Inventor: ENOCH CLAUS
IPC: H01H13/70

Abstract: An electrical switch wherein material is cut out of a sheet or web (1) of electrically
conductive material such that a plurality of sets of terminals (5, 6, 7) are formed integrally
with the sheet (1). A housing is moulded onto each set of terminals such that the inner
terminals (7) are within the housing. Operative elements are mounted in the housing. The
individual switches are separated from the sheet (1) either by severing the terminals 5 at
15 and 25 and the terminals 6 at 16, thereby forming a switch with a short distance (e.g. 4
mm) between the terminal ends of terminals (16), or by severing the terminals 6 at 16 and
26 and the terminals 5 at 15, thereby forming a switch with a longer distance (e.g. 6 mm)
between the terminal ends of terminal (15). Thus, the switch has a set of at least two
metallic terminals (5, 6), each of which comprises at least two sub-sets, wherein each sub-set
corresponds to a different application of the switch.

Abstract: The method involves converting motion vectors related to half images to vectors related to full images so that the vectors are exclusively related to the last image. Missing vectors of one or more full image blocks are detected by filtering vectors of blocks in the same or last image. Block line and column pairs with the lowest x-component and y-component scatter are selected from the processed vectors. The global vectors are computed for each full image using only selected lines and columns further selected from a medium scatter region.

Abstract: A mask generation subroutine (400) forms Z number of stacked n by m
blank mask matrix arrays to provide a plurality of columnar mask
locations. The subroutine (400) then selects randomly any previously
unselected column of mask locations from the stack of blank mask matrix
arrays and assigns best print mode parameters to the individual mask
locations in the selected column. The process of selecting and assigning is
repeated until all columns of mask locations have been selected and all
mask locations have been assigned best print mode parameters to provide
a complete set of Z number of configured mask matrix arrays. A control
program (100) selects desired ones of the Z number of masks and applies
the selected mask to control indicia patterns so that the depositing of
indicia forming material in adjacent pixel locations is spaced in time to
occur in different ones of the Z passes.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an improved high frequency acoustic speaker center cone, which may be located at a speaker coil tubular support, tube wherein the cone has a plurality of thin, pie-shaped segments radiating outwardly with each of the segments having an arcuated cross-section, so as to create a convex shape towards its center. The segments are highly concave toward the center and less concave with increasing radial distance away from the center. The width of the segments may increase linearly with radial distance so as to create a constant acoustical resistance radially. In another embodiment, the present invention is directed to a system containing both the aforesaid center cone, an outer cone with similar radial characteristics but being concave towards its center. The segments of the outer cone preferably terminate at a flexible, high sound absorption ring. The center cone fits within an orifice at the center of the outer cone.

Abstract: A hydroelastic engine mount comprises a conically-shaped hollow
rubber support (10) extending between an armature (14) for
securing to a vehicle body, and a fixture (12) for securing to
the engine. The hollow interior of the support (10) defines a
working chamber (22) which is filled with hydraulic fluid and is
in communication with a compensation chamber (36) via a conduit
(38). Vibrations of the engine are partially damped by the
rubber support (10). Further damping is provided by the damping
effect imposed on movement of the hydraulic fluid in the conduit
(38), particularly according to the resonant frequency applied
to the hydraulic fluid within the conduit. The conduit (38)
incorporates a slidable element (74) having a through passageway
(76). At relatively low vibration amplitudes, the sliding
element (74) is carried to and fro along the conduit by the
moving fluid and has substantially no effect; damping is
dependent on the dimensions of the conduit (38) itself. However,
when the sliding element (74) is held stationary within the
conduit (38), the to and fro movement of the fluid includes
movement through the passageway (76), the dimensions of which now
substantially determine the damping characteristics.
