Title: Roof and wall panel mounting assembly
Inventor: GIBBS ALDEN T
IPC: E04D1/34
Filed: 1994-06-21
Granted: 2004-11-23
Abstract: The invention is a mounting assembly for attaching panels to a support surface. It includes various designs of spaced elongated mounting tracks secured to the support surface (usually a deck or wall), and panels provided with mounting devices, such as clips, detachably secured at apposite edges of each panel. These devices serve as the intermediary in attaching the panel to the mounting track, which, in turn, is fastened to the support deck or to an other appropriate surface. Each panel is attached to a mounting track in a way that permits arrangement in courses, with the panels side by side, and when appropriate, in overlapping courses.

Abstract: A control switch assembly includes a housing having a base with an opening and a pair of side walls on opposite sides of the opening.  An actuator member is rotatably mounted in the opening and has a body which forms a pocket.  The pocket is open at one end and has a partially cylindrical bottom surface.  A lever includes a body at least partially received by the pocket, an arm projecting from the body and an abutment surface.  The body has a slot extending therethrough parallel to the pivot pin.  The slot is elongated along an plane which is perpendicular to the pivot pin axis so that the pivot pin is slidably and rotatably received by the slot.  The lever is slidable with respect to the pivot pin from a raised position wherein the body of the lever is spaced apart from the bottom surface of the pocket to a depressed position wherein the body of the lever engages the bottom surface of the pocket.  A pair of springs are biassed to urge the lever to its raised position.  A stop member projects from the housing and is engagable with the lever abutment surface to prevent pivoting of the lever in a first direction when the lever is in its raised position.  The lever abutment surface being positioned to avoid engagement with the stop member as the lever is rotated in the first direction from its depressed position.

Title: Event correlation
Inventor: GRACE ANDREW
IPC: H04M3/22
Filed: 1994-02-22
Granted: 1999-08-10
Abstract: Simultaneous events reported to an equipment management system are compared with historical data in order to establish whether there is a relationship between the events. Historical data is used to determine the statistical probability of the events occurring independently simultaneously.  If this probability is below a predetermined threshold this will suggest that the events are not independent, but are related. Such relationships are alerted to an operator, for example by highlighting or grouping on a screen display, assisting the operator in identification of related events, without the need for prior knowledge of the relationship in the system. The events may be alarms generated by faults in a network. The identification of related faults at different points in the network assists identification of their common cause. The historical database may be updated by further event occurrences as they are reported to the equipment management system, thereby enlarging the database to make the results more statistically accurate. Events may be reported to the system automatically or by human agency. To allow for systematic delays in event reporting, alarms from one source may be compared with alarms from another source occurring a fixed time later or earlier.

Title: Collapsed, tubular carton erecting apparatus
Inventor: PAZDERNIK IRVAN L
IPC: B31B50/80
Filed: 1994-02-14
Granted: 2006-05-09
Abstract: An apparatus (10) for erecting collapsed, tubular cartons (12) is disclosed including a device (32) for removing the top carton (12) of a vertical stack of cartons (12) in a hopper (26) and moving it in a horizontal orientation to an operative position.      In the operative position, the second side panel (16) of the collapsed carton (12) underlies at least the first end panel (18) which is in a linear arrangement with the first side panel (14). Suction cups (76) carried by a frame (74) are secured to the second side panel (16) in an attachment position and moved by a parallelogram linkage to an open position located vertically below and coinciding with the first side panel (14). In a first preferred form, the folded closure flaps (22-25) are held by a tape piece (116) applied by a taping machine (114) carried by the last tucking arm (106).      In another preferred form, the folded closure flaps (22-25) are fan folded by rotating and sliding folding arms (140-143) of a device (120) so that tape pieces (116) or similar agents to hold the closure flaps (22-25) are not needed. An unload arm (84) is then pivoted about a first axis from a pickup position to a drop position and is simultaneously pivoted about a second axis from a first condition to a second condition to place the erected carton (12) in a chute (118) at an offset location and in a horizontal orientation. In the most preferred form, the unload arm (84) is pivoted about the second axis by a crank arm (98) secured to the unload arm (84) and a connector (100) having its opposite end secured to a stationary reference point when the unload amp (84) is pivoted about the first axis.

Title: Method and apparatus for characterizing an input signal
Inventor: MEYERS MARTIN HOWARD
IPC: G10L17/06
Filed: 1995-12-14
Granted: 1999-06-15
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for measuring at least one signal characteristic.  Initially, a set of features is selected whichcharacterize a signal.  An intelligent system, such as a neural network, is trained in the relationship between feature sets and signal characteristics. The selected feature set is then extracted from a first input signal.  The extracted feature set from the first signal is input to the trained intelligent system.  The intelligent system creates an output signal based on the feature set extracted from the first input signal.  This output signal is then used to characterize the input signal.  In one embodiment, the invention assesses voice quality, typically as expressed in MOS scores, in a manner which accurately corresponds to the analysis of human evaluators. For voice signals processed by voice coders, the present invention provides a measurement technique which is independent of various voice coding algorithms and consistent for any given algorithm.

Abstract: A road resurfacing device has a frame on which is mounted a ripper bar for ripping the road surface, to a controlled depth, and behind it a separator for separating coarse and fine material in the road surface such the coarse material is deposited on fine material. The frame is supported by rollers extending across the frame. The ripper bar has depending teeth in rows on both sides of the ripper bar and is rotatable so that either sets of teeth, which may be at different heights, rip the road surface. The separator is formed of ground turning discs mounted on angled shafts to direct material first to one side and then to the other. The ground turning discs rotate counter to the direction of movement of the frame. A method of resurfacing a gravel road includes ripping the surface of the gravel road to break up fine and coarse material near the surface of the gravel road; and separating coarse material from fine material such that coarse material is deposited on top of the fine material. The road may then be graded. The depth of rip is controlled to rip up gravel and not penetrate the sub-surface of the gravel road. The ripping and separation functions are achieved by moving the road resurfacing device of the invention across a gravel road behind, in front of or under a grader or tractor.

Granted: 2009-08-04
Abstract: A method for treating autoimmune disease, or the pain and/or insomnia associated with autoimmune disease, in a mammalian subject, particularly a human, which method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of certain 2-amino purine compounds to the subject. The compounds particularly useful are antiviral compounds exemplified by acyclovir, valacyclovir, penciclovir and famciclovir.  The compounds are administered at doses significantly higher (4 to 12 times) than the dose level currently approved and used to treat currently recognized manifestations of viral infections. Currently approved doses result in blood levels of about 0.5-1.0 micrograms/ml.  This new technique results in blood levels of about 3-10 micrograms/ml with about 6 micrograms per ml being optimal.
