Abstract: The sensors (9) lie close to the panel surfaces. Only two drops (11) of fluid, wetting each sensor and panel surface, are required for acoustic coupling. The total panel thickness (D) is determined from the ultrasonically-measured distances between surfaces and sensors, coupled with a prior knowledge of the sensor separation.  Preferred features: Individual wall thicknesses (do, du) are measured from echoes, based on propagation time differences of reflections from respective surfaces. Sensors follow the calibrator (4) outlet. Mounted on a traverse, they can be moved over the full width of the outer walls (6, 7). Water forms the coupling fluid; it is heated. It is wiped or sucked away, to remove it afterwards. The panels are plastic. The measurement method is used in manufacture; a typical control system compares measured with desired dimensions, and calls for judicious variation in tool and/or calibrator settings.

Abstract: A molding apparatus and method of injection, compression or otherwise
molding a closure (76) having projections (78) extending inwardly from a
skirt (80) of the closure includes a plurality of slides (20) for
movement obliquely with respect to an inner mold core (18). A ring (86)
contacts the closure and surrounds the slides (20). Movement of the ring
(86) relative to the mold core (18) results in the movement of the
closure which moves the slides (20) to disengage recesses (74) on the
slides (20). The recesses (74) are used to form the projections (78) on
the closure. The ring (86) contacts the closure and advances the closure
away from the mold core (18). The projections (78) seated within the
recesses (74) on the slides (20) move the slides (20) obliquely relative
to the mold core (18) and ultimately disengage the recesses (74) from
the projections (78) thereby releasing the closure from the mold. The
movement of the slides (20) is independent from the movement of the ring
(86) so that complicated mechanisms for movement of the slides (20) are
not required according to this invention.

Abstract: Bandwidth within a common wireless communication channel used by a number of independent computer networks is allocated by assigning a portion of the total bandwidth of the common wireless communication channel to intra-network communications in each of the independent computer networks. This bandwidth allocation scheme may, from time to time, involve revising existing bandwidth allocations for one or more of the independent computer networks, for example when new networks or new clients in existing networks request bandwidth within the channel. The intra-network communications may occur within a slotted link structure that includes transmission times for master and client devices of the respective network. These transmisson times are preferably arranged within a hierarchy that includes transmission times for master and client devices of other networks that share the wireless communication channel. At least one of the computer networks includes a master coordinator unit configured to allocate bandwidth utilization for the common communication channels among the independent computer networks. In some cases, one or more of the independent computer networks may communicate with the master coordinator unit through a proxy-coordinator unit located in a separate one of the independent computer networks from that of the master coordinator unit, in the same computer network as the master coordinator unit or in the same computer network as is utilizing its services.

Abstract: A method is provided for determining colorant levels required by a printer to match a target color. A set of candidate colors is generated on a computer and printed on the printer. Color neighbors in the candidate color sets are calculated based on the colorants of the particular printer being used, but are presented to the user according to their human-natural organization by hue, lightness and saturation. One or more further sets of candidate colors are generated on the computer in response to user input indicative of a correlation between a color in a most recent printed set of candidate colors and the target color. The user then chooses a further set of candidate colors to be printed. The steps (54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 66, 68) of generating and printing further sets of candidate colors are repeated, if necessary, until a selected color in the most recent printed set of candidate colors acceptably matches the target color (64). Information indicative of the colorant levels required by the printer to print the selected color is recorded for subsequent use in printing that color.
