Abstract: The drive device (70, 73, 74) of the conveyor belt (38) for bobbin supports can be switched alternately to right and left running of the conveyor belt (38). The conveyor belt (38) for bobbin supports has at least two spaced-apart feed points (76 to 79) for individual bobbin supports (1 to 4) fitted with run-off bobbins. In the section located between the feed points (76 to 79), the conveyor belt (38) has at least one adjustable or switchable conveyance stop (81 to 84). By optional setting of the conveyance stops (81 to 84), the conveyor belt (38) for bobbin supports can be divided into transport sections which are separated from one another and are assigned to selectable feed points (76 to 79).

Abstract: In a galvanic element designed as a wound cell, which is based on a lithium system having a water-free electrolyte, the positive electrode with its supporting frame is clamped in by the slot of a simple metal split pin (6), used as a winding mandrel and current collector, and the contact between the split pin lead and the housing cover (14), as the positive connecting terminal, is produced by means of a leaf spring (17). A high specific compression force is produced in that said leaf spring (17) rests only with the stamped edge of the hole (18) on the thicker head end of the split pin, which head end is designed as an eye (19). The stamping burrs (12), pressed through the electrode and its separator (9), of a small metal plate (10) provide the electrical contact between the lithium electrode (8) and the inner wall of the housing cup (13) as the negative cell terminal.

Abstract: A system for measurement of a distance to a target. Light is emitted from a multi-mode laser and coupled to a sensor assembly. A portion of the light at the sensor assembly is reflected back into the fiber optic cable from which it came. The other portion of the light from the sensor assembly is projected towards the target. Light is reflected from the target and also connected into the optical cable as a target beam. The target beam and the reference beam then are connected through a path of variable length. When the target beam and the reference beam interfere with one another, the path length is determined to be equal to the length to the target.

Abstract: An electrochemical device and method measures the percentage of exhaust gas in the intake air/exhaust gas mixture going to the cylinders of an internal combustion engine. Two electrochemical pump cells (21,31) and a support structure form a restricted volume (40) in communication through an aperture (41) to an ambient of intake air and exhaust gas mixture. Constant current is passed through a first pump cell (21) to cause a portion of oxygen molecules inside the restricted volume to be pumped out. A constant voltage across the second pump cell (31) causes substantially all the remaining O₂ molecules inside the restricted volume to be pumped out. Current flowing in the second pump cell is measured, the current being proportional to the percentage of O₂ inside the restricted volume and hence proportional to the percentage of O₂ in the intake air and exhaust gas mixture, which is a measure of %EGR.

Abstract: To monitor the advance of an orientable drilling head (3), two different magnetic fields are generated in the ground, around a trajectory (10) by means of two conductors (8, 9). The current induced by each magnetic field is allowed to flow through a coil associated with the drilling head. The phase difference between two currents induced in the coil by two different magnetic fields is determined. In each case, the position of the drilling head is derived by combining a measure of the amplitude of the current and said phase difference.

Abstract: A cable television converter with remotely modifiable functionality receives firmware downloaded over a cable television network. The integrity of the firmware is verfied and if valid, the firmware is executed to provide one or more converter funtions. If the firmware is invalid, default operation software contained in ROM is executed instead of the firmware to return the converter to baseline operation. In one embodiment, the converter includes a frequency agile data receiver to receive control instructions on a first data channel and firmware on a second data channel. The receiver is forced back to the first channel if a successful firmware download does not occur on the second channel within a predetermined time period. The firmware is continuously transmitted in short segments, and the converter can continue to receive segments until all the segments of a designated firmware package have been successfully downloaded, unless the predetermined time limit expires sooner.
