Abstract: Walking-beam furnace for the accelerated heating of billets or the like, in which the upper surfaces of the mobile beams (1) and of the fixed beams (1') are made up of billet-tipping ridges (5, 4) having profiles which interact during operation so as to cause rotation of the billets about their longitudinal axes as they advance through the furnace. According to the invention, the billet-tipping ridges (4, 5) of the fixed beams (1') and of the mobile beams (1) consist of a plurality of modular elements (7, 8, 9, 10) in the form of billet-tipping ridge segments which are mutually aligned along the length of the beams (1, 1'). The ridge segments (7, 8, 9, 10) have additional features which improve operation of the billet-tipping ridges (4, 5).

Abstract: A densitometer using microwaves comprises a microwave detection section (26, 27, 28, 29), a phase detection section (30), and a density calculation section (31). The microwave detection section (26, 27, 28, 29) picks up a first microwave receiving signal by transmitting and receiving a microwave of a frequency band of 1.4 [GHz] to 1.75 [GHz] to/from a reference fluid, and a second microwave receiving signal by transmitting and receiving a microwave of a frequency band of 1.4 [GHz] to 1.75 [GHz] to/from a measuring fluid. The phase detection section (30) obtains a phase difference between the first microwave receiving signal and the second microwave receiving signal. The density calculation section (31) calculates the density of the measuring fluid based on the phase difference obtained by the phase detection section (30).

Abstract: The invention relates to a holder, in particular made of plastic, for cables or tubes, having a substantially dimensionally stable base body which is open on one side. The base body can be closed via a movable limb carrying a catch mechanism. For the closure of the holder, the catch mechanism engages in an engaging window of complementary shape. The catch mechanism consists of a moulding curved in the shape of a hook, one hook limb of which is articulated on the movable limb of the base body and the other limb of which widens in the shape of a wedge to form a catch lug on which an opening lever is integrally moulded via a film hinge. Arranged above the engaging window is an abutment which cooperates with the opening lever and forms a bilateral lever, so that upon opening the catch mechanism the catch lug is levered out of the engaging window. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Laser color printers include multiple laser sources formed of either diode lasers or laser diode arrays emitting light beams of different wavelengths, and an optical arrangement. The optical arrangement independently processes each of the light beams to provide a separate predetermined sized collimated light beam, and then focuses and scans the light beams over a printing media that prints separate colors for each different wavelength of light. Where different sized collimated light beams are required to match a printing media, a separate zoom lens is used is used in the optical arrangement to independently reshape each of two orthogonal cross-sectional directions of a separate one of the light beams before being properly sized at the output thereof. Where only one of the two orthogonal cross-sectional directions of the light beams has to be reshaped, the light beams are collimated and combined and pass through a beam shaper which reshapes that cross-sectional direction of the light beams before the light beams are focused and scanned over the printing media. Where laser diode arrays are used to generate separate wavelength light beams, each of the light beams from the lasers of an array are formed and focused into a linear array of spots on the printing media.

Abstract: A vehicle steering system (10, 190, 290) includes inner and outer coaxial valve members (40, 42) which are rotatable relative to each other to port fluid to a vehicle power steering motor (30). A plurality of rocker arms (122, 302) are pivotally connected to the inner valve member (40). Each rocker arm (122, 302) is pivotal relative to the inner valve member (40). Each rocker arm (122, 302) engages a recess (132) in the outer valve member (42). Upon relative rotation between the inner and outer valve members (40, 42), the rocker arms (122, 302) pivot relative to the inner valve member (40). Force is applied to each of the rocker arms (122, 302) to resist pivoting of the rocker arms (122, 302) and relative rotation between the inner and outer valve members (40, 42). In one embodiment, a plurality of pistons (222) are disposed in chambers (220) formed in the outer valve member (42). The pistons (222) are exposed to a fluid pressure which varies as a function of vehicle speed. The pistons (222) are effective to vary the force applied against the rocker arms (122) and the resistance to relative rotation between the valve members (40, 42) as a function of vehicle speed.

Abstract: A high-strength Pb-free solder alloy, based on the Sn-Ag-Zn system, is disclosed. The addition of Zn significantly improves the mechanical strength and creep resistance of e.g., Sn-3.5% Ag eutectic solder while maintaining substantially the same level of ductility. The increase in strength is as much as 48% over that of the Sn-3.5% Ag alloy. This strengthening from the Zn additions is attributed to a uniform solidification structure and a substantial refinement of the precipitates in the alloy. Essentially all of the added Zn resides in the more corrosion-resistant, Ag-based, intermetallic precipitates, leaving the Sn-rich matrix primarily free of Zn in solid solution.

Abstract: A cell switch fabric chip is provided for use in different arrangements of fabric interfacing a cell body memory to N input ports and N output ports. Each port has a plurality of lines over which constituent bits of a cell body can be transferred by a succession of bit shifts. The chip comprises M externally-accessible, separate memory buses each with an associated plurality S of shift register blocks. Each shift register block has an input shift register of L elements into which bits can be shifted from an input port line, the input shift register being connected to said input contact to enable bits to be shifted into the register, and an output shift register of L elements out of which bits can be shifted through an output port line. The input shift register can transfer its contents in a parallel transfer onto the associaed bus and, similarly, the output shift register can be loaded by a parallel transfer from the bus. The chip can handle BM sets of port lines where B is the integer part of the result of the division S/N and where each set comprises all corresponding lines taken one from each of the N input and N output ports. Thus, for example, if M = 2 and S = 8, the chip can be used for switch fabric arrangements with 1, 2, 4 or 8 ports to handle 16, 8, 4, or 2 sets of port lines.

Abstract: In floor coverings of composite tiles, especially of recycled synthetic material, with a polygonal ground plan, the possibility of obtaining the desired elastic properties while economising on material is provided. In the recess (4) forming a hollow space in each component (2) there is a cylindrical support (9) moulded on the underside of the tile covering (5), the lower edge (10) of which is preferably in a plane with the lower edges (7) of the composite tile. To stabilise the walls of each component (2), the supporting component (9) is connected to the vertical edges (12) of the components (2) via diagonal ribs (11), preferably extending to the lower edge of the tile covering. Together with laying plates (20) which comprise securing means (22) designed to co-operate with the supports (9) of the composite tiles, the latter form a laying system which permits the laying of the composite tiles even on difficult substrates and by means of which laid composite tiles can easily be lifted.
