Title: Locking device
Inventor: KUNG OTTO
IPC: E05B47/06
Filed: 1997-12-08
Granted: 2006-02-14
Abstract: A locking device for a lock cylinder (12) has an electronically controlled inhibiting element (2), which in an inhibit position (x s) blocks movement of a rotor (1) relative to a stator (6) and frees the rotor (1) in a free position (x F). A drive (9) exerts a working force (F A) on the inhibiting element (2), by which inhibiting element (2) can be reversibly transferred from the inhibit position (x s) into the free position (x F) and vice versa. A guide (52-57) is connected to the drive (9) and, at least outside the free position (x F), clearly defines the position of the inhibiting element (2). A  restoring device (3) exerts a restoring force (F R) directed away from the free position (x F) on the inhibiting element (2), when that element is between the free position (x F) and a rest position (x0). I n the rest position (x0) and in positions between the rest position (x0) and the free position (x F), the inhibiting element inhibits movement of the rotor (1). The locking device is resistant to external, undesired vibration and/or shock effects or magnetic action.

Abstract: A row of (n + m) powder containers which contain powder for chromatography and a row of (n + m) solvent containers which contain solvent for partition are arranged closely in parallel to each other. 0): A predetermined quantity of sample solution is added to the m-th solvent container from the left. 1): The powder containers and the solvent containers of the same numbers from the left in the rows are coupled with each other to form a row of (n + m) pairs of the powder containers and the solvent containers. 2): The powder and solvent of each pair are mixed and stirred until components to be separated come into partition equilibrium. 3): The powder and solvent of each pair are separated and made to exist in the original containers of each pair. 4): The pairs are decoupled to form the row of the powder containers and the row of the solvent containers again, and the rows are shifted from each other by one container in the opposite directions alternately. The steps 1) -4) are repeated, completing one process composed of the steps 0) - 4) + steps 1) -4). The process is repeated. Each time the rows are shifted, the leading container containing separated sample component is removed, and a new container is added to the rear of the row to keep the number of containers in the row constant.  By this method, the samples can be separated by relatively small number of partition equilibrium steps.

Abstract: Linear drive apparatus and process of using the same. The apparatus includes a movable device and a first high-speed thrust device coupled to the movable device. The first high-speed thrust device exerts an acceleration force on the movable device to move the movable device from a ready position. A movable retaining device is coupled to the movable device, so that the retaining device is adapted to hold the movable device in the ready position against the acceleration force. A release of the movable retaining device triggers immediate movement of the movable device via the acceleration force.  The process includes positioning the movable device in an idle position, holding the movable device in the idle position with the retaining device, exerting an acceleration force on the movable device while it is being held in the idle position, and releasing the movable device from the idle position by moving the retaining device. In this manner, the acceleration force moves the moving device.

Abstract: An assembly for mounting a tablet to the support of a seating assembly includes inner and outer mounting collars which are attached to the tablet support. The inner and outer mounting collars define a passage within which a connecting shaft is supported. The connecting shaft extends from a hinge mechanism connected to the tablet. The connecting shaft includes a radially extending key member. The inner and outer collars form a shaft retaining structure which supports the connecting shaft for pivotal movement and also provides a chamber that accommodates rotation of the key member along an arcuate key path between a front key stop and a rear key stop.  This mounting assembly provides two-dimensional rotational movement for the tablet arm, and provides convenient and quiet movement of the tablet arm from a lowered, stored position to a raised, vertical intermediate position and to an operative raised, horizontal position.

Title: Log cutting procedures
Inventor: RAWLEY BRIAN ANDREW
IPC: G01N29/46
Filed: 1999-08-17
Granted: 2008-07-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a single end testing of stems of felled trees whereby by inducing a sonic wave with an impact and by reference to detected reflections and with a knowledge of the length of the stem the stiffness and/or strength characteristics of the stem or logs to be cut therefrom can be derived. A preferred procedure is a determination of the fundamental frequency f0 which relates to velocity V, the speed of longitudinal compressional motions along the stem, and L, the length of the stem, as follows: V=2Lf0. From that value V or a function of V can be derived an indicator of stiffness and/or strength. For example the modulus of elasticity (MOE) is such an indicator and can be determined by the equation MOE=~ V2 where ~ is density. For green felled timber ~ can be estimated as approximating 1000 kg/m3.
