Title: Self-cleaning water passageways on diaphragm insert
Inventor: BERKLEY PAUL CHARLES
IPC: F16K31/385
Filed: 2019-12-05
Abstract: A valve (100) is disclosed a valving member positioned in an internal valving cavity and operable to control a flow of water therethrough. The valving member includes a diaphragm (110) and an insert (108). A passageway (120, 122) through the diaphragm communicates with a bleed slot (126, 128), preferably a tapered bleed slot, and a scallop of the insert. The scallop cooperates with the diaphragm to form a bleed holes (130, 132) when the valving member is in a closed position. The diaphragm and the insert at least partially separate when the valving member is opened to expose the bleed slot and scallop. The diaphragm rolls up to contact the insert when the valving member is closed to create a wiping action to flush any trapped debris from the bleed slot.

Abstract: A collective wiring system for an automobile provides a 
central control unit (CCU) which communicates with a 
plurality of terminal control units (LCU) each connected to 
one or more input or output devices (93, 94, 95, 96), such as 
switches, sensors, motors and the like. The control over 
output devices in response to the status of input devices is 
performed by the central control unit (CCU) on the basis of 
tables of data stored in memory (102, 103). A scan table 
(SCNTBL) controls the order in which data communications 
are made to the terminal control units (LCU) to obtain their 
status and provide them with control commands. A monitor 
table (STATTBL) stores the current status of the terminal 
control units (LCU) and a control table (CNTLTB) stores the 
control data for the terminal control units (LCU). A connec­
tion table (CCTBL) stores the relationship between the 
terminal control unit (LCU) for an input device and the 
terminal control unit (LCU) for the output device to be 
controlled thereby. Thus, connection control between input 
and output devices is effected by software.

parts by wt of a radical initiatior and optionally up to 
10 wt % of another radical polymerisable monomer as 
viscosity controller (e.g. styrene) is poured into a mold 
(formed by a ring on a glass plate), and polymerised at 
10-200°C for not more than 2 hours under heating, light 
or electron beam irradiation, until the glass transition 
temperature (Tg) is 10 to 100°C, and the transparent 
plastics disc formed is removed from the mold without 
breakage.  
     The substrate is then post-cured on a flat surface 
by heating or UV or electron beam irradiation until its 
Tg is 150°C, and preferably further post-cured until its 
Tg is 200°C, to remove residual strain and double bonds.  
     A recording layer for an optical or magneto-optical 
disc is formed on the substrate; a higher post-curing 
temperature reduces the number of pinholes in the layer.

Title: Digital signal processor
IPC: H04Q3/42
Filed: 1986-08-14
Abstract: An all-digital signal processor IDSP) is disclosed which performs pulse code modulation (PCM) coding and decoding (CODEC) filter operations for both received and transmitted signals, among other functions. A user can access various programmable registers via the microprocessor to specify parameters used in the execution of programs by the DSP. Two 19-bit wide bidirectional data busses are provided for time-division multiplexed communication between various elements, which include a random access memory (RAM), an arithmetic-logic unit (ALU) and an interface to a receive-side analog-to-digital (A/D) converter and a transmit-side digital-to-analog (DA) converter. A programmed logic array (PLA) executes microcode which controls the processing of signals by the ALU section. A variety of other operations can be performed under control of the PLA such as generation of dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF) signals commonly used in telecommunications. The architecture of the DSP provides a number of user-accessible registers for the storage of parameters and coefficients used in the generation of the DTMF signals, in the CODEC filtering, and in the compression and expansion of signals. The design of the general-purpose DSP is readily expandible to accommodate additional circuit elements and/or more signals to be processed in parallel.
