IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 1993-06-08
Abstract: Television signal processing apparatus, including, particularly, a line doubler, a television standards converter, a television slow motion processor and a video information compressor incorporates means for detecting twenty-five frame per second motion picture film sources in 50 Hz television signals, such as PAL, SECAM, 50 Hz NTSC, 50 Hz HDTV and 50 Hz monochrome television signals. In a first embodiment, the detection scheme looks for differences in motion between a field and the previous field, on one hand, and between the same field and the subsequent field, on the other hand. In a second embodiment, the detection scheme compares differences in motion between the two pairs of fields of the same polarity in adjacent frames. In both embodiments, the detection schemes include signal treatment, such as filtering, thresholds and signal integration in order to assure that the scheme responds to true picture motion rather than noise or dropouts in the television signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une magnétorésistance (MR) et une résistance de type non magnétorésistif (NMR) constituées d'antimoniure d'indium ou d'un autre matériau magnétorésistif situées sur un substrat, à proximité thermique l'une de l'autre. On forme sur la magnétorésistance (MR) des bandes de mise en court-circuit à effet de Hall afin de la rendre beaucoup plus magnétorésistive que la résistance detype non magnétorésistif. Un miroir de courant (80) fait s'écouler des courants égaux constants ne variant pas avec la température dans la magnétorésistance (MR) et la résistance de type non magnétorésistif (NMR) de manière à y produire des tensions de magnétorésistance et de résistance de type non magnétorésistif. Les tensions de la magnétorésistance et de la résistance de type non magnétorésistif varient également selon la température. La tension de la magnétorésistance varie aussi selon le flux magnétique appliqué. Un comparateur (66) soustrait la tension de la résistance de type non magnétorésistif de la tension de la magnétorésistance afin de produire un signal de sortie ne variant que selon le flux magnétique, la variation de température étant annulée. Le miroir de courant (80) présente une impédance de charge équivalente essentiellement infinie de façon que la tension de la magnétorésistance varie le plus possible avec la variation de la résistance de la magnétorésistance (MR), le capteur (70) présentant une excursion de tension de sortie la plus élevée possible.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de suspension hydropneumatique, notamment pour automobiles, qui comprend au moins une jambe de force (2) hydraulique qui lors de ses mouvements de suspension sert d'antagoniste à un accumulateur hydropneumatique à piston (6) par l'intermédiaire d'un milieu hydraulique. L'accumulateur à piston (6) comprend un piston de séparation (22) qui sépare une chambre d'accumulation hydraulique (24) d'une chambre à ressorts (26) contenant un milieu compressible, notamment un gaz. Le piston de séparation (22) est sollicité d'une part par une pression hydraulique (Ph) provenant de la chambre d'accumulation (24) et d'autre part par une pression pneumatique (Pp) provenant de la chambre à ressorts (26). Outre les forces (Fh, Fp) résultant de la pression hydraulique (Ph) et de la pression pneumatique (Pp) appliquées au piston séparateur (22), au moins une force élastique supplémentaire s'exerce sur le piston (6). Cette force élastique supplémentaire est produite par au moins un élément-ressort (28; 34; 36) placé à l'extérieur de la chambre à ressorts (26).

Abstract: La présente invention est fondée sur l'observation récente selon laquelle la stimulation de cellules myéloïdes au repos n'entraîne pas l'activation de toutes les molécules Mac-1 exprimées par la cellule. Seules des sous-populations sélectionnées de molécules Mac-1 sont activées et deviennent capables de lier des ligands. En outre, on a trouvé que les molécules Mac-1 activées possèdent des épitopes à spécificité d'activation qui les distinguent des molécules Mac-1 non activées. Sur la base de ces observations, des anticorps qui se lient sélectivement à des molécules Mac-1 activées mais sont pratiquement incapables de se lier à des Mac-1 non activées sont également décrits.

Abstract: The invention relates preferably to a semishell-shaped gripper for sheet printing machines. The object of the invention is to develop a gripper of low weight which is attached without play on the gripper shaft and minimises the slip of the gripper tip on the printing carrier. This is achieved in that the gripper finger (2) which surrounds the gripper shaft (1) in a sector of a circle has congruent cutouts (11) in its side walls (17) in such a way that separate active surfaces (8, 9) are formed at its ends. The active surfaces (8, 9) are assigned to the gripper shaft (1) with frictional engagement and, in conjunction with the resulting force, form a triangle of forces. The gripper holder (4) has on its upper side a depression (12) extending parallel to the gripper shaft (1) and, with the lower edge of a web (16) connecting the side walls (17), forms a releasably positive-locking connection between the gripper holder (4) and the gripper finger (2). The gripper tip (3) has a raised holding surface (15) which has radii (R) which run out at its circumference. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for a machine for brewing drinks to heat and emulsify liquids, especially for the making of the milk-coffee drink "Cappuccino". The device (1) has a tube (2) with a nozzle (22) which adjoins the bore (10) in the lower section (5) and from whose outlet opening (24) superheated steam emerges, during operation. A nozzle (22) is surrounded by the tube (2) in such a way that an annular chamber (26) open in the flow direction (Y) results around it. The open end (18) of the annular chamber (26) extends beyond the outlet opening (24) of the nozzle (22). Formed on the tube (2) at the height of the outlet opening (24) of the nozzle (22) are passages (29) through which the air required for emulsification can penetrate into the annular chamber (26). Furthermore, means (30) are attached to the tube (2) which make it possible for the user to maintain a certain distance (L) between the outlet opening (24) of the nozzle (22) and the surface (43) of the liquid by visual inspection (40). By means of this device according to the invention, the handling during the milk frothing-up process is considerably simplified in that, with the aid of the visual inspection (40) via an operator, the distance (L) of the outlet opening (24) of the nozzle (22) from the surface (43) of the milk can easily be kept constant. As a result, for a simple design of the device (1) a good froth result is achieved and the frothing-up process is even accelerated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved method is proposed for the preparation of a strontium-substituted or unsubstituted lanthanum manganite powder by the calcination of a composite carbonate of the respective metallic elements formed by mixing an aqueous solution of a water-soluble carbonate and an aqueous solution of inorganic salts, e.g., nitrates, of the respective metallic elements. Different from conventional procedures in which the aqueous carbonate solution is added to the aqueous nitrate solution of the metallic elements, an unexpected improvement can be obtained in the particle size distribution and particle configuration of the precipitated carbonate and hence of the manganite powder when the aqueous solution of the nitrates of the respective metallic elements is added to the aqueous carbonate solution while maintaining the pH of the precipitation medium in the range from 7 to 9.
