Abstract: Light from an image displayed on a display screen 10 is transmitted to an observer's eye 11 by way of a dynamic optical element 12 (such as a spatial light modulator or an electrically switchable holographic composite) which acts as a lens. The characteristics of the dynamic optical element 12 can be altered so that it acts sequentially to direct light of different colors to the observer's eye. In one optional embodiment emitters 17 on the display screen 10 emit infra-red radiation which is projected by the dynamic lens 12 as a broad wash onto the eye 11. Infra-red radiation reflected back from the eye 11 is focussed by the dynamic lens 12 onto detectors 18 also provided on the display screen 10. The detectors 18 are thus able to sense the direction of eye gaze, and the dynamic lens 12 is controlled in dependence on this to create an area of high resolution in an area of interest centered on the direction of gaze, which is moved to follow the eye gaze as its direction alters. Other than in the area of interest, the dynamic lens 12 has a relatively low resolution.

Abstract: An insert for the radial turning of grooves composed of a shank portion (2) and a cutting head (3) wherein the cutting head (3) includes an upper side composed of two inward sloping surfaces (11, 12) and two corresponding surfaces (13, 14) constituting the bottom surface as well as flank side surfaces (15, 16, 17) which extend between them. The dividing line between the upper surface and the forward flank (17) constitutes the main cutting edge (18) and the dividing lines between the upper surface and the lateral flanks constitute the side cutting edges (19, 20). The upper surface features a number of grooves (21) on each side of the inserts centre line (CL) which are separate from each other and which form a non-continuous side cutting edge (19, 20). The groove (21) is preferably V-shaped. The top side of the insert features at its forward end two protrusions (24, 25) at a distance from each other situated symmetrically on each side of the centre line (CL), the extent of which is limited by an oblique upward sloping surface and a portion of an upper planar surface. Protrusions (24, 25) are oblong in shape and are, when seen from the front surface (17) of the insert, first converging towards each other and subsequently divergent relative to each other. This geometry has resulted in an insert which is extremely well suited for the radial turning of grooves.

Granted: 2001-03-07
Abstract: A reclosable plastic bag comprises first and second opposing panels fixedly connected to each other along a pair of sides and a bottom bridging the pair of sides. The bag is provided with a reclosable zipper extending along a mouth formed opposite the sealed bottom. The zipper includes a male track with a male profile and a female track with a female profile. A slider is slidably mounted to the zipper for movement between a closed position and an open position. The male and female profiles are engaged to each other while the slider is in the closed position. The male and female profiles are disengaged from each other in response to movement of the slider to the open position. To prevent tampering with the contents of the plastic bag prior to being initially opened, the slider is initially parked in the closed position at one end of the zipper, and upper edges of the male and female profiles are detachably connected to each other, except at the one end of the zipper supporting the parked slider. The slider cannot be moved from the closed position until a one-time tamper-evident feature is broken or, alternatively, movement of the slider from the closed position will break the tamper-evident feature.

Abstract: Process for the production of polypropylene fibers from polypropylene polymers produced by the polymerization of polypropylene in the presence of a metallocene catalyst characterized by a bridged racemic bis(indenyl) ligand substituted at the proximal position. The polypropylene contains 0.5 to 2% 2,1 insertions and has a isotacticity of at least 95% meso diads and is heated to a molten state and extended to form a fiber preform. The preform is subjected to spinning at a spinning speed of at least 500 meters per minutes and subsequent drawing at a speed of at least 1,500 meters per minute to provide a draw ratio of at least 3 to produce a continuous polypropylene fiber. The draw speed and/or the draw ratio can be varied to produce fibers of different mechanical properties. Different polypropylene polymers produced by different metallocene catalysts can be used. Such fibers can be characterized by having an elongation at break of at least 100% and a specific toughness of at least 0.5 grams per denier.

Abstract: The present invention discloses improved methods of making chocolates utilizing fast and aggressive cooling to form a set chocolate, chocolate products produced using same and cooling systems and apparatuses for performing same. The resultant rapidly cooled chocolate has many improved properties including enhanced gloss, improved bloom resistance and hardness. Moreover, the rapid cooling allows for the improved retention of fine detail and/or decoration on the chocolate product. The rapid cooling can be achieved without the use of chilled plungers or cold molds, but instead utilizes increased convective heat transfer coefficients and/or lower operating temperatures. The melted chocolate composition set by the rapid cooling can be of conventional temper, low temper or ultra-low temper chocolate and still result in a stable finished chocolate product allowing for the use of lower fat content formulations.Another aspect of the invention relates to a method of using a controlled humidity environment in a rewarm zone after the cooling zone to form a thermally robust chocolate product having enhanced resistance to heat abuse, yet which still has good gloss.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de chirurgie oculaire par laser excimère à double mode. L'oeil est d'abord traité pour des défauts primaires de la cornée, à l'aide d'une tâche laser de taille fixe et importante, et les irrégularités restantes sont supprimées à l'aide d'une tâche laser de petite taille. Cette taille importante assure un traitement plus rapide, et la petite taille offre une plus grande précision pour traiter les topographies irrégulières. Ce système est, de préférence, mis en oeuvre dans un environnement présentant différentes topographies. Par exemple, un schéma de traitement faisant appel à une taille importante de tâche laser est fourni aux médecins, en fonction des données d'acuité visuelle, telles que le degré de correction dioptrique utilisé. L'effet de ce traitement est ensuite appliqué sur ordinateur et comparé à la topographie de l'oeil réel. La tâche laser de petite taille est utilisée pour retirer toutes les irrégularités restantes, produisant un schéma de traitement préféré. Ce schéma de traitement associé est ensuite distribué à un système de chirurgie ophtalmique par laser excimère qui assure l'ablation avec une tâche laser de taille importante, puis l'ablation par petite tâche laser.

Abstract: A method for measuring physical properties or characteristics of liquids uses an acoustic transfer system that utilizes Rayleigh waves. A wave guide with at least one test section formed from a solid surface made from non-piezo-electric material, contacts the liquid medium to be measured and/or a transfer system. A sender sends acoustic wave energy that includes at least one Rayleigh wave, and at least part of the acoustic wave energy leaving the sender passes at least once through a mode converter on its way to the receiver, whereby this part of its wave energy is converted at least partly from a Rayleigh wave (RW) into a volume sound wave (VW) or vice versa. The physical characteristics or physical properties of the liquid are then determined using changes of at least a parameter of the Rayleigh wave.
