Title: Method and apparatus for stretching dough
Inventor: HAYASHI TORAHIKO
IPC: A21D8/02
Filed: 1991-05-10
Granted: 1992-09-17
Abstract: A dough-stretching roller apparatus is provided to produce a continuous web of dough in a process to manufacture confectionery and bread. The apparatus includes a pair of upper rollers (3) and a pair of lower rollers (4), a sensor means (5) that measures the thickness of the dough when it enters the lower rollers, and a controller (11) that controls a motor (8) driving the upper rollers in response to a signal from the sensor means. The controller increases the rotational speed of the upper rollers when the sensors detect that the thickness of dough is less than a preset thickness and decreases such rotational speed when the thickness of the dough is greater than the preset thickness. Thus, even if the quantity of dough supplied from a hopper is unstable, the stable production of a stretched web of dough having a constant volume per unit length can be assured. <IMAGE>

Title: Attenuation measuring system for telephone line section - monitors incoming signal whose frequency varies with test signal level
IPC: H04B3/48
Filed: 1971-12-30
Abstract: The attenuation measuring system, for telephone line sections, has a manned test station and remotely-controlled automatic distant station. A test signal is transmitted to the distant station. The distant station sends a signal back to the manned station whose frequency corresponds to the amplitude of the received test signal. The manned station (A) has a generator (G) generating a signal whose frequency is equal to the wanted frequency of the signal received from the distant station. A beat frequency is produced by mixing (V) the received signal and the generator's output. To reduce the number of generators the reference generator and the transmit generator may be the same.
