Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090179438Rotary Pawl Latch - A latch assembly for releasably securing a first member in a closed position relative to a second member is disclosed. The latch assembly includes a frames a rotary pawl, a locking member, a handle, and a lock plug. The frame is adapted for attachment to the first member. The handle is pivotally attached to the frame and is movable between a closed position and an open position. The locking member retains the pawl in the latched position when the locking member is in an undeflected configuration. The handle causes the locking member to deflect and release the pawl from a latched position when the lacking member is in an unlocked position and the handle is moved to the open position. The lock barrel is supported by the frame and can selectively move the locking member to a locked position where the locking member cannot be actuated by the handle.07-16-2009

20110274741INGESTIBLE COMPOSITIONS AND PROCESSES OF PREPARATION - One or more of hydrolysed wheat flour, soluble dietary fibre, prebiotic dietary fibre, polydextrose and soluble corn fibre ate used as basic matrix-forming ingredients in an expanded food product. The matrix-forming ingredients are mixed together with water, plus a whey protein isolate or whey protein concentrate, to increase the protein content of the food. A dough is formed which is then formed into pieces which are temperature conditioned before being expanded under a vacuum caused by evaporation of moisture in the dough. All steps of the process of making the expanded food products, including any subsequent drying, is carried out at a temperature not exceeding 75° C., which advantageously allows mixing in of temperature sensitive ingredients, e.g. vitamins, pharmaceuticals, at the dough forming stage. The products have a honeycomb structure and there is no significant change in flavour or nutritional value of the ingredients caused by the process of manufacture. Advantageously, acrylamide formation is also avoided.11-10-2011

20100250185Method for detection of gravitational anomalies - A method and system for detecting gravitational anomalies comprises measuring surface structures, measuring gravitational field characteristics, and estimating the effect of the surface structures on the gravitational measurements. The estimations are then used to derive a representation of nearby non visible features such as changes in rock density, voids, or oil and gas deposits. The surface structures may be measured by a video camera, with the video sequence being processed to estimate 3D positions of structures relative to the measurement point. Other methods may be used, such as lidar or acoustic techniques as appropriate. The method may be applied above ground and also has efficacy in borehole and sewer surveying applications.09-30-2010

20120032675Apparatus and Method for Ferromagnetic Object Detector - An apparatus is provided for compensating for the effect of a stray ferromagnetic object moving past but not through a sensing region of a ferromagnetic object detector. The ferromagnetic object detector is of a type to produce a plurality of sensor signals, each sensor signal being influenced by the presence of a genuine ferromagnetic object moving through the sensing region but also liable to be influenced by the presence of the stray object. The apparatus comprises: an input for receiving the plurality of sensor signals and first means for analysing the received signals to determine whether there is a substantially same time-varying component present in each of the signals. The apparatus also comprises second means for determining whether the plurality of signals without the contribution of that time-varying component are each or collectively below a predetermined level of significance. The apparatus also comprises third means for indicating, if the respective determinations from the first and second means are both positive, that the received signals are likely to relate to a stray object and not to a genuine ferromagnetic object moving through the sensing region.02-09-2012
20120074943Apparatus and Method for Ferromagnetic Object Detector - An apparatus is provided for compensating for the effect of a moving door on a nearby ferromagnetic object detector. The ferromagnetic object detector is of a type to produce a main sensor signal indicative of the presence of a ferromagnetic object in the vicinity of the ferromagnetic object detector. Furthermore, the door is arranged relative to the ferromagnetic object detector such that movement of the door is liable to introduce an undesirable interference signal into the main sensor signal. The apparatus comprises an input (03-29-2012
