Abstract: The invention relates to a spring plate clutch consisting of a cylindrical body 1 whose two axial ends each have an end part 2, 3 and slots 12, which are arranged between the two end parts at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the body 1 and are located in axially separated cross-sectional planes. At least in the region of the slots there is provided a longitudinal hole 14, coaxial to the longitudinal axis 4, in which the slots 12 extend. The slots 12 of one cross- sectional plane are separated from one another by spring plates 15 which are connected to one another and to the end parts 2, 3 via a number of radially running webs 15, located in the respective cross- sectional planes, the number of webs 15 corresponding to the number of slots 12 per cross-sectional plane. The cross-sectional width of the webs 15 is a maximum at the jacket surface 10 of the body 1. The cross-section of the webs 15 is, in particular, of a mushroom shape. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Pattern recognition in the industrial sector employs for the most part three-dimensional image analysing processes. In order to carry out simple, especially planar recognition tasks with respect to the position and orientation of objects (1) whose form is known, recourse is made likewise to three-dimensional recorded image data. Due to the prevailing limitation of the degrees of freedom, however, it is necessary to treat as variables only two coordinates of a plane and one angle of rotation  phi , which characterises a rotation of the known object (1) inside of the plane. The intersection with a primitive volume (2), especially a circular cylinder, yields lines of intersection (3), which are to be employed as comparative criteria between a measurement object and a reference position. The lines of intersection (3) are constant in shape and are described only as a function of the angle of rotation  phi . <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of detecting the interaction between a metabolite and an NMR contrast agent comprising paramagnetic metal ions, present together in a biological fluid. The method comprises subjecting a sample of the fluid to NMR specrtoscopy and comparing the results to those obtained for a sample of the biological fluid from which the contrast agent is substantially absent. 
     The NMR contrast agents, when added to the biological material under investigation, cause specific changes in the chemical shift or relaxation times of specific resonances in the spectra. They can thus be of assistance in the assignment of particular peaks and in the general interpretation of the spectra. 
     The method can be used with a variety of biological or body fluid, such as urine and plasma serum, and can either be performed in vivo or on extracted samples of these fluids.

Abstract: A method of entering information of the profile of a workpiece in an automatic NC data preparation apparatus. Profile information is input interactively without giving any particular attention to the chamfering or rounding at corners of a workpiece. After the definition of the profile is finished, the interactive screen (13a) for inputting the corner shapes is displayed on a display unit (13), angles subtended by the neighboring corner elements (EL;, EL i+l  (i = 1,2, ...)) are calculated, and the intersecting angles are compared with the set angles to find the intersecting positions that can be regarded as protruding or indented corners. Under this condition, decision is made of (i) which set is collectively defined, all the corners (including protruding and indented corners), or the protruding corners alone, or the indented corners alone; and (ii) which process is done, rounding or chamfering. Then the profile information thus specified, including predetermined dimensions, are entered for the particular set of corners (either the protruding or indented corners above or both of them).

Title: Straightness interferometer system
Inventor: CHANEY RAYMOND JOHN
IPC: G01D5/26
Filed: 1988-08-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a straightness interferometer system, for measuring transverse deviations in the relative 
movement of machine parts. The preferred embodiment comprises a laser (30) which directs a single frequency laser 
beam, 
polarised in two orthogonal modes, along a principal axis P onto a beam splitter (24) which splits the beam into its two 
modes to provide two secondary beams (26,28). One of the secondary beams (26) is undeviated from the principal axis, 
the 
other (28) is deviated through a small angle. A roof-top reflector-prism combination (30/40) is positioned in the paths 
of 
both secondary beams in a plane normal to the principal axis, the prism being arranged to deflect the deviated beam 
into a 
direction parallel to the principal axis so that both beams are reflected back to the beam splitter where they 
re-combine to 
form a combined beam. The combined beam is passed to a detector system (38) for detecting interference fringes repro­
duced from the combined beam caused by relative change in the path lengths of the two secondary beams as the reflector 
undergoes movements transverse to the principal axis. Three types of beam splitter are specifically disclosed, two of 
which 
show a further preferred feature of displacing one of the beams transversely to solve the dead path problem of a prior 
art 
system. A variety of combinations of the various elements of the preferred system are discussed but not all are 
illustrated.
