Abstract: An improved method is disclosed for forming a strata of overlapping sheets suitable for use in a pop-up dispensing system. The sheets are cut from ribbons having at least one side edge which has a knee-like protrusion, with the opposing side edge being either, substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the ribbon, or having one or more knee-like protrusions formed on the opposing edge. The ribbons are then phased so that the knee-like protrusion on one edge aligns with either the essentially parallel edge of an adjoining ribbon or a knee-like protrusion on the side edge of the adjoining ribbon. Phasing can be accomplished by either, aligning knee-like protrusions on the side edges of adjoining ribbons, or reversing the orientation of the side edges of alternating ribbons. After phasing, the ribbons are overlapped creating a series of predetermined, areas of greatest overlap adjoining areas of least overlap such that successive ribbons are bonded only by the interfacial interaction between ribbons. By overlapping multiple ribbons in this manner a strata is formed which is then folded to interleave the ribbons. A resulting stack of interleaved ribbons is cut to form blocks of individual interleaved sheets. The process can be accomplished manually or in a continuous production process.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for measuring the speed of a vehicle by transmitting a wave beam directed at the vehicle, receiving a part of the wave beam reflected by the vehicle, comparing the reflected beam part with the transmitted wave beam and deriving from this comparison the speed of the vehicle, wherein during the speed measurement the position of the vehicle is also determined. A vehicle committing an offense can thus be identified unambiguously in a recording which is made after detection of the speeding offense. The speed of the vehicle can be determined from a difference in wavelength detected during the comparison between the reflected beam part and the transmitted wave beam, while the position of the vehicle is determined from a time lag detected during the comparison between the moment of transmitting and the moment of receiving the reflected beam part.

Abstract: In an apparatus that rapidly cools heat treated metal strips with a recirculating nitrogen-hydrogen cooling gas mixture having a hydrogen content which ranges between 15%-50%, and a recirculation circuit for the gas mixture having a fan for creating a flow though recirculation ducts connected, through expandable compensator corrugations, upstream to at least one gas/water exchanger, a safety system operates with the exchanger. The safety system includes a housing having a main flow area upstream of the exchanger and into which recirculating cooling gas flows. A first register is interposed across the main flow area for selectively switching between open and closed states thereby passing or blocking flow through a major portion of the main flow area. At least one bypass flow area is defined within the housing and located adjacent the main flow area. A second register is interposed across the bypass flow area for selectively switching between open and closed states thereby passing or blocking flow through the bypass area. Respective sensors react to a break in the strip or the corrugation, or an interruption of power, and actuators rapidly respond to a plurality of dangerous conditions for activating the sensing means and for switching the first and second registers in accordance with the particular dangerous conditions.

Abstract: On décrit un amplificateur à fibre optique à étages multiples comprenant un premier étage d'amplificateur à fibre Raman couplé à un amplificateur à fibre dopé aux terres rares qui fournit un deuxième étage d'amplification. Des signaux de pompage à deux longueurs d'onde sont injectés dans l'amplificateur Raman et propagés dans une direction opposée à celle des signaux d'entrée. Comme l'amplificateur Raman n'absorbe pas complètement les signaux de pompage, un trajet optique séparé est prévu pour acheminer le signal de pompage excédentaire vers le deuxième étage d'amplification pour y être pompé. Les caractéristiques de bande passante de gain de l'amplificateur Raman sont déterminées par les propriétés spectrales du signal de pompage et lesdites caractéristiques peuvent être sélectionnées par une sélection appropriée des longueurs d'onde des signaux de pompage. Dans une forme de réalisation donnée, les signaux de pompage sont sélectionnés de telle manière que le premier étage de l'amplificateur Raman présente une cractéristique acoustique relativement faible. D'autre part, le deuxième étage de l'amplificateur à fibre Raman est conçu de manière à présenter une cractéristique de puissance relativement élevée. Par ailleurs, pour augmenter la bande passante de gain de l'amplificateur optique intégral, les caractéristiques de bande passante de gain des premier et deuxième étages d'amplification sont sélectionnées de sorte qu'elles se chevauchent plutôt qu'elles ne coincident.

Abstract: Un processeur est configuré pour prédécoder des octets d'instructions avant leur stockage dans une antémémoire d'instructions. Les informations de prédécodage produites par le processeur comprennent des indications de limite d'instructions identifiant les octets d'instructions constituant les limites d'instructions et des indications de branchement identifiant les instructions constituant les instructions de branchement. La combinaison des indications de branchement et des indications de limite d'instructions permet au mécanisme de prédiction de branchement de localiser les instructions de branchement dans un groupe d'octets d'instructions extraits de l'antémémoire d'instructions par analyse des indications de limite de branchement et d'instructions. Dans un mode de réalisation, le mécanisme de prédiction de branchement essaie de prédire jusqu'à deux instructions de branchement par cycle d'horloge. Par conséquent, le mécanisme de prédiction de branchement analyse les indications de branchement et de limite d'instructions afin de localiser les deux premières instructions de branchement dans un groupe d'octets d'instructions extraits de l'antémémoire d'instructions. Dans un mode de réalisation, les indications de limite d'instructions comprennent un bit de début correspondant à chaque octet d'instruction. Le bit de début est positionné si l'octet d'instruction correspondant est l'octet initial d'une instruction, et il s'efface si l'octet d'instruction correspondant n'est pas l'octet initial d'instruction. Les indications de branchement peuvent, de manière similaire, comprendre un bit de branchement correspondant à chaque octet d'instruction. Si un octet est indiqué comme étant l'octet initial d'une instruction par le bit de début, le bit de branchement est utilisé pour indiquer si oui ou non l'instruction est une instruction de branchement.
