Abstract: An arrangement for limiting the terminal voltage in an alternator has a fixed stator winding acting on rectifiers and an excitation winding which rotates with the alternator rotor. The arrangement also has a controller and a first slip ring contact which load the excitation winding with excitation current as a function of the magnitude of a delivered voltage, and at least one free-wheeling valve which is conductive during a controller-side interruption of the excitation current and is connected in parallel with the excitation winding. The arrangement includes an auxiliary winding on the rotor. The auxiliary winding continues the excitation winding in the same direction of winding, with the auxiliary winding and the excitation winding being connected at a first connection point. A second slip ring contact operatively connects the first connection point to a machine terminal supplying excitation current. A zener diode is connected in series with auxiliary winding, and a third slip ring contact operatively connects the auxiliary winding to a ground terminal of the alternator or of the controller.

Abstract: A fabric light control window covering in which fabric vanes 10a are adhesively bonded between two sheer fabric sheets 72,96 such that relative movement between the sheer fabric sheets in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fabric vanes changes the angle of the fabric vanes and, thus, controls the amount of light admitted through the shade. The vanes are bonded to the sheer fabric sheets in a manner which tends to bias the sheer fabric sheets together to the non-light admitting position. Also, disclosed are methods and apparatus for manufacturing the above window covering. The method features linear application of adhesive to the vane material which provides for a uniform appearance in the finished product. A heat setting process and apparatus is disclosed in which the bonded layers of sheer fabrics and vanes are fed between belts over hot and cool surfaces, under uniform tension and pressure. This provides for heat setting of the layers of the window covering to a uniform temperature-size relationship without inducing wrinkles or distortion into the fabric during heat setting. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A coupling for rotating parts which permits an offset of the axes of rotation contains an input-side coupling half (10A), an output-side coupling half (10B) and three rings (12, 14, 16), supported concentrically upon one another via rolling bearings, as intermediate members of the coupling. Each of the rings (12, 14, 16) is connected via a first link to the input-side coupling half (10A) and via a second link, offset by 180 DEG  relative to the first link, to the output-side coupling half (10B). To guide the rings laterally on one another, the rings (12, 14, 16) have grooves (52, 60; 74, 76) in the circumferential surfaces facing the respectively adjacent ring. Rolling elements (70, 72) are held in the grooves (52, 60; 74, 76). The rolling elements (70, 72) are guided in the grooves (52, 60; 74, 76) in the axial direction, axial guidance of the rings (12, 14, 16) on one another thereby being guaranteed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for using the printer unit of a telefax device as a page printer for a PC. It is the object to make this printer unit usable for different PCs and to achieve high printing quality and printing speed. This is achieved by providing a control unit which detects a print requirement and switches the telefax device from facsimile operation to printing operation and vice versa, the information data being transmitted as hexadecimal characters. The data representing the information are supplied as hexadecimal values from the PC to the buffer memories PSp1 and PSp2 and to the page memory SSp. Control signals for actual character shapes, which correspond to the hexadecimal values and take over control of the printing printer section (thermal comb), are stored in the register R of the printer unit. As a result, the character is printed out not in pixel form but in high quality as an actual character in original form. The user can set a character interval after which the control unit STE automatically switches from printing mode to facsimile mode. When copies are made, this switching is automatically extended to begin with the end of the last copy. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A digital demodulator for a NICAM 728 system signal has sampling and digitizing means converting the signal into a succession of digital samples. The digital samples pass through an anti-aliasing digital comb filter to a selector (decimator) that selects one sample in three and feeds it to a second digital filter. Digital matched filters for the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components of the signal effect the demodulation. Carrier and symbols I tracking is carried out digitally. A pulse-width modulated automatic gain control signal is produced for controlling the amplitude of the signal applied to the sampling and digitizing means. <IMAGE>
