IPC: B65B5/10
Filed: 2000-08-31
Abstract: A device (1) for feeding tablets (3) in a blister
packaging machine (7) includes a vibrating container (8)
containing a mass (9) of tablets (3). The vibrating
container (8) features a bottom wall (11), one portion of
which is equipped with tablets (3) feeding channels (14),
communicating with related slots (15) made in the bottom
wall (11). The slots (15) communicate with the conveying
means (16), which feed the tablets (3) along a
predetermined feeding path (2) and release the tablets
(3) into respective blisters (4) of a blister band (5).
The blister band (5) moves in a determined direction (6)
inside the packaging machine (7). The conveying means
(16) include a plate (17) equipped with a plurality of
grooves (18), arranged one beside another and a covering
element (21). The covering element (21) is coupled with
said plate (17), so as to move with respect thereto and
is equipped with transversal wings (27), each of which is
situated inside a respective groove (18) of the plate
(17), so as to define a respective channel (19) for
conveying said tablets (3). At least one covering element
(21) is coupled with actuators (25) which drive the
covering element (21) to oscillate alternately with
respect to the plate (17), so as to facilitate the
tablets (3) movement along the conveying channels (19).

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for deriving accurate global positioning satellite (GPS)
timing by calibrating frame boundaries to GPS timing. Time calibration is achieved by
determining a time difference At between a reference GPS time (or pulse) and an nth frame
boundary. The time difference At and a frame boundary identifier specifying the  n th frame
boundary are provided to a device equipped with a full or partial GPS receiver so that the GPS
equipped device may synchronize itself to GPS timing. Upon synchronizing itself to GPS timing,
the GPS equipped device may search for GPS signals using information provided by a

Title: Affichages a base de fibres et leurs procedes de fabrication
Inventor: MOORE CHAD BYRON
IPC: C03B37/14
Filed: 2000-04-25
Abstract: Cette invention concerne un affichage à base de fibres composés de matrices orthogonales de fibres avec des électrodes en fil co-étirées placées entre deux plaques formant affichage. L'un des principes clés qui sous-tendent l'invention est que la totalité de la structure de chaque rangée et colonne est contenue dans chacune des fibres des deux matrices. Ainsi, la fonctionnalité toute entière de l'affichage est contenu dans chacune des fibres qui le constituent. Grâce à cette particularité, il est non seulement possible d'éliminer les opérations d'alignement multi-niveaux, mais également de réaliser des affichages à panneau plat de très grande taille. Les matrices de fibres s'obtiennent en étirant, à partir d'une préforme, une fibre sur un tambour cylindrique, puis en la retirant de ce tambour sous forme de feuilles de fibres. Les matrices de fibres sont montées entre les plaques avant mise en place d'un joint. Une technique à verre ou polymère perdu permet de déterminer avec précision la forme et la section des fibres. De par la forme de leur section, ces filtres conviennent pour des affichages à panneaux plats tels qu'affichages à émission de plasma, affichages à cristaux liquides à adressage par plasma, affichages à émission de champ, affichages réfléchissants, affichages tri-dimensionnels et affichages de vues multiples.

IPC: C02F1/72
Filed: 2001-01-26
Abstract: An integrated process for treating alkaline
wash water effluent from nitroaromatic manufacture,
principally containing nitro-hydroxy-aromatic compounds
is described. The integrated process concentrates the
alkaline wash water to recover chemicals and water prior
to treating the concentrate through supercritical water
oxidation. The supercritical water oxidation step
consists of treating the concentrate in the presence of
an oxygen source at conditions, which are supercritical
for water to cause a substantial portion of the organic
component of the concentrate to oxidize. The product
effluent includes a gaseous component and a clean water
component, and in the event that insoluble ash is formed,
an ash component. The new integrated process results in
reduced chemical and water consumption compared to
existing processes. In addition, the treated wash water
effluent can be recycled to process or directly
discharged.
