Title: Reduction du bruit
Inventor: MUNDAY EDWARD
IPC: H03H17/02
Filed: 1989-01-18
Granted: 1994-02-16
Abstract: Un système de réduction du bruit servant à améliorer des signaux vocaux perturbés effectue une décomposition spectrale sur le signal, fait passer chaque composant spectral à travers un étage non linéaire qui atténue progressivement les composants spectraux d'intensité inférieure (bruit sans corrélation) tout en laissant passer les composants spectraux d'intensité supérieure (signaux vocaux avec corrélation) en ne les atténuant relativement pas, puis reconstitue le signal. Des blocs de signaux perturbés sont transformés en domaine de fréquence par un dispositif à transformation accélérée de Fourier (dispositif FFT) (1), avec fenêtrage (1a). Chaque bloc transformé est ensuite traité (2) pour présenter une caractéristique de transfert non linéaire, dont la courbe est linéaire au-dessus d'une région coudée à courbe douce, dont la pente change au-dessous de cette région et qui est transformée à nouveau en un signal de domaine temporel reconstitué avec réduction du bruit par un dispositif à transformation accélérée de Fourier inverse (dispositif IFFT) (3), avec chevauchement (3a). Une commande de niveau (4, 4a) fait correspondre le signal avec cette caractéristique. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, la caractéristique peut varier entre des bandes de fréquence et peut être appariée à des formants de signaux vocaux par poursuite des formants au moyen d'une technique utilisant des paires de raies spectrales (technique LSP).

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for dosing viscous dusts, in particular fibrous wood-grinding dusts for dust furnaces with an intermediate storage container for receiving the dust charged, with an adjustable conveying device at the lower end of the intermediate storage container for the dosed removal of the dust from the intermediate storage container into a dust extraction line which is acted upon by compressed air and leads to the burner, and with a compensating line between the chute of the conveying device and the head end of the intermediate storage container for removal of leak air which has escaped from the dust extraction line into the device. The invention envisages that the conveying device is mounted with a hopperless intermediate storage container on a gravimetric measuring device for the dust removed, that the outlet of the conveying device opens into a chute forming a part of the compensating line and the dust removed passes from there via a second conveying device, which serves for explosionproof disconnection, into the dust conveying line, and that the cross-sectional area of the compensating line is dimensioned in such a manner that the rate of fall of the dust carried along with the leak air is greater than the flow rate of the leak air in the compensating line. The invention makes it possible to produce a dosing apparatus for viscous dusts for unsupervised continuous operation with an internal continuously operating leak air/dust separation and recycling. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method and apparatus for continuously sensing and monitoring the conditions of tensed flexible endless metallic casting belts (12,14) and their insulative coatings in a continuous metal casting machine. The flatness of a casting belt (12, 14) is continuously monitored and thereby also the condition of its thermal protective coating. One or more non-contacting eddy-current sensing probes (36, 38) are placed in proximity to the reverse coolant side of a belt (12, 14) for sensing and measuring the distance of the belt from the probe to reveal irregularities in the flatness of the belt while it travels past the probe. A deficiency of insulative belt coating can cause variations in belt flatness during casting. By monitoring such variations an operator of the continuous casting machine is alerted that the coating needs to be retouched or replaced without interrupting the casting process. Or such monitoring can alert the operator that the belt (12, 14) has become inherently not flat. <IMAGE>
