A portable trade recordation and submission system comprising a hand-held computer terminal with a removable storage device. The software program in the system provides display screens for sign-on, set date/time, account setup, futures/options trade detail, review of positions and evaluate positions. Transaction data pertaining to trades may be entered in the system via the display screens and sto...

A front-surface emitting, vertical-cavity laser and its method of making in which a vertical laser cavity with Bragg reflectors and an active layer, preferably formed by a quantum well, is formed on a substrate. Lateral current confinement is achieved by implanting a conductivity-reducing ion into the region surrounding the quantum well. Electrical contact to the upper side of the active layer is ...

A diaper (1) is comprised of a topsheet (2), a backsheet (3) and an absorbent core (4). Both of laterally opposite side zones (14) are tuck-in folded toward a longitudinal centerline (A-A) of the diaper (1) so as to be interposed between front and rear bodies (15, 16) of the diaper (1).

This invention is directed to a system for implanting a device to open constrictions in corpeal conduits, which comprises (a) an elongated tubular member (40) and (b) a spatial spiral (1) of elongate axial extension wound of thin wire and having attachment means at each end, said spiral being positioned on and concentric to said elongated tubular member, said spiral being in a constricted conditio...

A motorized window blind operator is slidably received in a mounting bracket in the plane of the blind in a window frame. A motor in the operator housing normally opens and closes the blind but can be overridden by a manually operated gear train utilizing a screw driver extending through a hole in the inner window pane into engagement with a slotted hub on a gear in the housing. An upstanding flan...

An electrode structure (22,24,26,28) for use with a surface acoustic wave resonator (10) which has the same velocity as the transducers and gratings but no reflections; a second embodiment provides a electrode structure having a velocity equal to the velocity of the transducers and gratings but that has a coefficient of reflectivity that can be predetermined by varying the width of the electrodes ...

28 ELECTRODE STRUCTURE WITH CONSTANT VELOCITY AND PREDETERMINED REFLECTIVITY An electrode structure for use with a surface acoustic wave resonator which has the same velocity as the transducers and gratings but no reflections; a second embodiment provides a electrode structure having a velocity equal to the velocity of the transducers and gratings but that has a coefficient of reflectivity that ca...

A method for collating independent figure elements in an object image with a reference image both including independent elements which are not interlinked with each other. The method comprises steps of defining a relative coordinate system in an image plane for the reference image and the object image on the basis of centers of gravity of two distinctive independent elements which are identified w...

Manufacturing of titanium dioxide pressed articles wherein pyrogenically produced titanium dioxide in the presence of completely demineralized water is intensively mixed with a wetting agent and/or a base and/or, optionally, a binder and/or, optionally, a shaping adjuvant and/or, optionally, an expanding agent, the resulting material is extruded into moulded members at pressures between 5 and...

An automatic device for wrapping palletized loads with a stretch film and similar, in particular with rotating arm, comprising a frame 1, to which a rotating arm 2 is pivoted 20 in a manner rotating around a vertical axis and in a substantially circular path C and on which a reel-holder carriage 3 is mounted movably. During rotation, the rotating arm 2 circumscribes the stationary palletized load ...
