Title: Minimum time delay filtering method for automatic voltage regulators
Inventor: MARKUS DAVID ROBERT
IPC: H02P9/30
Filed: 1992-09-29
Abstract: An automatic voltage regulator senses and controls the terminal voltage of a separately excited generator by controlling the field current applied to the field winding. In order to improve the response time of the circuit, the circuitry relies on the phasor relationships between the generator phase voltages to obviate the need for a rectification and filtering circuit, used in known AVR's. More specifically, each of the sinusoidal phase voltages is sampled and squared. The squared phase voltages are then summed together. The square root of the sum is used to provide a DC voltage signal, proportional to the terminal phase voltages VA, Vg and VC. The DC voltage signal may then be compared with a reference signal to generate an error signal for use in regulating the generator terminal voltage by controlling the field current applied to the generator field winding.

Title: Curl control of shrimp during steam cooking
Inventor: LEDET BRENT A
IPC: A22C29/00
Filed: 1993-04-02
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:    Shrimp are cooked by methods and apparatus limiting the excessive amount of curl usually incurred to produce a generally J shaped configuration after cooking. Thus, the shrimp are cooked while held in a straightened configuration to thus induce in the cooked shrimp meat forces tending to hold the shrimp in a more straightened configuration than conventionally attained. In one embodiment the shrimp are aligned on conveyor belts between pairs of laterally disposed panels normally extending from the conveying surface and critically spaced for confining the shrimp in an elongated and straightened configuration. Thus, the conveyor belt carries the shrimp through a steam cooker to produce a desired J shaped shrimp configuration having reduced curl. In a further embodiment, the shrimp are prefrozen in straightened configuration and cooking rate at the cooker is controlled to thaw and cook the outside of the shrimp while the center portion remains frozen to cause the cooked shrimp meat to induce in the shrimp forces tending to hold the shrimp in a straightened configuration, thus reducing the amount of curl as the center portion is thawed and cooked.

Title: Compact circuit breaker
Inventor: SEHMER ROBERT W
IPC: H01H9/28
Filed: 1992-12-18
Abstract: A compact circuit breaker (10) in an enclosure (24) surrounding at least one stationary contact (38) and movable contact (40). A  rotary operator (104) including rotary members (106) and a contact lever train (82) selectively causes the stationary contact (38) and the movable contact (40) to assume either a closed or an open state. A single solenoid (44) for sensing breaker current in each phase causes the rotary operator (104) to move the contacts (40) from a closed state to an open state. Additionally, the solenoid (44) for a faulted phase directly acts on a solenoid bell crank (84) to cause the contact (40) to begin to assume an open state in a trip operation, if breaker current reaches a preselected trip value in the faulted phase. The rotary operator (104) causes all contacts to move from a closed to an open position by initiating a trip operation in the contact lever trains (82).

Title: System for broadband descrambling of sync suppressed television signals
Inventor: RAISER JAMES E
IPC: H04N7/171
Filed: 1992-06-12
Abstract: A television system having sync suppression scrambling and descrambling which includes in band and out of band signaling methods.  The in band signaling method modulates the IF sound carrier of a premium video channel with timing and data pulses (Figs. 2A, 2B) while the out of band signaling method modulates the previously modulated IF sound on a separate carrier onto a separate out of band data carrier (Figs. 3A, 3B). The in band signaling method uses a descrambler which tunes a channel before demodulating the timing and data pulses from the sound carrier while the out of band signaling method tunes a selected data carrier to demodulate the timing and data pulses. In both methods, the timing pulses are used to restore the levels of the synchronization pulses in the sync suppressed video signal, and thus descramble the signal, while the data pulses are used for addressable messaging to the descrambler including authorization. The out of band descrambler provides broadband sync restoration for a particular channel and thus does not need a broadband tuner for the video signal.

Filed: 1994-02-24
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    The present invention relates to a combination closure lid and container which includes a container having a bottom, at least one side wall and a mouth around the top of the wall. Extending outwardly about the mouth is a flat flange.  Extending just beyond the outer edge of the flange and about the container is a trough.  The top outer wall of the trough joins with an outwardly protruding lip so as to produce a peripheral undercut region at the point of joinder.   The innermost reach of the undercut is located at least approximately in the plane of said flat flange.   A lid forms the closure for the mouth of the container and it conforms to (1) the undercut region, (2) the trough and (3) the flat flange.  The lid has a circumferential pre-weakened line located in the region of the lid just above the flat flange when the lid is in place on the container.  The lid also has an integral lift flap located above the flat flange in communication with the pre-weakened line.  The container and lid is dimensioned so that the lid will close the container by conformingly engaging the undercut region and the container can be uncovered by accessing the lift flap, pulling it up to at least partially sever the lid at said pre-weakened line.

Abstract: A fluid level sensing system, particularly for sensing the water level in a steam generating boiler, comprises a vessel connected to the boiler so as to contain water and steam at substantially the same level as in the boiler, a number of vertically spaced electrodes projecting into the vessel, and circuitry for measuring the electrical impedance sensed by each electrode. The circuitry, which can be multiplexed to each electrode in turn, includes a first comparator for producing an output when the sensed impedance lies between the normal maximum impedance of the water and the normal minimum impedance of the steam above the water, this output being demultiplexed to drive a vertical display to show the level of the steam/water interface. The circuitry additionally includes a second comparator for producing a further output when the sensed impedance lies below the normal minimum impedance of the water, which further output is indicative of a variety of different fault conditions and drives a fault indicator.
