Abstract: An eyeball assembly for use in an eyeball fitting. The eye­ball assembly includes a passage (80) for allowing water flow therethrough, and the passage (80) is adapted to accept an insert (88, 90, 92) for adjusting the discharge orifice of the eyeball (76) or governing the direction of discharge therefrom. Various inserts (88, 90, 92) are adapted for placement within the eyeball passage (80). The eyeball pas­sage (80) is configured so as to provide an area of minimum transverse dimension (104), and the inserts (88, 90, 92) are configured so as to provide an end which has a transverse dimension (114) slightly greater than the minimum eyeball passage dimension (104). The inserts (88, 90, 92) are adapted to be engaged within the eyeball passage (80) by means of a push-on force substantially parallel to the lon­gitudinal axis of the eyeball passage (80), causing the in­serts (88, 90, 92) to "snap" within the eyeball passage (80) to provide a secure engagement therebetween. The inserts (88, 90, 92) are difficult to remove by manual force, but, with the aid of a tool, can be removed from the eyeball (76) for replacement or interchangeability.

Abstract: The polariser consists of a layer which is arranged in the beam path of the light, is made from a cholesteric liquid crystal having a Grandjean structure, and in which the light in a specific waveband is selectively and circularly polarised, reflected or transmitted with a reversed sense of rotation, and of a mirror which reverses the direction of rotation of the circularly polarised light. The component reflected by the mirror is likewise transmitted. When the liquid crystal layer is concentric with respect to the source of the natural light and the mirror is spherical, the result is a light source for circularly polarised light. A projection system is produced by combining two such polarisers as polariser and analyzer and a liquid crystal display cell arranged therebetween for modulating the intensity of the polarised light. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An on-chip power supply regulation system for a VLSI circuit such as a dynamic RAM is disclosed. The system includes a high power supply voltage detection circuit (9) and a power supply clamp circuit (7), where a clamped voltage generated by the clamp circuit biases the functional circuitry when the high power supply voltage detection circuit detects an overvoltage condition. The bias voltage applied to the functional circuitry in the normal operating condition can be a regulated voltage generated from the power supply voltage. Further included in the disclosed circuit is a burn-in voltage generation circuit (5) and a burn-in voltage detection circuit (15) which can apply an accelerated voltage which depends upon the applied power supply voltage, when the power supply voltage is higher than during normal operation but lower than in the overvoltage condition enabling the clamp operation. A multiplexer (11) connects the regulated voltage, the clamped voltage, or the accelerated voltage, to the circuit depending upon the level of the external power supply voltage. In this way, the offset between the accelerated voltage and the external power supply voltage can be optimised independently from the power supply voltage at which the accelerated voltage is enabled.
