Title: Fleece needling apparatus
Inventor: FEHRER MONIKA
IPC: D04H18/02
Filed: 2000-05-26
Granted: 2003-03-12
Abstract: The description refers to a facility for needling of fleece with a needle bar (6) taking up at least one needle board (1), which is driven to and fro via axially displaceable pushing rods (7, 8) by means of an eccentric drive (11). To facilitate a longer needle board in fleece feed direction, we suggest to fix the needle bar (1) at two rows of pushing rods (7, 8), arranged in tandem at some distance from each other in fleece feed direction and connected via a crosshead (9), and to make the eccentric drive (11) act upon the crosshead (9).
Patent GB-2369957-B (GB)
Title: Communication system,radio unit and method of performing a handover
Inventor: EMBERSON GRANT MICHAEL
IPC: H04W48/08
Filed: 2000-07-27
Granted: 2003-11-19
Abstract: A mobile station and its serving base transceiver station both have means to generate cell parameter information of a neighbouring cell to facilitate communication handover to the neighbouring cell, without the mobile station accessing or receiving information from the neighbouring cell providing said neighbouring cell parameter information. This avoids the need for background scanning of candidate neighbour cells by the mobile to determine the required synchronisation offset and operating parameters, such as the colour code (determines scrambling and frequency re-use pattern), maximum mobile transmit power or minimum receiver access level. Preferably in a shared Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) system only the colour code is required and the mobile and base station may use a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) to generate a pseudo-random sequence used to set the appropriate colour code. The generation may involve use of the neighbour cell id and location area (LA), periodically transmitted to the mobile by the serving base station. Facilitates seamless handover and reduces dropped calls or breaks in communications due to handovers.

IPC: B65G57/30
Filed: 1985-07-05
Granted: 1988-06-29
Abstract: Apparatus for collating and stacking building components, for example tiles, has pairs of conveyors with shelves for supporting edges of tiles. The tiles are fed to the shelves by a conveyor and the pairs of conveyors move upwardly in timed relation to locate tiles on the shelves. When all the shelves are full, the pairs of conveyors move downwards and apart to deposit the tiles in a stack on to a support. The timing of this avoids shock loads on the tiles. The stack of components is then banded and removed from the apparatus.

Title: Processor for multiple continuous spread spectrum signals - has contents of taped delay line compared in parallel fashion, with output of code storage register
IPC: H04J/
Filed: 1979-03-15
Granted: 1989-05-17
Abstract: The signal processor accepts the linear sum of several continuous (CW) direct sequence, spread spectrum signals, and outputs a sequence of narrow pulses, each of which contains all the available energy of one of the input signals. The CW signals are applied to the input of a tapped delay line, the contents of which are compared, in a parallel fashion, with the output of a code storage register. When correlation has been achieved, a narrow pulse is produced which contains all the available energy of one of the input signals. The circuit reduces the problem of continuously processing several simultaneous signals, conventionally performed with dedicated circuitry for each signal, to a sequential pulse processing operation, effectively time-sharing the same single set of circuitry.
