| 20110103895 | METHOD OF MAKING A LINE - A method of forming a line on a ground surface is described. It comprises the steps of: forming one or more slits in the ground surface; inserting a line of material in the or each slit such that part of the material is visible above the ground surface. Also described is a material suitable for use in forming a line on a ground surface. The ground surface is generally grassed earth, and the material can be a geotextile such as polypropylene. The present invention provides a simple but effective means of providing marked lines e.g. for playing surfaces such as football, rugby pitches and the like. The lines will remain, and need no further repair or maintenance for a number of years, while still providing the same visual effect as painted line. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20090218417 | CONFORMABLE POUCH RESERVOIR FOR SPRAY GUN - A reservoir for use with a spray gun has a body and a flexible diaphragm that define a chamber for liquid to be supplied to the spray gun. The body has an outlet opening leading to a spout connectable to the spray gun and the diaphragm deflects to reduce the volume of the chamber as liquid is withdrawn from the reservoir. The diaphragm gradually conforms to the internal surface of the body as the liquid is withdrawn to prevent pockets forming in which the liquid may be trapped so that substantially all the liquid can be dispensed. The reservoir may be supplied pre-filled with the liquid. | 09-03-2009 |

| 20080311811 | Press Pads - A press pad is provided for use in a laminate press. The pad includes a woven fabric of heat resistant strands wherein at least either the warp or the weft has a core made up of a plurality of strands within a sheath of an elastomeric material, and the other is made up of metal strands. Within the scale of the press pad, the strands making up the core lie substantially parallel to one another and to the longitudinal axis of the core. In use, therefore, when pressurized in the laminate press, the core structure collapses as the strands making up the core move relative to one another and the core tends to flatten out. This increases the springiness and compensation ability of the press pad without any loss of heat transfer ability. | 12-18-2008 |

| 20090026883 | Controller for a High Frequency Agitation Source - A controller for a high-frequency agitation source includes a signal generator to generate a drive signal having a variable duty cycle. The drive signal is used to drive the high-frequency agitation source. The controller also includes a temperature detector to detect the temperature of the high-frequency agitation source. The controller is configured to vary the duty cycle of the drive signal in response to the temperature of the high-frequency agitation source. By varying the duty cycle of the drive signal, the average power supplied to the piezoelectric crystal can be varied while still maintaining a fixed amplitude of oscillation. This allows the temperature of a high-frequency agitator, for example, a piezoelectric crystal, to be controlled. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20100151103 | DOMESTIC APPLIANCE - A toasting appliance includes a toasting chamber, a heating element arranged to heat a foodstuff located within the toasting chamber, and an optical system for optically illuminating the foodstuff and detecting light reflected from the foodstuff. Before the foodstuff begins to change colour as a result due to the heating thereof by the heating element, a controller varies the illumination of the foodstuff by the optical system so that the intensity of the light reflected from the foodstuff is at or around a set value. The controller subsequently terminates the toasting operation when the intensity of the light reflected from the foodstuff has reduced, due to toasting thereof, from the set value by an amount depending on a desired degree of toasting of the foodstuff. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100154653 | DOMESTIC APPLIANCE - A toasting appliance includes a toasting chamber, a heating element for heating a foodstuff located within the toasting chamber, an optical system having a first light source for illuminating the foodstuff with light having a first wavelength and an optical receiver for detecting light reflected from the foodstuff. A second light source is provided for illuminating at least the optical receiver with light having a second wavelength different from the first wavelength. A controller varies the intensity of the light emitted from the second light source during a toasting operation. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20110250355 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A PATTERN ON A CONTINUOUS STRIP - A method for producing a polymer topographic pattern on a continuous strip which has a longitudinal orientation and transverse orientation perpendicular thereto. The pattern is applied to an area of the continuous strip to be imprinted by means of an application device moving in relation to the strip in a basic movement which is parallel to the transverse orientation of the strip to produce the pattern. During production of the pattern, the position of the continuous strip parallel to its transverse orientation, relative to a stationary reference position, is measured and the position of the application device is changed by a correction movement parallel to the transverse orientation of the continuous strip when the position of the continuous strip parallel to its transverse orientation is changed, the correction movement being superimposed to the basic movement. | 10-13-2011 |
