Abstract: Un capteur capacitif (1) comprend une électrode centrale (2), une électrode extérieure (3), un isolateur (4), ainsi qu'une plaque de support (5) sur laquelle est montée la partie électronique (6) afin de mesurer des changements de capacité lorsque le capteur (1) est placé à proximité d'un film (12), ce changement permettant, par un étalonnage adapté, une mesure de l'épaisseur d'un film. De l'air sous pression est alimenté par un orifice d'admission (10) et s'écoule, par l'intermédiaire de la chambre (9), à travers des orifices (8) afin de produire une couche d'air (11) entre le capteur (1) et un film (12). Cet agencement maintient le film (12) et le capteur (1) espacés, de manière qu'aucune détérioration n'est infligée au film (11) ou aux électrodes (2, 3) par contact mutuel, tout en gardant une faible séparation, en empêchant un mouvement relatif en par conséquent des changements indésirables de capacité. L'électrode extérieure (3) peut comprendre des peaux intérieure et extérieure (13, 14) (Figure 2) définissant un passage (15) pour l'air sous pression, de manière que l'air pouvant contenir de l'huile et des polluants aqueux à moins d'être filtré, ne passe pas à travers la chambre (9) et ne vienne pas au contact de la partie électronique (6).

Patent EP-0587092-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SUMIDA DAVID S
IPC: H01S3/16
Filed: 1993-09-06
Abstract: A laser structure that reduces thermally-induced mounting stress on low fracture strength solid-state laser rods (e.g. Nd:YLF). A transparent sleeve (14) of relatively high strength optical material that has relatively high thermal conductivity (e.g. MgF₂ or Al₂O₃) is provided around the laser rod (13), and a thin layer (15) of elastomer (e.g. of a silicon gel) is provided between the laser material and the transparent sleeve. This arrangement of laser material, transparent sleeve, and elastomer allows sealing of a cooling fluid flow channel (20) disposed around the laser/sleeve assembly using conventional means without applying stress directly to the laser rod material. This reduces the risk of fracturing the laser rod material due to thermal expansion near the seal (24) and allows the laser to be operated at higher average power levels. The elastomer layer and high thermal conductivity sleeve efficiently conduct heat from the laser rod to the surrounding cooling liquid. This structure also minimizes damage to the surface of the strengthened laser rods due to handling and coolant erosion thereby preserving the thermal stress fracture resistance properties of the laser rod during transport, manufacturing assembly, operation, and maintenance.

Abstract: A photographic camera with a pseudo-telephoto mode of operation, a flash unit, and a picture taking lens that can be set at a plurality of focal lengths includes a controller that responds to a low-light condition by activating the flash unit, positioning the picture taking lens at a reduced available lens focal length than that selected by the user, and by placing the camera in a pseudo-telephoto mode, in which a frame image from the picture taking lens is designated as a pseudo-telephoto frame. The reduced focal length provides a lens setting with increased light-gathering ability. The focal length selected by the controller can provide a print that, in combination with pseudo-telephoto processing, will provide a print with a relative magnification approximately equal to a print that otherwise would be provided from the lens focal length setting initially selected by the camera user.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a quick-acting gate valve for installation on intake and exhaust openings of ventilation systems, in particular, of rapid railway vehicles, comprising a frame containing at least one passage slot provided with an adjustable closure element which relative to the passage slot can be placed into closed and open positions by a servo drive controlled in response to air pressure. In order to permit actuation of a quick-acting gate valve of this type substantially in a friction-free manner during opening and closing, the valve, in the practice of the invention, is so designed that the edges laterally confining the at least one passage slot relative to the in-flow direction are of a convex curvature. Behind the edges, the closure element is designed and arranged in the form of a similarly convex yet lesser curved leaf spring, the length of which corresponds at least to the length of the convex-curved edges of the passage slot. One end of the leaf spring is held on the frame while the other end thereof is displaceably guided on the frame.

Abstract: A discriminating circuit discriminates the degree of similarity between an image represented by an input image signal and a predetermined specific image. A CPU outputs a pattern-level selecting signal based upon the results of discrimination performed by the discriminating circuit. A pattern adding circuit modulates an internally stored specific pattern in accordance with an added-color designating signal and pattern-level selecting signal produced by the CPU, and adds the modulated specific pattern to the image signal. As a result, a pattern specific to the apparatus is added in a reliably identifiable manner to an image output having a high probability of containing the specific original. In the case of an image output having a low probability of containing the specific original, the specific pattern is added to this image output in such a manner that the picture quality thereof is not diminished by the pattern.
