Title: Dispensing and safety valve assembly
Inventor: KLARENBACH HANS WERNER
IPC: B67D1/04
Filed: 1985-04-04
Abstract: A combined dispensing and safety valve for use in syphons for foamed cream has a housing which constitutes a cover for the bottle of the syphon and receives a tiltable or reciprocable valving element of the dispensing valve. This valving element has an axial passage for the reciprocable valving element of the safety valve which opens when the pressure in the bottle reaches a preselected threshold value. The axial passage has a smaller-diameter section for the shank and a larger-diameter section for the head of the valve element of the safety valve. The seat for the valving element of the safety valve can be defined by a detachable cup of the valving element of the dispensing valve or by the surface surrounding the smaller-diameter section of the axial passage. The valving element of the safety valve is biased to its operative position by a coil spring which is installed in the larger-diameter section of the axial passage. The shank of the valving element of the safety valve carries an annular seal which contacts the internal surface of the valving element of the dispensing valve in the smaller-diameter section of the axial passage, at least while the safety valve is closed.

Title: Dismantable facade scaffold
Inventor: SCHWORER ARTUR
IPC: E04G5/14
Filed: 1997-08-01
Abstract: A dismantlable, multi-story facade scaffold is formed of at least four vertical support elements and floor plates and railing elements which are mounted thereto. An additional scaffold story is erected by coupling an additional vertical support element to an already existing one and pivotally attaching one end of a railing element thereto at a location above where the floor plate for the next story will be placed. The other end of that railing element is pivotally attached to another vertical support element. This other vertical support element is then raised, thereby pivotally moving the rail element relative to the respective vertical support element until the rail element is in a horizontal position and the vertical support element is in the vertical position. The other vertical support element is now attached to the upper end of a corresponding vertical support of the lower scaffold story. Thereafter the floor plate for the additional scaffold story is installed so that a worker stepping on the floor plate of the higher story is protected from the very beginning against falling off. The connections between the ends of the railing and the respective vertical support elements are disengageable when they are in relatively inclined positions and become locked when the railing is perpendicular to the support elements. The scaffold is dismantled by reversing this procedure.
Patent AU-4555093-A (AU)
Title: Power controller device
Inventor: DOSANI NAZIR
IPC: F24H9/20
Filed: 1993-07-12
Abstract: A power controller device (10) is provided which controls the power output to a resistive load, such as a water heater (2) or baseboard heater. The device is programmed to output predetermined power levels or to energize the load to predetermined temperatures during predetermined time intervals, thus taking advantage of times during the day when power usage is low, and minimizing usage of power during times when demand is high. A voltage detection circuit monitors the supply voltage, and can increase power or temperature to the load during times of over-voltage or can disable the load during brownout or blackout conditions. Power is reduced through a convention means such as "cycle-stealing", and power can be output to the load in fractions of the maximum output power level. When the load is first activated, power is supplied in gradually increasing levels, to avoid a sudden power surge. The power controller device (10) may control a stepper motor actuating a by-pass valve, where a water heater is provided with a heater exchanger, or otherwise actuating a mixing valve.

Patent AU-4758790-A (AU)
Title: Method of measuring the angle of inclination of trench walls
Inventor: VORLICEK KARL
IPC: G01L/
Filed: 1989-12-20
Abstract: The invention concerns a method of determining the angle of inclination with respect to the perpendicular of trench walls, in particular slit trench walls, at a particular trench depth. The angle of inclination is measured using a conventional inclinometer which is installed, together with electronic circuitry designed to generate a high-frequency signal, on a shock-proof mounting on the digging implement. During digging, a high-frequency signal with a frequency proportional to the inclinometer output signal is generated and led to a coil encircling one of the connecting elements linking the digging implement with the digging machine, so that the high-frequency signal is fed without contacts into the connecting element and is collected in the same way, without contacts, by a second coil which also encircles the connecting element encircled by the first coil, and led to an electronic processing unit where the signal is converted back into a voltage representative of the angle of inclination of the digging implement and presented on an analog and/or digital display. Also fed to the electronic processing unit are signals, from at least one other sensor, which are proportional to the length to which the connecting element(s) is/are extended and hence the depth of the trench.

