Abstract: In a conventional roller connector, when a spoke member
of a steering device hits against an electrical lead-through
section of a movable housing, there occurs a knocking sound,
which will be unpleasant to the driver. The present invention,
therefore, provides a roller connector which will not produce
the knocking sound. Flexible cables are connected at least
at one end to the electrical lead-through section of a movable
housing. An elastic member is projectingly disposed on an
surface of the upper wall where the electrical lead-through
section protrudes, thus being driven to turn the movable
housing.

IPC: H03F1/32

Abstract: The level wide dynamic signals of the modulation envelope involved in the
present invention are, for instance, the QAM modulated carriers characterised by
multipoint constellations and by an assigned roll-off of the transmission filter, or by the
usual radio signals AM transmitted. In the system of the invention the IF transmission
signal is subjected to a compression of the level dynamic before being sent to a
GaAsFET final microwave power amplifier, thus alleviating the AM/AM and AM/PM
distortions due to gain saturation. The compression introduces a given distortion
degree in the IF signal such to enable the observance of ETSI masks by the RF signal.
In reception, the IF signal is subjected to an expansion of the level dynamic, having
trend opposite to the compression one, before being sent to the demodulator. A
feedback network measures the FEC rate (Forward Error Correction) at the
demodulator and corrects in an adaptive mode a voltage defining the expansion
degree. The expansion causes the signal spectrum to coincide with the spectrum of the
modulated signal, obtaining a perfect linearity of the channel and the reaching of a BER
in the order of 10 -14 , that enables to employ multipoint QAM constellations, for instance
1024. In an analogue implementation, the compression and expansion devices employ
a polarized GaAsFET, in the first case, close to the knee and in the second case close
to the pinch-off (Fig. 7).

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for releasing functional units in a
multithreaded very large instruction word (VLIW) processor. The functional unit release
mechanism can retrieve the capacity lost due to multiple cycle instructions. The
functional unit release mechanism of the present invention permits idle functional units to
be reallocated to other threads, thereby improving workload efficiency. Instruction
packets are assigned to functional units, which can maintain their state, independent of the
issue logic. Each functional unit has an associated state machine (SM) that keeps track of
the number of cycles that the functional unit will be occupied by a multiple-cycle
instruction. Functional units do not reassign themselves as long as the functional unit is
busy. When the instruction is complete, the functional unit can participate in functional
unit allocation, even if other functional units assigned to the same thread are still busy.
The functional unit release approach of the present invention allows the functional units
that are not associated with a multiple-cycle instruction to be allocated to other threads
while the blocked thread is waiting, thereby improving throughput of the multithreaded
VLIW processor. Since the state is associated with each functional unit separately from
the instruction issue unit, the functional units can be assigned to threads independently of
the state of any one thread and its constituent instructions.

Abstract: A handpiece for projecting laser radiation from a solid-state laser via an articulated arm to biological tissue being treated is disclosed. An optical system in the handpiece provides that the laser radiation is projected in a spot of selectively variable size at a fixed distance from the handpiece. The projected spot can be defined as an image of a characteristic invariant cross-section of the laser beam delivered to the handpiece which has about the same width at a wide range of M2 values of the laser beam. This provides that at any mechanically selected size, the size of the projected spot remains substantially constant over the range of M2 values between about 1 and 15. In one example the handpiece projects 2.94 νm radiation in a range of spot sizes between about 0.5 mm and 1.5 mm. Spot size remains substantially constant over a range of M2 values between about 1 and 15.
