Patent EP-0289854-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GRAF LOTHAR
IPC: B65D47/34
Filed: 1988-04-20
Abstract: In a dispenser (1) for liquids, a section (39), which can be shortened by compression and thus serves for opening an outlet valve (15), of a piston shaft (11) which is associated with a piston unit (9), is protected against expansion in the original position and over a starting part of the pump stroke by means of a narrow rib routing and released in a part of the stroke subsequent to this starting part in such a way that it can be suddenly compressed by the pressure of the medium acting on the pump piston (10), as a result of which the outlet valve (15) then opens. However, at the start of this compression the section (39) which can be shortened carries out an idle motion after which it entrains the valve closing part (30) of the outlet valve (15) for the purpose of opening. Additionally, the outlet valve (15) can also be mechanically opened by a stop (14) at the end of the pump stroke. As a result, a particularly rapid dispensing of the medium as well as a simple evacuation of the air in the thrust piston pump (2) is made possible. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Circuitry for providing unlimited, self-adjusted drive current and suitable for power applications is described. A four terminal high efficiency, high gain driver circuit (10) including enabling circuitry is provided along with a positive feedback loop that is designed to provide unlimited drive current which automatically adjusts to the load requirement. The driver circuit includes a startup transistor (14), drive regulation transistors (12,13), predrive transistors (16,18), a driving output transistor (17), and a current splitter (11). The drive regulation transistors (12,13) and the current splitter (11) provide a positive feedback loop which supplies current to the predrive transistors (16,18) and the driving transistor (17). Under typical conditions, feedback loop operation will cause the collector to emitter voltage of the driving transistor (17) to decrease which causes the drive regulation transistors (12,13) to saturate. This condition decreases positive feedback loop drive which in turn regulates the predrive current to the level required by the load. Under short circuit output conditions, the drive regulation transistors (12,13), together with the current splitter (11) and the sensing resistor (29), regulate the output drive current to a predetermined level.

Abstract: A display device has a lattice of pixel elements each selectably settable. A method of operating the display device comprises the steps of receiving a signal representing a picture for display during a display period and illuminating the lattice to produce, during a first interval within the display period, a first light output from the lattice having a first predetermined colour characteristic and to produce at least one additional light output from the lattice. Each said additional light output has a different predetermined colour characteristic and a respective interval within the display period separate from the first interval. The method further comprises the step of time-multiplex addressing blocks of pixel elements a plurality of address times during each interval. The addressing step includes setting a group of blocks, the group consisting of a plurality of blocks spaced apart in the addressing sequence such that the blocks in the group form a series with adjacent blocks having a temporal separation in the addressing sequence exhibiting a geometric progression with a common ratio N being an integer equal to 2 or more. In this way, addressing of the lattice occurs simultaneously with its illumination by the appropriate colour, allowing a greater proportion of the frame time for the addressing operation so that additional addressing information can be utilised.

Abstract: In coded speech communication, discrete speech samples are analyzed to generate a first signal indicating the fine pitch structure of the speech samples and a second signal indicating their spectral characteristic. The amplitudes and locations of main excitation pulses are determined from the fine pitch structure and spectral characteristic and a third signal indicating the determined pulse amplitudes and locations is generated. The difference between the speech samples and the main excitation pulses is detected and used in auxiliary excitation pulse calculation to determine gain and index values of auxiliary excitation pulses by retrieving stored auxiliary excitation pulses from a code book so that the retrieved auxiliary excitation pulses approximate the difference. The first, second and third coded signals and the gain and index values are transmitted through a communication channel to a distant end where a replica of the main excitation pulses is recovered from the received first and third signals and a replica of the auxiliary excitation pulses is recovered from a code book in response to the received fourth signal. These replicas are modified with the second signal to recover a replica of the original speech samples.

Abstract: The peak amplitude values of two different frequency pressure changes produced by the displacement device of a volume sensing arrangement, are obtained and one divided by the other to produce a value indicative of the volume of the unfilled portion of a storage vessel. The contents of the vessel are derived by subtracting the unfilled volume from the vessel capacity. 
     In the embodiments a single pressure sensor is used, the signal is simultaneously filtered with a low pass filter and a band pass filter in order to obtain static and dynamic pressure data. In some embodiments the single sensor is disposed in a chamber in which the displacement means produces two different frequency pressure variations. The chamber is communicated with the storage vessel by a pipe the length and diameter of which are selected to prevent the pressure variations produced by one of the frequencies from being transmitted therethrough. 
     In other embodiments two pressure sensors are used and the special pipe dispensed with and the outputs of the two sensors fed to band pass filters.

Abstract: A non-main storage data space (NMDS) is presented, whose virtual pages may be backed by expanded storage, by a combination of expanded and auxiliary storage, but not by main storage. Mechanisms are provided to prevent direct referencing of data in a NMDS by instructions, and to bring data into and out of NMDS's. 
     The I/O mechanisms minimize physical I/O by exchanging pointers to backing pages in appropriate cases. Additionally, control is returned immediately to I/O-initiating applications, when I/O is required between an address space and a NMDS, without the need for synchronization by the application: the mechanism provides for synchronization by the system's page fault processing.

Abstract: This invention relates to a photosensitive material for electrophotography which comprises an electrically conductive support of a desired shape and an organic photoconductive layer formed on the substrate. The organic photoconductive layer is formed from a solution of an organic charge-generating compound, an organic charge transfer compound and an organic resin in an organic solvent after low temperature treatment thereof wherein the solution is cooled to a temperature sufficient not to cause the solutes to be precipitated or the solution to be coagulated for a time enough to allow interaction between the compounds and the resin binder and is returned to room temperature. This solution is applied to the support and dried to form a photoconductive layer on the support. The photoconductive layer may be of a single-layer structure or a double-layered structure wherein at least one sub-layer should be formed from a solution subjected to the low temperature treatment. A process for making the photosensitive material is also described.
