Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cleaning a valve sealing arrangement under dynamic stress, and an apparatus for carrying out said method, each sealing arrangement sealing two spaces from one another by means of two seals, separated from one another, in a serial arrangement, between or in which spaces there is arranged in a moveable manner a valve part whose jacket surface interacts with the seals and thereby prevents fluids overflowing from one space to the other, an annular space, enclosing the valve part, being provided between the seals, which annular space is bounded on the outside by a housing of the valve and which is connected via at least in each case one connection and one outlet opening to the environment of the valve. The invention ensures, inter alia, that even those critical regions of the slots for the seals which can be accessed only with difficulty are reliably subjected to the cleaning agent. In terms of the method, this is achieved, inter alia, in that the seal which comes into contact with the fluid to be sealed off is supplied with cleaning fluid from the spaces on both sides of the contact surfaces, up to its contact surfaces (provided temporarily at the sealing points) with the valve part on the one hand and the housing on the other hand. The apparatus for carrying out the method is characterised, inter alia, in that each seal (70, 71) is edged in each case on its side facing the space inside the valve housing part (1 or 2) to be sealed by a fluid-permeable boundary wall (41), and in that each of the seals has a limited mobility in the direction of movement of the valve part (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Apparatus for processing one or more optical signals to produce a desired polarisation transformation on a Poincaré sphere has particular application in a receiver for a coherent communication system. One or more birefringent elements 11 receive a polarised optical signal from a local oscillator 12, and vary the state of polarisation of the local optical signal in order to match it to a received optical signal from a remote source on a line 13. The transformed local signal is fed on a line 14 to a directional coupler 15 which compares the local and remote optical signals. A receiver 16 extracts data by interference between the two signals in the directional coupler 15, and feeds data out at a line 17. A level detector 18 detects the level of the output signal 17 and supplies a feed-back signal to a polarisation controller 19, which controls the birefringent element or elements 11. The birefringent device 11 is adapted to provide a variable rotation on a Poincaré sphere about an axis of rotation which itself may be varied in direction. The control means 19 varies the amount of rotation on the Poincaré sphere produced by the birefringent device, and varies the direction of the axis about which the rotation takes place, so as to achieve the desired polarisation transformation. A preferred form of the birefringent device 11 comprises a waveguide (20) of electro-optic material, and means (22,23) for producing in the electro-optic material an electric field of variable strength and variable orientation whereby required polarisation transformation can take place. Preferably the electro-optic material is lithium niobate.

Abstract: A data limiter (30) in a paging receiver for converting an analog signal to a digital signal, the data limiter (30) having a variable time constant. The data limiter (30) includes an amplifying means (34) and an integrating means (36). The amplifying means (34), being responsive to the analog input signal generated from a receiving means (12) of the paging receiver, generates a reference signal depending upon a variable bias current input to the amplifying means. The integrating means (36), being responsive to the reference signal, generates a comparison signal depending upon a variable gain input. The amplifying means (34) responsive to the comparison signal compares the comparison signal to the input signal for generating a digital output signal. A processing means (56) of the paging receiver generates a first control signal for modifying the variable bias current input and a second control signal for modifying the variable gain input. Additionally, the processing means (56) generates a third control signal being applied to the integrating means (36) for effecting a storage of the comparison signal in the integrating means (36).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the releasable connection of two parts. It has a receiving part (1) possessing a housing (3a). In the housing (3a) is mounted a bolt (5a) having an entry slope (7a). A closing pin (9d) with a displacement part (12a) serves for closing or for engagement with the bolt (5a) and is kept pressed into the closing position by a rubber ring (16). A release part (11a) is mounted slidably in the direction of movement (arrow 57) on the shank of the closing pin (9d). The closing pin (9d) carries a thrust plate (8) at its end facing away from the displacement part (12a). Insofar as pressure is exerted on this thrust plate, there first occurs the closing of the displacement part (12a) with the bolt (5a). When it is pressed further in the direction of movement (arrow 57), the release part (11a) forces the bolt (5a) away via the entry slope (7a) counter to the spring force of the rubber ring (16) and perpendicularly to the direction of movement (57). The bolt (5a) is then clamped on the displacement contour (17) of the release part (11a). It is thus possible to release the connection again by pulling the closing pin (9d) out of the receiving part (1). In another version, the bolt (5k;l) is held on the closing pin (9m;n) of the displacement part (12i;k) on the housing (3n;m). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of improving the landing of a hydraulic elevator car which responds to slowdown and leveling indicia associated with each floor of a building served by the car. The method, which utilizes signals which are already generated relative to the car traveling past slowdown and leveling indicia, provides an optimum deceleration time TOPT for the car to initiate deceleration and arrive at a leveling zone of a target floor, defined by leveling indicia. The method further delays the initiation of deceleration of the car, after the car reaches slowdown indicia for the target floor, by a predetermined time delay Td. The method determines the actual time TACT for the car to travel between slowdown and leveling indicia for the target floor, and then changes Td, if necessary, in a direction which tends to optimize Td, when TACT - Td is not equal to TOPT.
