Abstract: In a screw conveyor for the transport of solids, a conveyor screw (1, 11) with a helical thread is driven into rotation in a closed pipe (3) or semi-circular trough (6). The conveyor screw (1,11) has hard-wearing elements (10) on its effective surface, which extend beyond the radial outside contour (8) of the thread. The conveyor screw (1, 11) can be attached at the radial inside contour (7) of the thread to a supporting axle (2), or it may be with no core or supporting axle, in which case it is supported by the hard-wearing elements (10). The hard-wearing elements (10) are placed at regular intervals in a circumferential direction round the conveyor screw; they are continuous; and their greatest extent is in the axial direction of the conveyor screw (1, 11), enabling them to counteract the occurrence of caking between the pipe/trough (3, 6) and the conveyor screw (1, 11), to reduce the frictional resistance, to function as a wearing part, and to increase the mixing effect of the conveyor screw (1, 11), and keep the material homogeneous.

Abstract: Safety cap (10), especially suitable for tanks of steam producing appliances, provided with a bush (18) with longitudinal grooves (24), a through-hole (20) housing a sphere (28) obtained along the inner body (12) being aligned with said grooves. Within said body, a mobile piston (16) is contained which has a peripheral groove (36). In the absence of pressure, the spheres (28) drag the bush (18) towards the inside of the cap (10); while in the presence of pressure, the piston (16) moves forwards and the spheres (28) go down in the groove (26). Lacking the dragging, the cap (10) cannot be unscrewed. A safety valve, made up by a ring (44) and a gasket (46) steps in automatically in the presence of excess pressure, exhausting the flow from an end hole (22). Piston (16) and said valve are kept under tension by suitably calibrated springs (34) and (50). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Punctured binary convolutional codes are used in a trellis coded modulation scheme to achieve spectral efficiencies as high as those of multi-dimensional codes, using simple hardware. A base rate 1/2 binary convolutional code is punctured to rate n/k. The output of the punctured encoder 18 is mapped to a four-way partition (60, 62, 64, 66; 120, 122, 124, 126) of a 2<N> point two-dimensional QAM constellation. The four-way partition consists of a two-way partition in both the I and Q dimensions. The two-way partitions of each dimension are used to transmit the two level output of the rate n/k binary convolutional coder. (N-2) "uncoded" bits (24) are transmitted by selecting the unique constellation point in a partition group. The code has an average throughput of (N-2)+2n/k bits per symbol. The invention is also applicable to trellis coded amplitude modulation schemes based on 2<N> possible amplitude levels provided along a one-dimensional constellation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fastener for use in attaching a button to a garment or a piece of fabric and a fastener clip including one or more of said fasteners. In a preferred embodiment, the fastener comprises a U-shaped flexible filament and a pair of transverse feet, the transverse feet being disposed at opposite ends of the U-shaped flexible filament. The U-shaped flexible filament is generally rectangular in cross-section. The width of the filament is substantially uniform over its length whereas the thickness of the filament is greatest in its arcuate region (to maximize the strength of the fastener) and least towards the feet. Because of its U-shape, the filament is permitted to extend between adjacent button holes, thereby creating the appearance of thread. The transverse feet, which extend parallel to one another and perpendicularly to the plane of the filament, are sized and shaped both to fit through a button hole and, once inserted through the button hole and an underlying garment, to securely engage the underside of the garment. To minimize contact with a person's skin, the feet of the present fastener are preferably shorter than the transverse bars of existing button fasteners and are preferably comparable in overall size to a knot of thread used to secure a button to a sheet of clothing material. In addition, the feet preferably have rounded ends, a fiat top surface, and a contoured bottom surface to minimize contact with, and hence irritation of, a person's skin.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for determining the remanent noise in a magnetic medium by, for example, DC saturation of a region thereof and measurement of the remaining DC magnetization. A conventional magnetic recording transducer may be used to determine the remanent noise. Upon determination, the remanent noise may then be digitized and recorded on the same magnetic medium to thereby "fingerprint" the magnetic medium. This "fingerprint" may then be later used to verify and authenticate the magnetic medium as being an original. The magnetic medium may be of a type adapted to record information magnetically or, even more broadly, any magnetic surface or substance that can be sensed through its magnetic field. In such manner, any magnetic medium, or any object having an associated magnetic medium, may be "fingerprinted" including credit cards, computer program diskettes, magneto-optic discs, videotapes, cassette tapes, bank checks, stock certificates, etc.
