Inventor: BETTS ROBERT
IPC: G02B21/08
Filed: 1996-10-24
Abstract: A system enabling conversion of a conventional ringlight for differential illumination such as dark field or Rheinberg illumination is disclosed. The system comprises a ringlight having an annular light emitting portion and a hood that fits over the ringlight. The hood has an aperture and an annular reflective surface, disposed opposite the light emitting portion, that reflects the light from the ringlight through the aperture. An angle of the annular reflective surface is selected relative to a direction of light from the ringlight to form a cone of light exiting the aperture. To ensure good contrast, a light baffle in the form of a sleeve, inserted into the ringlight, may be incorporated to prevent stray light from the ringlight from directly exiting through the aperture. The differential illumination produced by the invention is applicable to machine vision applications, but also microscopy, gemology, and serology, for example.

Abstract: An apparatus for restricting pivoting of an industrial vehicle axle and maintaining the vehicle stability without sacrificing the vehicle's driving performance. Pivoting of the axle with respect to the vehicle's body is temporarily restricted in accordance with the yaw acceleration when the vehicle is turned. The acceleration value for limiting restriction is varied in accordance with the stability of the vehicle, which is determined by the state of the carried load. The limit value is relatively high when the load state causes the vehicle to be relatively stable and is relatively low when the load state causes the vehicle to be relatively unstable.

Inventor: ONEAL DEAN S
IPC: E21B33/12
Filed: 1998-11-24
Abstract: A packer is provided which reduces the number of components required in a retrievable packer. The packer is compact in size, and convenient and economical in use. In a described embodiment, the packer includes seal carrying and gripping assemblies mounted on a mandrel. Axial compression of the assemblies causes a seal and grip structures carried on the assemblies to radially outwardly deflect. Each of the assemblies may be integrally formed, thereby further reducing the number of components needed to construct the packer. Each of the assemblies is usable separately on the mandrel to produce apparatus which only grippingly engage or only sealingly engage a tubular member in a well. The packer or similar apparatus is retrieved by releasing the force axially compressing the assemblies.

Abstract: A rack for shipping articles such as automobile parts and a modular dunnage system therefor maintains the articles in a fixed, spaced relation.  The dunnage pods may be molded to compliment the configuration of the article being shipped, to minimize opportunities for jostling or shifting during transport and maximize storage efficiency. The article rack of the invention is readily adaptable to supporting articles of a specific predetermined configuration in a stable, fixed position, and can be adapted to articles of a different configuration merely by changing the dunnage pods and/or mounting members as required to suit the particular article. In the preferred embodiment the dunnage pods are hingedly mounted to the rack and pivotable between a supporting position and a rest position in which the dunnage pods are retracted toward the side rails of the rack to allow greater clearance for the loading and unloading of articles from the rack. In the supporting position each dunnage pod supports the next higher dunnage pod in the column, thus transferring the weight of the stack of articles to the floor of the rack. A  locking system comprises a cam-locked retaining bar which applies a uniform force across the top article in each stack, to retain the columns of pods in the supporting position.

Abstract: Procédé de transmission servant à effectuer une transmission à débit variable représentant une partie du traitement de bande de base dans un dispositif de transmission d'après le procédé de transmission AMDC. Une séquence d'information de transmission composée de signaux numériques est modulée en phase par une unité de modulation de phase (105).

Title: Diversity antenna system
Inventor: SPEIGHT TIMOTHY JAMES
IPC: H01Q3/26
Filed: 1999-03-09
Abstract: In order to reduce the effect of multipath propagation, diversity antennas have been proposed in which each antenna in an array has a respective branch tapped delay line in which the tap output signals are weighted and summed. The sums then need to be combined in a way that improves the signal to noise ratio.      A diversity antenna system is disclosed in which the branch weights W lS to W MS are determined for each branch by: comparing the real part of the summed tap output signals y1 to y M for the branch with a set level; ascribing a symbol value of logical zero to those summed branch tap output signals which fall to one side of the set level and ascribing a symbol value of logical one to those summed branch tap output signals which fall to the other side of the set level; calculating the mean of the levels of those signals ascribed the value logical zero and the mean of the levels of those signals ascribed the value logical one; calculating the distance between the level of each signal ascribed the value logical zero and the respective mean, and the level of each signal ascribed the value logical one and the respective mean; calculating the sum of the distances from the means; calculating the distances of the levels of all signals from the set level; calculating the sum of the distances of the levels of all signals from the set level; calculating the ratio of the sum of the distances from the means to the sum of the distances of the levels of all symbols from the set level; and setting the branch weight W 1S to W MS dependent on the inverse of the ratio.

Title: Method for cooling an arc lamp
Inventor: GIBBON MICHAEL A
IPC: F21V29/60
Filed: 1999-03-31
Abstract: A xenon arc lamp for a motion picture projector is cooled by providing the anode end of the lamp with a shroud that forms part of a support for that end of the lamp. Cooling air flows into the shroud along the support arm and enters the shroud through a slot in its side wall. The shroud provides an annular air space around the anode end of the lamp and has an annular air outlet through which the cooling air leaves as a "sheet" of laminar air flow which tends to adhere to the surface of the bulb, thereby providing precise cooling. In this way, arc instability is avoided or minimized, while lamp life is extended.
