Abstract: Incandescent lamps or arc lamps having an infrared red reflecting multilayer optical interference filter on the outer surface of the vitreous or fused quartz lamp envelope enclosing the filament have a light-scattering coating applied over the filter to scatter light emitted by the lamp and thereby diffuse the filament image. The light-scattering coating consists of light-scattering particles, such as alumina, dispersed in a silica matrix. This coating is formed by applying to the filter a silicone solution in which is dispersed colloidal silica and light-scattering particles and pyrolyzing at high temperature to drive off the organic components and form the silica matrix.

Abstract: A series of N data items are sequentially received and stored in respective N storage locations of a first memory according to the order of arrival. The ranks of the N data items are determined according to their relative values to each other. Corresponding to the stored data items, the address number of the first memory storage locations of the corresponding data items are stored in respective storage locations of a second memory according to their ranks. The storage locations of the second memory are arranged in sequential order of ranks so that the first memory address numbers are sequentially arranged in the second memory in the order of the ranks of the corresponding data items. A sequence of additional data items is received and their ranks are determined relative to the values of data items stored in the first memory. If the rank of each additional data item is determined to be higher than the lowest rank of the stored data items, the additional data item is used to overwrite the lowest rank data item. The first memory address number of the additional data item is stored in the second memory according to the rank of the additional item by moving existing address numbers and discarding the address number of the overwritten data item. The address numbers stored in the second memory are sequentially read and the contents of the first memory are read.

Abstract: A frame (9) is coupled to a Remotely Operable Service Arm (ROSA) robotic arm, and a rotatable carousel (1), in turn, is carried by the frame to position several tool modules (2,3,4,5) used in a welding operation adjacent to a damaged tube (12a) in a tubesheet (16) of a nuclear steam generator (7). The arm positions an alignment module (2) directly beneath the damaged tube and the module aligns the carousel. The carousel is rotated to sequentially align and register a laser welding module (3), a cleaning module (4), and an inspection module (5) with the damaged tube for a welding operation on a lower portion of the damaged tube in the tubesheet area. One embodiment for the alignment module has a pneumatically operated pin (2) which is operator controlled, and which has an increasing diameter from its distal end to obtain a gross to a vernier alignment of the carousel and, thus, a proper alignment for the remaining modules. A further embodiment provides an alignment pin which is automatically computer controlled without operator intervention. Limit switches and grooves are used as a logic checking device for the proper positioning of a respective module in the frame, and a pneumatically operated radial pin holds the module in the frame.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for generating a powder stream to be applied to a work piece (22) includes a powder reservoir (12), a mixing chamber (14), a powder metering valve (36,38), a transfer conduit (16), and a nozzle (18). The metering valve allows control of the powder flow from the reservoir into the mixing chamber where it is dispersed with and entrained in an air flow entering the chamber through an aspirating inlet (30). The air entrained powder is then conveyed from the mixing chamber via the transfer conduit to the nozzle. The nozzle includes a controllable gas flow input (43) and a powder stream generating passageway (42) configured and associated with the transfer conduit to generate a reduced pressure in the conduit and mixing chamber which draws the air borne powder from the chamber into the nozzle. One or more of the individual components are adjustable to control the size, configuration, thickness or other parameters of the coating on the work piece as a result of the applied powder stream.

Date May 11, 1994A system produces high-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) images from the data measured by the magnetic resonance machine. The system extrapolates, using a method "ad hoc", a function of the measured data. This makes it possible to reduce the number of data measured, giving consequent reduction in the overall measurement time. Further, a special contrast measurement is used, which makes it possible to choose the image automatically from a group of possible candidates, consistent with the measured data.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un émetteur-récepteur (25) pour transmettre et recevoir des données numériques sous la forme d'ondes sinusoïdales en marches d'escalier sur des paires de lignes torsadées, interconnectant les n÷uds d'un réseau. L'émetteur (302) de l'émetteur-récepteur convertit des ondes carrées en ondes sinusoïdales en marches d'escalier en utilisant plusieurs sources de courant pour fournir différentes quantités de courant à une résistance pontant les paires de lignes torsadées. Des registres de décalage contrôlent un jeu de commutateurs qui déterminent la direction et la quantité de courant circulant dans la résistance. On peut ainsi contrôler la tension de sortie aux bornes de la résistance pour appliquer un signal aux registres à décalage. Le récepteur (303) de l'émetteur-récepteur convertit à nouveau en signaux numériques correspondants les ondes sinusoïdales en marches d'escalier reçues.

Title: Device for cleaning paint brushes or the like

Filed: 1994-07-22
Abstract: A device for cleaning paint brushes or the like comprises a container (1) for a cleaning fluid and a plurality of wiping elements (2) projecting upwardly substantially from the bottom of the container. Each wiping element of at least a part of the wiping elements has one or more scraping edges along at least a part of its length, said scraping edges being adapted to cooperate with the paint brush to be cleaned. This is for example obtained in that each wiping element has a polygonal, preferably rectangular cross section at its end adjacent the bottom and tapers from the bottom. Thereby these wiping elements have sharp edges operating as scraping edges when the paint brush to be cleaned is moved along the wiping elements, so that an excellent cleaning action is obtained. The device can be part of an assembly which further comprises a refuse container and a cover for closing the refuse container. This refuse container with corresponding cover can be used for removing the used cleaning fluid with paint rests and can be offered closed as chemical waste to the cleansing service.

Abstract: Electrode de stimulation destinée à connecter un stimulateur cardiaque et le coeur d'un patient, qui présente une souplesse classique sur des longueurs distales et proximales et une rigidité accrue sur une longueur intermédiaire ou moyenne. La rigidité accrue de la longueur intermédiaire entraîne des caractéristiques de torsion améliorées, permettant ainsi de manipuler avec plus de facilité et de précision l'extrémité distale de l'électrode. Cette rigidité accrue de la longueur intermédiaire peut être obtenue à l'aide d'un tubage thermorétrécissable placé sur la partie intermédiaire du fil d'électrode, d'un revêtement qui est pulvérisé sur le fil pour diminuer sa souplesse ou d'un tubage qui est ajusté de manière serrée à l'intérieur du diamètre interne de la gaine externe de l'électrode afin de forcer la variation du fil et d'obtenir une rigidité améliorée. Dans chaque mode de réalisation, la friction entre le fil et la gaine externe est réduite sur la longueur moyenne intermédiaire, ce qui réduit la torsion transmise à la gaine, permettant ainsi une rotation plus efficace du mécanisme d'ancrage à l'extrémité distale de l'électrode.

Abstract: A travelling crane has a grab (5) for picking up goods, equipped with laser distance sensors (21) to measure the position of the load's outer edges relative to the ground, or target position. This is done with the help of mirrors (26). With regard to the transport direction, there is one sensor both fore and aft. As the load swings during transport, its bottom edge cuts or leaves the field of vision of each sensor. The sensors are connected to equipment (43) which is used to "lock the load". The mirrors are held in position by springs (51). On the grab are collision monitors which can automatically deflect the mirrors.
