  • Patent number: 11439135
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fishing camera assembly for coupling to a fishing line. The assembly includes a camera and a carrier for carrying the camera along the line. The carrier includes an openable surround (e.g. tube) that surrounds the line. Advantageously, the surround can be opened to readily release the camera from the line thereby reducing complication to the angler's tackle set-up.

  • Publication number: 20180128543
    Abstract: A method and controller compensates control variables of a continuous process prior to the control variables being input to the controller/control matrix to at least partially mask the effect of a selected disturbance or a manipulated variable on that controlled variable to the controller. The controlled variable(s) has been chosen to be an inference of a desired underlying or related variable which is not directly measurable. The selected disturbance to be masked is one which does affect the (measured) controlled variable, but not the underlying desired variable. By at least partially masking the effect to all intents and purposes the controller is unaware of the effect of the selected disturbance on the controlled variable and therefore, for a fully masked disturbance, does not make any adjustment to a manipulated variable associated with the selected disturbance which would unnecessarily alter the underlying desired variable.

  • Publication number: 20040237432
    Abstract: A foundation component (1) is disclosed which is suitable for forming part of a modular foundation for a building structure. The foundation component (1), defines at least one receptacle (2) which, in use, may be filled with a suitable particulate material. A plurality of protrusions (5) extending generally downwards from the base (6) of the foundation component (1) engage a foundation surface on which the foundation component is located. In a preferred embodiment the foundation component may include tongue in groove interengagement of adjacent foundation components (1), and may also include provision for service channels and reinforcing rods.

  • Patent number: 6663091
    Abstract: A hydraulic hearing, including a supporting bearing (1) and a bearing member (2), which are supported against each other by an elastic spring element (3) made of rubber elastic material, and delimit a working chamber (4) and the compensating chamber (5); the working chamber (4) and a compensating chamber (5) each being filled with damping fluid (6) and being in fluid communication with each other; the bearing member (2) essentially being formed in the shape of a pot; the supporting bearing (1) and the elastic spring element (3) essentially being disposed in the interior space (7) defined by the pot-shaped bearing member (2); the bearing member (2) having a two-shell design on its peripheral side, and an outer ring (8) which encloses an inner ring (9) with a radial clearance; the compensating chamber (5) being disposed in the gap formed by the clearance, and being delimited by a boundary wall (11), which extends in the axial direction, can expand in a radial direction, and essentially accommodates an increase

  • Publication number: 20020117788
    Abstract: A hydraulic bearing including a journal bearing (1) and a supporting bearing (2) which are connected to each other by a spring body (3) made of a rubber elastic material and border on at least one working space (4) and at least one compensating space (5), the working space (4) and the compensating space (5) being each filled with a damping fluid and communicating through a damping device (6) so as to conduct fluid. Damping fluid can flow through the damping device (6) when the journal bearing (1) and supporting bearing (2) are radially displaced relative to one another.

  • Patent number: 6276671
    Abstract: A bush-type hydraulically damped mounting device has two telescoped anchor parts. Resilient walls, spaced apart axially, extend between the anchor parts. Deformable walls, spaced apart circumferentially, extend axially between the resilient walls, to define first and second chambers for hydraulic fluid. The deformable walls make abutting unbonded contact with one or other of the anchor parts.

  • Patent number: 5908384
    Abstract: An apparatus for non-invasive measurement within a human or animal body with an emitter for emitting electromagnetic radiation into the human or animal body and a detector for detecting the scattered and attenuated radiation. The detector comprises a first principal detector and at least one second reference detector. The second detector is disposed a distance from the emitter which is less than the distance of the first principal detector from the emitter. The second detector is disposed on a line of radius from the emitter which forms an angle with the line of the radius from the emitter on which the first principal detector lies.

  • Patent number: 5731582
    Abstract: A surface sensor device (1) with an electromagnetic radiation emitter (3) and a radiation detector (2) disposed on opposite sides of an instrument outlet (6), which instrument outlet (6) is required to be placed in close proximity to a surface (30). The surface sensor (1) also having a member (8) disposed in the path of the emitted radiation and the radiation reflected from the surface (30). The member (8) allows a portion of the emitted radiation to pass within it from the emitter (3) to the detector (2) while providing a path for a further portion of the radiation to pass through the member (8) towards the surface (30) for scattering and reflection by which means light is returned to the member (8) back towards the detector (2).
