Abstract: The method serves for separating off solids from a suspension and is generally carried out as a flotation method. The suspension (S) to be clarified is fed tangentially from the outside at the periphery of an essentially cylindrical clarifying space (1). By means of hydraulic elements (2) which are applied already before this inflow into the clarifying space, interfering flow phenomena, such as turbulences, are eliminated as far as possible, so that an optimal flow pattern is present in the actual clarifying space (1). The flow is conducted towards the centre of the clarifying space in an essentially spiral path (4), the scum (6) absorbing the substances to be separated off forming on the surface. Various devices for carrying out the method are proposed. <IMAGE>

The multiplying circuit is for multiplying a value representative of a first component of a first vector with a value representative of a first component of a second vector to provide a first intermediate value, and for multiplying a value representative of a second component of a first vector with a value representative of a second component of a second vector to provide a second intermediate value. The summing circuit sums the first and second intermediate values to provide a resultant value representative of the scalar projection of the first vector onto the second vector. The apparatus may further comprise a storing circuit and a selection circuit. The storing circuit is for storing the values representative of the first and second components of the first vector, and the values representative of the first and second components of the second vector. The selection circuit provides an ordered supply of these values to the multiplying circuit.

Abstract: An intelligent power switching system for controlling the electrical connection of a power source to each of a plurality of outputs, such as personal computer components or electronic entertainment equipment. Switch circuitry is coupled to relay circuitry for generating signals responsive to user commands to select an "on" or "off" state with respect to each output. A processor receives switching signals and generates control signals to effect actuation of the relays. Responsive to user programming commands, the processor stores the switching signals, their sequence and the time delay between their generation. Responsive to a subsequent abbreviated user "power-on" command, the processor generates control signals by reading the stored switching signals, their sequence and time delay, and automatically actuates the relays with respect to each output in the same order and with the same time delay as defined by the user programming commands. A "power off" command causes the relays to be actuated in the reverse order.

Abstract: A circuit for encoding and decoding key input data from a matrix of switches with a single transmission wire. The circuit for encoding and decoding key input data with a single transmission wire includes a control circuit, a charge storage circuit and a keyboard matrix circuit. The keyboard matrix circuit is composed of a group of resistors connected in series. Each resistor is coupled to ground via a manually actuated switch. When one of the switches is actuated or closed the switch provides an electrical path to ground through the resistors that precede the switch and shorts the resistors that follow the switch. When one of the switches is closed the charge stored on the charge storage circuit dissipates through the electrical path to ground provided by the actuated switch, at a rate related to the sum of the resistance preceding the switch. The control circuit, by monitoring the time for a charge stored on the charge storage circuit to dissipate through an actuated switch coupled to ground, determines which switch was actuated.
