Abstract: An arc discharge lamp having an end-of-life structure and including a light-transmissive envelope having a tubular-shaped main body and a press seal disposed at each end of the main body. An electrode filament having a pair of ends is located in each end of the envelope. Each electrode filament end is in a contiguous relationship with an inside surface of the lamp envelope. When one of the electrode filaments is depleted of electron-emissive material, increased heating of the electrode filament caused by an increase in cathode fall voltage, produces a localized hot spot on the internal surface of the envelope. This localized heating causes a puncture in the lamp envelope and evacuation of the lamp. The introduction of external atmosphere into the lamp extinguishes the arc discharge and renders the lamp inoperable.

Abstract: A catalytic converter (10) has a metallic monolith (15) that is mounted in a canister (12) by a heat-insulating mat (16) of melt-formed refractory ceramic fibers that have been annealed to provide a Resiliency Value of at least 10 kPa. Previously known melt-blown fibers used in such mats were thought to require a fine-grained crystalline structure to have a higher resiliency value. However, a mat in accordance with the invention having a Resiliency Value of at least 10 does not take a compression set that would allow the monolith to become loose, is made from ceramic fibers which are preferably melt-formed from a mixture of about equal parts by weight of Al₂O₃ and SiO₂. After being annealed, the ceramic fibers can have a fine-grained crystalline structure, but significant energy savings can be realized by reducing the annealing temperatures and times such that the fibers have an amorphous structure while still attaining excellent Resiliency Values.

Abstract: An optical transmission device, which is used for a short range optical data link or an optical communication system for subscribers and more particularly requires no automatic optical power control, minimizes the turn-on delay time of a laser diode and allows unformatted optical signal transmission by a fixed level decision receiving system. By applying to the laser diode a fixed-bias electric current which is no greater than the electric threshold current value of the laser diode, the turn-on delay time of the laser diode can be minimized, and the extinction level can be lowered. Thus, a fixed level decision receiving system can be used, and the optical receiver circuit can be simplified.

Abstract: A system and method for increasing the rate of data transfer from a host computer to a peripheral such as a printer without the need for special hardware within the host computer or a special interface cable coupling the host computer to the peripheral. Data is transferred from the host computer to the peripheral in 4 Kbyte bursts. Handshaking occurs between the host computer and the peripheral only between bursts. Bytes of peripheral data are apportioned into multiple bytes of data within the host computer. The multiple bytes are transmitted from the host computer to the peripheral, each transmitted byte containing a data clock and several bits of peripheral data. In one embodiment, the peripheral data byte is apportioned into two bytes within the host computer with each byte having a pair of clock signals transmitted along with the peripheral data portion. In another embodiment, three bytes of peripheral data are apportioned into four bytes within the host computer with each byte having a single clock signal transmitted along with the peripheral data portion. Within the peripheral, a clock circuit detects the clock signal from each transmitted byte and generates a delayed signal to latch peripheral data bytes into a storage register. In addition, the first transmitted byte contains a flag to signal the peripheral that the data that follows is RLE compressed data. Parity bits are also included in the transmitted data. The system can be easily implemented on any Centronics compatible printer system to increase the rate of data transfer.

Abstract: A fish-bite indicator having a rotary part (26) which is engaged by a fishing line when the indicator is in use, such that longitudinal movement of the fishing line causes the rotary part (26) to rotate. Sensor means (76) are provided to produce a signal for every rotation or part rotation of the rotary part (26). A counter (100) is connected to the sensor means (76) and is constructed to issue an indicator signal in dependence upon each signal or each given count of signals it receives from the sensor means (76), the counter (100) being constructed so that the number of each given count is alterable. A manually adjustable member (42) is connected to the counter (100) to enable that count to be altered thereby to enable the sensitivity of the indicator to be varied. The invention also extends to a fish-bite indicator comprising a housing (10) having wall means which define (a) a sealed interior of the housing and (b) an enclosure immediately adjacent to the sealed interior. A rotary part (26) is mounted within the enclosure so as to be rotatable therein and has at least one permanent magnet (66). A magnetic-field sensor (76) is positioned within the sealed interior adjacent to the enclosure, so that rotation of the rotary part (26) by a fishing line when the indicator is in use alters the condition of the magnetic-field sensor (76) to generate a signal indicative of a fish-bite.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a compression scheme (10) tailored to the compression of large radiological images processed with image processing workstations. The compression scheme (10) is a variation of the CCITT JPEG compression scheme with special care taken to suppress blocking effects of the 8x8 discrete cosine transform used therein. In accordance with the present invention, an original image (11) is downsampled (12), then interpolated (14) back to its original size, resulting in a smoothed image (14a). The difference (13) between the smoothed image (14a) and the original image (11) is then compressed (15) using an 8x8 discrete cosine transform with 12 bit data. Major artifacts present in the original image (11) are due to the mismatching of the low frequency components of the image at the edges of the blocks. When the low frequencies are removed by subtracting out the low frequency components, the artifacts disappear except in areas having very large dynamic changes. The compression scheme (10) of the present invention is particularly useful for archiving or telecommunicating images, achieving compression of more than 10:1 without losing the characteristics of the radiological image that permit effective diagnosis. A reconstruction scheme is also disclosed which allows recovery of the image (11) from a compressed image file.

Abstract: A one-piece plastics closure for a carbonated beverage bottle has a sealing ring (24) which extends inwardly and downardly towards the closure mouth from its attachment to the closure body. When the closure is fitted the ring extends around the outer radius (56) and over the annular top face (50) of the bottle neck, backed by a stepless abutment and reaction surface (34) of the closure body. The latter surface engages the sealing ring mechanically above the container top face (50) to determine the fitted position of the closure and create a seal when the pressure in the bottle is low. When the product pressure is high, however, the effective seal is made between the sealing ring (24) and the outer radius (56) of the bottle neck. For that purpose the abutment and reaction surface is roughened, so allowing access for the product pressure to the back of the sealing ring.
