IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2003-10-29
Abstract: A mobile wireless terminal (MWT) includes multiple wireless modems. The multiple modems have their respective transmit outputs combined together to produce an aggregate transmit output. The multiple modems can concurrently transmit data in a reverse link direction and receive data in a forward link direction. The MWT is constrained to operate under an aggregate transmit power limit. Each of the multiple modems has an individual transmit limit related to the aggregate transmit power limit. An MWT controller adjusts the individual transmit power limits in the multiple modems based on an aggregate transmit power limit of the MWT and respective transmit power estimates from the modems, to cause each individual transmit power limit to track a corresponding individual modem transmit power.

Title: Multiple nano-spray delivery system for faims
Inventor: GUEVREMONT ROGER
IPC: H01J49/40
Filed: 2005-05-17
Abstract: An apparatus for multiple nano-spray delivery of a sample to FAIMS analyzer includes a micro-machined ionization source having a plurality of discrete nozzles. At least some of the discrete nozzles of the plurality are aligned one each with an ion inlet of a plurality of discrete ion inlets of the FAIMS, so that ions produced at different discrete nozzles are introduced into different portions of the FAIMS analyzer region.  The ions that are introduced via each ion inlet are at least partly separated prior to adding/mixing with the ions introduced via other ion inlets. This reduces the problems of ion-ion electric repulsions that occur when ion density is high.

Title: Materials, equipment, and methods for manufacturing cigarettes
Inventor: OGLESBY ROBERT LESLIE
IPC: A24C5/00
Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: Cigarettes are manufactured using modified automated cigarette making apparatus. Those cigarettes possess smokable rods having paper wrapping materials having additive materials applied thereto as patterns. The additive materials, which can have the forms of liquid or paste formulations (e.g., aqueous formulations incorporating starch or modified starch), are applied to a continuous paper web on the cigarette making apparatus. The formulation is applied to the paper web using application apparatus possessing rollers. For example, additive material is applied to the roll face of a transfer roller due to roll interaction of that transfer roller with a pick-up roller; roll interaction of the transfer roller with an application roller causes transfer of the additive material from the transfer roller to the application roller;  and additive material from the application roller is transferred to the paper web that passes between the application roller and a back-up roller. The garniture components of the automated cigarette making apparatus, including a finger rail assembly and an entrance cone, can be modified to include air flow distribution to prevent the paper web and the additive material from contacting the finger rail. A radiant dryer is used to dry the additive material that has been applied to the paper web. The radiant dryer is located on one component of a two component assembly that is used to manufacture cigarettes. A first component of the two component assembly provides a source of paper web, applies additive material to that web in a pattern and dries the paper web; while a second component receives the paper web, supplies tobacco filler, and manufactures a cigarette rod from the paper web and tobacco filler. An alternate assembly system provides a source of paper web, applies additive material to that web in a pattern, dries the paper web, and winds the treated paper web onto a bobbin; and that bobbin is later used to provide a source of paper web on a cigarette making machine that unrolls the bobbin, receives the treated paper web from that bobbin, supplies tobacco filler, and manufactures a cigarette rod from the paper web and tobacco filler.  Spectrometric techniques are used to ensure proper registration of the additive material on the cigarette rods so manufactured, and to ensure proper quality of those cigarettes.

Abstract: A system for controlling the operation of a printing press used to apply an aqueous printable electrically conductive ink onto a substrate to create electrically conductive traces of such ink includes a probe for contacting the electrical traces and for obtaining a resistance measurement therefrom. A computer receives the resistance measurement, compares such measurement with pre-selected data correlating resistance with acceptable performance criteria for such traces, determines whether such resistance measurement signifies acceptable performance, and signals an appropriate mechanism for identifying those electrical traces which do not meet the acceptable performance criteria. Unacceptable traces are remove d from the press prior to further processing. The computer can also signal an ink replenishment or conditioning system, contained in a replaceable cartridge, to correct any abnormalities in the ink properties.
