Inventor: WHITFIELD ARTHUR ALLAN
IPC: C09D5/23
Filed: 1992-12-09
Abstract: The reliability of data transfer between stages of photographic filmstrip (100) use and processing is enhanced by magnetically recording a limited data set (A) repetitively along a wide track (140) in a frame (130) of the filmstrip. Plural laterally offset magnetic read heads (171, 172, 173) monitor the data in the magnetic track and provide output data signals on parallel independently operating channels (181, 182, 183). The data content of the output data signals is examined to determine whether the-data of an individual data signal contains corruption error. The combined linear and parallel redundancy of the system tends to ensure successful data transfer despite a less than perfect head-to-film interface and other data corrupting influences.

Abstract: A video format signal is divided into a plurality of split video signals (1) and each signal multiplexed with information data including an identification signal and error correction coding information (2, 3, 4, 5). The multiplexed signals are modulated (6) and recorded onto adjacent tracks of a recording medium (7). The identification signal is inserted in a different horizontal line in each of the split video signals. A reproducing apparatus corrects (11) the reproduced split video signals. When the drop-out in one signal is too great, the apparatus selects the other signals for providing the identification signal. 
     By using different horizontal lines, it is likely that the identification signal in only one split video signal will be affected.

Abstract: A nacelle cooling and ventilation system for an aircraft gas turbine engine which includes a chin scoop (20) and duct assembly for directing air through the engine bay (24) where it is exhausted into the engine exhaust through an exhaust shroud eductor (30). The nacelle is enclosed so that effectively all of the cooling air entering the bay leaves the bay through the engine exhaust and is not dumped overboard, thereby adding to the effective thrust of the engine. An engine oil and generator oil heat exchanger (26) is positioned in the cooling air duct into the bay so that the same air which cools the bay also cools engine and generator oil (28). The oil heat exchanger includes directional louvers which regulate and keep to a minimum the amount of cooling air and direct cooling air forwardly in the bay so that the entire bay area is cooled, and which can be shut as a fire control measure. The nacelle includes bay vent doors which are opened in response to a high oil temperature condition or in an engine shut-off condition on ground to provide auxiliary air flow from the bay. The doors are positionable by an actuator but can be disconnected from the actuator to pivot freely in response to a sudden increase in nacelle bay pressure.

Abstract: A selection device includes a trackball (10) rotatably mounted on rollers (12, 14). The rollers are connected with rotational encoders (16, 18) for producing a series of pulses. Up/down counters (20, 22) convert the pulses into an indication of translation along two axes. Downward, non-rotational pressure on the trackball causes a transducer (50) to output an electrical signal which is recognizable as a selection signal. In some embodiments, the transducer is a strain gauge or other transducer which provides an output whose magnitude varies with the amount of force. A comparator (54) compares the output of the transducer with a selectable threshold to indicate whether a selection signal is to be issued. In other embodiments, the transducer has two states, e.g. is a mechanical switch (70), and changes state in response to the force on the trackball exceeding a preselected minimum.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of a two-part component, namely a gearwheel (11) with a clutch element (12) on a seat (15) of the gearwheel (11). This component is intended, in particular, for synchronised gearboxes of motor vehicles. In the process, the gearwheel (11) and the clutch element (12) are produced separately and then connected rigidly to one another. The object on which the invention is based is to provide a simple process in which expensive machining steps are avoided. In particular, the intention is to provide the possibility of combining a machined gearwheel (11) with a sintered, preferably sinter-forged clutch element (12). This object is achieved, according to the invention, by virtue of the fact that one of the two parts is heated and then connected to the other part by shrink-fitting. If at least one part is produced by sintering, it can be shrunk onto the other part from the sintering temperature. The same applies, mutatis mutandis, to the production of a part by sinter-forging. <IMAGE>
