Abstract: Un procédé permet d'extraire, côté réception, des données transmises par une section de transmission de flux de données numériques, au moyen d'un générateur de mots de code côté émission permettant de générer un mot de code binaire produisant par autocorrélation une impulsion de Dirac. Les données sont codées côté émission au moyen de ce mot de code et par décalage cyclique et par inversion des autres mots de code binaires ainsi obtenus. Les données sont extraites côté réception par corrélation croisée et par évaluation de la position du principal maximum des fonctions de corrélation croisée. Afin d'augmenter le nombre de mots de code, on utilise côté émission, outre le générateur de mots de code avec un polynôme générateur (G1(x)), un générateur supplémentaire de mots de code ayant différents polynômes générateurs (G2(x)) et (G3(x)). Côté réception, on utilise, outre l'intercorrélateur (51), d'autres intercorrélateurs (52, 53). Le principal maximum des trois fonctions de corrélation croisée produites est détecté et le mot de données transmis est extrait de la position de ce principal maximum avec une valeur supérieure à une valeur prédéterminée.

Abstract: In mass transfer columns, in particular in distillation and extraction columns, fluidized-bed contacting elements (solids) are frequently used to improve the mass transfer. A considerable increase in the mass transfer rate can be achieved if asymmetrically shaped fluidized-bed contacting elements (E) are used which are characterised in that their geometric centre (M) does not coincide with the centre of gravity (S), the geometric centre (M) being defined as the intersection of the body diagonals of the smallest possible parallelepiped (Q) completely enclosing the fluid element. Typical examples of such shapes are egg-shaped or drop-shaped bodies. By means of such fluidized-bed contacting elements, in addition to improving the mass transfer, a reduction of the specific pressure drop can also be achieved. <IMAGE>

IPC: B29C48/14
Filed: 1994-02-09
Abstract: The process relates to the production of extruded foamed plastics, a foaming agent being fed under high pressure to the plastic conveyed in the extruder and the amount of foaming agent being controlled by a servo-valve. If there are fluctuations in the pressure of the polymer melt, the amount of fed foaming agent must be controlled correspondingly by the servo-valve (4). The regulating capabilities of customary servo-valves are often inadequate for this. Therefore, it is proposed to keep the pressure constant behind the servo-valve by means of a pressure-maintaining valve (5) and to control the amount of foaming agent directly as a function of the conveyed polymer melt, preferably via the extruder speed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process is claimed for mfg. a composite tube with two or more layers of different materials, at least one layer being polyethylene (PE) or crosslinked PE and another being metal. Tubes pref. comprise three layers with the metal (2) sandwiched between the plastic layers. The metal layer (2) is thin-walled and cut to suit the dia. of the inner tube (1). The metal layer (2), pref. of aluminium, is wrapped around the continuous inner tube (1) and a gas-tight weld formed between the contacting free ends. The plastic inner tube (1) acts as a bending mandrel for the metal band (2) and moves continuously and synchronously with it. Tube shape and dimensional tolerances are determined by the plastic tube (1) and therefore calibration and reducing devices are unnecessary. Exclusion of oxygen from the construction improves welding and the bond between the inner tube (1) and metal band (2). Free edges on the metal (2) are turned up by a shaping tool to form mating faces which when welded are gas tight. The free edges of the metal layer (2) are trimmed in a machine in front of the tube forming machine to ensure equal band (2) width and oxide free edges for gas welding. Turned-up edges act as stabilisers and guides for the tube during continuous prodn.

Title: Double acting dynamic backlash compensation driving system
Inventor: YANG TAI-HER
IPC: F16H57/12
Filed: 1994-11-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to a double acting type dynamic back spacing removed driving system which comprises a non-reversible transmission worm gear and worm set including two sets of worms coupling with a worm gear. When the system is driven, one prime worm continues applying rotary driving force, and whether or not the worm gear is driven, such force continues to engage the prime work permanently. A second prime worm is to control displacement and also couples with another worm gear (or is co-axially secured to the respective worm gear with the same or different pitch). Due to the different driven speeds of the two sets of worms when rotating in opposite directions, a tensive state is produced between the threads of the two sets of worms and the worm wheel and back-lash is eliminated. On rotation in one direction, one set of worms is driven faster and the other set is driven more slowly. When the direction is reversed, the respective speeds of the sets of worms are also reversed. The speed difference in either direction of rotation is taken up by one set of torsion limiting transmission devices so that back lash is eliminated.

Abstract: A method is provided for determining the minority carrier surface recombination lifetime constant (t s ) of a specimen of semiconductor material. The specimen is positioned between a pair of electrodes, the specimen being disposed on one of the electrodes and being spaced form the other electrode. A signal is provided corresponding to the capacitance between the specimen and the electrode spaced from the specimen. A region of the surface of the specimen is illuminated with a beam of light of predetermined wavelengths and which is intensity modulated at a predetermined frequency and varying in intensity over a predetermined range. A fixed bias voltage V g  is applied between the pair of electrodes, the fixed bias voltage being of a value such that the semiconductor surface is in a state of depletion or inversion. A signal is provided representing the ac photocurrent induced at the region of the specimen illuminated by the light beam. The intensity of the light beam and frequency of modulation of the light beam are selected such that the ac photocurrent is nearly proportional to the intensity of the light beam and reciprocally proportional to the frequency of modulation of the light beam. A signal is provided corresponding to the illumination intensity of the beam of light. The surface minority carrier recombination time constant (t s ) is then determined using the ac photocurrent capacitance and illumination intensity information.
