Abstract: The mechanism for loading and unloading a disk cartridge (13) uses two sliders (70, 73) (one on each side of a base plate (46)), which move in opposite directions under the influence of a tiller (76). Each slider (70, 73) has a slot (262, 281) to receive one of the two lifting pins (136, 139) provided on the cartridge receiver (82). The movement of the sliders (70, 73) drives the lifting pins (136, 139) along the slots (262, 281), thereby raising or lowering the cartridge receiver (82) depending upon the direction of rotation of the tiller (76). The sliding motion of the lifting pins (136, 139) engaged in the S-shaped slots (262, 281) thus unloads a disk (14) from or, alternatively, loads the disk (14) onto the drive spindle (61). As the lifting pins (136, 139) travel along their respective slots (262, 281), the lifting and lowering of the disk (14) is accomplished in such a manner that the disk hub (15) is peeled from the spindle magnet (63) rather than being lifted vertically off the spindle (61). This reduces the peak force required to break the magnetic clamp force between the spindle magnet (63) and the disk hub (15). In this system, the dust door (91) is attached to the cartridge receiver, and the label end of the loaded cartridge (13) remains visible when the disk (14) is loaded. This system may include a bias coil assembly (94) rotatably mounted on an arm (97) so that the bias coil assembly (94) may be loaded into or extracted from the disk cartridge (14) and placed out of the travel path of the disk cartridge (14). The rotation of the bias coil arm (97) is effected by one of the sliders (70, 73).

Abstract: The method involves taking a sample from the material, sieving sample and using the sieved material to fill a measurement container of a predetermined volume. The content of the full container is weighed. The density of the content of the container is determined. The quotient of the weight of the content of the container over the volume of the container is determined. The weight of the whole amount of material is determined. The weight of the part is divided by the material density of the content of the container. To sieve the material, the method uses a machine operated roller type sieve system (1) which sieves different granule fractions in the sieving process. During the sieve process, first a fine granule fraction is sieved out. Then each sieved out fraction is sieved again with the next larger granules. Remaining granules (2) and the sieved fractions are used to fill the container.

Abstract: A data transfer control system for a computer system having a packet-switched data bus,
for controlling the transfer of data words from a device having one bus width to a device having a
different bus width. The first bus may be the master bus, and the second bus is a bus of a functional
unit, such as a memory or other device, connected to the computer system and coupled to
the master bus. When the second bus is smaller than the first bus, the data transfer control system
accommodates this by transferring only partial words per clock cycle to the second bus, effectively
delaying the transference of data to a rate that the second bus can handle. The transfer rate
factor is substantially equal to the ratio of the second bus width to the first bus width. In an alternative
embodiment, the data transfer control system transfers the data words at substantially the
full rate available, given the computer system's processor or clock speed and the width of the master
bus, and the words are buffered before transference to the second bus. The speed of transference
to the buffer is then not limited by the size of the second bus, but only by the size of the
buffer, which preferably has an input bus at least as wide as that of the master bus. The system
accommodates functional units of different sizes all to be couple to a master bus of a given size,
where the different sizes may be larger or smaller than the master bus size, and accordingly the
functional units can be built with optimal bus sizes for their particular functions without having to
conform to a perhaps inappropriate, inefficient or expensive or wasteful master bus size.

Abstract: A data processing method and apparatus utilising
said method, employs a novel Gradiometer Transform
technique of analysing data. The technique is
useful in a range of fields including
electrophysiology. non-destructive testing and
geoscience. It is particularly applicable to the
extraction of signals and other information from
data subject to noise and/or background drift. The
technique mimics the operation of physical
gradiometer devices, but provides greater
flexibility of use than physical devices of this
type. The method comprises generating a plurality
of components of a gradiometer transform by
correlating a normalised data-set with a plurality
of gradiometer step functions of differing orders.
Said step functions are selected to successively
eliminate components of a Taylor expansion of said
data-set. The data-set may comprise sampled data and
said correlation of the data-set with said step
functions is performed using a modified data set in
which each data sample is replaced by a piecewise
continuous rectangular step function. The method
may include a subsequent step of calculating a
plurality of coefficients of at least one polynomial
representing said data-set.

Abstract: Dans un système de communications numériques, un signal échantillonné est reconstitué avec précision (et non approximativement) même dans des cas de réglage de phase du signal d'échantillonnage. Plus particulièrement, le signal échantillonné subit une correction de phase dans le domaine de fréquences en fonction des exemplaires d'échantillonnage dans le domaine temporel. Dans le contexte d'annulation d'écho, une fonction de transfert d'écho est générée et représente la réponse impulsionnelle du canal d'écho. Des composantes de repliement présentes dans la réponse impulsionnelle de l'écho sont spécifiquement identifiées et subissent une correction dans le domaine de fréquences lorsque chaque coefficient spectral de filtre de la fonction de transfert d'écho est traité, sous la forme d'une somme d'une composante de bande de base et d'une composante de substitution. Outre une correction précise de la phase d'échantillonnage, cette technique diminue considérablement les contraintes d'échantillonnage traditionnel.
