Title: Electro magnetic relay
IPC: H01H51/22
Filed: 1991-11-05
Abstract: An electromagnetic relay has an armature (10) which is supported such that it can pivot about a central axis and, in its two limit positions, rests with its two ends against in each case opposite ends (19, 20) of a yoke so that a three-point support is produced in each limit position. Each armature end is allocated at least one contact system (21...24) with a stationary contact (28) and a contact spring (26) which can be moved by the armature (10) via an operating device (31, 32). The contact springs (26) are pretensioned in a laterally asymmetric manner with respect to the armature longitudinal axis (L) in such a manner that the positioning forces (F1, F2) exerted by them on the armature (10) in its two limit positions are directed in the same direction at right angles to the armature longitudinal axis (L). In contrast, the armature support is installed such that it absorbs a supporting force (K) which is parallel to but opposes the positioning forces (F1, F2). In consequence, when the armature (10) is pivoted from each of its limit positions, simultaneous release of both armature ends from the yoke ends (19, 20) is ensured. <IMAGE>

Title: Cable end fitting device
IPC: H01R24/28

Title: Path hunt for efficient broadcast and multicast connections in multi-stage switching fabrics.
Inventor: PAWELSKI ROBERT LEE
IPC: H04Q3/545
Filed: 1993-12-08
Abstract: To efficiently implement the algorithm for branching each broadcast call as close to the output of a multi-stage switching fabric as possible, the path hunt for a call path is performed by examining the actual contents of control memories (in time slot interchangers (131,141) and time-multiplexed switch (120)) that control the switching stages of the switching system, in order to determine whether - and if so, where - the desired call path may be branched from an existing call path inside of the switching system. For efficiency and speed, the examination is performed by monitoring control memory contents being read out for the purpose of controlling the switching stages, and contents of control memories of multiple stages are monitored in parallel using dedicated monitoring hardware. To avoid the need to examine the control memories' contents in order to determine how much of a call path can be torn down without breaking call path segments shared with other existing call paths, separate counts are kept of instances of present use of connections between stages of the switching fabric, which counts are incremented upon creation of any branching paths that use these connections and are decremented upon breaking of any branching paths that use these connections. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1994-09-14
Abstract: Time division multiplex telecommunication exchange. In a test mode, a check bit combination, in which one bit has one binary value and the remaining bits have the other binary value, is fed continuously to the inputs of the space stage unit (MUXS0 to MUXS15). One bit is switched through to each output (SLT0 to SLT15) in succession. The operations are then repeated with an inverted check bit combination. The procedure is repeated until a single bit of one and the other binary value is switched through from each input to each output. Monitoring for the occurrence of the expected check bit combinations is carried out on the output side. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A moving picture is encoded into groups of video image
pictures with each frame composed of fields of different field
polarities including a predetermined field polarity. The
polarity of the first field of a series of frames to be encoded
into a respective group of image pictures is set to the
predetermined field polarity. Alternatively, the polarity of the
first field of the series of frames may be identified by data
transmitted with the encoded moving picture. The encoded moving
picture is decoded at a decode start time designated when the
first field in each respective group of image pictures is of the
predetermined field polarity. Alternatively, the decode start
time is generated on the basis of the data designating the field
polarity of the first field. A computer-readable medium provides
a medium on which the encoded moving picture is recorded and
directs a ccmputer to decode the encoded moving picture when the
first image picture in each respective group of image pictures is
an encoded field of the predetermined field polarity or,
alternatively, when the field read from the medium is the first
field as designated by designating data.
