122 FLUID FLOW CONTROL VALVES PCT/GB2013000540 2013-12-11 WO2014096754A3 2014-08-14 HARPER KARL; POPE MATTHEW ROBERT
A fluid flow control valve comprising an outer casing with an inner valve member displaceable between first and second positions within the casing, the valve member including passages which interconnect different valve inlets and outlets dependent on whether the valve member is in its first or second position, the valve member being made from plastic material so that the diameter of the valve member can be increased without increasing its weight above that of a conventional metal inner valve member. This allows the passages through the inner valve member to be of the same internal diameter as the tubing leading up to and away from the valve. The valve member can be acted upon by a magnetic restoring means which tends to return the valve member towards its first position when displaced therefrom.

124 Adjustable brass valve US14643847 2015-03-10 US09595246B2 2017-03-14 John Hagstrom
An adjustable valve for a musical instrument, such as a trumpet, allows valve alignment to be adjusted without removing the valve from the instrument. The adjustable valve fits and looks like a standard valve. Rotation of a finger button of the valve causes an upper portion of an adjustable stem to rotate with respect to a lower portion of the adjustable stem that is threadably coupled to the upper portion, resulting in control over the length of the adjustable stem. Increasing or decreasing the length of the adjustable stem changes the alignment of the valve piston within the valve tube. Control over piston alignment is achieved by rotating the finger button, and thus is achieved without the need to remove the valve from the instrument.

133 Method and apparatus for disabling anti-copy protection system in video signals US08405482 1995-03-16 USRE40689E1 2009-03-31 Ronald Quan; John F. Peruzzi
A method and apparatus for disabling the effect of copy-protect signals placed in a recording video signals which is based on differences in the characteristics of television and VCR circuitry. Copy-protect signals include pseudo-sync pulses and/or added AGC pulses in the blanking interval of a video signal. The specific method described includes altering the level of the video signal during the vertical blanking interval, e.g., level-shifting, so as to render the copy-protect copy protection signals ineffective to prevent in preventing unauthorized copying by a VCR. A circuit for achieving the method includes a sync separator for detecting the vertical blanking interval, pulse generating circuits for producing pulses of predetermined widths during this interval, and a summing circuit for summing the predetermined pulses with copy-protect signals thereby to shift their level. An alternative method includes increasing the effective frequency of the copy-protect signals during the vertical blanking interval so as to achieve attenuation and/or low-pass filtering in the VCR circuitry to there by render rendering the modified signals ineffective in preventing copying. A circuit for achieving this method includes pulse narrowing and/or pulse multiplication circuitry which effectively increased the high-frequency content of the pseudo-sync and/or AGC pulses.

135 Valve device for musical instrument and metallic wind instrument comprising the same US10479160 2001-05-30 US20050076769A1 2005-04-14 Walter Singer; Lars Stransky; Haruo Kimura
Since the casing newly developed for the entire valve block of a brasswind instrument is made of resin, the dimensions of all inner movable parts can be increased without increasing substantially the weight of the entire valve block. This additional degree of freedom in design allows for planning and manufacturing of both inner sound channels and switching channels of movable inner parts so that they have a perfectly circular profile and a smooth inner surface. Therefore, by providing an ideal sound channel without increasing the overall weight of the valve block, a considerable improvement in the sound quality of an instrument can be achieved.
