Inventor: HAKKA LEO ERNEST
IPC: C01B17/60
Filed: 1989-11-08
Granted: 1992-06-25

Title: Vinyl acetate catalyst preparation method
Inventor: NICOLAU IOAN
IPC: C07C67/04
Filed: 1993-10-08
Granted: 1995-06-01
Abstract: A method of preparing a catalyst particularly useful in the reaction of ethylene, oxygen and acetic acid in the vapor phase to form vinyl acetate comprises impregnating a porous support with water soluble salts of palladium and gold, fixing the palladium and gold on the support as water insoluble compounds by immersing the impregnated support in a reactive solution and tumbling the impregnated support in the reactive solution for at least 1/2 hour to begin precipitation of the insoluble compounds and completing precipitation of the insoluble compounds on the support and reducing the insoluble compounds to free palladium and gold. The catalysts prepared in this manner have been shown to provide improvement with respect to reduced selectivity to CO2 during the vinyl acetate forming reaction.

Title: High speed milling cutter
Inventor: HUGHES RALPH W JR
IPC: B23C5/22
Filed: 1999-08-03
Granted: 2002-01-03
Abstract: A milling cutter using a wedge to secure an insert within a pocket of the milling cutter wherein the wedge is tapered in both the axial direction and the radial direction. A screw urges the wedge within a tapered cavity to press the insert within the pocket along the axial wedge angle while rotation of the cutter creates centrifugal forces urging the wedge radially outward, thereby forcing the wedge against the radial wedge surface to further compress the insert within the pocket. The insert pocket may be extended to radially encompass the insert, thereby providing additional support against centrifugal forces for the insert.

Patent AU-761976-B2 (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for bandwidth allocation
Inventor: STANWOOD KENNETH L
IPC: H04W28/20
Filed: 2000-05-19
Granted: 2003-06-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for requesting and allocating bandwidth in a broadband wireless communication system. The method and apparatus includes a combination of techniques that allow a plurality of CPEs to communicate their bandwidth request messages to respective base stations. One technique includes a “polling” method whereby a base station polls CPEs individually or in groups and allocates bandwidth specifically for the purpose of allowing the CPEs to respond with bandwidth requests. The polling of the CPEs by the base station may be in response to a CPE setting a “poll-me bit” or, alternatively, it may be periodic. Another technique comprises “piggybacking” bandwidth requests on bandwidth already allocated to a CPE. Currently active CPEs request bandwidth using unused portions of uplink bandwidth that is already allocated to the CPE. The CPE is responsible for distributing the allocated uplink bandwidth in a manner that accommodates the services provided by the CPE.

Title: A near infrared laser absorbing coating and method for using same in color imaging and proofing
Inventor: FOLEY DIANE M
IPC: G03F7/36
Filed: 1994-11-25
Granted: 1997-09-25
Abstract: A laser imaging material which can be effectively employed for color printing and proofing comprises a near infrared transparent support film which has a near infrared absorbing layer thereon. The absorbing layer contains at least one sensitizer which is absorbent at a desired near infrared laser output wavelength and a decomposable binder. Laser radiation at the desired wavelength which acts upon the absorbing sensitizer causes rapid partial decomposition of the binder into gaseous and non-gaseous products. The rapid expansion of the heated gases causes ablation of inert materials from the surface of said layer onto a receptor sheet thus producing an imaged film (i.e., the laser imaging donor material) and a color print or proof (i.e., the receptor sheet) of reversed sign to the imaged donor material.

Title: Earth fault monitoring circuit for DC systems - employs AC bias applied to each pole through diodes
IPC: H02H3/16
Filed: 1968-10-01
Abstract: An a.c. bias voltage is applied to each pole of the d.c. system (1) through an individual resistor (6) and non-linear element (2), preferably a reverse biased diode. The common point of the two resistor-diode circuit is connected to the secondary of an isolating transformer, and from thence via an indicator, typically a polarised relay, to earth (5). The circuit permits ready detection of earth faults over a wide range of fault impedances, and can also discriminate between symmetrical and asymmetrical conditions. The circuit normally passes no current through the resistor (6). The response of the detector is largely independent of the fault impedance.
