Abstract: Patterned films of superconducting materials are formed using focused beam techniques, such as electron beam, ion beam, and laser beam techniques. A solution comprising the neodecanoates of yttrium, barium, and copper is formed which is soluble in an organic solvent. The solution is spun onto an appropriate substrate. The solution is dried and subsequently selectively exposed using focused beam techniques, so that the exposed regions are no longer soluble in the organic solvent. The dried solution is immersed in the organic solvent, so that the only the exposed, insoluble regions remain on the substrate. The dried solution is then heated at a temperature sufficient to decompose the neodecanoates, about 450°C, and then heated again to promote recrystallizaton and grain growth of the remaining metal oxides. The resulting patterned film exhibits superconductive characteristics.

     Also described is a process for manufacturing detergent compositions comprising synthetic anionic organic detergent, zeolite, tripolyphosphate and the mentioned imidazoline, in which an aqueous crutcher mix is made, to which the zeolite is added before the tripolyphosphate, and the imidazoline is added immediately after the tripolyphosphate, thereby avoiding undesirable reaction of the imidazoline with the zeolite, which reaction has a negative effect on antistatic and fabric softening properties of the resulting product. The product is obtained in particulate solid form by spray drying of the crutcher mix in conventional manner.

Abstract: On a stationary basic body (10), the vice has a movable gripping jaw (11) and a stationary gripping jaw (12). Furthermore, there are draw-down jaws which enable the workpiece to be secured in the correct position during clamping by means of the drive device (16). Due to the fact that the draw-down jaw (18) can be moved up to a stop on the basic body (10), the draw-down forces, which essentially counteract the clamping force, being derived from a force-transmitting element (13) known per se which absorbs the deformations of the vice, greater positional constancy and thus greater precision is achieved. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electric generating system having a discharge circuit for a DC filter capacitor includes an electric power source 10, 18 for producing a DC voltage on a pair of conductors 20, 22 and a DC filter capacitor 24 electrically connected between the conductors. A voltage indicating signal, representative of the actual output voltage of the generator, is combined with a reference signal to obtain a control signal which varies in proportion to the difference between the desired output voltage of the power source and the actual output voltage. Power source output voltage is controlled in response to the control signal. A branch circuit 46 with a solid state switching device is connected across the DC filter capacitor. The solid state switching device is turned on for a limited time in response to a change in the magnitude of the control signal resulting from an increase in the actual output voltage of the power source, thereby discharging the DC filter capacitor.

Abstract: The device can be used particularly for recognising the presence of an audio-frequency programme signal in an input signal. In the device, the input signal is sampled and the samples are subjected to amplitude analysis during successive time intervals of predetermined duration which is long enough for the distribution gathered to be representative of the distribution of amplitudes obtained for several successive intervals in the input signal. The amplitude distributions are compared in order to identify the presence of the programme on the basis of stochastic properties of the programme signal. This process can be implemented in a device incorporating a sampling means, a multi-channel analyser (30) and a computer means (36). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An optical grating is oscillated at a high rate to scan a narrow wavelength band of light through the spectrum dispersed by the grating. The grating is connected integrally with the rotor of a motor, which is energized to oscillate its rotor between selected limits. The direction of rotation of the motor is controlled by an H drive circuit connected to a coil of the motor. The speed of the motor is controlled by a pulse train applied to the motor coil through the H drive. The pulse train has a duty cycle varying inversely with the motor speed. The duty cycle of the pulse train is controlled by a counter which is connected to count high frequency pulses and which is reset each time the grating rotates through an angular increment. The limits of the oscillation of the grating and the rate of rotation of the grating between the limits are selectively variable. Output readings from the spectrophotometer are taken at equal angular increments of the grating and these readings are converted to values occurring at equal wavelength increments by a computer.

Abstract: A ring dispenser comprising a rotating rod having an acme thread along one portion thereof and a helical coil spring at a dispensing end thereof feeds individual rings to a ring transfer device located at the dispensing end of the rod. The rod is rotated by a motor and the rings are automatically separated and directed to the end of the rod where a sensor detects the presence of the ring and stops the motor. When the ring transfer device is ready to pick up a ring, the motor starts again and a ring slides off a conical tip of the rod onto the transfer device by rotation of the rod. The rings have diameters greater than the separation between the individual threads of the rod so that the rings move on the crests of the threads and are out of engagement with the thread roots. The spacings between the convolutions of the coil spring are greater than the thickness of the rings so that the rings move on the rod surface as the rings approach the dispensing end of the rod.
