| 161 | Eating utensil for indicating when food may be eaten therewith and a method for using the utensil | US352977 | 1989-05-17 | US4914819A | 1990-04-10 | Stephen R. Ash |
| A dietary control eating utensil is disclosed for indicating when food can be eaten therewith. The handle of the utensil includes a gravity-powered timing device. The device includes an elongated transparent material chamber for containing immiscible fluids having different densities such as air and mineral oil. The lighter density fluid forms a visible signal within the chamber that is moveable between the distal and proximal ends. The period associated with the movement of the visible signal depends on the different elevations of the chamber ends. The shape of the chamber along with the density of the two fluids also contributes to the time period the visible signal takes to move between the two ends of the chamber. When the air bubble moves to a predetermined position within the chamber, this indicates when the utensil may be used for consuming food. | ||||||

| 165 | Counting device with ball actuated aligned rotatable indicating elements | US193934 | 1980-10-06 | US4370064A | 1983-01-25 | Alan A. Hicks; Howard J. Morrison; John R. Wildman; Terry E. Webb |
| A counting device with ball actuated, aligned, rotatable indicating elements is disclosed that is particularly useful as a clock. The device includes a plurality of indicating elements rotatable around parallel axes, arranged side by side in three columns. Each indicating element includes a display portion and a ball actuated flange, mounted on a common axle with the flanges of adjacent elements in each column forming a ball conveying track. The elements are successively rotated to the upward display position by a ball whose continued presence atop an element's flange causes an appropriate rotation of that element. The balls are continuously recycled by a synchronous motor elevator which collects the balls at their lowest position and returns them to their highest position in communication with the ball conveying tracks. After all of the indicating elements in a column have been raised to their display position, the ball resets the first rotated element causing it to reset the adjacent elements. In this way the elements are returned to their downward position by a domino effect. | ||||||

| 168 | Gravity powered timers | US611141 | 1975-09-08 | US4024701A | 1977-05-24 | Wynne Rinnman Corson |
| A gravity powered timing device is described which is of generally rectangular cross-section, the perimeter portions of which include a plurality of inclined track sections which successively communicate with each other to define a descending track of predetermined finite length. A free rolling ball is adapted to travel downwardly along such track and, at the terminal portion of each track section, is prevented from achieving undesired high speed by collision with the wall portion for the next successive track section. The terminal portion of the lowermost of said inclined track sections is in overlying relationship with a sounding plate, whereby a ball travelling successfully downwardly along the track will be discharged onto the sounding plate and thereby produce an audible signal. If desired, a similar sounding plate can be provided at the upper end of the device, thereby enabling a repeat of the timing cycle to be accomplished by simply inverting the device. In a preferred embodiment, the track sections can be of modular construction, thereby enabling the operator to selectively regular the track length and hence the duration of the timing cycle. | ||||||

Each processing structure in turn is formed by a number of processing modules for processing input samples. A phase generator aligns the processing modules with the input samples so that each input sample is processed by a respective one of the processing modules. An up-sampling buffer and a down-sampling buffer are used when the processing structures operate at different clock frequencies (thus implementing different clock domains) so as to convert signal samples between the clock domains for processing in the processing structures. | ||||||
