Abstract: The steam cooling circuit for a gas turbine includes a bore tube assembly (48) supplying steam to circumferentially spaced radial tubes (54) coupled to supply elbows (206) for transitioning the radial steam flow in an axial direction along steam supply tubes (56) adjacent the rim of the rotor. The supply tubes supply steam to circumferentially spaced manifold segments (120) located on the aft side of the 1-2 spacer for supplying steam to the buckets (22, 24) of the first and second stages. Spent return steam from these buckets flows to a plurality of circumferentially spaced return manifold segments disposed on the forward face of the 1-2 spacer. Crossover tubes (146) couple the steam supply from the steam supply manifold segments through the 1-2 spacer to the buckets (22) of the first stage. Crossover tubes (196) through the 1-2 spacer also return steam from the buckets of the second stage to the return manifold segments. Axially extending return tubes (58) convey spent cooling steam from the return manifold segments to radial tubes (80) via return elbows (216). <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating an automatic receive mode for
infrared devices is presented. In accordance with the invention, a battery-powered
electronic appliance (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) comprises a communications
interface (50) including receive mode circuitry (55) and a battery (5) that
supplies power to the receive mode circuitry (55) when the receive mode
circuitry (55) is enabled. Upon power up, the communication interface (50) is
initialized and the receive mode circuitry (55) enabled to operate in a receive
mode for a predetermined amount of time. A timer (25) times the
predetermined amount of time. If the timer expires(25), the receive mode
circuitry (55) is disabled to remove power from the receive mode circuitry (55),
thereby conserving battery power in the device. Preferably, if the
predetermined enable time expires while the receive mode circuitry (55) is
currently receiving input, the predetermined enable time is extended by an
extension time and the timer (25) restarted, with this process repeating until the
receive mode circuitry is no longer receiving input. In a preferred embodiment,
the receive mode circuitry (55) is re-enabled periodically after a predetermined
disable time, and the timing process repeated, causing the receive mode
circuitry (55) to be disabled again if data is not received within the
predetermined enable time.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to the processing of
measured data. Especially the invention applies to the
binning procedure of data which is measured with a CCD
(Charge-Coupled Device) sensor unit. The invention is
preferably used in photometrics for measuring radiation
from samples on a well plate. It is the objective of the
present invention to create a solution, in which a good
signal-to-noise value is achieved, and the measuring results
of the neighbouring sample wells can still be well
separated. This objective is achieved in photometrics
application by selecting the binning factor on the basis of
position and size of sample wells on a well plate (530,
550). With the present invention it is possible to achieve a
maximal signal-to-noise ratio, because all pixels within the
image area of one sample are accumulated. However, since
the pixels between the sample images are not accumulated
with the pixels within the sample images (526, 546), the
problem of interference between samples can be avoided.

The probe includes an internal oscillator (14), an adjustable receiver circuit (16), a product detector (18), and a pair of gain amplifiers (40, 42). The oscillator generates a single controlled frequency output. The receiver circuit receives the frequency and creates a DC voltage shift that nulls the capacitance bridge.

Abstract: A bit rate agile recovery circuit that performs instant lock-on clock
recovery without glitches has a tunable voltage controlled oscillator providing
a pair of quadrature phase clock signals. The quadrature phase clock
signals are sampled by transitions in an input digital data signal to generate a
phase code. The phase code and quadrature phase clock signals are input
to a clock phase select circuit that selects one of four clock phases as the
recovered clock. The clock phase select circuit has a cascade of transistor
circuits and a single current source so that, if either bit of the phase code is
metastable, two adjacent clock phases are partially selected with a total sum
of one. The change from one clock phase to the next occurs when both clock
phases are the same so no glitches occur.

Abstract: In the present invention, a protective coating is preferably formed as a plurality of dots
upon a surface to be protected. The dots have a selected size, cover a selected amount of the
underlying surface, and are preferably isolated from one another by uncoated surfaces. This
coating not only provides the coated substrate or object (and the cured coating itself) with
significantly increased flexibility and formability, but also with a wide range of possible surface
finishes and textures. Due to the increased coating flexibility and formability, the coated
substrate or object can be partially or even fully cured prior to forming operations such as
injection molding or film shaping. The substrate or object is therefore less susceptible to damage
from handling and from machine operations. One highly preferred coating embodiment is
produced with ink having a controllable stipple amount for a significantly increased range of
possible coating finishes and textures.
