Abstract: The invention relates to a magnetic-tape cassette apparatus with a drive for playing back magnetic-tape cassettes, which has a cassette loading mechanism comprising a cassette compartment (15) which receives the magnetic-tape cassette and is guided by laterally protruding bolts (16) in fixed vertical guides (6) for lowering into a playing position and raising into an ejecting position, the bolts (16) additionally passing through vertically inclined slits (14) of a slide (9), the guides (6) extending only vertically up and down for lowering and raising the cassette compartment (15). The drawing-in and ejecting movement of the magnetic-tape cassette is assumed by a cassette carrier (17), which can be moved by an actuating lever (21) between an ejecting position and a drawing-in position, the displacing movement of the slide (9) at the same time causing the actuating lever (21), which is pivotally coupled to the slide, to move for drawing in and ejecting the cassette.

IPC: B60T8/1761
Filed: 1990-04-18
Abstract: A process for maximizing the instruction processing efficiency of a digital computer for the purpose of calculating rotational speed wherein the calculation of speed is based upon speed signals generated by a tachometer. By (1) counting the quantity of the speed signals received during a fixed sampling period, and (2) recording the occurrence time of these speed signals only as necessary for the calculation of rotational speed, the invention improves over known methods in that it does not record the occurrence time of all speed signals, but rather records the occurrence time of only those speed signals necessary for the calculation. The invention accomplishes this by a) anticipating when the speed signals necessary for the speed calculation will be generated (and subsequently received by the digital computer) and b) recording the occurrence times only when it is anticipated that these necessary edges will be received by the digital computer.

Abstract: The present invention utilizes bypass6circuitry to shorten the cycle time of a cache memory (300) by shortening the time required to perform a write through read operation (WTR). The bypass circuitry senses when a WTR operation will occur by comparing the encoded read and write addresses to determine when the encoded addresses are equal. When the encoded addresses are equal, a WTR operation is requested and the bypass circuitry sends the data to be written into memory to both the write address location and the cache output buffer. The bypass circuitry does not wait to access the data from the memory cells through the read decode, rather, it directly sends the data to the output buffer. The bypass circuitry provides a parallel read and write operations instead of serial operations during a WTR, thereby shortening the machine cycle time. The bypass circuitry also prevents glitches from being sent to the output when the WTR operation is complete by accessing the memory cells through the read decode even though the cells are disconnected from the output buffer during the WTR operation. The cycle time is shortened by making the longest operation of the memory shorter.

Abstract: An acceleration sensor comprises a housing having a magnetically permeable element, such as a steel washer, secured thereto proximate with an end of a cylindrical passage formed therein; a magnetic sensing mass in the passage which is displaced in response to acceleration of the housing from an initial position within the passage proximate the steel washer to a second position within the passage when such acceleration overcomes the magnetic bias of the sensing mass towards the steel washer; 
and a pair of beam contacts projecting from the housing into the passage so as to be bridged by the sensing mass when the sensing mass is displaced to the second position within the passage. The accelerometer further comprises a pair of oppositely-wound electrical coils encompassing the passage proximate the initial position and the second position of the sensing mass therein, respectively. Upon the delivery of a direct current to the coils, the sensing mass is magnetically biased to the second position within the passage, whereby the beam contacts are bridged by the sensing mass to confirm the operability of the sensor.

Abstract: This invention is a new optical packaging and interconnection technology which is particularly effective in not only addressing the problem of attaching fiber pigtails to glass waveguide silicon devices, but also in isolating these waveguide devices from the deleterious effects of their external environment. A silica coverplate (310) is disposed over the device, including a number of waveguides consisting of cores (202) and cladding (203) forming part of the device. A layer (300) of epoxy is interposed between the coverplate and the waveguides. The refractive index of the epoxy (300) is less than or equal to that of the cladding (203). Thus, the epoxy forms an effective extension of the cladding and helps to confine optical radiation below the coverplate (310).

Abstract: A process for producing a silicone elastomeric base consists essentially of mixing treated fume silica and hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane oligomer, polymerizing with sulfonic acid or quaternary ammonium carboxylate catalyst while controlling the atmosphere in the mixer to a controlled partial pressure of water vapor to control the molecular weight of the polymer produced, then terminating the catalyst, to give a silicone elastomeric base of hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane having fume silica reinforcement. The base can be further combined with a moisture activated crosslinking system to give a moisture activated silicone sealant. The thixotropy of the above sealant can be controlled through the post addition of small amounts of a thixotropic promoter, such as untreated fume silica.
