Patent EP-0802551-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KILIAN FRANCIS
IPC: H01H31/12
Filed: 1997-02-14
Abstract: The device has securing fittings arranged transversely adjacent, separated from each other by at least one phase isolation wall and held by suspension parts via grip lugs. Each has a sprung latch (15) which can be locked with the lug (2). At least two latches (15) are mounted on a common slider which can be moved transversely to the longitudinal direction (11) of the securing device mounted in the isolating switch against the bias force of a spring. This brings the latches out of engagement with the lugs. The latches extend through a cover side wall to form a pushbutton (21).

Abstract: A method for the preparation of aromatic hydroxy compounds by catalytic oxidation of isoalkyl aromatic compounds with oxygen and degradation of the resulting hydroperoxide, comprises the following steps : (1) the isoalkyl aromatic compound is emulsified with an aqueous solution of the catalyst and the mixture is heated to a temperature between 50 degrees C and the emulsion b.pt. ; (2) oxygen is passed through the emulsion for 2-20 hours ; and (3) the hydroperoxide product is cleaved in the presence of an inorganic acid catalyst into an aromatic hydroxy compound and acetone. The isoalkyl compound used is 2-isopropyl naphthalene to form  beta -naphthol, p-cymol to form p-cresol or m-diisopropyl benzene to form resorcinol. 0.000001-0.01 mole copper compound (preferably copper cyanide) per mole isoalkyl compound or 0.000001-0.2 mole inorganic cyanide or organic nitrile per mole hydroxy compound, are used as a catalyst. 0.001-1 part by weight alkali hydroxide or carbonate and 0.0001-0.1 part by weight surfactant (preferably a fatty acid or a salt thereof) are added per 100 parts by weight catalyst solution. The isoalkyl compound / catalyst solution volume ratio is 1:1.

IPC: H03L7/099
Filed: 1997-08-25
Abstract: By using a bias switch (260) to define a unique
current range in a bias generator (142) for each n-bit
counter output state, it is possible to control a VCO
(140) which has a very wide operating frequency range.
These frequency ranges must overlap to guarantee the lock
irrespective of process or environmental (temperature and
voltage) variations. Depending on an input value of an
overall lock signal OLS to an n-bit counter (250) at the
rising edge of its clock signal CLK, it is possible to
scan the full spectrum of VCO frequency ranges until the
lock is achieved. By comparing a switch voltage to a
reference voltage Vref, it is possible to prevent the PLL
from locking at the very right-hand edge of a frequency
range unless it can maintain that the lock over the
entire operating temperature range. By strobing a fine
lock signal FLS at an integer m ( > 1) number of points,
it is possible to prevent false lock from occurring.

Abstract: Corrective line quantities for compensating for
differences between reading positions in an auxiliary
scanning direction of linear image sensors of a 3-line image
sensor are determined (in a step S1), and the determined
corrective line quantities are divided into integer-part
corrective line quantities INT[Cbg], INT[Crg] and decimal-part
corrective line quantities DEC[Cbg], DEC[Crg]. The
decimal-part corrective line quantities DEC[Cbg], DEC[Crg]
are interpolated in real-time by a hardware arrangement from
preceding image data and presently read image data, using
line buffer memories (6J, 6K) (in a step S21). The integer-part
corrective line quantities INT[Cbg], INT[Crg] are
changed in addresses when they are stored as a file in a
hard disk or the like (in a step S24), thus providing image
data which are equalized in reading positions.

Abstract: A method for measuring nitrogen oxide (NOx) in a gas by decomposing NOx in the gas and measuring an amount of oxygen generated by the decomposition includes: introducing the gas to a first inner space (2) via a first diffusion resistance (1) connected with an external space, setting the oxygen partial pressure in the first inner space to a predetermined low value at which NO is not decomposed substantially by a main pump means (60), introducing the controlled atmosphere of the first inner space into a second inner space (9) connected with the first inner space via a second diffusion resistance (8), and measuring an electric signal corresponding to the quantity of oxygen generated by decomposition or reduction of NOx contained in the atmosphere. A first oxygen concentration detecting means (12) for detecting the oxygen partial pressure is disposed in the second inner space, and the control voltage applied to the main pump means is adjusted on the basis of the output of the first oxygen concentration detecting means. This has the advantage that the system is much less sensitive to interferrents such as oxygen and steam.

Abstract: A partial response class-IV (PR4) read channel is disclosed for
magnetic recording including a coding scheme which improves timing
recovery by providing a more accurate phase error estimate. The
conventional 1/(1+D 2 ) precoder is not used in the present invention
(to avoid the ambiguous initial state), so that the read channel can
directly control the flux transitions written onto the magnetic disc.
This enables the read channel to encode user data according to a
criteria that creates well defined slopes in the analog read signal
at the sample instances, thereby improving the accuracy of the timing
recovery phase error estimate.

Abstract: An improved high-modulus, low-cost, castable, weldable titanium alloy
and a process for making such an alloy is provided. In general, titanium is alloyed with
about 0.75 weight percent iron and about 8 weight percent aluminum to result in an alloy
with a modulus of over 21 x 10 6  psi. This modulus is above the modulus for
conventional castable titanium alloys, such as the commercially-available castable
titanium alloy containing 6 weight percent aluminum and 4 weight percent vanadium. 
     Applications for this alloy include golf club heads, which can be fabricated
by casting a golf club head body from the above alloy and welding a sole plate onto the
cast golf club head body. This provides a golf club head with superior energy transfer
characteristics for hitting a golf ball.
