Patent GB-2464827-A (GB)
Title: Utilisation of an operating environment separately from its host information handling system
Inventor: SULTENFUSS ANDREW T
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2009-10-28
Abstract: In information handling system 100, an operating state controllable by state controller 108, configured to enable a plurality of operating environments, is detected. The plurality of operating environments includes a host environment 114 and a reduced power environment 102. An event is detected that can alter the operating state to enable one of the plurality of operating environments, which enabled operating environment may be the reduced power environment. The enabled operating environment can be used separately from a host system operable to enable the host environment. Operating state routines of a processing module (PM) or host system may be enabled or disabled in response to the detection of events. For example, a PM power on state routine may be enabled in response to the detection of a PM power on event; a power button or keyboard event, say. In an embodiment, a low power environment is enabled within a laptop or notebook computer to receive and manipulate email-type messages, perhaps destined for a mobile phone, using limited resources of the host system.

Abstract: 599,265. Saw-tooth generating circuits. SPERRY GYROSCOPE CO., Inc. April 24, 1945, No. 10338. Convention date, April 24, 1944. [Class 40 (v)] In a saw-tooth generator, a valve under the control of an input square-wave charges a capacitor, and during discharge when the potential across the capacitor reaches a predetermined value the discharge is terminated by a second valve. During intervals t1, t2 of input waveform 32, valve section 12 conducts to charge capacitor 18 quickly and maintain valve section 13 cut-off, but section 12 is also cut-off during intervals t2, t3 and capacitor 18 begins to discharge through resistor 21. The cathode potential falls until biassed valve section 13 conducts and stabilises the cathode potential until section 12 conducts again at instant t3 to recharge the capacitor and repeat the cycle. The limited discharge of capacitor 18 is substantially linear with amplitude determined by network 26, 27 and slope determined by the time constant of network 21, 18. The output may be taken directly from terminals 28 or fed through amplifier-converter 29 to oscilloscope 31.

Title: Improvements in or relating to sewing machines
IPC: D05B47/00
Filed: 1946-04-05
Abstract: 610,430. Sewing - machines. BRITISH UNITED SHOE MACHINERY CO., Ltd. (United Shoe Machinery Corporation). April 5, 1946, No. 10514. [Class 112] Thread-tensioning devices; chain-stitching by barbed needles.-The invention relates to the tension device of a hookedneedle chain-stitch shoe-inseam sewing- machine of the kind forming the subject of Specifications 17,329/08, [Class 112], and 524,148, in which a take-up sets the stitch with a tension closely approaching the breaking load of the thread; the tension device comprises a wheel round which the thread passes, its rotation being resisted by a brake, usually with a felt lining, and the invention consists in introducing' a friction-modulating substance between the brake surfaces to prevent the increase in thread tension which would otherwise occur with increasing speed of operation. The pressure on the brake elements is adjustable and is varied by a speed-controlled device and, in each stitch cycle, by a cam. In the arrangement shown, the spindle 36 of the thread-wheel 24 (placed at the back of the machine) carries a brake-drum 38 engaged by a felt-lined shoe 40 pivoted at 43 to a lever 44. In order to keep the frictional effect constant for a given applied pressure, independent of the speed of the machine, the brake-drum is placed in a reservoir 100 containing lubricating oil which it carries up to create a film between the shoe 40 and the drum. The lever 44 is fulcrummed at 46 and pressure is applied to it by adjustable abutments 50 on a pair of levers 56 lying side by side and fulcrummed at 58; the levers 56 are loaded by a rod 60 bearing on a cross-member 64 pivoted to one lever and resting on the other to distribute the load, the rod 60 being urged downwardly by a spring 65 which bears against an arm 68 controlled by a speed-responsive device 74, the arrangement being such that the pressure of the spring is reduced when the speed of the machine increases in order to compensate for the increased effect of inertia of the thread-wheel and brakedrum (the stitch-setting taking place during the initial movement of the threadwheel from rest in each cycle). The thread tension is reduced at other times in the stitch cycle by a cam-actuated lever 86 acting on a short lever 80 which bears against the underside of one of the levers 56. Specification 28,740/09, [Class 112], also is referred to.

A leg harness or artificial leg with a lockable knee joint comprises a thigh portion 1 pivotally connected at 11 to a shank portion 4 via a plate 10 rigidly connected to the shank. A lever 12' with a shaped end portion 12, which fits over the nose of plate 10 to lock the knee joint, is attached pivotally to the thigh portion at 13 and is urged into the locking position by resilient means 14 attached to the thigh portion. Also attached to the lever 12' is a connection with the foot plate 9, comprising a cord 15, the length of which is adjustable by a shroud screw 16, and a rod 17 which passes through a guide 18, on which is mounted a pressure spring 20, which provides a force preventing the foot portion 8, 9 from "dropping" 'by swinging about the pivot 7. When the leg is straight, the knee joint is locked, but when it swings rearwardly and the foot rests on the ground, the joint will be freed by the pull of the connection 15, 16, 17 on the lever 12', allowing the knee to be bent. On making a forward movement, the knee remains bent, due to the tension of the member 14, until the inertia of the shank and foot overcomes this tension and the joint is again locked until the foot is bent upwards, e.g. on contacting the ground.
