Title: Machine mailing including improved sheet feeding means
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 1990-02-07
Abstract: A mailing machine (10) includes a postage meter (16) and a housing 
(14) for supporting the postage meter (16), 
and means for individually feeding 
sheets (20) in a path of travel (22) 
through the machine (10). The postage meter (16) 
includes rotary means (24) for printing 
indicia on the sheets (20) and a roller (66) 
spaced downstream in the path of 
travel (22) from the rotary printing means (24). 
The sheet feeding means includes an 
impression roller (60) and a shaft (61) 
on which the impression roller (60) is mounted 
for rotation therewith; an ejection 
roller (62) and a shaft (63) on which 
the ejection roller (62) is mounted for 
rotation therewith; and an elongated 
carriage (67) including a pair of side 
walls (67A) spaced apart from each other, 
one end of each of the side walls (67A) 
including an arcuately-shaped portion (67C) 
pivotally attaching the carriage 
(67) including a pair of side walls (67A) 
spaced apart from each other, one 
end of each of the side walls (67A) including 
an arcuately-shaped portion (67C) 
pivotally attaching the carriage (67) to 
the housing (14) and forming a generally C-shaped 
bearing bushing. The ejection 
roller (62) shaft (63) is rotatably mounted 
within the bearing bushings for supporting 
the ejection roller (62) beneath the 
postage meter roller (66) and the impression 
roller (60) is rotatably connected to the 
carriage side walls (67A) for supporting the 
impression roller (60) beneath the rotary 
printing means (24). A spring (68) connects 
the other end of the carriage (67) to the 
housing (14) to permit the carriage (62) to pivot 
downwardly about the ejection roller 
shaft (63) against the force exerted by 
the spring (68) as the ejection roller shaft (63) 
rotates within the bearing bushings, thereby permitting mixed thickness 
sheets (20) to be individually fed 
between the rotary printing means (24) and 
impression roller (60).

Title: Improvements in fluid flow valve assemblies
IPC: F16K31/40
Filed: 1990-06-05
Abstract: A fluid flow valve assembly comprises a piston (7) 
working in a bore (6) in a housing (1) with a 
rolling/sliding seal (8) between the piston and the 
bore. The piston (7) defines a valve member between 
first and second chambers (12,13) and includes a valve 
head (11) for engagement with a seating (4) surrounding 
an outlet passage (3), and a restricted passage (17) 
between an inlet (2) and the first chamber (12). A 
solenoid-operated control valve (19) is movable between 
open and closed positions to control communication 
between the chambers (12,13). When the control 
valve (19) closes, and the piston (7) moves towards the 
seating (4), the rolling seal (8) acts to damp movement 
of the piston.

Abstract: Methods and systems for encoding data
representative of a sequence of video frames for
transmission to a decoder. A motion compensated
predictive coder (24) substantially losslessly
compresses the data, computes a motion vector, and
forms an intermediate coded representation which
includes the compressed data and the motion vector. A

(24) and the frame detector (26). The digital storage
device (22) stores the intermediate coded
representation and stores a representation of the
frames having the prediction error which exceeds the
predetermined threshold. A lossless decoder (29),
coupled to the digital storage device (22),
substantially losslessly decodes the intermediate
coded representation to form a decoded representation.
A recoder (28), which compresses the decoded
representation at a compression ratio in dependence
upon a selectable bit rate for transmission, is
coupled to the digital storage device (22) and the
lossless decoder (29).

Abstract: Method and apparatus for rotational machinery analysis, for example RPM determination, employs a piezoelectric cable which is subjected to localised loading from vibration or movement generated by the machine and which produces a corresponding electrical or electronic output related to machine speed. This output is electronically analysed to produce an engine speed output by reference to one or more characteristics of the piezoelectric element's output including the dominant peak component of the voltage or the power spectral density. A drive-on piezoelectric sensor allows roadside diesel engine RPM and smoke tests without engine access. In other embodiments, localised loading of the piezoelectric element is effected by a ribbed or otherwise profiled loading plate. <IMAGE>
