Title: Flush-closing window for motor vehicles and method, guide track system and pin assembly therefor
Inventor: DRUDGE BRUCE L
IPC: B60J1/12
Filed: 2008-06-13
Abstract: A multi-pane flush closing window assembly for a vehicle includes any one of a combination of fixed sub-assemblies and/or sliding sub-assemblies supported by a frame.  The sub-assemblies may be conveniently assembled and disassembled from the frame without removing the frame or window securing structure from the vehicle. Man hours, tooling, and costs associated with flush window assembly and repairs are reduced as a result. The fixed sub-assembly has a sash, and removable fasteners extend through the peripheral edge of the sash into the interior side of the frame. The sliding sub-assembly is removably secured to the frame by an improved multi-piece guide track and slide pin assembly. The slide pins are removably secured to opposite sides of the sliding sub--assembly. A lock nut or coil spring provides a means for adjusting the slide pin so that the sliding sub-assembly assumes an optimal flush fit with the frame and the fixed sub-assembly.  The guide track includes a lead section, a tail section with a stop, a middle track section, and an end track section each individually fastened to the interior wall of the frame. The lead and tail sections have shaped channels formed in them for directing movement of the sliding sub-assembly relative to the fixed sub-assembly. The middle and end sections connect the lead and tail sections to accommodate multiple slide travel lengths for any window size. The guide track sections, the slide pins, and thus the sliding sub-assembly may be conveniently assembled and disassembled from the frame without removing the frame or window securing structure.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses of detecting the beginnings and endings of scenes in video media, especially videotapes of "Reality TV" scenes, are disclosed. The video medium defines array of pixels, and comprises a sequence of video frames. Each frame has a set of pixel data values for representing an image, with each pixel data value being associated with a pixel. Exemplary methods and apparatuses select a plurality of video frames from the video medium, and obtain the pixel data values of a subset of pixels of each selected frame. The pixel subsets o at least one pair of successive frames have a difference in the selection of pixels. A dispersion signal representative of the dispersion in the obtained pixel data values over a set of sequential frames is generated, and a signal is generated to indicate an end of a scene when the dispersion signal falls below a threshold level.

Inventor: HIRANAKA SHINGO
IPC: B09B3/00
Filed: 2007-02-05
Abstract: A stripping liquid which is for use in stripping the paper from a plaster/paper laminate such as a waste plasterboard and comprises an aqueous solution of an alkali metal or ammonium carboxylate. This stripping liquid is supplied to a surface (paper surface) of the plaster/paper laminate to infiltrate it into the bonding interface between the plaster and the paper.  The carboxylate is thus caused to be present at the bonding interface. The paper is stripped off in the presence of this carboxylate, whereby the paper can be entirely separated from the plaster. Furthermore, by incorporating a nonionic surfactant or a water-soluble organic solvent into the stripping liquid, the stripping liquid can be rapidly infiltrated without fail into the bonding interface between the plaster and the paper.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of dry powder formulations, doses of which are measured out and placed into receptacles such as blisters or capsules, to be dispensed by a dry powder inhaler device (DPI). In particular, the present invention relates to methods of agitating a dose of a dry powder formulation to ensure that any compacted powder is broken up. It is easier to extract a loose powder from a receptacle than it is to extract powder which is compacted and so ensuring that the powder in a receptacle is not compacted can, in turn, lead to improvements in the administration of the powder formulation to the lung of the patient.
