Abstract: A lead frame is fabricated by a stamping system, and the lead
frame 1 having a predetermined pattern is fabricated by blanking
a lead frame material by a progressive stamping die apparatus
while the lead frame material is being consecutively
transferred. A pressing force is applied to burrs occurring
during the fabrication of the lead frame 1 so as to squeeze the
burrs, thereby forming coined portions 6 and 7. Next, a coined
groove 8 is formed horizontally on the surface of the lead frame
1 at a position slightly above a resin liquid level 4. Resin
climbing 5 in which the resin rises from the liquid level due
to a capillary phenomenon is stopped at the position of the
coined groove 8 thus formed, thereby allowing soldering of the
lead frame 1 to be effected without a hindrance.

Abstract: In a transmission for automobiles, the shift feeling is improved by
smoothly transferring the operational load between a shift rod (78) and a reverse shift
fork (50). This is accomplished by cam faces (a,b,c) formed on a reverse shift fork which
shifts a reverse idle gear (41) between a neutral position and a reverse position, and
cam faces (d,e) are formed on a drive cam (88) which moves integrally with a shift rod.
When the drive cam is moved from a neutral position to the reverse position, one
of the cam faces presses against another of the cam faces moving the reverse shift
fork in a circular manner in an anticlockwise direction, and the reverse idle gear
moves to the reverse position. When the drive cam member is moved from the
reverse position to the neutral position, another of the cam faces presses against
still another of the cam faces moving the reverse shift fork in a circular manner in
a clockwise direction, and the reverse idle gear moves to the neutral position.

Abstract: An Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) receiver (10) that
detects and corrects a carrier frequency offset of a received signal is provided.
The OFDM receiver (10) samples an incoming signal in the time domain and
correlates (68) the samples with a stored version of a training or reference
symbol to generate a correlation sequence. A correlation peak is detected (70)
in the correlation sequence and the index of the correlation peak is set as a
reference point (72, 74). The OFDM receiver acquires a sample of the incoming
signal that is a predetermined distance from the reference point (74). Next, the
phase difference between the acquired sample and the local oscillator is
computed (74). Afterwards, the frequency of the local oscillator is adjusted to
reduce the computed phase difference (76, 80). The acquired sample has a
known phase that is equal to the phase of the local oscillator in the absence of a
carrier frequency offset. Thus, reducing the phase difference between the
predetermined sample and the local oscillator causes the carrier frequency offset
to converge towards zero.

Abstract: A lightweight, easy to assemble, and compact exciter assembly for a compaction device such as a drum assembly of a vibratory trench roller or the like includes a fixed weight and one or more free swinging weights mounted on an exciter shaft, without using any mounting hardware, so as to hold the free swinging weights axially in position while permitting them to swing between first and second angular positions on the exciter shaft. Preferably, the fixed weight is mounted on a central portion of the exciter shaft, and two free swinging weights are mounted adjacent the ends of the fixed weight so as to be restrained from substantial sliding movement along the exciter shaft solely by the fixed weight and other operative components of the exciter assembly such as bearings and/or gears or other torque transfer elements. The reduction in length afforded by this design permits a reversible hydraulic motor to be mounted coaxially on the end of the exciter shaft without unacceptably increasing the overall length of a drum assembly, thereby further simplifying the machine's assembly and facilitating maintenance or repair of the machine. <IMAGE>
