Date Jan. 21, 1993.A mechanism for the control of cows within a milking shed that includes a plurality of dividers mounted so as to be movable from a first or raised position, whereupon cows can move beneath the dividers, to a second or lower position where the dividers are capable of preventing movement by the cows. The dividers are spaced apart so as to provide a plurality of milking stalls. Each of the dividers has an outer end, an inner end, an upper rail, a lower rail, and a plurality of vertical rails connecting the upper rail to the lower rail. Each outer end has pivotally mounted thereto an end gate pivotable between a transverse position and a position approximately co-planar with the dividers by movement of a cow into the stall immediately past the divider. Each divider is pivotally mounted to a milking shed wall and the lower rail is inclined upwardly at the inner end of each divider and joins the upper rail at the wall pivotal mounting.

Abstract: Wing stays, suitable particularly for turn-and-tilt window wings, are provided with a bearing pedestal (1) to be fastened to one of the two window frames, particularly to the fixed frame, with a fixing arm (2) connected pivotably to the bearing pedestal (1) and pivotable outwards transversely to the wing plane, and with a fixing pin (3) to be brought into fixing engagement with the fixing arm (2) and to be fastened to the other frame, particularly to the casement, the fixing arm (2) being provided with a toothed strip (11) and with a displacement track (12), running parallel thereto, for the fixing pin (3) and with a covering strip (13) engaging over the displacement track (12) and being under the effect of a spring (16) which seeks to press the fixing arm (2) into the pivoted-out position and which allows the fixing pin (3) to pass through a passage slot (14), located in the covering strip (13) near the bearing pedestal (1), only in the position of the fixing arm (2) in which the latter is pressed against the fixed frame (4). So that the wing stay can be produced in an even more cost-saving and stable manner, the bearing pedestal (1) is designed as a bearing fork (1) of U-shaped profile, of which the bearing-fork cheeks (7,8) project upwards on both sides of its bearing bottom (6) to be fastened so as to rest on the fixed frame (4) engage sealingly around the articulation end (2') of the fixing arm (2) and are provided with bearing lugs (9), located near the bearing bottom, for bearing journals (10) projecting on both sides at the articulation end (2'). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The camera system (10, 100) of the present invention simultaneously searches for a number of differing optical acquisition targets (44). Upon detecting an acquisition target (44) it decodes according to corresponding differing decoding algorithms. To facilitate this operation there is a system bus (170) as well as a dedicated data bus (172) for applying a scan signal of an optical scanning device (154) to differing detection circuitry. This system may decode, for example, both bar codes and concentric rings. The scan signal is constantly adjusted according to both a dark reference for correcting offset and a white reference for correcting gain. The gain is also corrected according to the scanning rate as well as the amount of illumination present. A measure of this illumination may be applied directly to the optical scanning device (154) by way of a fiber optic cable (402) which transmits light from the illumination source (15). When detecting concentric rings the system of the present invention uses stored templates which represent a number of transformations of the target (44), for example, a number of magnifications. When the transformation of a target (44) is determined, the corresponding stored template is correlated with the scan signal from the optical scanning device (154). To detect concentric rings the scan signal is applied to interleaving circuitry (180) which correlates more than one scan at a time to provide constant throughput even though the stages of the detector operate at different speeds. Optical calibration is eliminated by fixed optics wherein all optical elements are rigidly mounted at very close tolerances. The illumination source (15) is disposed on one focus (22) of an ellipse (18) wherein the other focus (24) is disposed at the maximum scanning distance and the reflector (14) is formed to define the illumination ellipse (18) to maximize the light applied to the object (42). The various heat producing elements are disposed in sealed compartments (40a,c) which are cooled by forced air which is circulated through a heat exchanger. A real time focusing system (500) is provided wherein the distance from the scanning device (154) to an opposing surface (20, 42) is constantly monitored and the system is constantly focused according to the distance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A liquid crystal device is constituted by a pair of oppositely disposed substrates respectively having thereon a group of stripe-shaped scanning electrodes and a group of stripe-shaped data electrodes disposed to intersect the scanning electrodes and a liquid crystal disposed between the scanning electrodes and the data electrodes so as to form a pixel at each intersection of the scanning electrodes and the data electrodes. The liquid crystal device is driven by applying a scanning selection signal sequentially to the scanning electrodes, and applying data signals to the data electrodes while phase modulating the data signals depending on given gradation data. One unit period of data signal is divided into plural sections, the data signals in each section are phase-modulated in one direction in accordance with an increase in gradation data, and the data signals in mutually adjacent sections are phase-modulated in mutually opposite directions in accordance with an increase in gradation data.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a packet communications network, the addition or deletion of a connection to the network by a user is governed by a link traffic metric which represents the effective capacity of each link in the network which participates in the packet connection route. The link metric is calculated in real-time and updated by simple vector addition or subtraction. Moreover, this link metric is also used to calculate leaky bucket parameters which govern the access of packets to the network once the connection is set up. A packet network using these link metrics and metric generation techniques provides maximum packet throughput while, at the same time, preserving grade of service guarantees. <IMAGE>
