Title: Fastening-type security seal
Inventor: DE LIMA CASTRO NETTO EDUARDO D
IPC: G09F3/03

Granted: 2004-07-21
Abstract: A fastening-type security seal comprises a sealing body for sealably receiving the free end of an elongated fastening portion and an identification tag, all integrated, one with the other. The identification tag is formed with a weakening line extending from a first side edge to a second side edge of the tag, dividing it into a first region on one side and a second region on the other side of the line. The identification tag is positioned between the sealing body and the fastening part so that, in use, the tag effectively forms part of fastening portion. A pulling tab is situated on the identification tag adjacent one of the ends of the weakening line, which enables one to tear the tag, thus separating the first region from the second region.

Abstract: An aerosol hazard classification and early warning network is composed of a large number of detector and analysis units, called "detector stations," which are deployed throughout a region to be warned of a potentially hazardous aerosol intrusion. Such aerosol threats may originate from fires, volcanic eruptions, or overt releases of biological and chemical agents dispersed in aerosol form. Among the former are the characteristic toxic aerosols released during refinery fires or explosions. The latter biological agents include bacterial spores, lyophilized bacterial cells, and virus preparations, whereas chemical agents might include various forms of nerve gasses and other anti-personnel gasses such as mustard, all commonly deployed in aerosol form. Each detector station contains an aerosol handling unit that samples and transfers ambient aerosol particles one-at-a-time through a light scattering chamber where each such particle is constrained to pass through a fine laser beam producing, thereby, an outgoing scattered light wave. The scattering chamber contains a plurality of scattered light detectors arranged to accept light scattered into different angular locations. The signals detected at each detector position are processed by a corresponding digital signal processing chip with the resulting set of digitized signals being transferred to an on-board central processing unit. The CPU analyzes the set of light scattering signals and identifies or otherwise characterizes each particle. The classification/identification data are then stored and, on preprogrammed command, telemetered to a remote "central station" by means of an on-board telemetry unit. The central station analyzes the sets of data received from all the detector stations and then instructs, as necessary, selected detector stations via telemetric means to change their sampling and telemetry rates. As soon as sufficient data are available, the central determines the presence, threat, extent, and progress of the aerosol cloud. These factors are then telemetrically transmitted by means of alarms and warnings sent to potentially threatened regions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An airport baggage inspection X-ray system has a detector array (D1,..The z-axis has a zero-point which defines the cartesian co-ordinate system with x- and y-axes. The advancing axis for the container under examination is parallel to the z-axis. The primary beam screen arrangement (P) only allows X-rays to pass which impinge (or almost) impinge upon the zero-point. The X-ray emitter (Q) is positioned behind the primary beam screen arrangement (P) with an extended anode. The anode beam is focused by electronic control over the full length of the electrode. The primary beam screen arrangement (P) and the X-ray emitter (Q) are symmetrical around or parallel to the y-axis in the x,y-plane. The detector array captures scattered beams within the range of interest. Two exactly facing detectors are on opposite sides of the zero point. Each array comprises between 10 and 50 elements per side, and are made of semiconductor materials, e.g. Ge, Ca, Zn,Te etc. The anode is cooled with e.g. oil or water.

Abstract: A method for automatically setting valve clearances in internal combustion engines (also known as "tappet setting" or "valve lash setting") comprises a series of steps in which a rocker arm (10) is set to a zero position which is recorded as a reference datum and an adjustment screw (18) is then operated to set the rocker arm to a first reference position. The adjustment screw is then rotated through a predetermined angle so that the rocker arm is moved to a second reference position. The difference between the first and second reference positions and the predetermined angle are used to determine a coefficient relating the angular movement of the adjustment screw to linear movement of the rocker arm. The coefficient is then used to calculate the angular rotation of the adjustment screw required to set a predetermined valve clearance relative to the zero position. The initial adjustment of the rocker arm position serves to neutralise backlash in the valve drive train prior to setting the valve clearance. <IMAGE>
