20090008225Conveyor Apparatus and System - Typical roller conveyors suffer from excess noise and frequent maintenance due to worn rollers and roller bearings. Continuous loop belt conveyors solve some of these problems, but still suffer from an inability to change the width of the conveyor belt without significant rework or adjustment. Although a narrower belt can be used without major adjustment, prior continuous loop conveyor systems still suffer from belt drift. To alleviate these problems, a belt conveyor system that easily adjusts to accommodate continuous loop belts of varying widths is provided. The system comprises a rigid conveyor frame having at least one pair of generally parallel side walls traversed by one or more support brackets. The support brackets are secured to the conveyor frame. Additionally, one or more belt guides, having at least one surface for guiding a conveyor belt, are secured to the support brackets. The system further comprises one or more belt supports each having a substantially horizontal surface for guiding the conveyor belt, wherein the belt supports are secured to the support brackets.01-08-2009

20090230702LATCH FOR A MOTOR-VEHICLE HEADREST - A latch secures an element such as a motor-vehicle headrest for movement relative to a support between a rest position and an advanced position. A pivotal lever can hold the element in the rest position. A spring pushes the element into the advanced position and presses it against the lever so as to apply a torque to the lever that presses a latch formation on the lever against a retractile latch part of an actuator. If the actuator retracts the part, the lever is released and the lever can pivot to allow the spring to move the element into the advanced position.09-17-2009
20110198908MOTOR-VEHICLE HEADREST - A motor-vehicle headrest has a base fixable to a motor vehicle seat and a cushion support having a forwardly directed front face adapted to engage a head of a person in the seat. An upper link has a front end pivoted at an upper support axis on the support and a rear end pivoted at an upper base axis on the base, and a lower link having a front end pivoted at a lower support axis on the support offset downward from the upper support axis and a rear end pivoted at a lower base axis on the base offset downward from the upper base axis. The cushion is shiftable relative to the base between a rear position and a front position on pivoting of the links about the respective axes. A rigid brace is pivoted on the upper link between the upper axes and on the lower link between the lower axes.08-18-2011

20090323073Analytical Instrument Having Internal Reference Channel - An analytical instrument for making measurements based on detection of an SPR resonance minimum or a refractometer transition shadowline on a detector array is improved by configuring a diaphragm of the instruments illumination system to include a first aperture, a second aperture, and an opaque region between the first and second apertures, wherein the opaque region of the diaphragm casts a shadow on the detector array to provide a reference minimum from which a relative location of the resonance minimum or transition shadowline is measurable. By establishing a reference minimum on the detector array as a reference location for relative measurement, the instrument compensates for signal drift and other instrument variations. The diaphragm may include additional apertures and opaque regions for generating additional reference minima over the extent of the detector array.12-31-2009

20100166888Composition and method for the control of organoleptic properties of bodily fluids and secretions - Methods and edible compositions that improve the organoleptic properties of bodily fluids and secretions are provided. The compositions may contain chlorophyll and/or charcoal based compounds which neutralize in whole or in part undesirable organoleptic properties of bodily secretions, and which may also contain compounds which can impart desirable organoleptic properties to the body and to bodily fluids and secretions. The compositions according to this invention may also include compounds which: (1) promote the effective and prompt absorption by the gastrointestinal tract and target fluids of the compounds that can affect the organoleptic properties of the body and of bodily fluids and secretions, and/or (2) enhance the actions of these compounds on the organoleptic properties of the body and of bodily fluids and secretions once the compounds are absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract.07-01-2010

20090217923Breath-controlled inhalation therapy device - A breath-controlled inhalation therapy device includes an obturation mechanism, obturating a nozzle opening through which a pressurized gas, preferably pressurized air, is issued when the device is in operation. An actuation mechanism actuates the obturation mechanism only in the exhalation phases of the respiration cycle of a patient. The fluid to be atomized is therefore substantially atomized only in the inhalation phases.09-03-2009

20100232740POF STRAIN SENSOR USING PHASE MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES - An optical fiber sensor has a measurement path and a reference path. Both paths each consist of two optical fibers and are fed with modulated light. The fibers of the reference path have a predefined difference in length, whereas the fibers of the measurement path are the same length. All fibers are at approximately the same temperature. An evaluation circuit determines the phase differences in each case between the fibers of the measurement path and of the reference path. A measurement value calculated from the phase differences is then output.09-16-2010
