Title: Method and device for determining the position of the tibial protrusion point of the anterior cruciate ligament
Inventor: GIORDANO NICOLA
IPC: G01S17/87
Filed: 2002-09-27
Abstract: In order to establish an optimum position on the upper side of the tibia for the exit point of an anterior cruciate ligament replacement, it is proposed that, with the leg bent, the position of a number of points along the front edge of the notch is detected and in this way their position and progression on the femur are also determined, that, with the leg straight, the course of this front edge of the notch is projected onto a projection plane which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tibia in the region of the upper side of the tibia, and that, within the region enclosed by this projected curve, the exit point is selected such that it maintains at least a distance corresponding to the radius of the implant from the projected curve. Furthermore, an apparatus for carrying out such a method is proposed.

Title: Control method for mixed refrigerant based natural gas liquefier
Inventor: KOUNTZ KENNETH J
IPC: F04C28/06
Filed: 2002-11-08
Abstract: In a natural gas liquefaction system having a refrigerant storage circuit, a refrigerant circulation circuit in fluid communication with the refrigerant storage circuit, and a natural gas liquefaction circuit in thermal communication with the refrigerant circulation circuit, a method for liquefaction of natural gas in which pressure in the refrigerant circulation circuit is adjusted to below about 175 psig by exchange of refrigerant with the refrigerant storage circuit. A variable speed motor is started whereby operation of a compressor is initiated. The compressor is operated at full discharge capacity. Operation of an expansion valve is initiated whereby suction pressure at the suction pressure port of the compressor is maintained below about 30 psig and discharge pressure at the discharge pressure port of the compressor is maintained below about 350 psig. Refrigerant vapor is introduced from the refrigerant holding tank into the refrigerant circulation circuit until the suction pressure is reduced to below about 15 psig, after which flow of the refrigerant vapor from the refrigerant holding tank is terminated. Natural gas is then introduced into a natural gas liquefier, resulting in liquefaction of the natural gas.

Title: Method and device for the rapid, pattern-recognition-supported transcription of spoken and written utterances
Inventor: THELEN ERIC
IPC: G10L15/24
Filed: 2003-01-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the transcription of spoken and written utterances. To this end, the utterances undergo speech or text recognition, and the recognition result (ME) is combined with a manually created transcription (MT) of the utterances in order to obtain the transcription. The additional information rendered usable by the combination as a result of the recognition result (ME) enables the transcriber to work relatively roughly and therefore quickly on the manual transcription. When using a keyboard ( 25 ), he can, for example, restrict himself to hitting the keys of only one row and/or can omit some keystrokes completely. In addition, the manual transcribing can also be accelerated by the suggestion of continuations ( 31 ) to the text input so far ( 30 ), which continuations are anticipated by virtue of the recognition result (ME).

Filed: 2003-05-15
Abstract: The pouring closure ( 1 ) for liquid packagings ( 2 ) comprises a pouring stem ( 9 ) with a radially projecting bottom edge ( 12 ) and a threaded cover ( 11 ). Threaded cover ( 11 ) has a larger diameter than pouring stem ( 9 ), and an elastically deformable ring element ( 10 ) is disposed between pouring stem ( 9 ) and threaded cover ( 11 ). The ring surface ( 13 ) of the ring element runs obliquely to the ring plane, with the inner ring edge ( 14 ) ending in an downwardly directed projection ( 15 ) which can be clipped over pouring stem ( 9 ). The outer ring edge ( 16 ) ends in an upwardly directed projection ( 25 ), which is provided with an outer thread ( 26 ) for screwing on cover ( 11 ). The ring element ( 10 ) can be elastically deformed to spring into two stable states, namely and firstly, into a state with the ring surface ( 13 ) sloping downwards from the inner ( 14 ) to the outer ( 16 ) ring edge. In this state, the pouring closure ( 1 ) is compressed, and less than 5 mm high. In the other state with the ring surface ( 13 ) rising upwards, the pouring closure ( 1 ) is around three times higher and ensures the liquid can be reliably poured out beyond the 5 mm high rim ( 6 ) of liquid packaging ( 2 ), which is positioned approximately 11 mm distant from pouring stem ( 9 ).

Title: System and method for using packed compressed buffers for improved client server communications
Inventor: BONILLA NICOLE A
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 2003-10-28
Abstract: A method of batching multiple sets of responses on a server and sending the responses to a client in a single batch (i.e., a "chained" or "packed" batch). The sets of responses may be each be obfuscated and/or compressed. Once the batch is received by the client, each set is processed individually. The client may be configured to communicate the size of an uncompressed set of responses that it can handle. The server may use this information to create sets of responses that are the correct size, and may or may not compress the sets of responses. The server may chain the sets of responses and may continue to chain sets, compressed or not, until the server's buffer is full or close to full. The chained set of responses may then be sent to the client, and may process each of the sets of responses individually.

Title: Method for the treatment of triazine-containing water of a melamine plant
Inventor: WEISS PETER
IPC: C07D251/60
Filed: 2005-10-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for treating triazine-containing water of a melamine plant. The method is characterized in that the water containing ionic and non-ionic triazines in a dissolved form is fed to at least one membrane filtration unit, the water is separated into an ionic triazine-rich fraction and a non-ionic triazine-rich fraction in the membrane filtration unit, whereupon the ionic triazine-rich fraction is discharged and the non-ionic triazine-rich fraction is redirected into the melamine plant. The inventive method allows a great portion of the melamine contained in the triazine-containing water to be redirected into the process while the yield is increased along the entire melamine process. Furthermore, the need for fresh water in the wet part of the melamine plant is decreased. The disclosed method can be carried out continuously and in liquid phase.
