Title: Electromechanical thermostatic mixing valve
Inventor: TSUTSUI OSAMU
IPC: G05D23/13
Filed: 1993-07-19
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/JP93/00999 Sec. 371 Date May 3, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date May 3, 1994 PCT Filed Jul. 19, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/02766 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 3, 1994.An electromechanically controlled thermostatic mixing valve (10) comprises a movable mixing valve member (114) resiliently held between a temperature responsive coiled spring (132) and a bias spring (134). The temperature responsive spring is made of a material such as a shape memory alloy (SMA) having a modulus of elasticity that varies with temperature. The bias spring is supported by an electric drive (46) controlled by an electric control circuit (32) to adjust the preload on the bias spring. In contrast to the bias spring which is subjected to deformation from its free state to its fully compressed state, the SMA spring is held in such a manner that it is subjected to a limited strain throughout the stroke of the valve member. As a result, premature fatigue of the SMA spring is avoided. Transient fluctuation in water temperature is primarily compensated for by a mechanical feedback control performed by the SMA spring. Any persistent offset of temperature is compensated for by electrical feedback control carried out by the electrical control circuit that adjust the preload on the bias spring preload such that the actual water temperature is brought to the desired temperature.

Title: Metabolic analyzer
Inventor: HOWARD CHARLES PETER
IPC: A61B5/087
Filed: 1994-04-13
Abstract: A metabolic rate analyzer comprises a CO2 detector (30), an O2 detector (31), a flow resistance (38), a differential pressure transducer (40), a solenoid-actuated metering valve (33) for producing a volumetrically-proportional sample of respired gas, a vacuum regulator (34) for receiving the sample, a pump (35) for drawing the sample from the vacuum regulator, and a processor (36) for periodically sampling the differential pressure signal to provide a flow signal, to modulate power applied to the solenoid-actuated metering valve (33), and to provide a measure of the total volume of respired gas. The processor correlates the total volume of respired gas, O2 content and CO2 content to provide a measure of metabolic rate. Flow is recycled between the pump (35) and the regulator (34) to provide a source of mixed respired gas for analysis and digital integration of the flow signal provides a measure of the total volume of respired gas. A pulse generator driven by the microprocessor (36) varies the frequency of pulses applied to the metering valve and the pulse width to provide volumetrically-proportional sampling and to control the effective sample volume of the analyzer, respectively. The processor determines the slope of the flow signal and increases the periodic sample rate of the pressure signal when slope is increasing and decreases he periodic sample rate when slop is decreasing to provide derivative augmentation of the sample period. <IMAGE>

Patent AU-5996999-A (AU)
Title: Data compression encoding system
Inventor: SADEH RONI
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 1999-10-03
Abstract: The present invention is embodied in a data compression encoder for use with the discrete cosine transform compression process. The invention enhances compression using the discrete cosine transform by utilizing a prediction engine that breaks the data received into predicted and unpredicted portions. The predicted portions are excluded from the discrete cosine transform reducing the time-required to compress a file. The prediction engine relies, in part, upon look-up tables that are used to determine the predicted blocks. A table build engine and database compiler are used to create the look-up tables.

Abstract: This invention relates to an object detection system and device for detecting objects located on storage sections, and in particular a lower storage section, of a moving shopping cart. The system and device comprise a detecting means wich detects objects on the storage sections of shopping carts when the shopping cart moves into a predetermined position. The detecting means generates a detection signal if an object is detected. The detecting means operates in response to a trigger signal which is sent from a triggering means. The triggering means is operable to sense at least one, and preferably two parts of the shopping cart when the shopping cart moves into the predetermined position. The triggering means sends the triggering signal when it senses the presence of a cart or other body. The preferred triggering embodiment senses three spaced-apart portions of the cart, to minimize erroneous operation of the system by objects other than a cart of predetermined character.

Title: Alcohol-free wet extraction of gluten dough into gliadin and glutenin
Inventor: BASSI SUKH
IPC: C07K1/30
Filed: 1996-07-01
Abstract: An improved alcohol-free method for fractionating gluten into gliadin and glutenin fractions is provided where an acidic dispersion of gluten is formed with a reducing agent (e.g., sodium metabisulfite) operable for breaking disulfide bonds in the gluten protein.
