Abstract: A battery-powered hearing aid (1) is programmed via a programming device (2), the hearing aid (1) having a battery (11) and a line connection (3, 4) for connecting the battery (11) to the programming device (2). The programming device uses a variable voltage source (5) and an input comparator (6) with a first and a second input terminal and an output terminal to output a variable voltage to one input of the input comparator (6) and determining the voltage of the hearing aid battery (11) by using the second input of the input comparator (6) of the programming device (2). By ramping the output of the variable voltage source (5) used as a reference, the voltage of the battery (11) can be determined with great accuracy using existing hearing aid programming circuitry.

Abstract: The invention relates to automatic measuring benches. The automatic measurement of the amplitude of an intermodulation spectral line at the output of a TV transmitter is difficult to carry out since this spectral line is often embedded in a nebula of noise, constituted by the spectrum of radiation due to the multiple frequencies of the line frequency. Conventionally the measurement is carried out by making a visual interpretation. When the measurement is carried out automatically, this visual interpretation is not possible. The process according to the invention uses the a priori knowledge of the existence of a threshold at the summit of the spectral line to be measured. It consists in: considering the samples of the spectral signal furnished by the analyser, during a time interval corresponding to the duration of the threshold; considering a sequence of slices in the amplitude scale; counting the number of samples having a value belonging to a given slice, for each of the slices in succession; determining which slice corresponds to the largest number of samples, the value corresponding to this slice constituting the value of the amplitude of the threshold.

Abstract: A valve gated injection molding system having a novel valve member for large volume applications. The elongated valve member (66) has a ribbed insulative portion (94) between the main steel portion (96) and a conductive portion (98) adjacent the tip end (80). The conductive portion (98) provides more rapid cooling when the tip end (80) is seated in the gate in the closed position. The adjacent insulative portion (94) provides a thermal barrier to reduce heat flow along the valve member to the conductive portion (98). This combination avoids sticking of the tip end (80) when the mold opens and thus allows cycle time to be reduced. The conductive portion (98) has an integral beryllium copper plug (108) which is supported by radially extending ribs (102) of the insulative portion (94) to withstand continual repeated impact loading every time the gate is closed.

Abstract: A gas analyzer arrangement for detecting the presence or quantity of a gas of interest includes a source of electromagnetic radiation (52) for directing a light beam through a light conditioning device (54) such that the light beam is collimated into a parallel beam of light. The conditioned light beam is then directed through a gas sample cell (58) which contains a sample of the gas of interest. The gas of interest has associated therewith, vibrational rotational absorption lines specific to that gas and which are effective for altering the light beam according to the absorption characteristics thereof. The altered light beam is then directed to a birefringent etalon device (64) which has been sized specifically to match those absorption lines of the gas of interest. An electro-optical modulator device (68) associated with the birefringent etalon modulates the absorption lines between the transmission spectra maxima and a point between the transmission spectra maxima so that an absorption ratio can be utilized to determine the presence or quantity of the gas of interest.
