Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for a video playback apparatus, comprising a band-pass filter arranged after the video heads in the luminance-signal playback channel. The frequency characteristic of the band-pass filter is variable in order to influence the amplitude characteristic of the FM sideband spectrum. The band-pass filter is followed by an FM demodulator and a crispening circuit. The frequency characteristic of the band-pass filter is controlled automatically depending on the level of the high-frequency components in the demodulated luminance signal in that the frequency characteristic of the band-pass filter is varied by means of a pre-emphasised luminance signal taken from the crispening circuit in such a way that a luminance signal whose FM spectrum in substantially amplitude-symmetrical relative to the FM carrier frequency is produced on the output of the band-pass filter.

Abstract: ® In a continuous ink jet printing method for printing multiple lines of print (13-15), raster of drops is produced in which the differential charge between drops printed on opposite sides of an interline gap (17, 18) is increased in comparison with that between adjacent drops to be printed within a line (13-15). At the same time the number of guard drops is maintained the same or is reduced between the printable drops immediately adjacent to the interline gap, so that the distance between printed drops immediately adjacent to the interline gap is increased without increasing the number of drops in the raster.

Abstract: In an electro-fusion welding process a fault, e.g. due to incorrect assembly of the pipe joint components, is detected by sensing the welding current and emitting a signal to actuate an audible or visible alarm and/or to interrupt the welding process, if the welding current increases unexpectedly. A reference signal dependent upon the current dependent signal produced by the sensor (1) and RMS to DC converter (2) at a time t, is held by a converter (5) and is compared by a comparator (7) with the current dependent signal transmitted through converter (6) at subsequent intervals. So that the device does not react to transient current increase a delay arrangement (9-12) delays the output signal for a given time.

Abstract: Process for loosening the lower and upper regions of the soil for applying fertilisers, as well as for loosening the underground layer of the soil and/or for working the upper layer of the soil, and for applying other additives using digging tools (2, 2', 2'') to break up the soil. The digging edge of the digging tool (2, 2',2'') moves in an ellipse overlying a rectilinear movement, i.e. the direction of motion. The resulting movement of the digging edge is therefore a cycloid. The longest axis of the ellipse goes from the surface of the soil into the soil and is inclined in relation to the direction of motion. The additive, for example a fertilizer, can be blown into the crevice which is formed behind the tool (2).

Granted: 1992-04-15
Abstract: The strand produced in a bar or tube extrusion press is drawn off with a controlled tensile force which keeps the emerging strand taut but should not influence the formation of the said strand. In order to keep constant the tensile force acting on the strand in the die zone, the procedure according to the invention is as follows: superimposed on this tensile force (draw-off force) matched to the cross-section and flow behaviour in the die is a tensile force (tractive force) which increases in proportion to the length of strand extruded and takes account of the weight per unit length and the coefficient of friction between the strand and the run-out table. The particular method adopted for this purpose is as follows: after a strand has been cut off and removed from the die, the tractive force and the length of the strand delivered are measured and the tractive force divided by the strand length is input as the specific profile friction force to be multiplied by the strand length, the latter being determined by displacement measurement, when a subsequent strand of the same desired cross-section is extruded. Control is carried out as follows: the desired value determined and input for the tensile force exerted on the tip of the strand is, in addition to a value taking into account the resistance to motion of the carriage of the drawing-off device, as the first summand, and a strand cross-section-dependent base value of the draw-off force, as the second summand, an increasing value, the respective product of the result of continuous delivery path measurement and predetermined specific profile friction force between the emerging strand and the run-out table, as third summand, beginning with the grasping of the tip of the strand by the grippers of the drawing-off device.

Abstract: The effectiveness of organic additives acting as inhibitors during the electrolytic deposition of metals from aqueous electrolytes, which contain organic additives for improving the deposition of metal, is electrically measured. In order to permit an improved and more reliable check of the effectiveness of the inhibitor and to permit a controlled supply of makeup inhibitors at the required rate, a partial stream of the electrolyte is supplied to flow at a constant velocity in a measuring cell provided with at least three wire electrodes having a fresh conductor surface, a measuring current of 5 mA to 1.0 A is supplied to the electrodes and is maintained, and the slope of the plotted cathode potential-time curve in the range from 0.1 to 50 minutes is taken as a measure of the effective conecentration of the inhibitor. The method can be used to measure the effective inhibitor concentration in an electrolyte used to electrorefine copper and to measure the effective conecentration of brightener in the electrodeposition of metal.

Granted: 1991-09-11
Abstract: This invention relates to glass (1,4) carrying an electroconductive coating (7) and, in particular, to a method of applying bus bars (3,6) on the glass (1,4) to establish electrical contact with the coating (7) and to coated glass (1,4) provided with bus bars (3,6) in accordance with the invention. The method of applying the bus bars (3,6) to the electroconductive coating (7) involves arc spraying molten metal e.g. aluminium on to the coated glass (1,4) in the required configuration which can be defined by either placing a stencil over the surface of the coated glass (1,4) or using adhesive tape (5) to define the required configuration, and then spraying the molten metal. Aluminium has been found to be a most suitable metal for the bus bars and this can be oversprayed with a layer of copper, zinc, tin, a tin alloy, stainless steel, nickel, brass or copper nickel alloy if required. In certain circumstances, for use in architectural applications for e.g. electromagnetic shielding purposes, the bus bars are wrapped around the edge of the glass to provide electrical contact means when the glass is used in a laminate or a double glazing unit.
