Abstract: A breathable moisture barrier suitable for use in enclosing flexible electrodes, foam substrate and other electrical components within a substantially liquid impervious environment without significantly impairing the ability of electrical sensors to accurately measure temperature and humidity variations within the surrounding environment such as the seating compartment of an automobile. It is further disclosed that a breathable polymeric material having a sufficiently high moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR) will permit water vapor to be transported across the barrier and quickly reach equilibrium within the enclosed seat sensor mat assembly and to allow the humidity compensation of the occupant sensing system to function correctly. The breathable moisture barrier of the present invention provides a sufficiently high MVTR to allow rapid humidity equilibration within the sensor mat so as to better track rapid changes in the passenger compartment environmental conditions upon starting the car and applying either air conditioning or heating.

Abstract: A system and process for coating pieces or cores of confectionery material, such as chewing gum, with a sugar-based coating or a sugarless-based coating. The solid content of the sugar or sugarless material in the syrup solution is increased, thus reducing the water content and allowing the successive coating layers to be dried more quickly. The syrup solution is maintained at an elevated temperature in order to prevent the syrup solids from precipitating or crystallizing out of solution.

Abstract: An adaptive closed-loop controller is described that reduces repetitive speed variations of precision rotatable mechanical components, such as rollers, casting wheels, pulleys, gears, pull rollers, extruders, gear pumps, and the like. A system is illustrated in which the controller is coupled to a motor for driving a rotatable mechanical component in response to a motor control signal. A sensor is mounted to the shaft of the mechanical component, and generates a speed signal representing angular velocity of a mechanical component. The controller receives the speed signal, and generates a set of data elements to relate speed variations of the mechanical component to a plurality of angular positions of the mechanical component over one or more revolutions. The controller generates an error signal based on the data elements and introduces the error signal into closed-loop control circuitry to provide adaptive control over the mechanical component.
