Abstract: An apparatus and method changes the direction of motion of flat articles being conveyed along a first path to a second path. The apparatus comprises a deck (12) mounted on a frame. The deck has a first side for receiving an article from a first direction and a second side for conveying the article in a second direction which forms an acute angle equal to or less than forty-five degrees (45°) with the first direction. There is means (20, 48) for conveying the article over the deck in the second direction. The conveying structure engages a leading edge of the article only after the article has been disengaged by a conveying arrangement in the first direction. There is a registration wall (80) positioned downstream from the second direction conveying structure adjacent a third side of the deck. The registration wall extends in a third direction whereby the registration wall is at a right angle to the first direction, wherein the leading edge of the article is driven against the registration wall after the article has been disengaged by the second direction conveying structure. Conveying means (82) move the article in the third direction after the article has encountered the registration wall.

Abstract: Un procédé et un dispositif permettent de renouveler le lubrifiant, par exemple dans une boîte de vitesses. Pour assurer le fonctionnement et la disponibilité irréprochables d'une boîte de vitesses, il est nécessaire de renouveler régulièrement le lubrifiant dans le cadre d'opérations d'entretien. Généralement, le renouvellement se fait manuellement, c'est-à-dire, le lubrifiant contenu dans l'organe (1) est évacué puis un nouveau lubrifiant non usagé est introduit. Ce processus prend beaucoup de temps et de main d'oeuvre. Même dans le cas d'un entretien exécuté soigneusement et consciencieusement, des erreurs ne sont pas exclues. Afin d'éliminer ces inconvénients, un procédé et un dispositif permettent de remplacer le lubrifiant usagé par du lubrifiant neuf en étapes reproductibles et faisant l'objet d'un procès-verbal de manière automatique, sans erreurs, dans un temps réduit et avec peu de main d'oeuvre. A cet effet, le lubrifiant est évacué de l'organe (1) par une pompe et refoulé dans un réservoir (6). Puis un distributeur (10) est commuté et le lubrifiant non usagé contenu dans un récipient (7) est pompé et ramené à l'organe (1). Le procédé et le mode de fonctionnement du dispositif peuvent être commandés ou contrôlés par une unité de commande (14).

Abstract: According to the present invention, there is provided a semiconductor synapse circuit comprising a semiconductor having an electrically charged carrier gas which is provided with a plurality of electrically isolated input channels providing narrowed areas 21 through 24 respectively for restricting the emitting direction of the electrically charged carriers from emitter electrodes 11 through 14 as the exit, gate electrodes 31 through 34 for applying an electrostatic potential for changing the traveling direction of the carriers emitted from the input channels, a single narrowed area 41 positioned opposed to the exits 21 through 24 of the input channels for passing through only the carriers traveling in the restricted direction and an acceptor electrode 40 for collecting the carriers which have passed through the single narrowed area. 
     Since it utilizes the ballistic performance of the carriers, as compared with the conventionally proposed circuit, a synapse circuit whose area is greatly reduced and whose operating speed is improved can be realized. Thus, it becomes possible to further improve the degree of integration and reduce the delay time at the line.

Abstract: The measuring devices hitherto used to measure torques on armatures measure the force to be transmitted with the aid of weighing cells fitted with strain gauges. Their construction and the resulting overall size make these measuring devices unsuitable to be left permanently between the armature and the electric motor and hence these measuring devices can only be used for periodic measurements. The intention is therefore to find a permanently installed device which permits continuous strain measurement. For this purpose, the housing (2) of the actuator (3) and the housing (4) of the armature (5) are arranged in series, passed through by the armature spindle (20), which performs a stroke motion, and connected directly to one another by a screw fastener (30). One component of the actuator (3) or of the armature (5) is designed as a monitoring torsion element. <IMAGE>
