Title: Latch arrangement
IPC: E05B65/12
Filed: 2004-07-06
Abstract: An automative door latch has, in one invention, a child-safety locking switch ( 102 ) using an overcentre spring ( 110 ), for exerting extra spring bias on a lock toggle lever ( 610 ) operating the interior door lock. In another invention, a mechanical cooperation between the two lock toggle levers ( 516 ) operating interior and exterior door locking ensures that manual operation of either handle, when unlocked, to cause the corresponding lever ( 516 ) to open the door or other closure, causes the corresponding pawl release assembly ( 514, 510 ) to move the other pawl release assembly ( 514, 510 ) to its unlocked, pawl-engaging position, if that other pawl release assembly had been at its locked, pawl non-engaging position. In a third invention, a motor drives the latch bolt ( 2 ) for closing the door, through two ( 907, 908 ) segment gears which mesh for only part of the turning movement of a rotary driving and indexing mechanism ( 906 ) which also operates door opening and locking. In a fourth invention, rotary drive sequence control for a rotary driving and indexing mechanism ( 906 ) is provided by a cam guide ( 930 ) and cam frame ( 950 ), the guide having endwalls and a central stop, the cam guide being shaped in the region of the end walls to guide the cam member in a unique direction through a unique loop relative to the cam guide, such that when the cam member is released from the central stop it is moveable to either end wall and then only to the central stop and not directly to the opposite end wall.

Title: Data coding
IPC: H04L/
Filed: 1986-12-01
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB87/00861 Sec. 371 Date May 31, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date May 31, 1989 PCT Filed Dec. 1, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO88/04500 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 16, 1988.A trellis coder has a convolutional encoder which has n states and can progress from a current state to a follower state depending on an input. The state progressions are selected such that they can be represented by a diagram having 90 DEG  rotational symmetry. A state transition produces via mapping means by quadrature modulation one of four output carrier signal phases, such that any three state sequence gives rise to a pair of signals having the same phase difference as the pair generated by a corresponding sequence having a position in the diagram rotated by 90 DEG  from that of the sequence in question. Input means enable a single bit data input to control the coder state progression so that a given differential output phase always corresponds to the same input bit value.

Title: Method of balancing an object which rotates about an axis
IPC: D06F33/48
Filed: 1999-10-21
Abstract: A machine is described which includes a rotating container (5), e.g. a washing machine. To balance the rotating container one or more chambers (6a to f) may be located on the outer rim of the container. These chambers may be filled with water to provide compensation for any out-of-balance forces. At least a portion of the water which is used for balancing is removed from the balancing chambers when the container no longer rotates and is stored (14) ready for use in the next operation cycle of the machine. Balancing chambers may be placed in two separate planes or in a single plane. To achieve this, each plane of balancing chambers has a separate water feed (8). The two planes of chambers may also have separate water extraction systems (9a to f). Injection of water can be triggered by the out-of-balance movement or out-of-balance forces exerted by the rotating container. <IMAGE>

Patent IT-7919251-D0 (IT)
IPC: B29C65/18
Filed: 1979-01-12
Abstract: A method of producing an endless toothed belt of synthetic or plastics material, or similar extrudable material, having a wire- or thread-like reinforcing insert which extends in the circumferential direction of the belt and having a fabric cover covering the toothed side of the belt. A finite belt strand is formed in a closed mold cavity from introduced liquid plastics material and from a fabric strip which is introduced along that shaping surface of the mold cavity which forms the toothed side of the belt strand, thus coating the toothed side of the belt strand with the fabric strip. That side of the belt strand which is remote from the toothed side of the belt is provided with a plurality of grooves extending in the longitudinal direction of the belt strand. The belt strand is then joined at its ends to form an endless ring having its grooved side turned outwardly and having its ends offset laterally relative to one another by the spacing of at least one groove, so that the grooves extend helically on the ring in the circumferential direction thereof. Beginning at one edge of the ring, a reinforcing insert which fits into the grooves is wound into the grooves. The grooved outer side of the ring is then heated in such a manner that, as a result of melting of the plastics material, the reinforcing inserts are fused into the grooves and the grooves are closed to form a smooth outer surface.
