Title: Apparatus for reproducing video and audio signals
IPC: H04N9/83
Filed: 1983-02-11
Abstract: Drop-outs are detected and compensated for in an apparatus for reproducing video and audio signals that have been recorded as first and second mixed signals in adjacent first and second parallel tracks, respectively, on a magnetic record medium such as a tape and in which each of the mixed signals comprises a video signal mixed with at least one frequency-modulated audio signal, in the case of monaural, having a respective carrier frequency. The recorded mixed signals are reproduced by two magnetic heads (43A, 43B) that scan the adjacent first and second tracks to reproduce alternately the mixed signals recorded thereon, and drop-outs are detected in the reproduced signals. The audio signals are separated (51 to 54) from the reproduced mixed signals, frequency demodulated (59 to 62) and combined (67L, 67R) to form a_ substantially continuous or reconstituted demodulated audio signal. A compensator (70L, 70R) is provided in the demodulated audio signal path and is responsive to the detection of drop-outs by a detector (76) therefor to produce a substantially continuous demodulated audio signal, in which drop-outs are compensated. A second drop-out compensator (90) is provided for compensating the video signal for drop-outs.

Title: Printing press with lacquering device for sheets
IPC: B41F23/08
Filed: 1984-02-08
Abstract: In response to a stop command such as a printing disturbance signal, the transfer of varnish to the varnish applicator roller is shut off but the feeding of sheets through the varnishing unit is not immediately shut off; rather, a few remaining sheets are thereafter fed through the varnishing unit before the varnish applicator roller is thrown off from the cooperating cylinder and the machine drive is shut off. The few remaining sheets remove the residual varnish from the varnish applicator roller so that when printing is resumed the newly printed sheets do not stick to the varnish applicator roller or the cooperating cylinder. In a preferred embodiment a preselection counter, clocked by sheet feed cycles, determines the number of remaining sheets.

Title: Process for the determination of the position and/or dimensions of an object to be tested, and device for carrying it out
IPC: G01B7/00
Filed: 1984-08-28
Abstract: An improved apparatus and process for sensing a test object by means of a switching sensor which is movable relative to the test object, in which the relative position between the test object and the switching sensor is measured by a measuring instrument. The switching sensor generates a switching signal at the moment of contact with the test object in order to cause the instantaneously prevailing measuring value of the measuring instrument to be retained. Such measuring values commonly are characterized by sensing errors as a function of the sensing speed and/or the material pairing between the switching sensor and the test object. In order to correct for such sensing errors the measuring value present at the moment of contact between the switching sensor and the test object is added with previously determined correction values for correcting errors resulting from the velocity of approach between the test object and the switching sensor and/or for the material pairing between the switching sensor and the test object.
