Abstract: The textile article, such as a protective hood (1) with holes (6, 7, 8) for the wearer's eyes and mouth, is knitted on a straight machine with two sections for making the front and rear surfaces simultaneously. In each of the sections only one needle in two is used for actually knitting the stitches, while the others are used only in operations needed for making the eye and mouth holes. The lower edge (6', 7', 8') of each hole is made by a chain on a number of stitches that prevents the edge from unravelling. The sides (6, 7, 8) are made by knitting semi-circular stitches for a given number of rows, and the upper edges (6', 7', 8') are made by resuming full row knitting.

Abstract: A blank for a rotary tool for chip removing machining, such as a helix drill or an end mill is formed by advancing a mixture of hard metal powder and carrier through an extrusion passage. The mixture is fed past a core having pins secured thereto for forming respective internal holes through the mixture. Then the mixture is advanced through a rotary part that is rotating about a center axis of the extrusion passage, wherein the rotary part and the internal holes become twisted to a predetermined pitch. The mixture is also advanced past a plurality of shaping parts which project transversely into the extrusion passage for shaping exterior chip flutes in the mixture, e.g., by embossing or cutting. The mixture is allowed to harden into a green body, and the green body is then sintered to form a blank.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for analysing an input signal having an input frequency bandwidth. The method comprises providing at least one frequency-bandwidth limited portion of the input signal. For each frequency-bandwidth limited portion of the input signal the durations of half-periods and signal excursions during respective half-periods are determined. Based on the signal excursions and corresponding half-periods a quality of the input signal is determined. The determined signal quality can be a vowel in a 10 speech signal or a quality related to a condition of an industrial product. The method provides speaker independent vowel recognition, and even whispered vowels can be recognised.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing a mixed formulation of sustained release microspheres with various compositions by a continuous one-step process. The present method is characterized by preparing the mixed formulation of sustained release microspheres with different compositions by a continuous one-step process by continuously introducing the mixed fluids into a dryer from the two or more different fluids for preparation of sustained release microspheres containing a biodegradable polymer, a drug, an additive and a solvent with different types of contents or both of the components, by controlling the mixing ratios of the fluids according to the time, unlike a conventional method including spray-drying a mixture of microspheres containing a biodegradable polymer, a drug, an additive and a solvent with a single composition. The present method can achieve a desired drug release, which is difficult to be obtained by conventional microspheres with a single composition, by preparing microspheres by a continuous one-step process, and can simplify the conventional complex process of separately preparing several microsphere formulations and then mixing the formulations at a proper ratio to achieve a desired drug release.

Abstract: Corrosive amine salts in hydrocarbon streams such as desalted crude oil streams can be prevented or avoided by adding certain amine scavenging chemicals to the streams. Suitable amine scavengers include, but are not necessarily limited to, carboxylic anhydrides and copolymers of carboxylic anhydrides, aromatic anhydrides, isocyanates, polyisocyanates, and epoxides. The non-corrosive reaction products of the amines and/or ammonia with these scavengers are preferably oil-soluble, non-basic and thermally stable. The amine scavengers bind up and react with the amines and/or ammonia to keep them from reacting with materials such as acids (e.g. HCl) to form corrosive amine salts.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for operating a monitoring unit operable to receive signals from a mobile transmitter in an electronic location monitoring system involves causing a first receiver to change a signal reception threshold thereof for receiving signals from the mobile transmitter, in response to proximity of the monitoring unit relative to a reference position whereby the receiver rejects signals received from the mobile transmitter that have a signal strength below the signal reception threshold and receives and processes signals received from the mobile transmitter that have a signal strength above the signal reception threshold. Alternatively, detection of a first monitoring unit in proximity to a second monitoring unit may cause the second monitoring unit to take over receiving signals from the mobile transmitter while the first monitoring unit is put into a low power mode.
