Abstract: A technology is described for transferring a file from an unsecure network to a secure network. An example method may include identifying an unsecure account profile and determining that a file is to be transmitted from an unsecure network to a secure network using a one-way transfer device. In response, the file may be obtained from a file storage location and an unsecure account profile name for the unsecure account profile may be identified. A request may be made that the one-way transfer device to transmit the file and the unsecure account profile name to the secure network. The file and the unsecure account profile name may then be transmitted to the secure network, where a secure account profile corresponding to the unsecure account profile may be identified in the secure network and the file may be placed in a folder associated with the secure account profile.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rack-and-pinion steering system having a pressure piece which pushes a rack against a pinion, a contact face with the rack of the pressure piece being of asymmetrical configuration.

Abstract: A child seat (10) with a seat shell (12) and with a backrest (14) is described. The seat shell (12) is designed with a lap-belt guide (18) for a vehicle lap belt. The backrest (14) has a head restraint (20) with lateral flanks (22), a respective diagonal-belt guide (26) for a vehicle diagonal belt of a vehicle three-point belt being provided on the lateral flanks (22). The diagonal-belt guide has a slot (28) which is open to the front, does not clamp the belt and has a belt-retaining section (30). The belt-retaining section (30) directly and immediately adjoins the front-side slot opening (32) of the slot (28). A spring-loaded closure element (34) is provided on the front-side slot opening (32), the closure element enabling the vehicle diagonal belt to be threaded in a simple manner through the slot opening (32) into the slot (28) and blocking the slot opening (32) in its normal closure position in a spring-loaded, prestressed manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a child seat (10) for motor vehicles, comprising a seat (12), a backrest (14) and a head rest (22). The head rest (22) has two side cheeks (28) and a central part (30) connecting both side cheeks. The head rest (22) is fitted on the backrest (14) and is height-adjustable. The central part of the head rest (22) covers only the back part (4) of the backrest (14). The backrest (14) has a guiding device along which the height of the head rest (22) can be adjusted.

Abstract: Variable viewing angle liquid crystal display screen systems are disclosed. They are useful, e.g. in automatic teller machines where, during parts of a transaction with a user, it is undesirable that information on screen can be read by others. In accordance with the invention, interposed in a conventional display arrangement of reflector (2), backlight (1), diffuser (3), optional brightness enhancer (4, 5) and transmission type screen (6) are a collimator (10) and a variable diffuser (11). If the variable diffuser (11) is set to transparent, the light passing through the transmission type screen (6) is still collimated and accordingly the display on the screen is only effectively visible over a narrow viewing angle. If the diffuser (11) is set to diffuse the collimated light, then the display is visible over a very wide range of angles.

Abstract: The invention concerns Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD), in which Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) is used. PDLC does not require the use of polarizing filters and half-reflective mirrors, as do some other LCDs. Eliminating the polarizing filters and mirrors eliminates the light attenuation which the filters and mirrors cause. Thus, less light input is required, which increases battery life in devices which are battery-powered. The invention provides a color display by applying color filters to each pixel, and by edge-illuminating the PDLC.

Abstract: A cover or apron interposed between a ballute and the aft cover of a submtion for delaying deployment of the ballute and preventing the ballute from contacting the aft cover during deployment.

Abstract: 1. In electrical signaling in which the signal varies in amplitude from instant to instant, and at any one instant has an amplitude equal to one of a limited number of values having a total range in excess of two, means to disguise the signal preparatory to transmission comprising means in each instant to establish for transmission under control of said signal a voltage having with substantially equal probability any one of a like limited number of amplitude values having a total range in excess of two, means to transmit said established voltages, and means at a receiving point to retranslate the transmitted voltages into the clear signal.

Abstract: A media positioning means for a printer having first and second transport mechanisms which are positioned in opposed relation with each other to form a common throat therebetween. Each of the first and second transport mechanisms includes first and second endless belts, a cross bar whose ends are secured to the belts, and grippers mounted on the cross bar to enable first and second record media inserted in the throat to be individually gripped thereby and positioned in side by side or overlapping relationship with regard to a print line in the printer.
