Abstract: A hydrostatic power steering device (11) is provided of the type including a primary, spool valve (35), and a follow-up, sleeve valve (37). During normal operation, relative rotation of the spool and sleeve define one or more variable flow control orifices and these orifices have a first area versus deflection relationship when the sleeve is biased to its first position. The sleeve may be moved toward a second position in response to an input (95,99) other than rotation of the vehicle steering wheel. In the second axial position of the sleeve, the flow control orifice has a different area versus deflection relationship, the difference providing a useful steering or ancillary function.

IPC: G01S15/89
Filed: 1993-06-22
Abstract: Fan-shaped vertical beams are used on research and survey ships for charting and exploration of waterways. Measurement errors occur in the measured depth values as a result of the fan-shaped beams being directed obliquely and as a result of the surface elements of the bed being surveyed having different characteristics. In order to determine the accuracy of the measured depth values, a reference value as well as a mean measurement error and standard deviation are determined from a limited number of preceding and subsequent measured values. Accuracy levels can be allocated to the measured depth values by comparing the standard deviation with threshold values which can be preset. The method can be used advantageously for continuously measuring multi-vertical-beam devices (multi-beam echo sounders). <IMAGE>

Abstract: When credit cards are used which are paid in advance and are used for claiming services, for example using a public telephone, the credit card contains a memory for value units, from which value units are deducted, that is to say marked as used, after the service has been utilised. The credit card contains, in this case, a test code circuit which generates response data in accordance with a secret algorithm from a test word supplied. When the credit card is used, a check is therefore made whether this is a genuine credit card. It is then possible to utilise services by deceit, using a genuine credit card and the test code circuit contained therein and by means of a separate manipulatable memory. To prevent this, the algorithm of the test code circuit is changed in dependence on the content of the memory of the correct credit card and the credit card is in each case checked by means of the test code circuit at least after the deduction of value units. As a result, the deceitful use of an external memory is no longer possible. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a transmission power level monitoring apparatus suitable for use in a digital communication system using a TDMA method. The transmission power level monitoring apparatus detects start and end times of a transmission slot in each TDMA frame. An A/D converter (24) is triggered at the start and end times so as to convert transmission power into a digital signal. Then it is decided whether or not the transmission power is in an improper state during a transmission slot and a nontransmission slot in each TDMA frame. If the answer is yes, then suitable measures are taken, such as a display of a message indicative of its improper state on a display device (25), the transmission of data indicative of its improper state to another system (30) and/or turning off (26) a power source for a power amplifier of a transmitter (23).

Abstract: Most output display devices such as printers and displays require certain minimum timings for delivery of data to be displayed. The use of compressed image stores as input to these displays requires that the image be decompressed within the minimum time limits as required by the display. The present invention discloses an effective method for ensuring that these minimum timings are met through the division of the image into bands (B1,B2,..Bn) and the recompression of those bands that fail to meet the minimum timing requirements of the output display device (7).

Abstract: The tapping apparatus includes a body (A) that receives a cutter (32) and a sleeve (34). The cutter (32) and the sleeve (34) advance together to form an opening in the sidewall of a main conduit (B) about which the body is secured. The sleeve (34) includes external threads that grip into the conduit sidewall. Thereafter, retraction of the cutter (32) leaves the sleeve (34) in place to secure the tapping apparatus to the conduit (B) and establish fluid communication therethrough. The cutter (32) and sleeve (34) preferably have different thread pitches so that the sleeve advances at a slightly faster rate than the cutter. This facilitates sealing engagement between the external surface of the main conduit (B) and the body (A). Additionally, a one-way drive arangement is provided between the sleeve and cutter so that once the sleeve is positioned in place, the cutter can be removed without altering the location of the sleeve.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon feedstock is cracked in reactor 2. Used catalyst is sent to a regenerator 4 in which coke deposits on the catalysed are oxidised in the presence of the gas mixture comprising oxygen and inert gas (e.g. CO₂). Regenerated catalyst is returned to the reactor 2. A cracked hydrocarbon product stream flows to a fractionating column 6. An overhead stream from the fractionating column 6 is cooled so as to form a liquid-vapour mixture. Downstream of phase separation in an accumulator 10, a stream of the vapour phase ("wet gas") has methane and hydrogen separated therefrom by pressure swing adsorption in plant 8. Higher hydrocarbons than methane are adsorbed in the plant 8 and on regeneration of the adsorbent form a desorbed gas fraction which is sent to an upstream wet gas compressor 12 and from there to a downstream wet gas compressor 16. A compressed wet gas stream is sent from the downstream wet gas compressor 16 to further hydrocarbon processing units (not shown). The feed to the PSA plant 8 may be taken from upstream of the compressor 12 or from intermediate the compressors 12 and 16, or from both locations. Throughput of hydrocarbon feedstock through the cracking plant is able to increased.
