Patent EP-1015225-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HAMILTON PETER WORTHINGTON
IPC: C09J7/22
Filed: 1997-01-08
Abstract: A substance delivery system has a three dimensional structure with outermost surface features and spaces for containing a substance. The substance has a level below the outermost surface features such that the substance is protected from inadvertent contact with external surfaces. The substance remains protected until the three dimensional structure is sufficiently deformed into a substantially two dimensional structure and the substance is thereby exposed to contact an external surface without compliance of the external surface being necessary. Deforming is preferably achieved by a compression force, wherein the outermost surface features of the three dimensional structure deform in a direction of the compression force. A method of making the three dimensional material includes the steps of coating a substance onto a forming surface, transferring the coating of substance from the forming surface to a piece of material, and forming the piece of material into a three dimensional structure on the forming surface while the substance is in contact with the forming surface.

Filed: 1998-03-27
Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a
method for separating components in a liquid specimen and
an apparatus used in said method, by which it is possible
to avoid carryover even when the specimen injector is not
washed using washing solution and also to avoid the
increase of inner pressure in column of the separation
device or ineffective separating operation even when many
liquid specimens are separated by many times using the
same separation device. In the present invention, the
liquid specimen is introduced into the separation device
from a direction opposite to eluting direction of the
separation device which retains an adsorbent, and by
separating and eluting the specimen from eluting outlet
together with the eluant, trace quantity of insoluble
substances and the specimen remained on the specimen
introducing passage can be removed by elution procedure.
As a result, it is possible to avoid carryover, to prevent
the increase of inner pressure in the column of the
separation device and to prevent ineffective separating
operation caused by clogging of the column.

Abstract: The invention provides a natural draft, gravity
feed pellet stove (10). The body of the stove is
formed by a vertical section of large diameter pipe
(12), with an air intake pipe (42) extending from the
back of the stove to below a combustion grate (62).
Pellet fuel (114) is discharged onto the grate through
a slot (64) at the bottom of a hopper (66), and the
grate is sloped so that the pellets roll away from the
slot and over the grate as they are combusted. The
combustion gasses flow into two exhaust pipes (28a,
28b) each having a diameter similar to that of the
intake pipe so as to establish a 2:1 exhaust/intake
flow ratio. Cross-drilled reburner tubes (72) are
installed across the intake ends of the exhaust pipes
to provide additional air for complete combustion. The
bottom plates (88, 90a, 90b, 92) of the storage hopper
are free from attachment along their lower edges, so
that these expand and contract on a continuous basis
with changes in the temperature of the stove; this
causes cyclical distortion of the plates which shifts
the fuel downwardly towards the discharge opening.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant d'affecter les fonctions de gestion du réseau radio dans un système de communication mobile (10) qui offre au moins deux types de services supports (14, 16). Le réseau mobile (12) diffuse un message de commande initial qui donne l'ordre à certains terminaux mobiles (20) de suspendre l'application de leurs décisions normales de gestion du réseau de terminaux radio et de prendre en compte les ordres de gestion du réseau radio émanant du réseau mobile terrestre (12). Un message de commande ultérieur peut donner l'ordre de reprendre l'application des décisions normales de gestion du réseau de terminaux radio. Par conséquent, le réseau mobile (12) peut utiliser virtuellement la même logique de commande pour l'ensemble des terminaux mobiles (18, 20) qu'il dessert, quel que soit le type de service support (14, 16) mis en oeuvre. On arrive ainsi à réduire l'interférence de signaux radio entre terminaux mobiles (18, 20) mettant en oeuvre différents services supports (14, 16).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant d'exécuter un algorithme de détermination d'un point d'effleurement réceptif à la vitesse d'approche de la butée de débrayage d'un embrayage, afin de n'exécuter l'algorithme que dans des conditions de fonctionnement sûres. L'appareil comprend un organe de commande électronique qui établit une vitesse d'approche d'engagement de l'embrayage en réponse à la valeur de la dépression exercée sur la pédale d'accélérateur du véhicule par le conducteur. La valeur du couple moteur ou d'une autre condition de fonctionnement du moteur est mesurée et comparée à une grandeur prédéterminée indicative du début d'engagement de l'embrayage. Lorsqu'une augmentation d'une grandeur prédéterminée est détectée, la position de la pédale d'accélérateur est comparée à une valeur prédéterminée. Si la pédale d'accélérateur présente une dépression supérieure à la valeur prédéterminée, le point d'effleurement est redéfini comme emplacement courant de la butée de débrayage. Si la pédale d'accélérateur ne présente pas de dépression supérieure à la valeur prédéterminée, le point d'effleurement n'est pas redéfini.

Abstract: A graphics controller produces a composite image through selecting between input image pixels, which are designated to be displayed in the same pixel location, by using a select function. The select function is computed on a pixel by pixel basis to provide a select signal that indicates which pixel should be chosen for display as the final composite image on the display screen. The select signal uses mixing key functions to determine which pixel should be passed. The results of these functions are output in the form of key codes. Key codes are combined by performing a logical AND operation between the key codes, and with a Raster OPeration (ROP) code. The ROP code designates which key code combinations are to be logically ORed together to provide an increased number of possible key combinations to determine the selection of the image to be displayed.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de télécommunication destiné à gérer les interrogations relatives à la transférabilité du numéro local (LNP) pour les appels acheminés vers les exploitants de services interurbains, par l'établissement au point de commutation des services (SSP) (fournisseur de services local) d'une liste des exploitants pour lesquels l'interrogation relative à LNP doit être effectuée par le SSP. Ainsi, les interrogations concernant les appels destinés aux exploitants figurant sur cette liste seront-elles effectuées par le SSP de départ, ou par un SSP intermédiaire, alors que les appels destinés aux fournisseurs ne figurant pas sur la liste ne feront l'objet d'aucune interrogation par le SSP de départ; ils seront, en revanche, directement acheminés à l'exploitant pour une interrogation LNP. L'un des avantages de cette invention est de permettre aux fournisseurs de services locaux d'effectuer des interrogations LNP directes pour les appels destinés à certains exploitants, et de facturer lesdites interrogations à ces derniers. Cela permet à de petits exploitants interurbains de fournir des services compétitifs sur le réseau en achetant les prestations d'interrogation LNP à des fournisseurs de services locaux. En outre, l'invention permet désormais de fournir les prestations l'interrogation LNP pour chaque appel acheminé via un exploitant de centraux interurbains (IXC) indépendant de la capacité de ce dernier d'offrir des prestations d'interrogation LNP.

Abstract: An oxygen concentrator is utilized in combination with a compressor to provide a highly enriched and compressed oxygen gas in a mobile container such as a gas cylinder. The combination and method of production provides for the facile preparation of an enriched source of oxygen for use by an ambulatory or wheelchair-confined patient. The oxygen concentrator utilizes two or more molecular sieves to provide a breathable gas of from approximately 80 to about 98 percent oxygen from atmospheric air. The oxygen-enriched gas is stored in a concentrator product tank and can be prioritized so as to supply a patient with a proper amount and concentration of oxygen and secondarily to supply any surplus or excess enriched oxygen to a compressor. The compressor utilizes multiple stages to produce the highly compressed oxygen-enriched gas and utilizes a two-part piston at low rpm to enhance low wear and low noise. The multiple pistons of the compressor can either all rotate at one RPM or in an alternative embodiment, at least a first piston can rotate at a higher RPM than any remaining pistons. Desirably, at least the initial piston of the alternative embodiment is driven by one drive shaft source with one or more other remaining pistons being driven by a second drive shaft.
