Patent EP-1236456-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KARAMI HAZMEH
IPC: A61F13/64
Filed: 2002-02-28
Abstract: A disposable absorbent article such as, e.g., a T-shaped diaper comprising
two portions, a lateral portion (backwaist) having two lateral segments or
wings for wrapping around the waist of a wearer of the diaper, and a second
vertical portion or insert which is adapted to be passed under the crotch of
the wearer and folded thereover. A uniquely designed tape tab located at the
outer lateral end of one wing assures more perfect and comfortable fit. Tape
tabs are also provided at the distal ends of vertical portion for engagement
onto landing zones disposed on the surface of each wing. These tape tabs
may have the same general construction as the tape tab on the diaper wing.
The dimensions of the diaper and several of its components and the relative
locations of these components are important factors which contribute to
improved fitness and functions of the diaper.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include an optical fiber cable (10) having
improved optical fiber densities and no central strength member. The optical fiber
cable includes one or more multi-fiber unit tubes (16) having an optical fiber ribbon
stack (12) snugly positioned therein. The diagonal length of the ribbon stack is
approximately equal or, alternatively, at least 90% of the inner diameter of the unit

Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment, digital content is mastered as a combination of encrypted data and data processing operations that enable use in approved playback environments. Player devices having a processing environment compatible with the content's data processing operations are able to decrypt and play the content. Players can also provide content with basic functions, such as loading data from media, performing network communications, determining playback environment configuration, controlling decryption/playback, and/or performing cryptographic operations using the player's keys. These functions allow the content to implement and enforce its own security policies. If pirates compromise individual players or content titles, new content can be mastered with new security features that block the old attacks. A selective decryption capability can also be provided, enabling on-the-fly watermark insertion so that attacks can be traced back to a particular player. Features to enable migration from legacy formats are also provided.

Abstract: By constructing tank cleaning equipment according to the invention such that it comprises a cleaning jetting part (7, 9) as well as a suction part (4), the equipment can work with the same cleaning medium which is recirculated. This saves supply of fresh cleaning medium, and since used medium is thus not discharged, it is not necessary to establish deposit facilities to avoid pollution. Furthermore, this equipment according to the invention may advantageously be used for keeping so-called drilling mud in a mixed and thus ready-to-use state, even when left to stand for an extended period of time in a tank. The nozzle jets (10) thus keep the mud in the tank in a constantly mixed state, and the mud can therefore be sucked through the suction pipe (20) for pumping in the drill pipe, it being ensured that the mud is homogeneous and has a suitable viscosity.

Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit (100) for enhancing a stereo sound signal, represented by a left input signal (L) and a right input signal (R). By only using the parts of the left input signal (L) and the right input signal (R) that are not correlated to each other, unwanted stereo enhancement of, for example, dialogs is eliminated. On the other hand, the stereo image of sound effects like explosions will be enhanced. Most movies are properly mixed for this. In one embodiment of the invention, a center signal is generated by averaging the left input signal and the right input signal. The invention relates to a method of enhancing a stereo sound signal. The invention also relates to an apparatus (500) for reproducing sound. The invention further relates to a record carrier (610) comprising a computer-executable code, enabling a computer (620) to perform the method according to the invention.
