Patent EP-1038561-A2 (EP)
Inventor: RICHARDSON EWART
IPC: A63J1/02
Filed: 2000-03-23
Abstract: Apparatus for supporting scenery in a stage
structure is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an
elongate member (18), commonly known as a flying bar,
suspended substantially horizontally above a stage and
from which scenery items can be suspended. A winch
system is used to raise and lower the flying bar. A
substantially vertical guide rail (26) is mounted
above the stage adjacent each end of the flying bar
(18). A chain (28) is freely slidable within each
guide rail (26), the lower end of the chain being
rigidly secured to one end of the flying bar (18).
The links of the chain are configured to permit the
chain on one side of the stage to bend towards the
opposite side of the stage and to prevent bending in
the opposite direction. Thus, the apparatus provides
an improved method for guiding and stabilising flying
bars and scenery items. It substantially eliminates
any side to side motion of the flying bar and allows
it to be raised and lowered as desired during a
performance without the need for any manual
intervention to align the flying bar with the guide
rails.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à une technique permettant d'accroître le rapport signal/bruit effectif (SNR) d'un signal de porteuse dont le SNR empêche la transmission d'un bit d'information complet d'un train binaire en entrée à un certain taux d'erreur binaire lors d'une période de symbole unique. L'accroissement du SNR du signal de porteuse repose sur la modulation d'un même bit d'information du train binaire en entrée durant des périodes de symbole successives. Cette modulation durant des périodes de symbole successives permet d'atteindre le taux d'erreur binaire du signal de porteuse. Ce dernier est démodulé pour des périodes de symbole successives et ce, afin d'obtenir une information partielle relative au bit d'information. On combine cette information partielle pour produire un bit d'information complet.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for measuring a load of a hoisting apparatus (1),
where electricity is used as the driving force and a squirrel cage motor as the
hoisting motor (2) for moving a load (7) attached to a hoisting member (5) of the hoisting
apparatus (1) substantially in the vertical direction. The method and arrangement
are employed to determine air gap torque of the hoisting motor (2), which describes
the load of the hoisting apparatus (1), utilizing magnetization flux of the
hoisting motor (2) determined on the basis of the current, supply voltage and stator
winding resistance of the hoisting motor (2). The value of the air gap torque is
compared with an air gap torque curve determined for the hoisting apparatus (1)
at known reference loads to determine the load that corresponds to the air gap
torque in question.

Abstract: The gas driven oscillator 10 employs as its main part an engine 11 having a
casing 12 and a pair of expansion chambers 13 and 14 on either side of a floating
piston 15 adapted to reciprocate within the cylinder 12. The piston is mounted on a
piston rod 16 extending through the cylinder 12 and into a compressor 17, the
compressor 17 having a cylinder 18 and a piston 19 mounted on the piston rod 16 to
move in concert with the piston 15. An air storage tank 20 holds compressed air
typically at a pressure between 100psi to 300psi. The compressed air in tank 20 can
be generated using a compressor located upstream. The upstream compressor can be
driven by any suitable means including electric motor, internal combustion engine,
windmill or the like. A valve 21 downstream of the tank 20 controls delivery of the
compressed air from the tank 20 to the engine 11 via a pair of valves 22 and 23 with
the valves 22 and 23 being mounted on an adjustment screw and slidably disposed on
the piston rod 16. The spacing between the valves 22 and 23 can be adjusted in order
to vary the amplitude of the piston 15 within the cylinder 12. The valves can be moved
in opposite directions and an equal amount. The piston rod 16 includes spaced slots
24 and 25 which alternately align with passages inside the respective valves 22 and 23
to deliver a pulse of compressed air from the tank 20 to the respective chambers of the
cylinder 12 at each movement of alignment. The piston 15 oscillates according to an
amplitude set by the spacing between the valves 22 and 23. The valves 22 and 23 are
mounted on the adjuster screw 26 so they can be moved together or apart as desired.

Abstract: This invention relates to a tool for pre-cutting the
tenderloin in carcasses which are conveyed on a
slaughter line suspended in gambrels or hooks, where
the abdomen and breast have been cut open, the hams
divided and the fat end loosened, in connection with
the evisceration of the carcasses. The tool comprises
a knife (31) with a profiled blade (40). There is

holder (32) with a drive unit (33) by means of which
unit the knife can be moved between an advanced and a
retracted position in relation to the holder (32), and
a device (39) attached to the holder which device is

holder in a mainly vertical direction. In a method for
pre-cutting the tenderloin, the knife is moved in
against the spinal column of the carcass, until the
knife has cut into the fleshy and connective tissue on
two sides of the spinal column. The knife is then
moved along the spinal column in the direction of the
carcass head, while being pressed against the spinal
column, and the movement along the spinal column
continues until the tenderloin is pre-cut.

calculates the index of follicle growth of an examinee from the measured
bioelectrical impedance value and at least one parameter pertaining to the
physique of the examinee, and compares the calculated index of follicle
growth of the examinee with the index of follicle growth as a reference which
corresponds to the number of passed days of a menstrual cycle to estimate
