IPC: B42F7/00
Filed: 1984-01-17
Abstract: The invention is concerned with a method of and appara­
tus for manufacturing a binder defined by a pair of elongate 
supports for clamping together a plurality of sheets of paper. 
The supports are manufactured from an extruded strip. The ap­
paratus advances the extruded strip on a rail to a cutting station 
which cuts the strip into unit strips. A binder cover sheet is in­
troduced into a unit strip and the strip is pressed to secure the 
cover sheet in position. The unit strip and cover sheet are ad­
vanced to a punching station and dimpling station for the 
punching of apertures in the channel and the formation of 
dimples. The unit strip is then transferred to an index station 
where the binder components are loaded onto the unit strip. 
Two unit strips and binder covers are then shrink wrapped 
together in polyethylene film.

Patent EP-0182481-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61B10/00
Filed: 1985-10-07
Abstract: A modified spin echo sequence is employed to identify fuild 
movement in a material. The volume of interest is subject to a 
static field along one axis (Z) and an RF magnetic excitation pulse 
transverse to the static field is applied which tilts the nuclear spins 
in the volume. The tilted nuclear spins are then allowed to precess 
about the uniform static field in the presence of a gradient field 
whereby the nuclear spins become dephased. Thereafter, a spin 
echo of the static spins is created by either a 180° RF pulse or 
reversal of the gradient field. Upon refocusing of the static nuclear 
spins a restoration RF pulse is applied to realign the stationary 
nuclear spins with the static field. Nuclear spins undergoing bulk 
motion as in fluid flow will be refocused to a different phase than 
the stationary spins so that the final RF pulse will in general leave 
these residual spins with a non-zero transverse magnetic 
moment. Such residual transverse magnetic spins are then 
detected to identify the fluid movement.

Title: Apparatus and method for converting voltage to digital count
IPC: H03K7/08
Filed: 1986-09-11
Abstract: An analog-to-digital conversion technique utilizes an oscillator (6) which provides a primary oscillating signal that drives a counter (24) and that generates a derived signal having a frequency less than the primary signal. The derived signal is integrated for use in comparing against the threshold voltage defining the analog signal to be converted. The comparison of the integrated and the threshold signals provides a pulse width modulated signal which is related to the primary signal. The pulse width modulated signal gates the counter for generating a count at the rate established by the primary signal. This output can be communicated to a microcomputer or other device.

Abstract: The method comprises the steps of determining the 
separation between interference pattern planes tangent 
to surfaces separated by a desired distance which 
achieves desired optical properties at a given first 
wavelength and angular orientation of light in a 
hologram disposed on a curved surface. The angular 
characteristics of exposure to achieve this separation 
of planes in a planar analog of the desired curved 
holographic element is determined. A source is 
constructed having the desired angular exposure 
characteristics and having a second wavelength, the 
source being constructed using a pair of source sets 
which are activated in sequence to make the desired 
interference pattern while shading parts of the 
substrate. An interference pattern is recorded in a 
photosensitive substantially planar film using the 
constructed source. The developed interference pattern 
acts as a transmission hologram. The removed sensitive 
layer is then adhered to a substrate having the curved 
shape.

Title: Automatic sorting system for plastic pellets
IPC: B29B9/16
Filed: 1987-04-02
Abstract: An automated system is provided for selectively separating 
resin pellets having a gel count below a specified maximum from pellets 
having a gel count above the specified maximum, while the pellets are 
flowing in a pneumatic conveyor. The separation is based on an 
essentially continuous measurement in which a laser beam is utilized to 
detect the number of gels in a film made from pellets withdrawn as a 
sample stream from the main pellet stream. In response to the gel count 
measurement, a control signal is established that is utilized to 
manipulate a diverter valve located in the pneumatic conveyor, which 
diverts plastic pellet flow between a preferred storage means storing 
pellets having a low gel count and a secondary storage means for storing 
pellets having a higher gel count. In operation, a hold up tank is 
provided between the point from which the sample stream is withdrawn and 
the diverter valve, so that the plastic pellet flow can be delayed in the 
hold up tank for the amount of time required for the withdrawn sample 
stream to be converted into the film, whereby the gel count measurement 
is representative of the pellets passing through the diverter valve.
