is inflated by pushing upon the hand operated pump (12) to over inflate the pad. The shut-off connector (6) maintains the pressure in the pad (10). To set the pressure to a desired pressure the user actuates the pressure relief valve (pre-set to optimum pressure) to operate the shut-off connector (6) to allow air to exhaust through the pressure relief valve.

Title: Method for wireless information transfer
Inventor: KOSLAR MANFRED
IPC: H04B1/69
Filed: 1997-11-03
Abstract: the method involves modulating a signal input and passing the signal via a transmission channel to a receiver (11-15). A transmitter generates angle modulated pulses carrying the information and with a frequency spectrum. The pulses are compressed in the receiver using a filter (13) with a frequency dependent differential transition time and group transmission time to produce pulses of reduced duration and increased amplitude. At least a part of the information is used to modulate the pulses in the transmitter using a different modulation and to control a parameter of the angle modulation which can be detected in the receiver.
