Abstract: A physically compact, multichannel wireless communication transceiver architecture employs overlap and add or polyphase signal processing functionality, for wideband signal processing, together with a sample rate. A receiver section receives a plurality of multiple frequency communication channels and outputs digital signals representative of the contents of the plurality of multiple frequency communication channels. The receiver section contains an FFT-based channelizer that processes the digital signals output by a wideband digital receiver and couples respective channel outputs to a first plurality of digital signal processor units, which process (e.g. demodulate) respective ones of the digital channel signals and supply processed ones of the digital channel signals at respective output ports for distribution to an attendant voice/data network. On the transmit side, a transmit section contains a plurality of digital signal processors, respectively associated with respective ones of a plurality of incoming (voice/data) communication signals to be transmitted over respectively different frequency channels. Their processed (modulated, encoded) outputs are supplied to an inverse FFT combiner. The FFT combiner supplies a combined multichannel signal to a wideband transmitter which transmits a multiple frequency communication channel signal. Each of the channelizer and combiner may be implemented using overlap and add or polyphase filtering.

The anchor flaps (24, 26) are attached to the major panel (22) along perforated lines (23) that permit the anchor flaps (24, 26) and major panel (22) to be separated from one another. The divider panel (20) is scored with lines (28, 30, 32, 34, 36) that encourage bending of the divider panel (20) about axes defined by the scored lines (28, 30, 32, 34, 36). One or more apertures (37) in the major panel (22) enable a finger or fingers to be inserted to facilitate removal of the major panel (22) or the entire divider panel (20) from the carton. A carton which contains the divider panel (20) has a tear-away flap (171) which is integrally formed with an end closure of the carton and which is attached to an anchor flap of the divider panel (152). The divider panel (152) may be removed from the carton by tearing away the tear-away flap (171) from its end closure and withdrawing the divider panel (152) from the carton through the opening created by removal of the tear-away flap (171).

Abstract: A database query system includes a query assistant that permits the user to enter only queries that are both syntactically and semantically valid (and that can be processed by an SQL generator to produce semantically valid SQL). Through the use of dialog boxes, a user enters a query in an intermediate English-like language which is easily understood by the user. A query expert system monitors the query as it is being built, and using information about the structure of the database, it prevents the user from building semantically incorrect queries by disallowing choices in the dialog boxes which would create incorrect queries. An SQL generator is also provided which uses a set of transformations and pattern substitutions to convert the intermediate language into a syntactically and semantically correct SQL query. The intermediate language can represent complex SQL queries while at the same time being easy to understand. The intermediate language is also designed to be easily converted into SQL queries. In addition to the query assistant and the SQL generator, an administrative facility is provided which allows an administrator to add a conceptual layer to the underlying database making it easier for the user to query the database. This conceptual layer may contain alternate names for columns and tables, paths specifying standard and complex joins, definitions for virtual tables and columns, and limitations on user access.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une pompe à palettes comportant une soupape de régulation de débit (13), sur le piston de régulation (17) de laquelle agissent d'une part la pression d'alimentation et d'autre part la pression de sortie, ainsi que la force exercée par un ressort. Le piston de régulation (17) fait office de balance de pression et lorsque le régime de la pompe augmente, la pression différentielle sert de variable mesurée pour le débit régulé. Le débit régulé au niveau du piston de régulation (17) est introduit par l'intermédiaire d'un canal de pulvérisation (25) dans une section de répartition (20) qui communique avec des zones d'aspiration (23 et 24), par l'intermédiaire de bras d'aspiration (21 et 22). Cette invention se caractérise en ce que la section de répartition (20) et les bras d'aspiration (21 et 22) épousent la forme de l'arbre d'entraînement (12) qui sert par conséquent de diviseur de débit. De plus, le canal de pulvérisation (25) débouche dans le centre de la section de répartition (20), de manière que d'une part l'huile pulvérisée et d'autre part l'huile aspirée en supplément et acheminée par un canal d'aspiration (18), se répartissent uniformément sur les deux zones d'aspiration (23 et 24). Comme l'huile sous pression vient en contact avec l'arbre d'entraînement (12) en matériau dur et est acheminée le long dudit arbre (12) sur une partie de son trajet d'écoulement, il ne peut y avoir de cavitation ou d'abrasion dans cette zone.

Abstract: Image processing system using cameras and image processing techniques to identify undesirable objects on roller conveyor lines. The cameras above the conveyor capture images of the passing objects. The roller background information is removed and images of the objects remain. To analyze each individual object accurately, the adjacent objects are isolated and small noisy residue fragments are removed. A spherical optical transform and a defect preservation transform preserve any defect levels on objects even below the roller background and compensate for the non-lambertian gradient reflectance on spherical objects at their curvatures and dimensions. Defect segments are then extracted from the resulting transformed images. The size, level, and pattern of the defect segments indicate the degree of defects in the object. The extracted features are fed into a recognition process and a decision making system for grade rejection decisions. The locations in coordinates of the defects generated by a defect allocation function are combined with defect rejection decisions and user parameters to signal appropriate mechanical actions such as to separate objects with defects from those that are defect-free.

Abstract: A system is specified to comprise various interconnected functional modules at respective hierarchical levels. Each module represents an abstract state-based-machine. Each non-top level first module connects to a single second module at a next higher level by a transformer link from the second module for enabling a relevant change-of-state of the first module, by an observer link for a state enquiry signal from the second module, and by an event link for a solicited event signal to the second module. The first module retrosignals an internal autonomously executed step. Each non-bottom module enables one or more lower levels modules to function as such first module. A top module can exchange signals with an environment. A single step scheduler for the system renders autonomously executable each step in the first module that has been entered under control of a preconditioning transformer signal received from the second module.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for manufacturing pharmaceutical capsules use an aqueous solution of a thermogelling cellulose ether composition and use capsule body pins and capsule cap pins as molds. The method involves heating the pins, dipping the pins into the solution to cause the solution to gelatinize on the surface of the pins, removing the pins and drying the gelatinized solution on the surface of the pins to form capsule bodies and capsule caps. The capsule parts may have a thick wall and a stiffening ring and the capsule parts are removed by gripping. The invention solves the problem of cracking at the dip-line edge by breaking adhesion between the capsule part and the pin before removing the capsule part from the pin.
