Abstract: The stepper motor is connected to a servo unit whose position can be determined via a position indicator. In the stable operating state of the stepper motor, the control of the stepper motor is undertaken by a control procedure. If the rotor position deviates from the position of the field vector in the unstable state within a maximum permissible limit (capture limit), the rotor position and the actual rotor speed are determined on the basis of information from the position indicator. These data are used to determine a field vector, the system switches over to capture operation and the field vector is set uniquely to the position of the rotor. Thereafter, the system reverts to controlled operation. Due to the fact that a certain unstable region is allowed in the torque characteristic of the stepper motor, the requirements for accuracy placed on the position indicator are reduced. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A switched reluctance motor has a stator with a plurality of salient motor poles disposed about a central bore. A rotor having an even number of rotor poles is disposed for rotation in the central bore. Magnetizing phase windings are associated with the stator poles for selectively generating magnetic fields which extend from the stator poles into the central bore and define an even number of phases. The windings are disposed such that each stator pole is adjacent two phase windings of opposite polarity with the magnetic flux through each stator varying in direction with the energization of the various phases. The rotor includes a plurality of rotor segments disposed about the periphery of the rotor. Each segment is magnetically active and defines a pair of spaced rotor poles. The spacing between rotor poles for a given rotor segment is substantially the same as that between adjacent stator poles. The rotor further includes non-magnetic material disposed between the rotor segments to magnetically isolate one rotor segment from another so magnetic flux between an adjacent pair of stator poles only passes through the nearest rotor segment. The non-magnetic material provides structural integrity to the rotor and holds the rotor segments fixedly in place.

Title: Moving bed process for carbothermally synthesizing nonoxide ceramic powders.
Inventor: HENLEY JOHN P
IPC: C01B31/36
Filed: 1992-02-27
Abstract: Carbothermally reduce a metal oxide to its corresponding metal nitride or metal carbide powder in a vertical gravity flow reactor by adding precursor pellets containing the metal oxide, a thermally decomposed binder material and carbon or a source of carbon directly to a heated reaction zone within the reactor. The pellets form a pellet bed, the top of which must be maintained within the heated reaction zone. The binder material is a blend of wheat and corn starches, optionally in conjunction with another binder such as melamine. The binder material thermally decomposes to a carbonaceous residue which functions both as an additional source of carbon and as a binder for the precursor pellets. The reactor may be modified by adding an internal vent line to remove volatile materials from the heated reaction zone before they have an opportunity to condense on internal reactor surfaces.

Abstract: Un procédé et un dispositif qui permettent de réduire la consommation d'énergie lors de l'exploitation d'éléments à filer peuvent être utilisés pour entraîner les rotors de filage de métiers à filer "open-end", la broche de métiers continus à l'eau ou l'ailette de filage. L'objet de l'invention est de maintenir la consommation d'énergie pendant le fonctionnement d'éléments à filer à un niveau minimal constant. A cet effet, la force de compression entre chaque élément à filer et l'élément d'entraînement indirect est réglée en fonction de la différence momentanée entre les vitesses de rotation de l'élément à filer et de l'élément d'entraînement indirect pendant leur exploitation stationnaire à des vitesses de rotation nominales ou lors de changements de la vitesse de rotation, de sorte que le glissement entre l'élément d'entraînement indirect et l'élément à filer reste constant dans le temps.

Title: Use of haloalkyl derivatives of reporter molecules to analyze metabolic activity in cells
Inventor: HAUGLAND RICHARD P
IPC: C12Q1/04
Filed: 1992-08-21
Abstract: The subject invention provides a method for analyzing the metabolic activity in cells by improving the retention of a detectable reporter molecule only in intact cells where a particular enzyme is present. In particular, improved retention results from a two part process involving conjugation of haloalkyl-substituted derivatives of a reporter molecule with intracellular cysteine-containing peptides while unblocking the reporter molecule. The method for analyzing metabolic activity of cells involves the use of a substrate having the form XR-REPORTER-BLOCK wherein -BLOCK is a group selected to be removable by action of a specific analyte, to give REPORTER spectral properties different from those of the substrate, -REPORTER- is a molecule that, when no longer bound to BLOCK by a BLOCK-REPORTER bond, has spectral properities different from those of the substrate, and XR- is a haloalkyl moiety that can covalently react with an intracellular thiol (Z-S-H) to form a thioether conjugate (Z-S-R-). After the substrate enters the cells, the analyte removes BLOCK to make REPORTER detectable by the change in spectral properties, and the haloalkyl XR reacts with the intracellular thiol to form the thioether conjugate inside the cells, which is well-retained in the cells.

Abstract: To calibrate a photodetector, a rotating disk with a slot is disposed in a light beam with decreasing speed from a defined maximum rotational speed to a defined minimum speed, while magnitudes and times of signals are read out and stored. Vernier pairs of signals occur in adjacent readout intervals, and non-vernier signals exclude the verniers. Readout times for verniers are used to estimate a preliminary function of rotations versus time. From the function are estimated an occurrence time for each pair and period of disk rotation at the time. Vernier fraction is the ratio of one signal in the pair to the sum of the pair. A time offset is the product of vernier fraction, slot fraction of the disk and the estimated period. Occurrence times corrected with the time offset are utilized to fit a corrected function of disk rotations versus time. Points of time for the non-vernier signals are determined from the corrected function, each point corresponding to disk rotations to a corresponding non-vernier signal. These points of time are employed with corresponding signals for linearly calibrating the photodetector.

Abstract: A ski binding has a safety release apparatus in which a release spring (40) bears with one of its ends on a ski binding housing (2) and is connected by non-positive fitting to a moving component. One of at least two parts movable relative to each other can be guided out of the normal position, against spring force, over a limited travel into the release position. Shortly before this is reached, the movable part actuates a signal emitter which is to indicate the impending release. In this arrangement, the movable component is either a release plate (13) connected to the release spring (40) by non-positive fitting or a pivotable or displaceable locking member of a locking mechanism. Moreover, the signal emitter (61) triggers an optical and/or acoustic signal via the interposition of an electronic circuit (60). Expediently, the electronic circuit (60) is designed to compare the initial signal from the signal emitter connected thereto with at least one predetermined reference value, and to emit the optical and/or acoustic signal when the initial signal exceeds or falls short of this reference value. <IMAGE>
