Abstract: This invention relates to a novel bushing apparatus having unique nozzles or projecting orifices for the production of round glass fibers.  Particularly, it relates to a bushing having tips with cross sections in the form of finite-sided polygons.  It is shown that the use of noncircular tips to produce round fibers can result in higher tip packing densities than are now present in the state of the art.  Tips with square cross sections are shown to provide the most preferred embodiment of this aspect of the invention.  Still more preferred is an embodiment in which rows of noncircular tips are interconnected with the tip plate by means of an integrally formed rib which increases the stiffness of the tip plate and its resistance to high temperature thermal creep.

Title: Dampener for impacting mechanism
Inventor: EFTEFIELD LARRY G
IPC: B25D17/24
Filed: 1989-09-22
Granted: 1993-01-26
Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure Dampener for Impacting Mechanism A dampener for cushioning engagement forces of an impacting mechanism.  An impacting mechanism has relatively movable members that can be releasably coupled together.  The coupling engagement produces forces which tend to deform the coupling members.  An impacting mechanism, having an actuator with a releasable coupling member is coupled to a relatively movable impact plunger, contains a dampener which compresses or deforms to cushion the coupling force. An impacting mechanism having a dampener for cushioning the forces during coupling engagement prevents the coupling members from being deformed.

Title: Pneumatic shoe for high speed filamentary capstan
Inventor: LECOMPTE GEORGE
IPC: B65H51/16
Filed: 1989-09-29
Granted: 1993-06-01
Abstract: ABSTRACT      An apparatus and methodology for uniformly applying a compressive force against a filament to pneumatically drive the filament or fiber optic cable against a capstan without any concentrated amount of stress at any point on the filament (12) is effectuated by pneumatically forcing the filament (12) into an equatorial V-groove (46) defined in the capstan (16).  Pneumatic pressure is applied to a predefined segment of the capstan (16) by a pneumatic shoe (10) having an internal shoe pressure chamber (20).  The pressurized gas or air is applied to the segment from the chamber (20) into the proximity of the equatorial V-groove (46) on the capstan (16).  The V-groove (46) is vented to atmosphere so that the filament (12) is forced or blown into the V-groove (46).  Side and end clearances between the rotating capstan and the shoe are sized to allow the viscosity of the pressurized gas to operate to retard the escape of the pressurized gas from the predefined segment of the capstan (16).  Utilizing such an arrangement, approximately 10 kilometers or more of filament can be 20 paid out in approximately 32 seconds or less.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A tank mounted discharge conduit assembly for use with a submersible pump unit comprises a base member connected to the tank as well as an upright body having a fluid conduit therein. The base member has an upwardly extending portion which is complementally received within a lower portion of the upright body, in order to provide support against lateral deflection of the body as well as to prohibit the flow of fluids through a lower end of the conduit. The body also integrally includes a pair of upright, spaced, elongated, U-shaped guides which are configured to slidably receive an outlet flange of the pump and shift the latter toward a position of fluid communication between the pump and an opening in the body communicating, with the fluid conduit therein. The guides advantageously include yieldable wall portions which accommodate lateral movements of the pump unit to facilitate raising and lowering of the pump by a rope-equipped hoist when the latter is unintentionally vertically misaligned with the center of gravity of the pump unit.

Abstract: In CELP coding, stochastic (noise-like) excitation is used in exciting a cascade of long-term and short-term all-pole linear synthesis filters. This approach is based on the observation that the ideal excitation, obtained by inverse-filtering the speech signal, can be modeled for simplicity as Gaussian white noise. Although such stochastic excitation resembles the ideal excitation in its global statistical properties, it contains a noisy component that is irrelevant to the synthesis process. This component introduces some roughness and noisiness in the synthesized speech. The present invention reduces this effect by adaptively controlling the level of the stochastic excitation. The proposed control mechanism links the stochastic excitation to the long-term predictor in such a way that the excitation level is inversely related to the efficiency of the predictor. As a result, during voiced sounds, the excitation level is considerably attenuated and the synthesis is mainly accomplished by exciting the short-term filter with the periodic output of the long-term filter. This reduces the noisiness, enhances the pitch structure of the synthesized speech and its perceptual quality.
