Abstract: An incrementally adjustable electronic expansion valve for precisely controlling refrigerant flow through the valve is disclosed. Basically, the expansion valve includes a stepper motor, a sleeve member, and an orifice assembly. The sleeve member is incrementally moved over a slot(s) in the orifice assembly by operation of the stepper motor to control refrigerant flow between an inlet and an outlet of an expansion valve. A control system provides electronic digital control signals to the stepper motor to control operation of the motor in response to superheat of refrigerant flowing from an evaporator to a compressor of the refrigeration system. The electronic expansion valve may also include sealing means to substantially prevent refrigerant flow through the valve when the sleeve member is in its fully closed position.

Abstract: To prevent the unauthorised use of a mobile unit in a radio telephone system, during the establishment of a connection between a mobile unit and a mobile switching centre, the subscriber number and the identifier of the mobile unit formed from the subscriber number according to a secret encoding rule are compared with each other and evaluated. To prevent interventions by third parties in the devices, such as return identifier receivers for example, arranged in the mobile unit, the comparison between the subscriber number formed from the identifier by application of the inverse encoding rule and the subscriber number stored in the station identification device is transferred from the mobile unit to the mobile switching centre. If the subscriber number obtained in this way matches the stored subscriber number, connection establishment is continued, otherwise the connection establishment is aborted. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring means and for detecting motion in the vicinity of the apparatus, particularly a non-invasive cardio-­pulmonary activity, is disclosed comprising an electrostatic charge detector (10) for providing an output signal including signals indicative of motion, e.g. cardio-pulmonary activity of a person in the vicinity of the detector. A detection apparatus (Figure 2) is connected to receive the signals and to filter the extraneous noise signals from the signals of interest to provide output signals indicative only of the motion of interest of cardio-pulmonary activity of the person. Breathing signals are applied to a comparator (66) which is tripped if breathing occurs at a rate below a predetermined value. Cardiac signals are applied to a circuit which adjusts the trip level for the breathing rate if the cardiac rate declines to a level suggestive of brady-­cardia without breathing rate increases. The filtering circuit for the signal supplied by the charge detector incorporates a dual integrator (24) operating as a frequency selective charged amplifier which is effective to substan­tially eliminate all signals outside of the range of about 0.1 to 15 Hz.

Abstract: Transducers for measuring the amount of relative displacement between the two scales by means of capacitive coupling between a first scale and a second scale which are used in calipers or the like and which are displaced relatively to each other. 
     Transmitting electrodes consisting of a group of a number of electrodes are provided on the first scale, and the transmitting electrodes are each provided with A.C. signals having different phases. 
     Receiving electrodes are provided on the second scale at positions near the aforesaid transmitting electrodes, and different capacity values appear between both groups of electrodes depending upon the relative displacement positions of the two scales. 
     Consequently, the relative positions of both scales can be found by obtaining the A.C. signals of the receiving electrodes. 
     The receiving electrodes consist of a number of electrodes with an equally spaced pitch, obtained by dividing the transmitting wavelength pitch of the transmitting electrodes by a predetermined integer. As a result, it is possible to obtain a measuring precision equal to a fraction of the number of transmitting electrodes within the aforesaid group of transmitting electrodes of the receiving electrode pitch.

Abstract: A predictive time base control circuit for a waveform sampling system of the type which converts a sequence of analog waveform samples into a sequence of digital quantities for storage in an addressable acquisition memory. The time base circuit generates a sampling control signal which initiates sampling at the end of a time interval of programmable duration following detection of a triggering event in the waveform, and which maintains sampling thereafter at regular intervals. The time base circuit permits the sampling system to operate in an equivalent time mode in which repetitive waveform sections are sampled at progressively skewed sampling intervals with respect to a repetitive triggering event. The sampling control signal is also frequency divided, delayed, and then applied as a write control signal to the sampling system acquisition memory. The time base control circuit includes a memory addressing circuit responsive to the write control signal for incrementing the address of the acquisition memory by an adjustable step size each time data is stored in the memory, thereby facilitating proper ordering of sample data in the memory.
