Abstract: The panic lock comprises at least one bolt and an actuating bar connected pivotably to said door by means of an assembly formed by at least two cases fastened to said door and two levers (2) fixed towards one of their ends to the actuating bar and mounted pivotably at their other end in an associated case (4); said lock comprises a first spring member (10) which, in a first dihedron corresponding to a first door opening direction, returns the actuating bar and levers (2) towards a position of rest, one of the levers being a control lever interacting with elements for actuating the bolts. The first spring member (10) is arranged to allow the associated lever (2) to pivot in order to be placed in a second dihedron corresponding to a second door opening direction; a second spring member (10) is provided for returning, in this second dihedron, an associated lever (2) and the actuating bar towards a position of rest, whilst the control lever of the bolt and the elements (26) of its case are arranged so as to continue to ensure the actuation of the bolt when this control lever has been placed in the second dihedron, the lock thus being reversible.

A first section of each shell defines a conical frustum, and the larger-diameter end of each frustum is bevelled. The second section of each shell is cylindrical and is seamlessly connected to the bevelled end of the respective first section so that the first and second sections of each shell are inclined relative to one another. The second sections have respective plane end faces which confront one another and are located in planes intersecting both the transverse and longitudinal axes of the valve. A circumferentially complete weld seam bonds the end faces to each other.

Abstract: Adjustment and maintenance of a phase relationship between a video signal (on 11) and a scan synchronizing signal (on 67) to assure proper horizontal centering is provided in a horizontal deflection system (40). A first phase locked loop generates a first timing signal (on 17) at a first frequency, synchronously with a horizontal synchronizing component in a video signal. A presettable counting circuit (in 56) operates synchronously with the first timing signal for dividing a clock signal to generate a second timing signal (on 61) at a second frequency. A second phase locked loop (62) generates a scan synchronizing signal (on 67) from the second timing signal. A microprocessor (74) may supply different numbers to a register (in 56), the output of the register being coupled to the presettable counting circuit. Different numbers (from 74) change the relative phase between the first and second timing signals by incremental steps. The microprocessor (74) monitors a video source selection switch to gate one of alternative video sources as a video and synchronizing signal output and adjusts the relative phase between the horizontal synchronizing component of the selected video source and a synchronous timing signal by a factor appropriate for the selected video source. A manually operable circuit (72) may be coupled in a feedback path of the second phase locked loop (62) for adjusting the relative phase between the second timing signal (on 61) and the scan synchronizing signal (on 67), over a range corresponding to an incremental step. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Light from the laser (2) is directed at a phase grating (3) on the rim of a plate (4). Two partial beams (+1,-1) of the first order are diffracted on to corrective gratings (7,8) and deflected so as to fall normally and with plane wavefronts on to the disc (6). Coupling gratings (9,10) lead into intersecting portions (11,12) of a waveguide layer with exit gratings (13,14) diametrically opposite. Further corrective gratings (15,16) return the partial beams to the original grating (3) for interference and evaluation by detectors (not depicted).

Abstract: Procedure for regulating the d.c. voltage of a pulse- width modulated rectifier bridge controlled by self-commutated semiconductor components (T1-T6) and provided with filtering coils (L), in which procedure the phase voltages (Er,Es,Et) of the supplying three-phase mains (L1,L2,L3) and the d.c. voltage (Udc) of the rectifier are measured. The modulation references (Umr,Ums,Umt) needed for the pulse-width modulation are produced using pure sine and cosine curves synchronized with the mains voltages, with localized vectors formed from them or with components of such vectors by means of a phase-locked loop (PLL2). The regulation is effected in a coordinate system tied to the localized vector (E) of the mains voltages. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In this hair curler a curved tensioning clip (2) made of absorbent textile material is provided, which initially absorbs a surplus of perming liquid from the curled hair, which is subsequently quickly extracted from it by drying or evaporation. The drying operation is accelerated by hollow spaces (13) and openings (14) in and on the roller bar (1), since the drying air is able to flow unhindered through the curler. A clip (11) in basket form enclosing the curled hair assists the perming shaping without affecting the drying speed.

Abstract: A Natural Language Processing System utilizes a symbol parsing layer (5) and an intelligent word parsing layer (5) to produce a syntactically or pragmatically correct output. A plurality of polysemic symbol sequences are input through a keyboard with semantic, syntactic, or pragmatic segments including agent, action and patient segments, for example. One polysemic sequence is input from each of the three segments of the keyboard (1). A symbol parsing device, then parses each symbols in each polysemic symbol sequence to access a previously stored word, morpheme, or phrase. The accessed word, morpheme, or phrase (50) corresponds to the input polysemic symbol sequence and further corresponds to one of the designated agent, action or patient segments. Each accessed word, morpheme, or phrase further accesses corresponding and previously stored grammatical and semantic information. An intelligent word parsing layer (5) subsequently applies each of the plurality of words, morphemes, or phrases to a predetermined hierarchy of rules based upon the accessed grammatical and semantic information. The intelligent word parsing device subsequently parses the received plurality of accessed words, morphemes, or phrases into a syntactically or pragmatically correct output.

Abstract: To control the flow of air into and/or out of a process chamber, such as a clean room, a two-stage system is disposed in conduits leading into and/or out of the process-chamber. One stage includes a regulator, having a plenum (7, 79) disposed between the environment and the air source or the vacuum source. The regulator maintains in the plenum a pressure that is between the pressures of the environment and the source and that is a constant amount different from the environment's pressure. The regulator includes a piston (5) having a frontal face (52) exposed to air in the plenum flowing between the environment and the source, and a distal face (51) exposed to the environment's pressure. The piston is mounted so as to variably impede the flow of air through the regulator and so that the weight of the piston tends to move the piston in a direction so as to lessen the piston's impedance on the air flow. The other stage includes an adjustable valve (21,25,95), located between the regulator and the environment, for further impeding the flow of air. <IMAGE>
