Abstract: Repointing gun (1) comprises a chamber (3) for grout, etc., and a feed screw (2) for feeding the grout out of a nozzle (8). The gun (1) is hand-held, with a self-contained power supply (23) and reversible drive motor (4) coupled to the feed screw shaft (16) by gears (22). Mixing blades (20) mix the material in the chamber (3) during reverse operation of the drive. During forward drive operation, the grout is forced out of the nozzle (8) by compression blades (21) and feed screw (2). The gun allows for simple, fast and clean grouting of brickwork, etc., with little waste. The gun may be used with any fluent material and in other fields. The power supply (23) and drive (4) could be replaced by power supply lines from a separate source and a mechanical flexible drive, respectively.

Abstract: On améliore considérablement la performance à faible vitesse en réduisant les sources indésirées de rétrodiffusion. La rétrodiffusion est éliminée en repositionnant certaines des sources de rétrodiffusion pour diriger toute rétrodiffusion réfléchie hors du plan laser. Les éléments optiques montés sur boîtier d'un système de lecture monté sur boîtier sont positionnés de sorte que tous les services initiaux rencontrés par les signaux optiques font un angle qui n'est pas normal au signal optique. Ce positionnement fait en sorte que toute réflexion en dehors des surfaces susmentionnées soit dirigée à l'opposé du plan laser afin d'éliminer la possibilité que ces réflexions soient couplées en retour dans la cavité laser.

Abstract: A normally white liquid crystal display is provided with a positively birefringent uniaxial retardation film having a retardation value of from about 100 - 200 nm. The retardation film is provided on one side of the liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal being sandwiched between a pair of orientation or buffing films which orient the liquid crystal molecules adjacent thereto in predetermined directions. The optical axis of the retardation film is rotated from about 2 DEG  - 20 DEG , most preferably from about 6 DEG  - 10 DEG relative to the buffing direction on the opposite side of the liquid crystal layer. This rotation of the retardation film optical axis allows for the high contrast ratio viewing zone of the display to be shifted vertically into either the positive or negative vertical viewing region depending upon the direction of rotation of the retardation film optical axis. Alternatively, biaxial retardation films having similar retardation values may be utilizied according to the teachings of this invention. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for reducing power consumption of an electronic device comprising at least one voltage regulator. The regulating loop of at least one voltage regulator of the electronic device is controlled into a slower mode during periods when normal voltage regulator accuracy is not required, this period being known by the electronic device. The voltage regulator loop is controlled into a slower mode by switching the slew rate into a slower mode with the aid of an auxiliary input (SLEEP) arranged in the voltage regulator's differential amplifier (2) and by decreasing the current flowing through the differential amplifier. The invention is applicable in different electronic devices, particularly in battery powered devices in order to increase the operational time of the battery. For instance, in order to reduce the power consumption the voltage regulator of a mobile telephone can be switched into a slower mode between the control channel messages received from a base station. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The proposed protective helmet comprises a stable helmet shell made up of several connected segments (10, 20, 30, 40). Each segment (10, 20, 30, 40) consists substantially of a plastic foam core (12, 22, 42) which provides the requisite strength and an additional covering layer (11, 21, 41). In order to create a protective helmet which combines a particularly attractive appearance, a high degree of comfort and lightness, while also fulfilling all the safety requirements relating to the particular purposes for which it is used, and which can be manufactured simply and on an industrial scale, it is proposed that the covering layer (11, 21, 41) should be made of leather or a similar material, and that the synthetic core (12, 22, 42) should be produced and foamed in situ on the leather layer (11, 21, 41) which has been placed in a mould (100). Securing means (60) are embedded in the synthetic core (12, 22, 42) to allow the subsequent permanent, non-dissoluble assembly of the segments (10, 20, 30, 40).

Abstract: In a technique for motion compensation encoding, a digital video signal is pre-filtered in a first filter and motion information derived from the same video signal pre-filtered in a second filter is used to encode the first-filtered video signal. More specifically, a received digital video signal is filtered in a first pre-filter (101), which has a controllable filter characteristic that varies in response to several characteristics of the received digital video signal. The originally received digital video signal also is filtered in a second pre-filter (102). A motion vector is derived (105) from motion that is detected in the second filtered signal, and the first filtered video signal is motion compensation encoded using the derived motion vector of the second filtered video signal. <IMAGE>
