Patent AU-2002232601-A1 (AU)
Title: Control embedded machine condition monitor
Inventor: MCCALMONT PAUL E
IPC: G01H1/00
Filed: 2001-11-30
Abstract: Analog signals are generated in response to one or more operating parameters of a machine such as vibration and used to provide a log of the operating history of the machine. The analog signals are converted into root mean square (rms) values which are periodically sampled. The sampled signals are sorted into predefined rms value bands. Each occurrence of a signal in an rms value band is used to increment a counter in order to keep track of the number of occurrences of signals in a particular rms value band. The number of accumulated signals in each of the rms value bands provides an indication of the usage and condition of the machine.

Title: Method for producing a component by means of a powdery starting material and extractor suitable therefore
Inventor: BERGER THOMAS
IPC: B22F3/10
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: According to a known method for producing a component by means of a powdery starting material, powder is mixed with auxiliaries comprising binding agents, whereby a free-flowing mass is produced. A green body is produced from the mass by means of powder injection moulding. A portion of the auxiliaries is extracted by heating the green body in a container and exposing said body to a stream of solvents. The green body is sintered, whereby the component is produced. The aim of the invention is to enable fast and gentle extraction for releasing green bodies which are produced by means of powder injection moulding. According to the invention, the extraction comprises a heating-up phase during which the temperature of the green body is permanently or gradually increased and the green body is overflown by solvent in the form of a compressed, supercritical treatment gas. An extractor that is suitable for carrying out said method is characterised by a pressure sealed housing that is provided with at least one lateral limiting wall and encloses a treatment chamber for receiving a carrier element which is loaded with a plurality of green bodies. Said housing is provided with a lock-up load and removal opening for the green bodies. Said opening is configured in the lateral limiting wall as a passage for the carrier element.

Title: Method for increasing the soil humidity and for obtaining of atmospheric water by subsoil condensation
Inventor: MINEV EMIL P
IPC: A01B79/00
Filed: 1989-07-05
Abstract: The method is used in hydro-land reclamation of arid and semi-desert areas. It provides an uninterrupted work-regime of condensation, a high yield of water, which is also obtained by evaporated humidity, and the capacity of atmospheric condensation of humidity is around three times bigger than under natural conditions. The essence of the method is that the condensation of humidity is performed by the air flow near the ground compressed by a fan and led into underground linear drainage veins with envelope of a textile filter, through a high-voltage air ionisation and temperature gradient, carried out by the soil environment and by a cooling agent.

Filed: 1989-11-07
Abstract: An optical pickup device for a recording and/or reproducing apparatus in which a light beam from semiconductor laser element is converged by an object lens and irradiated on recording tracks of an optical disk and the light reflected by the disk is sensed to read and/or record data signals. The device includes photosensors each having an insensitive central zone and adapted to receive the reflected light to generate tracking error signals. The semiconductor laser element is so arranged that the light beam is projected on the optical disk so that the meridional plane of the light beam extending orthogonal to the junction plane of semiconductor layers of the semiconductor laser element is at such an angle with respect to a tangential line drawn to one of the recording tracks of the optical disk that non-symmetricities on both sides of said tangential line as a function of the de-focusing direction of the beam spot may be compensated.

Abstract: A limited deflection spring for use in a box spring assembly  has a unitary wire body having a foot portion, an upright yieldable portion  on the foot portion  and a loading  bearing portion  at the upper  end of  the upright  portion.   The  upright  yieldable  portion  includes  a  pair  of horizontally spaced upright columns which  diverge relative to each  other. Each of the upright columns is  suspended between the load bearing  portion and the foot portion by separate upper and lower torsion bar systems.  Each of the torsion bar systems includes a pair of generally horizontal  torsion bars connected together  by a  central connecting bar.  Suspension of  the upright columns  between  separate  torsion bar  systems  enhances  lateral stability and  impact load  withstand capability  of the  spring  elements. Spring elements having upwardly diverging upright columns may be mixed with elements having  downwardly  diverging  upright columns  in  a  box  spring assembly so  as to  produce  an optimum  desired  loading response  in  the assembly.

IPC: F16L55/172
Filed: 1989-12-07
Abstract: The assembly comprises a pair of semi-circular steel shells. The inner surface of one shell forms a circular recess.          A flat cylindrical annular seal element is seated in and fills the recess.  The element is resilient and deformable.   It has concentric protruding ribs on its top and bottom surfaces.  The seal element is positioned to circumscribe a leaking small hole or crack in the wall of an internally pressurized pipeline.  The shells are then circumferentially clamped against the pipeline to cause the element to seal around the leak and to effect tight shell-on-pipe  contact.   The  steel  side wall  of  the  recess confines the compressed seal element.   The side edges of the shells   are   then   welded   together   longitudinally   and circumferentially to create a permanent pressure vessel sealing and containing the leak.

Two 16 bit by 16 bit fixed point products or one 32 bit floating point product arc ini-tiated on every clock pulse and results of the multiplication process are available after a fixed pipeline delay on a continuous basis. The fixed and floating point pipe-line operations may also be interleaved. The 32 bit input operands are selected from three external sources or from the last output product. A modified Booth algorithm is implemented employing dual parallel processing paths which are employed to sepa-rately produce the 16 bit by 16 bit fixed point products or are combined to produce the 32 bit floating point product. Exponent computations are performed in parallel h the floating point computational mode.

Title: Helical bend proof testing of optical fibers
IPC: G01N3/34
Filed: 1990-03-07
Abstract: HELICAL BEND PROOF TESTING OF OPTICAL FIBERS               ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE        An  optical  fiber  is proof tested by bending it  relative  to  the  fiber  axis  by  a preselected amount,  in all directions and at all locations along the  length  of  the  fiber.    In  one approach, the optical  fiber   is  wrapped  around  a  cylindrical mandrel  in  a  helical  pattern  and  drawn over the mandrel   through   its  entire  length.    With  the preferred  helical  angle  of  about  45 degrees, two wraps  of the optical fiber around the mandrel ensure that   all   of   the  fiber  will  be  bent  in  all directions.    If  a flaw exists in the optical fiber that  would  cause  failure  at any amount of bending below  that  of  the  preselected  amount, this proof test  will  cause  the fiber to fail so that the weak point may be eliminated.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          A method for genetic typing of human DNA is disclosed.  The method has utility in detecting microsatellite polymorphisms in DNA from a sample of human individuals selected from a population of individuals and in determining a human subject from a sample of biological material containing human DNA.  The method examines polymorphisms of a (dT-dG)n VNTR region at the D11S35 locus on human chromosome 11.  The method comprises the steps of isolating the human DNA, heat-denaturing the DNA to form single strands, hybridizing synthetic DNA oligomers as described herein to the denatured DNA so as to generate primer sites adjacent said (dT-dG)n regions on the DNA, amplifying the D11S35 VNTR region using the polymerase chain reaction method, and separating the amplified segments.  Different individuals exhibit distinctive allelic patterns of separated segments, which can be used to confirm identities, pedigrees, etc., and in forensic studies.  The sequences of preferred synthetic DNA oligomer primers, termed oligomers 780 and 781, have been determined and are disclosed herein.
