Title: Lamination anchoring method and product thereof
Inventor: LARSONNEUR LIONEL M
IPC: B32B7/08
Filed: 1987-04-07
Granted: 1990-04-26
Abstract: Conventionally absorbent sheets for meat packaging are made of absorbent cellulose laminations 18 with a cover sheet 14 of polyethylene. The laminations are compression bonded by means of a serrated wheel which forms a series of indentations along one or more lines. When moisture is absorbed the sheet 14 tends to delaminate. To prevent this a thermo-setting material such as a wax is applied along the line of indentations. A wax rivet 24 is thus formed which provides additional mechanical bonding and prevents access of moisture to the immediate region of the compression bond 22 by reason of the absorbed wax 24A.

Title: Position detector
Inventor: ELY DAVID THOMAS ELIOT
IPC: G06F3/046
Filed: 1998-06-17
Granted: 2002-06-06
Abstract: A position detector is provided for detecting the relative movement of first and second members which are mounted for relative movement along a measuring path. One of the members comprises a magnetic field generator for generating a magnetic field and the other member comprises first and second conductors which are inductively coupled to said magnetic field generator. The arrangement of the first and second conductors and the magnetic field generator is such that the output signals are generated in a first and second receive circuits whose position varies with the relative movement between the two members. In addition to carrying information relating to the relative position between the two members, the signals induced in the receive circuits also comprise information defining the relative orientation of the two movable members, and by suitable processing of the received signals the relative orientation of the two members can also be determined. In a preferred form of the invention, the system operates to define the relative position and orientation of the two movable members in first and second directions from which the relative orientation of the two members in a plane containing the two directions can be determined. The signals induced in the receive circuits can also be processed to give an indication of the gap between the two circuits and to provide an indication of the full relative orientation of the two members.

Title: Knee brace
Inventor: LERMAN MAX
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 1982-06-28
Granted: 1985-01-03
Abstract: A knee brace comprises generally U-shaped upper and lower support members for fitting around the upper and lower leg above and below the knee joint; two pairs of upper and lower support arms extending downwardly and upwardly, respectively, from the upper and lower support members along opposite sides of the patient's upper leg; and polycentric hinges for pivoting the upper support arms to the lower support arms adjacent lateral and medial sides of the knee joint. Floating condyle pads are affixed to fixed inside portions of the polycentric hinges. The condyle pads are held in direct contact with the lateral and medial sides of the patient's knee joint. The condyle pads are restrained from rotational movement but are hinged so they can pivot toward or away from each other about common generally vertical axes within the space between the polycentric hinges. The condyle pads can be spring-biased inwardly by their hinges for contact with opposite sides of the knee joint during swinging movement of the upper and lower leg about a horizontal axis. Flexible and longitudinally elastic upper and lower straps are releasably secured to the upper and lower limb support members. The straps extend in opposite directions away from the sides of the upper and lower support members. This provides a de-rotation strapping system which inhibits twisting of the lower leg relative to the upper leg about a vertical axis.

Title: Landing wheels gyroscopic effects cancellation - is performed by contra-rotating weight coaxial with wheels
IPC: B64C25/40
Filed: 1972-01-19
Abstract: The scheme for balancing out gyroscopic moment effects in aircraft, esp. those of pre-rotated undercarriage wheels, consists of fitting each wheel (3) with a co-axial cylindrical counterweight (42), with gear teeth (40) around its periphery. Teeth on an axially movable bar (6) engage with those on the weight to cause it to rotate; via an idler wheel (41) this also produces the required rotation of the wheel. The higher speed of rotation compensates for smaller mass of the weight. Additionally or alternatively to the scheme with the rotating weights, an automatic bias can be applied to the lateral control system. This is based on air-and-wheel rotation speeds. A computer is used to coordinate the system.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To perform double-precision arithmetic at a high speed through a single-precision pipeline computing element by setting a way or a method of outputting, etc., for setting an arithmetic mode and an input data and sending an arithmetic continuation command to the computing element by as many times as arithmetics. CONSTITUTION:The output of a selector 312 is sent to the 1st stage of the pipeline computing element through a control signal line 303-1 and also inputted to a register 314. A decoder 311 sends a latch permission signal to registers 314 and 318 when a command or push instruction is sent through an input signal line 302-1. When the input signal is command, or push or data setting instruction, the latch permission signal is sent to the 1st-stage register of the pipeline computing element through a latch permission signal line 315. The 2nd and succeeding stage latch registers 318 and 322 output control signals of an arithmetic circuit directly in order to establish the control signals at fast timing.

Abstract: As preparation for the seam welding of metal plates (10, 12) of different thickness, at least the thicker (10) of the two plates is worked, preferably by machining, in such a way as to reduce the thickness in its edge area (11) intended for welding. By the edge areas (11, 13) to be welded then being adapted to one another in their thicknesses (t1, t2), there are virtually symmetric conditions for the welding operation with regard to the groove plane, so that work can be carried out essentially with the same, controllable welding parameters as in the seam welding of metal plates of the same thickness. The method is suitable in particular for use in mash seam welding, but also in other seam welding processes such as, for example, laser welding. <IMAGE>
