Patent AU-583742-B2 (AU)
Title: Process for increasing the energy input in electric arc furnaces
Inventor: BROTZMANN KARL
IPC: F27B3/10
Filed: 1987-08-26
Granted: 1989-05-04
Abstract: To save energy in the production of steel in an electric arc furnace while increasing the total input of energy, the employment of carbonaceous fuels and oxygen-containing gases is proposed. The oxygen or the oxygen-containing gases are led into the furnace in the upper part of the furnace through stationary top blow-in devices (4) into the space between the pitch circle of the electrodes (10) and the furnace wall (3). The resulting intense gas flow repeatedly sucks in the reaction gases arising from the scrap or the melt being formed and burns them. The heat thus set free is transferred to the scrap and/or the melt with a thermal efficiency of at least 70%. By nozzles (2) arranged below the surface of the bath, and preferably in the furnace floor, preferably oxidizing gases are led into the melt and solid materials, particularly carbonaceous fuels, are supplied to the melt through one or more hollow electrodes (6) with an abrasion-resistant cladding. With this process, increased energy input into the electric arc furnace becomes possible, and thus the melting down time can be shortened and the economy of the process improved.

Title: Fibre optic multiplexer
Inventor: SHAW HERBERT JOHN
IPC: G02B6/28
Filed: 1982-11-08
Granted: 1987-09-03
Abstract: A passive, frequency selective, fiber optic multiplexer, comprises a directional coupler in which a pair of single mode optical fibers are accurately positioned to provide evanescent field coupling, typically by polishing a portion of the cladding from each of said fibers to place the respective cores of said fibers within the evanescent field of light in the other fiber. The coupling efficiency of a coupler constructed in this manner is wavelength dependent, and provides over-coupling, that is, the capability of transferring light, virtually entirely, back and forth between the fibers within the coupler. The wavelength dependent nature of the evanescent field coupling permits multiplexing, specifically between a pair of wavelengths, one of which is coupled in its entirety from a first fiber to a second fiber, and the other of which is essentially uncoupled. By increasing the number of total transfers of the light signals between the pair of fibers, the frequency resolution of the multiplexer may be optimized for light signals of virtually any frequency separation.

Title: Clock pulse generator for PCM systems - uses auxiliary pulses as clock pulses during input pulse trains gaps
IPC: H04J3/07
Filed: 1971-04-08
Abstract: The clock pulse generator, for PCM systems, produces clock pulses from gaps in a pulse train whilst retaining the mean number of pulses per unit time. The input pulse train acts as clock pulses until a gap appears in it. At that point first auxiliary pulses are released to act as clock pulses. The auxiliary pulse frequency is chosen to be less than the input train's frequency such that each 360 dec. phase jump occuring at each gap can be compensated before the next gap appears. When the phases of input and auxiliary pulses again coincide the input pulse train is again used as the clock pulses.

Title: Sensitive fluid contamination detector - has reduced background level by placing sample phial directly between polariser and analyser (OE 15.8.78)
IPC: G01N33/00
Filed: 1972-09-21
Abstract: The contamination analyser is designed to provide increased sensitivity by reducing the level of background noise so that even smaller concentrations may be detected. The light from a source (1) is collimated via a condenser lens (2) and iris (3) and passes through a polariser (4) to the first flask containing the fluid under investigation (5). The emergent light passes through an analyser (6) which is adjusted so that with pure, uncontaminated fluid, the plane of the polarised light is not rotated and the output of the photo-detector (7) remains at zero (dark). Contamination causes rotation of the polarised wave and the photo-detector gives a corresponding output. As there is no optical element, apart from the glass of the test phial, between the polariser and analyser, the background signals are reduced.

Abstract: A start point vicinity of an uttered input speech pattern is set. DP-matching is performed between the input speech pattern and a plurality of reference patterns obtained by connecting previously prepared reference patterns in the start point vicinity of a portion for the head word of the input speech pattern. A point within the start point vicinity is determined as a temporary start point. The dissimilarity proportional to the time length of the reference pattern is calculated and then converted into a value proportional to the time length of the input pattern from the temporary start point. The dissimilarity measure between the input speech pattern and the reference pattern on the second and the following digits are determined as a value proportional to the time length of the input speech pattern. The end time point of the input speech pattern is determined on the basis of the minimum value of a normalized dissimilarity measure and by the time length of the input speech pattern.

Granted: 1996-09-25
Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for the sustained and controlled transdermal or transmucosal delivery of active substances, consisting of an impermeable backing layer, a reservoir containing active substance, a layer which is essentially free of active substance but is permeable to active substance, and a detachable protective layer. The layer free of active substance is initially brought into contact with the active substance reservoir immediately before or after the application and then lies between the reservoir and the application surface, in which respect, in the layer free of active substance, at least some of the active substance diffusing from the active substance reservoir converts into a non-bioavailable form. The conversion into a non-bioavailable form can in this case be effected by immobilising the active substance by chemical reaction or by physical interaction.
