Inventor: AUER OTTO HEINRICH
IPC: F23K5/00
Filed: 1988-05-31
Abstract: A valve, in particular a gas valve for the control of the fuel supply to the burner of a heated apparatus, e.g. a boiler, has a valve body (1) which is movable coaxially against a valve seat (4) and is adjustable against the pressure of a spring (14) via a valve shaft (3). Adjustment takes place by means of a handle (9) with a bearing surface (7) of link-type design, against which the head (6) of a slider (5), which is connected coaxially to the valve shaft (3) and mounted in a guide (10), bears positively under the pressure of the spring (14). The movement path of the handle (9), which is preferably of hood- shaped design, can be limited by at least one adjustable stop (25-27). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A detector for aligning a laser beam has been provided. The detector includes an insulative substrate (16), and a thermally conductive planar face (S) attached to the substrate. The face is divided into thermally isolated sectors (12), each sector having the same shape and area. A corresponding thermal sensitive device (26) is provided for each sector. Each sector is in thermal contact with a corre­sponding one of the thermal sensitive devices, and each thermal sensitive device produces a response proportional to the amount of laser energy impinging thereon to thereby provide indication of the misalignment of the laser beam relative to the transport path.

Abstract: A method for compressing an LR (Left-Right), LALR, or SLR parsing table into a compact and time-efficient representation which is machine and language independent, and allows access to table entries with a constant number of primitive operations. The primitive operations used: addition, comparison, and vector indexing, are in general very efficiently implemented on most machines, and are the key to the superior time performance of this method over other methods. Transformations are applied to the parsing table prior to compression that makes the method of the present invention competitive and very often superior to other space-efficient methods.

Abstract: Apparatus for aligning optical fibre cables (12, 14) comprises a dual cantilever beam member (16). A first optical fibre cable (12) is received through and attached to one end (22) of the beam member (16) and a second optical fibre cable (14) is received through and attached to the other end (24) of the beam member (16), causing ends (34, 38) of the cables (12, 14) to be in close proximity to one another. The dual cantilever construction of the beam member (16) allows relative displacement of the optical fibre cable (12, 14) along only one coordinate axis (X) and prevents relative displacement of the cables along the other coordinate axes (Y, Z). A chord-shaped portion (50, 52 - Figure 3) on the end of each optical fibre cable (12, 14) is blocked to define the transmission area (A) between the cable ends and to increase displacement sensitivity of the apparatus.

Abstract: An electrically operated valve has a coil (3) and a movable armature (22). A pressure responsive device (17) is subject to pressure from an inlet (5) and a valve element (9) is operated by the armature (22), when the coil (3) is energised, to close a port (18) in the device (17) and so isolate the inlet (5) from a pressure fluid outlet (19) to a working system, such as a vehicle anti-skid braking system. The device (17) is displaceable under the effect of a pressure differential across it as a result of closing the port, the force derived from the then predominant inlet pressure being transmitted by the valve element (9) to load a spring device (27) connected to the armature. Such spring loading increases the force tending to release the armature and leads to rapid opening of the port (18), when required.

Abstract: An infrared paper web moisture sensor is described which comprises a source of infrared radiation for directing an infrared beam through the web and an infrared detecting unit disposed on the opposite side of the web from the infrared source. The infrared detecting unit measures the transmission of the infrared beam through the web at three separate wavelength regions of the infrared spectrum. The transmission through the web in one wavelength region is primarily sensitive to the moisture content of the web, the transmission of infrared through the web in the second wavelength region is primarily sensitive to the basis weight of the web and the transmission of infrared wavelengths through the web in the third wavelength region of the spectrum provides an indication of the web temperature. Signals are developed indicative of the transmission of infrared through the web in each of these regions, digitized, and fed to the process control computer for the paper mill. The computer combines the values of the digitized signals, via an empirically derived equation, to produce a value indicative of the percentage of moisture in the web. The process control computer utilizes this result to control devices which selectively add moisture to portions of the web or selectively dry portions of the web to thereby produce a web having a uniform moisture content.

Abstract: Here is disclosed a method for measurement of viscosity change in blood or the like comprising steps of disposing a sensor including of an endothermic or exothermic element in blood or the like, stimulating blood or the like so as to cause a viscosity change therein and detecting the viscosity change by continuously measuring any one of changes occurring respectively in a average temperature ϑ w or a surface temperature ϑ s of the sensor containing therein the endothermic or exothermic element, a differential temperature ϑ w - ϑ ∞ or ϑ s - ϑ ∞ between a temperature ϑ ∞ of blood or the like and ϑ w or ϑ s, a kinematic viscosity ν of blood or the like and a heat transfer coefficient on the sensor surface. Such measurement may be performed by a sensor comprising an electric insulator through which lead wire extends, metallic wire wound around the electric insulator and connected at opposite ends to the portions of the lead wire exposed on the surface of the electric insulator, and a portion of the electric insulator, around which the metallic wire is wound, being coated with suitable material.

Abstract: Various methods for reducing redundancy and irrelevance are known for the transmission of picture information via a channel having a limited data capacity. Thus, movement vectors are determined and coded for part-picture areas. The part-picture areas themselves are also subjected to coding, for example a discrete cosine transformation (DCT). A method is specified which provides the possibility of fast picture build-up with reliable picture reconstruction. In the method according to the invention, a picture (TP1, TP2) subjected to planar low-pass filtering by one factor is transmitted with picture content reduced in the local resolution. After that, picture content which has been subject to planar low-pass filtering by a lower factor (TP1) is supplemented in the first picture. Finally, unfiltered picture content is supplemented. Picture-element-to-picture-element differences of pictures following one another in time are used as a measure for controlling this three-stage picture build-up.   Moving-picture codecs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: After a vehicle has driven into the radar beam, a first measured speed value (V<*>) is determined and subsequently verified (VERIFICATION). If, after successful verification, the first measured speed value (V<*>) overshoots a specific limiting value, the vehicle is registered. Following the verification (CHECK) a search is made for further measured speed values, which are compared, as the case may be, with the first measured speed value (V<*>). Depending upon the result of said comparison, there is a confirmation or annulment of the measurement and/or registration. Erroneous measurements caused by so-called multiple reflections can be recognised by the additional check (CHECK). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The hydrostatic drive for the fan (15) of an internal combustion engine has a fixed-displacement pump (10) which delivers pressure medium to a gear motor (14). A sealing plate (46) bears under a certain control pressure (p s) against the side face of the gears (34, 35) of the gear motor (14). The control pressure is produced by means of a control valve (17) on which an electromagnet (18) and, in the opposite direction to the electromagnet (18), a governor spring (19) act. When the control valve (17) assumes its functional position, the relatively low differential pressure from pump delivery pressure (p p) and control pressure (p st) acts to the maximum extent on this control valve (17) so that the electromagnet (18) only has to apply a small force and can therefore be of correspondingly small design. <IMAGE>
