Abstract: An elongated fluid distributing hose (10) for use in an irrigation system for plants, vegetables and the like. The hose incorporates a particular arrangement of a main supply channel (12) for gross water movement, and a water distributing network for fine water movement. Water pressure reduction takes place in the water distributing network at the point of the passing of the water from the high pressure main supply channel through a series of first fluid-passing openings or inlet stations (36) through one or more smaller fluid-restricting passages (18,19,20). In certain embodiments , a straucture is provided to perform a pressure regulating function in each of the smaller passages . In one embodiment, pressure reduction between an inlet and an outlet is by way of a serpentine fluid-restricting path. A novel method and machine are employed to manufacture the various hoses embodying the teachings of the subject invention.

Abstract: A received and demodulated multi-level signal (32) is corrected for D.C. offset by means of a feedback loop (34) which applies a correction signal (38) to the multi-level signal (32). Initial coarse correction is provided by feeding the corrected signal (42) into the feedback loop where a low pass filter (36) averages the corrected signal over time and detects departure from zero of this time-averaged signal. After initial coarse correction, finer correction of D.C. offset is provided in a data-aided mode in which detected data values (46) are fed into the feedback loop (34). The method achieves D.C. offset correction without the need to know anything about the data pattern of the received signal (32).

Abstract: A thermochemical scarfing method and apparatus are disclosed which allows a greater diagonal standoff distance from the metal workpiece during preheating. The method includes preheating the end of the metal workpiece, and then scarfing the workpiece by directing a scarfing oxygen stream onto the workpiece at an acute angle and while moving the workpiece past the oxygen outlet port. The preheating step includes generating a high speed stream of oxidizing gas and a concentric stream of fuel gas coaxially about the central stream, so that the momentum of the central stream is maintained. As a result, the effective flame heating distance may be extended, and the manifold and head assembly which supports the preheating gas nozzles may be moved back from the workpiece a significant standoff distance so as to avoid damage from dislodged molten metal slag.

Abstract: An actuator and programmable amplifier is operative for use with an expanding plug gage head operated by an axially movable plunger having a tapered operating end and an opposite cross head end. The cross head end of the plunger is releasably received and secured through a slot in a retracting lever which is pivotably mounted in the actuator/amplifier housing. A compression spring normally urges the plunger to a fully extended position within the gage head. The retracting lever is actuatable for withdrawing the plunger from the gage head. The actuator/amplifier device includes a transducer having a core which is coupled to the crosshead end of the plunger. The transducer is operative for measuring an axial position of the plunger within the gage head. The programmable amplifier includes a memory for storing a plurality of sets of configuration data for a plurality of different gage heads. Each of the sets of configuration data includes a predetermined measuring dimension of the gage head, and a predetermined amplification factor of the tapered operating end of the plunger of the gage head. The amplifier further includes a key pad for inputting configuration data to the memory and for selecting one of the sets of configuration data from the memory. A central processor is programmed to convert the sensed axial position of the plunger to a measured dimension according to the selected set of configuration data. The measured dimension is output to a digital liquid crystal display.

Abstract: A silicide process using a pre-anneal amorphization implant prior to silicide anneal. A layer of titanium is deposited and reacted to form titanium silicide (32) and titanium nitride. The titanium nitride is removed and a pre-anneal amorphization implant is performed to enable increased transformation of the silicide (32) from a higher resistivity phase to a lower resistivity phase. A heavy dopant species (40) is used for the pre-anneal amorphization implant such as arsenic, antimony, or germanium. After the implant, the silicide anneal is performed to accomplish the transformation. An advantage of the invention is providing a silicide process having reduced silicide sheet resistance for narrow polysilicon lines.

Abstract: When an audio stream signal is transmitted, the bit stream information for determining the surround mode and special-use mode, including karaoke use, is sensed from the signal at a mode sensor (163). After the surround mode has been sensed, the audio data is converted by a decoder into a front left, front center, and front right main audio signals and a back left and back right surround audio signals in the surround mode, which are converted into analog signals and outputted to the corresponding speakers (8L, 8C, 8R, 8LS, 8RS). When the special-use mode has been sensed, by using the central main audio signal of the front left, front center, and front right main audio signals and back left and back right surround audio signals converted at the decoder, a normally used first-type accompanying sound selectively made unused, for example, guide melody, is generated. In addition, by using the back left and back right surround audio signals, a normally unused second-type accompanying sound selectively used, for example, vocals, is generated. The first- and second-type accompanying sounds, together with the front left and front right main audio signals, are reproduced selectively. Consequently, a system that transmits surround sound using a plurality of channels can maintain compatibility with a surround system easily, when the plurality of channels are applied to special use, such as karaoke, not being restricted to surround use.
