Abstract: L'invention concerne un endoscope (11) à fibre optique qui peut être exposé à des environnements à température variable sans être endommagé, et qui présente une tolérance élevée pour ce qui concerne les effets de focalisation. L'endoscope (11) comporte une fibre optique (27) dont l'extrémité proximale (45) est axialement mobile et l'extrémité distale (38) est fixe. Ainsi, l'endoscope (11) peut être utilisé de manière appropriée dans pratiquement tous les environnements, même ceux produisant des effets de focalisation élevés, tels que la dilatation thermique de la fibre optique (27) ou les tolérances mécaniques relatives au placement des éléments de l'oculaire (43), sans qu'il soit nécessaire de refaire fréquemment la mise au point de l'image.

Abstract: A negative-acting color proofing method provides a photosensitive element having a cover sheet; release layer having a polymer with phenolic groups; color layer having a binder, polymerizable monomer, colorant, and optional photoinitiator; a photoadhering layer, having a photosensitive polymer having unsaturated, photocrosslinkable groups and a molecular weight greater than about 3,000, a polymerizable monomer having at least one unsaturated group, and an optional photoinitiator. A at least one of the color layer and the photoadhering layer has a photoinitiator; and a first thermoplastic adhesive layer. A photomask is applied onto the thermoplastic adhesive layer and one imagewise exposes the color layer and photoadhering layers to actinic radiation through the photomask. After removing the photomask, the photosensitive element is laminated to a temporary receiver. After peeling apart the temporary receiver and the cover sheet, exposed areas of the color layer attach to the temporary receiver an unexposed areas are removed with the cover sheet thereby forming a colored negative image on the temporary receiver sheet. These steps are optionally repeated with another photosensitive element having a different colorant and adhere an image to the image previously produced on the temporary receiver sheet. The temporary receiver sheet is laminated to a permanent receiver sheet via the images with heat and pressure. The temporary receiver sheet is optionally removed.

Abstract: A speech compression system called "Transform Predictive Coding", or TPC, provides for encoding 7 kHz wideband speech (16 kHz sampling) at a target bit-rate range of 16 to 32 kb/s (1 to 2 bits/sample). The system uses short-term and long-term prediction to remove the redundancy in speech. A prediction residual is transformed and coded in the frequency domain to take advantage of knowledge in human auditory perception. The TPC coder uses only open-loop quantization and therefore has a fairly low complexity. The speech quality of TPC is essentially transparent at 32 kb/s, very good at 24 kb/s, and acceptable at 16 kb/s.

Abstract: An SE electron source for an apparatus utilising an electron beam, such as an electron microscope or electron beam lithography machine, has a needle with a tip having a cone angle of less than 15° and a radius of curvature of less than 0.5 µm. In an electron gun using such an SE electron source, the range of variations in probe current caused by a given variation in control voltage increases. Therefore, one extraction voltage setting is sufficient. Furthermore, the value of the extraction voltage decreases. Damage to the needle tip due to electric discharge is prevented. This adds to the stability of the electron gun.

Abstract: An automatic clutch system includes an operating cylinder which is interconnected through a release lever with a friction element engaging mechanism. The operating cylinder is communicated with a master cylinder and an auxiliary cylinder through a hydraulic passage. A worm wheel driven by a motor has first and second connecting points which are oppositely disposed with respect to a rotation axis of the worm wheel. The first connecting point is interconnected with a piston rod of the master cylinder and has a first distance from the rotation axis. The second connecting point is interconnecting with a piston rod of the auxiliary cylinder and has a second distance from the rotation axis. The second distance is set smaller than the first distance so that the volume change of the auxiliary cylinder side is smaller than that of the mater cylinder side. Therefore, this cylinder arrangement functions stable to cancel a reaction force of a pressure spring of the friction element engaging mechanism to the worm wheel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antennas. A characteristic of many antennas is that the beam shape is difficult to control. Another problem which arises in the case of a planar array is that that of isolation: signals emitted from one linear array will couple with adjacent arrays and cause interference problems with the power amplifiers of said other array. The present invention provides a linear array antenna comprising a number of radiating elements, wherein an outwardly extending ground plane flange extends adjacent each side of the linear array of radiating elements and beyond the plane of the linear array, whereby the azimuth beam shape is controlled. In the case of a planar array comprising a number of parallel spaced apart arrays, additional benefits are obtained wherein the coupling of signals from one array to another are reduced. There is also provided a method of receiving and transmitting signals by means of an antenna of this construction.
