Title: Flavorful zinc compositions for oral use incorporating copper.
Inventor: GODFREY JOHN C
IPC: A61P3/00
Filed: 1997-10-06
Abstract: Compositions for oral use containing a zinc compound, a copper compound, an amino acid and a base material are described. The compositions provide for slow release of zinc ions upon dissolution in the mouth to thereby achieve beneficial therapeutic effects from the zinc ions. The copper compound provides copper ions which serve to counterbalance a large intake of zinc as is present upon prolonged oral use of the composition. A molar ratio of amino acid to zinc of 2 to 20 and a molecular ratio of copper to zinc of 0.1 to 0.01 provides compositions with a palatable taste and no aftertaste even upon the inclusion of the copper compound.

Patent GB-2377863-B (GB)
Title: Modified transmission method for improving accuracy for e-911 calls
Inventor: STILP LOUIS A
IPC: H04W4/90
Filed: 2001-03-22
Granted: 2004-11-03
Abstract: The accuracy of the location estimate of a Wireless Location System is dependent, in part, upon both the transmitted power of the wireless transmitter and the length in time of the transmission from the wireless transmitter. In general, higher power transmissions and transmissions of greater transmission length can be located with better accuracy by the Wireless Location System than lower power and shorter transmissions. Wireless communications systems generally limit the transmit power and transmission length of wireless transmitters in order to minimize interference within the communications system and to maximize the potential capacity of the system. The inventive method disclosed herein meets the conflicting needs of both systems by enabling the wireless communications system to minimize transmit power and length while enabling improved location accuracy for certain types of calls, such as wireless 9-1-1 calls. The method comprises the following steps: a wireless transmitter receives normal transmission parameters from a base station; the user of the wireless transmitter initiates a call on the wireless transmitter by dialing a sequence of digits and pressing "SEND" or "YES"; a processor within the wireless transmitter compares the dialed sequence of digits with one or more trigger events stored within the wireless transmitter; if the dialed sequence of digits does not match the trigger event, then the wireless transmitter uses the normal transmission parameters in making the call; and if the dialed sequence of digits matches the trigger event, then the wireless transmitter uses a modified transmission sequence.

Title: Form-fill-seal machine and method with capability for providing a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere within the package
Inventor: MUGNAI GIORGIO
IPC: B65B31/02
Filed: 1984-09-14
Granted: 1988-05-11
Abstract: A machine for packaging articles in continuous tubular material, which may be formed by rolling the marginal edges of a flat web around a succession of the product articles to bring the marginal edges into contact and then sealing them continuously to complete the tube, comprises a pair of transverse sealing jaws 14 and 1 which each include a hemi-cylindrical chamber 24 having gas-pervious walls 16 and defining a cylindrical space 25 initially centrally divided by the film between two successive product articles 1.The film extending diametrically across the space 25 is first of all severed and then suction is applied to the gas-pervious walls 16 to draw the film into contact with the walls 16. To the righthand side of the space 25 is a double impulse sealing system 18, 19 centrally divided by a knife 21 which separates a righthand pack 28 from the film in the space 25, and to the lefthand side of that space 25 is a further double impulse sealing system 18, 20, again with a knife 22 to effect separation. The sealing pads 20 at the lefthand side are movable by means of push rods 27 so that initially they allow the pack 8bto be communicated with the space 25 while the pack 8a has been separated from the space 25, and this enables gas from within the pack 8b to be extracted by way of the hemi-cylindrical chambers 24 and the suction conduits 17. Subsequently the two sealing pads 20 are pressed into contact with their counterpressure pads 18 and the righthand side of the pack 8b is then isolated from the space 25.

Title: Image display
Inventor: RICHARDS NORMAN DENNIS
IPC: G06T1/00
Filed: 1987-11-18
Granted: 1991-03-13
Abstract: Pixel information representing an image for display is coded using data compression. The data compression consists in obtaining the pixel information as a first matrix of high resolution pixel values, subtracting from this first matrix a second matrix composed of lower resolution pixel values, produced by low pass filtering the first matrix, to produce a third matrix of difference values, sub-sampling the second matrix to produce a fourth matrix of less density lower resolution pixel values and coding the third and fourth matrices. Complementary decoding consists in restituting the second matrix by interpolation filtering the decoded fourth matrix, and combining the restituted second matrix with the decoded third matrix. Loss of accuracy in the decoding method is reduced by coding and then decoding the fourth matrix during the coding method before it is interpolated to full pixel density to form the restituted second matrix which is subtracted from the first matrix to produce the third matrix of difference values. In this way, any sub-sampling and interpolation errors in the restituted fourth matrix occur in both the coding method and the decoding method and therefore cancel out. Figure 3 illustrates the coding method including these coding and decoding steps.

Abstract: The present invention presents a movable sky light assembly used on a opening of a roof comprising a fixed frame, a wing frame with a lighting member supported on the fixed frame, said fixed frame being equipped with a driving device to operate said wing frame capable of opening and closing by connecting members for the frames. The fixed frame is provided with a detecting device for rainfall and the detecting device comprises a detecting sensor and its protecting means, and the sky light is constructed so as, when the wing frame is open, the detecting sensor of the detecting device is in the working posture and, when the wing frame is closed, the detecting sensor is protected by the protecting means. As the sky light is used also for ventilation, the connecting members of the frames are formed as a operating member of the wing frame and various aspects of the rain detecting device to close the wing frame in the rain is disclosed in relation to the operating member. Also in the invention, the fixing construction of the lighting member on the wing frame as well as the means for stable operation is improved in many ways to eliminate drawbacks of prior art through the actual experiences obtained.

Title: Micro-mechanical oscillator of an oscillation gyrometer
Inventor: BUESTGENS BURKHARD
IPC: G01C19/574
Filed: 1995-04-11

Abstract: The micro-mechanical oscillatory system uses the Coriolis forces generated at right angles to the plane of oscillation during the angular displacements of a rotating body. A semiconductor substrate (10) has two relatively heavy masses (1, 2) supported from a coupling mass formed by the frame (3) by the folded leaf springs (4, 5) which are set in antiphase oscillation by e.g. an electromagnetic or electrostatic field. The frame (3) is itself supported w.r.t. the substrate (10) by the springs (6) and all springs allow deflection in the plane of oscillation only so that the effect of a forming moment is efficiently transmitted to the masses (1, 2) for evaluation.
