Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP88/00652 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 9, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 9, 1989 PCT Filed Jul. 20, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/00804 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 26, 1989.A power supply circuit for an electric discharge lamp driven by an A.C. power supply has a regulating transformer connected in parallel with a current limiting reactor and an electric discharge lamp interconnected in series. The tap of the regulating transformer is connected by a condenser and an auxiliary reactance interconnected in series to the connection between the current limiting reactor and the electric discharge lamp. By adjusting the tap of the regulating transformer the performance of the lamp can be influenced within a wide range. In place of the regulating transformer an electronic phase shifter may also be used, which is particularly advantageous when regulating speeds are required that cannot be achieved by means of an electromechanically adjustable regulating transformer.

Abstract: When V is added to an Nd-Fe-B sintered magnet so as to modify the minority phase such that B is in excess of a stoichiometric composition of R2Fe14B compound-phase, this essentially does not form RFe4B4-compound minority phase but forms a finely dispersed V-T-B compound minority phase (T is Fe, and in a case containing Co, T is Fe and Co), the coercive force (iHc) is enhanced to 15 kOe or more. By an addition of from 0.01 to 1 at % of Cu the material's heat treatment characteristics are improved.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for installing optical fibres (11) in tubes or ducts (29). An optical fibre is fed from a reel (13) into a small diameter feed portion of duct (25), and compressed air is introduced into the duct. This advances the fibre, using viscous drag forces, into a main duct of larger diameter. There is a pressure drop at the intersection of the two ducts. Subsequently, the advancement of the fibre is continued by maintaining the air supply, and the viscous drag forces, acting on the increasing length of the fibre in the duct, advance it along the duct. Two or more fibres, which may be unsheathed primary coated fibres, may be installed simultaneously.

Abstract: It is desired to improve a coordinate drilling machine with regard to the centering in an economically simple manner in such a way that workpieces can be clamped in a grid in a defined manner at any grid point. This is achieved by a computer allocated to the machine being designed and programmed in such a way that a grid clamping plate (3) and a spindle head (13), with regard to a tracer provided on the spindle head (13), can be moved by means of electronic handwheels (5, 6) up to the stop on a clamping means, and the computer can be taught this position as a relative zero point of the clamping means, and by the computer knowing the corresponding relative zero point after the input of the type of clamping means and the allocated reference hole of the grid clamping plate (3), and by it moving the grid clamping plate (3) relative to the spindle head (13) after the input of the coordinates of the desired centering bore with regard to the relative zero point.

Abstract: The combustion device consists of a cylindrical container (1), in which bundles of heat-exchange pipes (7) are arranged in an annular chamber (18). While the media flow to be treated is supplied through the heat-exchange pipes (7) to a burner (13), the discharge of the heated treated media flow takes place over the heat-exchange pipes (7) and flows around these. As a result, the heat-exchange pipes (7) are exposed to changes in length which are compensated by the heat-echange pipes (7) being provided in the inflow-side end region with Z-shaped or S-shaped double bends (8-8). Connecting pieces (9) between the double bends (8-8) are inclined tangentially to a circle, the central point of which lies in the central axis of the container (1). As a result, the connecting pieces (9) can be dimensioned comparatively long, as a result of which particularly large changes in length of the heat-exchange pipes (7) can be compensated in a very elastic manner.

Abstract: A matrix array image sensor integrated circuit chip is provided including horizontal and vertical scanning means with the sensor cells within columns of the array being associated with an analogue charge sense amplifier. The analogue charge sense amplifier includes a first amplifier in the form of an inverting charge integrator which provides a preliminary detection of the charge accumulated in the sensing cell by integrating the charge to produce a voltage which is capacitively stored in a voltage storage means. The sensing cell may then be reset by control logic while it is isolated from the stored voltage which is in turn selectively sampled using a switch to read out through a second amplifier stage to be provided as an output from the integrated circuit chip. A method for operation of the device in processing an image read cycle is also provided.
