Title: Integrated electronic circuit comprising an oscillator and passive circuit elements
Inventor: AHLM ROGER
IPC: H03H1/02
Filed: 1998-10-12
Granted: 2006-03-22
Abstract: An electronic circuit with at least one active electronic component (10) and a delay element connected to the component. The delay element comprises an electric conductor (13, 18) which is composed of a conductive material on an insulating layer (14) such that the conductor's capacitive coupling to the surrounding becomes low. The conductor (13, 18) is drawn such that its inductance is minimized. The electronic component (10) and conductor (13, 18) are integrated in an integrated circuit. The delay element can be used in an oscillator coupling or in an electronically controlled antenna. In the oscillator coupling the electronic component (10) comprises an inverter coupling (11) with an input (11) and an output (12). The conductor (13) is provided to connect input (11) with output (12), thus creating an oscillator. The electronically controlled antenna comprises a receiver (17) and a number of antenna elements (16) connected to the receiver (17). Individual antenna elements (16) are connected to the receiver (17) via automatically selectable delay elements (18) such that electric signals from different antenna elements (16) are differentially delayed dependent on the position of the antenna elements in relation to the impinging electromagnetic wave fronts.

Abstract: An improved molten metal feed system is provided for high speed, continuous casting of metals and alloys. The feed system includes a distributor box having an insulative lining which supports an internal flow distributor board. The flow distributor board includes a plurality of openings of various sizes and shapes spaced apart along the width of the board. The presence of the flow distributor board effectively separates the box into lower and upper sections and restricts the flow of liquid metal through the board and thus, forces entering liquid metal to fill the entire width of the distributor box below the flow distributor board. In addition, the liquid metal is stabilized across the width of the distributor box resulting in a balanced temperature gradient. Once the lower section of the distributor box is filled, the metal flows through the openings in the board into the upper section of the distributor box and into the feed tip nozzle. Flow dividers are also provided which are adapted to be positioned along the width of the distributor box. A baffleless feed tip nozzle is coupled to the distributor box. An adjustment mechanism is coupled to the feed tip nozzle which allows adjustment of the size of the feed tip opening.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer les concentrations des constituants d'un mélange de substances à l'aide d'un diffractogramme des rayons X de ce mélange. Pour éviter la difficulté fondamentale de ne pas pouvoir déterminer tout le spectre de puissance de la diffraction, on fait une estimation convenable du spectre de puissance sur la base des diffractions pouvant être observées. Pour déterminer les intensités absolues à partir des intensités relatives, on utilise une estimation du pouvoir dispersif des atomes pris individuellement dans les cellules unitaires des constituants et la puissance spectrique. On détermine les concentrations des constituants dans le mélange en fonction de ces intensités absolues.

Abstract: A strip-shaped or reciprocating knife has at least ore elongated cutting blade (1) provided with a plurality of cutting teeth (2) and intermediate cutting gaps (5), the cutting teeth (2) being provided with additional, finer teeth (8). In order to achieve from beginning to end a smooth and clean cut of the goods to be cut, the additional teeth (8) are produced by providing opposite tooth spaces (9) on both sides of the knife, arranged so close to one another that sharp teeth (12) are formed between the spaces. The additional teeth provided on both sides of the knife form a sharp cutting edge which is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the knife and extends over the cutting teeth (2).

Abstract: A method and nozzle for producing fine powder by atomizing molten material with gas are provided. Molten material, in the form of a film, flows out of a molten material nozzle that has an essentially rectangular discharge cross-sectional area. Thereafter, the molten material, together with an atomizing gas, flows through an initially converging and then diverging gas nozzle that is in the form of a linear Laval nozzle, has an essentially rectangular cross-sectional area, and through which flow is laminar. Laminar accelerated gas flow stabilizes and simultaneously stretches the film of molten material in the converging portion of the Laval nozzle until the film of molten material, after passing the narrowest cross-sectional area of the Laval nozzle, is uniformly atomized over its entire length.

Abstract: A forming fabric has machine direction yarns and cross machine direction yarns interwoven in a repeating pattern of multiple repeating units. The repeating units of the pattern comprise: paper side cross-machine direction yarns forming the paper side of the fabric; machine side cross-machine direction yarns forming the machine side of the fabric; and machine direction yarns interwoven with both the paper side cross machine direction yarns and the machine side cross machine direction yarns. The machine direction yarns comprise first and second sets of machine direction yarns arranged in an alternating pattern. Each of the machine direction yarns of the first and second sets passes above four paper side cross machine direction yarns to form paper side knuckles separated from one another by at least two paper side cross machine direction yarns. Each of the machine direction yarns of the first set passes below four machine side cross machine direction yarns to form first, second, third and fourth machine side knuckles, and each of said machine direction yarns of said second set passes below three machine side cross machine direction yarns to form fifth, sixth and seventh paper side knuckles. In this configuration, the fabric retains a desired "zig-zag" configuration on the machine side, but is less prone to twinning.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an energy-consuming element (1) which is intended for railway vehicles and which is made in the form of a housing comprising a triggering device (malfunction actuator). This invention is characterised in that the triggering device is designed as an axial fold at one end of the housing, wherein the fold line (5) in the circumference direction is designed so that, for the adjacent sides, the amplitude of said fold line (5) extends in the opposite direction. The place and the direction in which the fold line is formed can thus be determined in an appropriate manner. This system can also be used for advantageously reducing the triggering force for forming the first fold so that the structure of the vehicle is submitted to a lesser amount of stress in case of collision. This invention also relates to a method for producing this energy-consuming device from flat surfaces, wherein said method comprises only a few manufacturing operations such as cutting sheet-metal outlines, folding the same and assembling them by welding in order to provide an energy-consuming element (1).

Abstract: Diffuse "dark field" illumination and "bright field" illumination are each provided for a hand-held encoded symbology imager/reader; to be projected therefrom upon symbology disposed on a target (component part, goods, package, etc.). The imager/reader is encased in a housing ergonomically configured to be griped in more then one manner and to thus facilitate holding the imager/reader steady. The symbology to be imaged is targeted by a line that not only spots the symbology, but by extending a length commensurate with that of the symbology, indicates that the symbology is in the field of view of the imager/reader. A CCD, disposed to receive light reflected from the symbology, has its readout controlled so that only selected portions of the CCD need be analyzed for illumination and focusing purposes. To optimize imaging and decoding time, and to optimize use of power, readout from some portions of the CCD is accomplished in relatively rapid time by speeding up the readout of the CCD in some of its active area; while reverting back to a slower readout for data to be analyzed for illumination and focusing control and decoding purposes. In addition, special application of entropy principles facilitate determining the optimum focus and illumination conditions for the imager/reader.
