Title: System for controlling warp feed in loom
IPC: D03D49/20
Filed: 1989-12-28
Abstract: A take-up rate and a let-off rate in warp feed on a loom 
are controlled while a displacement of a cloth fell position 
is taken into account. The system comprises a cloth 
fell position compensation circuit (2) which outputs a cloth 
fell compensation signal to compensate a displacement of 
the cloth fell position when a weaving condition such as a 
target weft density, a target warp tension or the kinds of 
weft and warp yarns is changed. The cloth fell compensation 
signal is added to a basic warp feed rate obtained from 
target weft density, so that the displacement motion of the 
cloth fell is completed in a shorter time. According to 
this compensation, a weft density of a resultant fabric rapidly 
coincides with the target weft density.

Title: Dentifrice compositions
IPC: A61P1/02
Filed: 1989-10-11
Abstract: The problem of formulating a dentifrice which is compatible with a bis-biguanide anti-bacterial agent, for instance chlorhexidine or alexidine, is solved by using a nonionic thickening agent; a nonionic surfactant; and an abrasive which is either a sparingly soluble salt, for instance calcium carbonate, (used in combination with an agent to suppress anion formation), or an essentially insoluble compound, for instance, a silica of low anion content, or a mixture thereof. Preferably, the composition has a flavour which is mainly aniseed, balanced by mints. Preferably during the preparation of a silica containing dentifrice, chlorhexidine and saccharin are added together at an early stage, prior to the addition of silica, to avoid the formation of lumps. Such dentifrices are useful in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of periodontal disease and caries.
Patent EP-0375144-A3 (EP)
Title: Interlocking computer systems
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1989-11-10
Abstract: To enable assigning of disk drives associated with both a host 
computer and a remote computer coupled together by a communication 
link using normal DOS driver letters, DOS initialisation of the host 
computer is postponed until a remote session is established with the 
remote computer and the remote computer provides information 
regarding the disk drives associated therewith. Upon receiving the 
disk drive information from the remote computer, the host completes 
its initialisation and assigns drive letters associated with diskette 
drives associated with the host computer to diskette drives 
associated with the remote computer. Thus, host diskette drives are 
logically replaced by remote diskette drives. Any hard disk drives 
associated with the remote computer are assigned the next available 
drive letter on the host computer. Thus, the host computer and the 
remote computers become tightly coupled in that a user of the remote 
system has access to the diskette drives and any hard disk drives on 
the remote computer and any hard disk drives on the host computer.

Patent EP-0402834-A3 (EP)
Title: Circuit for monitoring the voltage of a selected dc power supply in a redundant power supply system
IPC: H02J1/10
Filed: 1990-06-11
Abstract: Two power supply devices (GR1, GR2) are provided, one (GR1) of which supplies the loads (MC1 to MCn), while the other (GR2) is used as a spare for the failure of the first device. The two power supply devices are at the same reference potential on the output side. The positive terminal of the spare power supply device (GR2) is connected to the anode, and the positive terminal of the supplying power supply device (GR1) to the cathode of a diode series circuit (D2 to D5). Only when the voltage of the supplying power supply device falls below that of the spare power supply device (GR2) by a minimum amount, defined by the forward voltage of the diode series circuit (D2 to D5), does a voltage drop occur on the diode series circuit which is sufficient to switch on an electronic switch (OPK0). In this case, the electronic switch triggers a disturbance report (SS) and, via an electromechanical switch (UR) permits the power supply devices to switch over. This electromechanical switch itself switches a latching circuit and ensures that the disturbance report (55) is maintained even after the power supply devices have switched over. <IMAGE>
Patent EP-0404117-A3 (EP)
Title: Surround-sound system
IPC: G10K15/00
Filed: 1990-06-20
Abstract: Spectral imbalance (alteration in timbre) when playing home 
video versions of motion pictures is overcome by re-equalization 
according to a unique correction response curve which compensates 
for the equalization for playback in large theater-sized 
auditoriums inherent in motion picture soundtracks. 
Surround-sound home playback of motion pictures is enhanced by 
employing main channel loudspeakers (10, 14) that produce generally 
direct sound fields and surround channel loudspeakers (16) that produce 
generally diffuse sound fields. In addition, the reproduced 
surround-sound channel is further enhanced by decreasing the 
interaural cross-correlation of the surround-sound channel sound 
field and by reducing comb filtering effects in the surround-sound 
channel at listening positions within the room, preferably 
by introducing slight pitch shifting in the signals applied to 
multiple surround loudspeakers. Preferably, further equalization 
is applied to the reproduced surround channel to compensate for 
the differences in listener perceived timbre between the 
surround-sound channel and the main channels.

Title: Method for information communication between concurrently operating computer programs
IPC: G06F17/22
Filed: 1990-01-11
Abstract: A method of communication in a computer system is 
provided for transferring information between multiple, 
concurrently operating programs, each of which may have 
a respective window display. The user communicates with 
each of the application programs through the window 
display as well as through an input device, such as a 
mouse or keyboard. A list of information codes is 
registered with a dispatcher program for each of the 
application programs which requires data. One or more 
of the application programs generate templates which 
include data and a corresponding information code. The 
generated templates are transmitted to the dispatcher 
program. The dispatcher program then compares the 
information code in the received template to the 
registered list of information codes to find any matches 
and thereby identify the one or more application 
programs which have registered to receive the 
information in the received template. The dispatcher 
program then transmits the received template to each of 
the identified application programs. Information 
communication is therefore carried out between multiple 
operating programs without user direction for the steps 
of the communication process.
