Patent GB-2317201-A (GB)
Title: Linkage for up-and-over automatic door lock mechanism
Inventor: GOLDRING NICHOLAS KEITH
IPC: E05B53/00
Filed: 1996-09-13
Abstract: A drive arm 46 is attached to the drive means 4 of door opening and closing mechanism, which is slidably attached to an arm (48) by bolts 54,56 through slots 58,60 in the arm (48), the end of arm (48) being pivotally attached to a door attachment means 20. A latch operating member 50 is pivotally mounted on arm (48) about bolt (64) and is also slidably attached to the drive arm 46 by bolt 56 through slot 66 in the member 50, so that as the drive arm 46 is moved towards the door 8, the member 50 pivots and forces downwards a rod 52 pivotally connected to the member 50 to activate a locking mechanism 30 (see also Fig 6). Conversely, when the drive arm 46 is moved in the opposite direction, the member 50 pivots back to its original position, pulling rod 52 upwards, hence deactivating the locking mechanism 30. A spring 70 keeps bolts 56,(64) in the closest possible proximity to each other.

Title: Means of increasing capacity in cellular radio (mobile and fixed) systems
Inventor: JEFFERIES ANDREW WILLIAM
IPC: H04W16/02
Filed: 1997-08-29
Abstract: A method of arranging a plurality of directional beams in a cellular radio system having a plurality of antennas 65 each communicating over a corresponding respective cell area. Interference between geographically close cells is reduced by the method resulting in an improvement in carrier to interference ratio performance. Carrier frequencies of inner two beams 62A and 63A transmitted by antenna 65A exchange for inner two beams 62B and 63B which are transmitted in substantially the same direction by antenna 65B. This results in an improved carrier to interference performance for all four beams transmitted by the antennas. The techniques disclosed are applicable to center-excited or corner excited (tri-cellular) systems.

Title: Postage meter for printing on both sides of an envelope using an ink-jet printhead
Inventor: SANSONE RONALD P
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 1997-12-16
Abstract: Envelopes 32 are printed on both sides using an ink-jet printhead 38 opposed to a transfer roller 36. As the roller rotates, the printhead forms a reverse of a first image (e.g. a barcode) on the surface of the roller. The envelope is fed through a printing station 34 to pass between the printhead and the roller so that the envelope contacts the roller just as the image is completed on the roller. The image is then transferred from the roller to one side of the envelope as the envelope continues through the station. As the envelope passes between the roller and the printhead, the printhead is controlled to print a second image (e.g. an address) on the opposite side of the envelope.

Title: Primary gas/oil separator for a two-stage separation system
Inventor: DAY GORDON MICHAEL DORRINGTON
IPC: B04C5/04
Filed: 1998-10-13
Abstract: The primary stage of a two-stage oil separation system, which is intended for removing oil from the compressed air output of an air compressor system, includes a gas/oil separator. The separator is a cylindrical tank 36 with an inlet 48 for introducing the gas/oil mixture into the tank along a tangential path to experience centrifugal force. A barrier 56 projecting from the lower end of the tank wall intersects the tangential path of the centrifugally separated oil to direct it towards the bottom of the tank. The gas portion of the mixture exits the tank through the outlet 72 and continues downstream to a second separating stage. The recovered oil is returned to the compressor.

Patent GB-2343001-A (GB)
Title: Detecting engine cylinder misfire
Inventor: ANDREWS ERIC B
IPC: G01M15/10
Filed: 1999-10-19
Abstract: Exhaust manifold pressure is measured by a single gauge-type pressure sensor positioned in the exhaust manifold to detect misfires in all cylinders of an internal combustion engine. The pressure sensor detects the exhaust manifold pressure and feeds a signal to a microcomputer via an analog-to-digital converter. A data processing device monitors the pressure waveform created by the data from the sensor to determine if a full or partial misfire occurs. If a cylinder suffers from a partial or complete misfire, the strength of the pressure pulse for that cylinder will be reduced, thus, allowing the data processing device to identify the misfire. The data processing device may determine a misfire by computing an average peak pressure (905) for each combustion cycle, a pressure threshold (908) as a function of engine speed and fuel consumption rate, and a minimum pressure value based on the difference between the average peak pressure and the pressure threshold (909). The data processing device may alternatively determine a misfire by first computing a coefficient of variation (1010) between an observed pressure pulse and the average peak pressure and then comparing (1012) the coefficient of variation with a pressure threshold to determine if at least a partial misfire has occurred.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To prevent mis-operation by coloring and displaying the connection state of a line onto a display window in at least intermediate color of two lighting colors of each lighting color of plural light sources so as to easily identify the connecting state of a trunk line. CONSTITUTION:Two light emitting diodes 21, 22, e.g., green and red light emit ting diodes are built in one display window, the idle state of a trunk line is displayed by turning off the light emitting diodes 21, 22 on the display window, the one telephone set acquisition state is displayed by the illumination of the lighting color of the light emitting diode 21 the holding state thereof is displayed by the blink of the lighting color of the light emitting diode 21, the other tele phone set acquisition state is displayed by the illumination of the lighting color of the light emitting diode 22, the holding state thereof is displayed by the blink of the lighting color of the light emitting diode 22 and the incoming state is displayed by the blink of the intermediate color between the lighting color of the light emitting diodes 21, 22 respectively. Thus, since the display color on the display window is increased without increasing the number of the light emitting diodes 21, 22, the connecting state of the trunk line is identified easily.
