Patent EP-1331351-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ANDERSEN FINN
IPC: E05B65/00
Filed: 1997-04-24
Abstract: By child barriers to be clamped in a doorway, staircases and the like
narrow passages to deny children and pets access, said barrier furnished
with a gate it is difficult to achieve the correct clamping force of the
barrier and there is also the risk that the gate buckles and furthermore
there are problems with locking the gate. Said problems are solved
according to the invention by a special design of the hinge (16) which
makes the upper bar appear rigid in its entire length when the gate is
in the closed position. Besides, in the upper bar a pressure indicator
(90,92) is built in and furthermore the friction blocks are secured
against the lining being stripped off. The handle (62) of the gate is
likewise secured by means of a blocking means.

Abstract: A pointing device capable of generating a fixed control signal regardless of operated directions and preventing the generation of a control signal owing to malfunctions, and an electronic apparatus capable of moving a controlled object on a display screen in any direction at a velocity corresponding to an operated amount of an operating section. An original point is defined as a point where a slid distance of a slide key is 0. The maximum slid distance and the minimum slid distance are defined as max _max and min _max, respectively, when moving the slide key until it reaches the rim of an opening section. When the slide key is located within a circular area whose center is the original point and whose radius is n/N of max _max (n and N are arbitrary positive integers, and n < N), a calculating section determines the strength of a control signal as 0. When the slide key is located within a toric area whose distance from the original point is larger than n/N of max _max and smaller than min _max, the calculating section determines the strength of a control signal according to the slid distance of the slide key. When the slide key is located within an area whose distance from the original point is larger than min _max, the calculating section determines the same strength of a control signal as the strength determined when the slid distance of the slide key is min _max.

Abstract: A gas storage system formed of a continuous pipe wound in plural layers, each layer having plural loops. The pipe may be distributed within a container, which may serve as a carousel for winding the pipe and as a gas containment device. When containers, each containing a continuous pipe are stacked upon each other, the weight of upper containers may be born by the walls of lower containers, thus preventing lower layers of pipe from suffering stresses due to crushing by upper layers. A method of transporting gas to a gas distribution facility including obtaining a supply of gas at a gas supply point remote from the gas distribution facility, injecting the gas into a continuous pipe bent to form plural layers, each layer including plural loops of pipe, transporting the continuous pipe along with the gas to the gas distribution facility preferably in a ship and discharging the gas at the gas distribution facility. It is preferred that cooling of the pipe during discharging of the gas be conserved so that during subsequent filling the pipe is initially cool. Also, in a further aspect of the invention, during filling, the gas pressure should be maintained as constant as possible for example by controlled release of an incompressible liquid from the pipe as the pipe is filled with gas. Energy from the incompressible liquid may then be recovered or dissipated outside of the pipes.
