Patent EP-1161397-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JASCHKE KLEMENS
IPC: B65H65/00
Filed: 2000-03-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for guiding and cutting a continuously tapering thread (1) when changing bobbins in a winding device. To this end, the thread is guided essentially parallel to a bobbin or to a tube (13) by means of a moveable thread guide (18), said bobbin or tube being driven by a slubbing roller (29). A deflecting device (2) and a suction device (37) are arranged downstream from the thread guide (18), said suction device being comprised of a pneumatic suction connection (46) and of a cutting device (47). The suction device (37) interacts with a transferring device in order to cut the thread when changing bobbins and in order to take up the free thread end of the tapering thread. In order to enable a gentle processing of the thread when changing bobbins, the thread guide (18) is arranged, in the flow of the thread, in front of the driven tube (13), and the deflecting device (2) as well as the suction device (37) are arranged behind said driven tube. In order to catch and wind the thread onto a new tube (13) which is driven by a slubbing roller (29), the thread is guided by the deflecting device (2) and by the thread guide (18) outside of the contact area between the tube (13) and the slubbing roller (29).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a signal processing apparatus
and method that is effective in protecting the copyright of a digital
signal. 
     More specifically, the present invention provides a signal
processing apparatus for detecting whether or not a digital signal has
been subjected to a compression process, the signal processing
apparatus being characterized by including storage means for storing
a first amount of information used as a reference for detecting whether
or not a digital signal with electronic watermarking information
embedded therein has been subjected to the compression process, the
first amount of information being the amount of the electronic
watermarking information, extraction means for extracting the
electronic watermarking information contained in digital signal to be
detected; and detection means for detecting a second amount of
information that is the amount of the electronic watermarking
information extracted and comparing the first amount of information
with the second amount of information to detect whether or not the
digital signal to be detected has been subjected to the compression
process. 
     This enables detection of whether or not a digital signal with
electronic watermarking information embedded therein has been
compressed.

Inventor: ELLEY YASSIR K
IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2000-05-02
Abstract: In accordance with the invention, on-line group servers issue group membership or group non-membership certificates upon request. Furthermore, when a requester requests a group certificate for a particular entity, the associated group server makes a dynamic decision regarding the entity's membership in the group rather than simply referring to a membership list. These capabilities provide for, among other things, the implementation of 'nested' groups, wherein an entity may indirectly prove membership in a first, or nested, group by proving membership in a second group which is a member of the first group. In the nested group situation, the dynamic decision may involve the group server of the nested group obtaining proof of the entity's membership or non-membership in the second group. Proof of membership or non-membership may include a group certificate and/or a group membership list. Alternatively, the requester may present proof of the entity's membership or non-membership in the second group to the group server of the nested group. In the common case, the requester and the entity will be the same.

Abstract: The invention relates to an infusion apparatus for use in combination with an infusion bag (10) comprising and/or being connectable with a conduit means (12) for transport of infusion liquid to a patient. The infusion apparatus comprises a first space (14) in which the infusion bag (10) is disposed. The infusion apparatus comprises also a second space (16). The volume of this second space (16) can be varied by supplying a pressure generating liquid to the second space (16). This change in volume of the second space (16) exerts a pressure on the infusion bag (10). The infusion apparatus comprises also a closing means (20) which exerts a load on the conduit means (12). If the pressure generating liquid exerts a pressure on the infusion bag (10) the load will decrease. This allows infusion liquid to leave the infusion bag (10) via the conduit means (12).