Title: Method and system for notifying a caller that a cellular phone destination is available
Inventor: OKON SHMUEL
IPC: H04M3/24
Filed: 2000-06-15
Abstract: A method for connecting a caller (16) to a called destination (16) when the destination is initially unreachable comprises the steps of receiving in a communication network (14) a call origination from the caller to the unreachable destination, determining if the caller and destination are not busy and also are available to receive a call, and, when both are available and not busy, notifying the caller that the destination is available and subsequently making the connection. The system is particularly adapted for use with cellular networks wherein destination numbers are frequently unavailable because they are off, out of range, or due to insufficient network resources. The system does not rely upon cellular registration to determine if a destination is available but instead attempts to access the destination direction directly to ensure that the call can actually be completed before the caller is notified.
Patent AU-5067990-A (AU)
Title: Web rewinder having improved chop-off mechanism
Inventor: MCNEIL KEVIN BENSON
IPC: B65H20/04
Filed: 1990-03-06
Abstract: An improvement in web-converting rewinders of the type which includes a perforator cylinder, and a bedroll/chop-off roll combination (21, 23) comprising a set of chop-off blades (31, 32), some of which chop-off blades (31) are disposed on the bed roll (21), and some of which (32) are disposed on the chop-off roll (23); and in which a running web is forwarded from an unwinding parent roll, and is converted into consumer product rolls such as, for example, tear-separable multi-sheet rolls of toilet tissue or paper towels. The improvement comprises parallel-motion chop-off blades (31, 32) which can be more closely spaced than in prior art chop-off blades, and thus induce greater stretching and more positive breaking of the web; and, preferably, the chop-off blades (31, 32) are disposed to act on a longer machine-direction-length of the running web than contemporary rewinders to enable more positively inducing roll endings by breaking along transverse lines of weakening rather than by inducing ragged transverse tears of web. Such a disposition of the chop-off blades (31, 32) is said to provide a wider window in which the lines of weakening in the running web may be indexed during each roll-ending chop-off event. Such an indexed relationship between the chop-off mechanism (20) and the running web is easier to continuously maintain with such a wider window, all other factors being constant. This invention is particularly useful for webs such as creped paper which must be stretched substantially in the machine direction before they will break along transverse lines of weakening such as lines of spaced cuts or lines of perforations.

Title: Three dimensional image with picture covering and forming system
Inventor: BLAIR JUNE L
IPC: A47G1/06
Filed: 1985-11-15
Abstract: A process for producing three dimensional pictures which begins with a photograph. A mold is first sculptured by affixing a picture of the image in the photograph to a pliable mass such as clay, and then sculpturing the mass using the picture as a guide as to where to place elevations and depressions. Next, the photograph is subjected to steps which result in the removal of the backing, and the lamination of the photograph with the backing removed in plastic. Next a "Vacu-Form" machine is used to heat soften the laminated photograph and then suction pull the combination over the mold. The mold and the photograph are alligned during the pulling step and the result is that the photograph takes on a third dimension which has eleveation and depressions placed as they should be placed by reference to the image in the photograph. The result is an article which retains a third dimension with no need of any supporting materials. Optional steps involve mounting the three dimensional picture in a display device, or combining a number of the three dimensional pictures so as to form an object. As well, cosmetic materials can be applied to the three dimensional picture to improve the appearance.

Title: Method and apparatus for using full spectrum transmitted power in a spread spectrum communication system for tracking individual recipient phase time and energy
Inventor: ZEHAVI EPHRAIM
IPC: H04B7/216
Filed: 1996-01-03
Abstract: Method and apparatus for tracking the frequency and phase of signals in spread spectrum communication systems that makes more efficient use of available carrier frequency and phase information by utilizing a substantial portion or all of the energy occupying the frequency spectrum of a received carrier signal, including energy from communication signals intended for other system users. Multiple spread spectrum communication signals are input in parallel to data receivers where they are despread using preselected despreading codes at an adjustable phase angle and decoded over multiple orthogonal codes active within the communication system. Multiple decoded signals are then combined to form a single phase detection signal which is used by at least one tracking loop to track frequency and phase of the carrier signal for the received communication signals. The tracking loop generates a timing signal which is used to adjust the phase angle used during despreading. In further embodiments, the communication signals are despread using appropriate PN codes and separated into in-phase (I) and quadrature channels (Q) where data symbols are processed by fast Hadamard transformers to generate corresponding data bits. The data is formed into pairwise products between the channels and summed over multiple or all active subscriber orthogonal codes. This sum indicates a degree to which the estimated phase differs from the actual phase of received communication signals and is used to adjust the phase of application for the PN codes.
