Title: Variable length codeword packer
Inventor: DEROVANESSIAN HENRY
IPC: H04B1/66
Filed: 1994-03-22
Granted: 1996-12-12
Abstract: A variable length codeword packer (Fig. 3) communicates codeword data in successive m-bit bytes. A binary sum is accumulated (86) indicative of a total number of codeword bits received over time. A byte pointer (90) is derived from at least one most significant bit of the binary sum. A bit pointer (92) is derived from a plurality of least significant bits of the binary sum. A first data storage array (20) has a plurality of m-bit first storage bytes and is responsive to the byte pointer for storing received codeword data in the first storage bytes. A second data storage array (22) has a plurality of m-bit second storage bytes and is responsive to the byte and bit pointers for filling the second storage bytes with codeword data from the first data storage array (20). m-bit bytes of codeword data (25) are output from each filled second storage byte to provide successive m-bit bytes of codeword data. The use of a multistage approach in packing variable length codewords substantially reduces the complexity as compared to single stage designs. <IMAGE>

Title: Edible spread
IPC: A23D7/05
Filed: 1990-10-09
Granted: 1993-05-27
Abstract: Edible spreads are prone to microbiological spoilage by a number of organisms, including molds and bacteria as well as by physical changes occurring on storage. While the growth of these organisms and consequently the onset of spoilage can be inhibited by the use of preservatives, some consumers find preservatives unacceptable. We have determined that in edible fat products wherein the fat phase comprise a homogeneous dispersion of fine crystals and in which the fat phase is essentially free of crystalline aggregates spoilage is greatly reduced. Anhydrous products can be produced by melting the fat, substantially in the absence of an aqueous medium, cooling the melted fat to a temperature at which partial crystallization occurs, homogenising the partially crystallised fat, and, cooling the homogenised fat to further crystallise the fat. By means of a modified process it is possible to produce comprising 50-60% fat phase, 40-50% water phase, 0.1-1% lecithin, 0.01-1% salt, being essentially free of monoglycerides, proteins and sorbate salts, which are stable on storage.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/04126 Sec. 371 Date May 20, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date May 20, 1998 PCT Filed Sep. 20, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/11797 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 3, 1997An apparatus for descaling semi-finished products, such as thin slabs or steel strips in rolling mills by highly pressurized water that is sprayed through a nozzle device onto the surface of the semi-finished product is characterized in that the nozzle device is movable with a vertical component above the surface of the semi-finished product by means of a drive. The drive can be controlled by a control device that receives a target distance as input value and an actual distance between the nozzle device and the surface of the semi-finished product detected by means of a distance sensor. The control device supplies an output signal via a signal line to the drive for resetting any deviation to zero. Hence, the nozzle device is always kept at a desired target distance even if humps such as bulgings occur on the surface of the semi-finished product.

Granted: 1994-03-24
Abstract: A device suitable for securing objects such as plant pot holders removably to a beam-like support comprises a strap (10) at least sufficient in length to embrace the support, means (18) to tighten the strap about the support and at least one coupling element (24) cooperative with the strap. The coupling element(s) (24) if separable from the strap (10) engage with the strap (10) over a sufficient length to limit circumferential swing of a secured object, for example by way of a buckle or a flat hook or plurality of hooks. The linkages of each coupling element (24) to the strap (10) and to the object are preferably mutually displaced such that the linkage to the object bears against the support and the force distorting the strap is thereby limited. Preferably the strap (10) is tightenable by a male screw (16) engaging with a rack of teeth (22) upstanding from its surface. Preferably the male screw (16) is disengageable and tapered and when in use is angled to the plane of the rack.

Granted: 2002-05-16
Abstract: A disposable multi-compartment applicator has two receptacle blisters hermetically closed by a film. One of the receptacle blisters may contain a liquid, fluid, cream, or paste element and the other receptacle blister may contain a dry element, pad, compress, or a material having absorption and restitution power. Squeezing one receptacle blister separates part of the film along a zone of weakness to put the liquid element in communication with the dry element, while keeping the device completely hermetic. After the dry element has been in communication with the liquid element, the dry element may be uncovered for first-aid or other use. The applicator may additionally house sticking plaster or a bandage for covering a wound that has been cleaned using the applicator.

Title: Delayed total release gastrointestinal drug delivery system
Inventor: LERNER E ITZHAK
IPC: A61K31/44
Filed: 1998-10-01
Granted: 2001-11-15
Abstract: A gastrointestinal delivery system is provided. The system comprises a drug in combination with a swellable core material, the core being surrounded by a water-insoluble or relatively water-insoluble coating material in which particulate water-insoluble material is embedded. When the delivery device enters the gastrointestinal tract, the particulate matter takes up liquid, thus forming channels interconnecting the drug-containing core with the outside of the delivery device. Through these channels liquid enters the core which then swells to the point at which the coating is broken. When the integrity of the coating is destroyed, the core then disintegrates immediately releasing all or most of the drug at a specific site. By controlling parameters in the device, such as the core material, carrier material in the coating, and particulate matter, the location of release of the drug can be carefully controlled. Thus, the invention is also directed to a method of using the device for the treatment of disease by the release of drugs in the gastrointestinal tract in a location- and time-dependent manner.

Title: Storage capacitor charging circuit - uses electronic switch turned periodically on and off to ensure that charging voltage never exceeds constant voltage required
IPC: H02M3/04
Filed: 1971-12-16
Abstract: The circuit is for charging a storage capacitor to a constant voltage from a d.c voltage source by using an electronic switch periodically switched on and off. The circuit ensures that the charging voltage of the storage capacitor exactly attains the nominal value and never exceeds the nominal value. Thus, a nominal voltage (Uo) corresp. to the constant voltage is compared, against the sum of the actual voltage (Uc) of the capacitor and a measurement voltage (U2) dependent on the current in the charging circuit. A switch-off command is issued for the electronic switch when on each occasion, the sum voltage matches the nominal voltage. The measurement voltage (Uz) is made dependent on the charging current, so that at switch-off of the electronic switch the total electrical energy in the smoothing choke and capacitor corresponds to the nominal energy of the capacitor associated with the nominal voltage (Uo).
