Telephone answering system with simulated dial tone disconnect protection

Номер: US4314103A
Автор: Donald R. Wilson
Принадлежит: Plantronics Inc

An automatic telephone answering system wherein disconnection from the telephone line following calling party hang up is in response to the detection of dial tone, utilizes a signal detector responsive to voice and steady tone signals for providing an indication of the status of an incoming signal on the telephone line, and a processor for monitoring line signal status to determine the presence of dial tone. Following a determination of the presence of dial tone as an incoming line signal, the processor acts to automatically disconnect the system from the telephone line by opening a telephone line connection relay. The determination of dial tone is made based upon the continuous existence, over a predetermined time interval, of an incoming line signal status representative of a steady tone signal, rather than an absolute, single event detection. An automatic telephone answering and message recording system having remote access message playback, and which disconnects from the telephone line in response to dial tone, further includes processor actuated circuitry for inserting a blank interval in an incoming line signal prior to being recorded. The circuitry is actuated upon a determination by the processor that the incoming line signal is a steady tone signal, the determination being made based upon the existence, over a predetermined time interval, of an incoming line signal status representative of a steady tone signal. The duration of the time interval for such determination being a shorter period than the duration of the time interval for a dial tone determination.

The invention relates to a hot peel carrier for decorative graphics and lettering applied to a substrate wherein the carrier has a film having opposite surfaces and an adhesive having a peel strength which decreases with increasing temperature, the adhesive being on a surface of the plastic film. The invention also provides a laminate for use in applying graphics to a substrate which incorporates the carrier, methods of using and methods of using the carrier and laminate disclosed herein. The various embodiments disclosed herein incorporating the aforementioned hot peel carrier have significant advantages stemming from the fact that immediate after a graphic is heat applied to a substrate, the adhesive of the carrier has substantially no adhesion to either the substrate or to the heated adhered graphic. As a result, the carrier may be immediately removed from the heat applied graphic and underlying substrate without the use of any external force in the form of pulling or stretching. As a result, the invention may be used to provide high production volume capabilities in heat applied graphic and lettering processes, in addition the invention is particularly applicable to the production of multi-component letters or graphics wherein more than one color is desired.

Steered linear color doppler imaging

Номер: US5165413A
Принадлежит: Acuson Corp

A dual mode color Doppler imaging system using a linear array of transducer elements generates and transmits into an organism, such as the human body, an acoustic imaging beam optimized for B-mode imaging and a separate acoustic Doppler beam which is steered at preselected angles relative to the imaging beam and is optimized for Doppler data acquisition. Acoustic imaging echos are acquired and displayed as a B-mode gray-scale image. Doppler data are acquired from multiple sample volumes along the direction of each Doppler beam. The Doppler information acquired along multiple lines is displayed as a color-encoded image that is spatially coordinated with, superimposed upon and simultaneously displayed with, the B-mode gray-scale image.
