Patent EP-0602611-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JEANNET ROLAND
IPC: A46B5/00
Filed: 1993-12-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a toothbrush (10), the brushneck (12) of which, connected to an exchangeable brushhead, is deflectably held, in a reversible, resilient manner, on a hollow handle (14) by a swivel joint (18) surrounded by a sealing element (16). The brushneck (12) is provided at its coupling end (20) facing the handle (14) with an articulated head (22). The handle exhibits at its coupling end (24) facing the brushneck (12) an articulated fork (26), between whose fork legs (28, 30) an articulated head (22) of the brushneck (12) is fitted-in and connected by a swivel axle (32). The sealing element (16) consists of a pressure-elastic material. The articulated fork (26) is itself of tension-elastic configuration, so that the sealing element (16) is held by the articulated fork (26) under elastic pre-tension between the mutually opposite coupling ends (20, 24) of the handle (14) and of the brushneck (12). The toothbrush can be economically manufactured using a least possible number of single parts and enables a deflection movement, which is elastically damped by the sealing element and by the elastically configured articulated fork, which deflection movement is limited by the articulated head.

Abstract: This invention relates to the electronic storage and retrieval of sequences of digital video images, such as occur in digital motion video and frame animation computer applications. The method of the invention is a differential frame compression method in which a sequence of a plurality of video images each to be displayed in a predetermined array of pixels arranged in a succession of lines are provided; a first digital signal which represents a first video image in the sequence to be displayed is derived to have a bit-mask data portion defining an array of pixels and a pixel data portion defining pixel values for pixels within the bit-mask array and to be displayed; a second digital signal which represents a second video image in the sequence to be displayed and which is a successor to the first image is derived similarly to the first; the first and second digital signals are compared to distinguish pixel data which is unchanged in the succession from the first video image to the second video image; the second digital signal is compressed by deriving the bit-mask data portion thereof to represent which pixels are changed in the succession from the first video image to the second video image and by deriving the pixel data portion thereof to represent only those pixels which are represented in the bit-mask portion as being changed; and the series of digital signals are stored.

Abstract: An active mixer employs a single-ended-to-differential voltage-to-current conversion circuit (Q1-Q4) to convert an input voltage signal (V in ) to first and second pairs of complementary conversion current signals, with the two pairs of complementary current signals matched with each other. An output current steering circuit (Q11-Q14) responds to at least one of the pairs of complementary conversion current signals and to a local oscillator signal (LO, LO) to produce a pair of complementary output signals (V o ,  V     o   ) that represent the input voltage signals modulated by the local oscillator signal. In the preferred embodiment two conversion circuits (Q1-Q4, Q1'-Q4') are used to produce the two pairs of complementary conversion current signals, which are differentially linear with respect to the input signal. The conversion current signals from one pair (14, 15) are combined with complementary conversion current signals from the other pair (16, 17) to yield a pair of complementary output signals (V o ,  V     o   ) that are differentially linear with respect to the input signal ; each output signal by itself is single-endedly linear with respect to either the input signal or its complement.

Abstract: A high pressure condenser (20) comprising a plurality of transversely spaced flattened tubes (21) having their ends extending into headers (23) at each end to the tubes and a plurality of undulating fins (22) extending between adjacent tubes. The tubes are made by utilizing flat strip stock that is coated on both surfaces with a coating that will fuse and bond on the application of heat and has a plurality of longitudinally and transversely spaced deformed portions or projections (25). The flat strip stock is subjected to the steps of first rolling the opposite edges of the strip into a curved configuration having a radius corresponding to the radius of curvature desired on the rounded longitudinally welded edge of the tube, then progressively rolling the central portion of the strip into the rounded configuration desired along the other longitudinal edge of the tube (21) while utilizing the rounded free edge portions and the center bend to accurately center the strip as it advances through the successive forming rolls and, thereafter heating the spaced free edges of the rolled strip to a temperature at which they are adapted to be fused together and directing them through a guide located upstream from and directly adjacent a pair of squeeze rolls for effecting a weld seam therebetween, the guide being designed to engage each free edge portion of the strip on laterally opposite sides thereof. The projections (25) in the strip are brought into engagement before the free edges of the rolled strip are fused together. When the tubes (21) are assembled with the fins to the headers (23), the entire assembly is subjected to heat to cause the coating on the surfaces of the tubes to bond the projections to one another and to bond the exterior of the tubes to the slots in the headers (23) through which the ends of the tubes extend.

Abstract: A figure-8 loop laser (11) having a controllable phase shifter (37) in a Sagnac loop (15) (non-linear amplifying loop mirror). In one embodiment, the controllable phase shifter, which is constructed from a half-wave plate and pair of Faraday optical rotators (55,57) provides a switchable non-reciprocal 180-degree phase shifter that allows the birefringence of the fiber loop to be adjusted during continuous wave operation. The phase shifter (37) is activated during continuous wave operation to find a minimum threshold and then is turned off, placing the laser in optimum state for mode locking. In another embodiment, a time varying phase modulator is used as the controllable phase shifter, which provides a means of both starting and controlling optical pulses.

Abstract: A glass-cloth epoxy sheet is manufactured by impregnating a varnish, which is prepared by dissolving a curing epoxy resin composition into a solvent, into glass cloth and curing the varnish. If a thickness X of the glass-cloth epoxy sheet ranges from 20 to 75 µm, the content of the glass cloth is set within the range of 0.4X + 25 (wt%) to 70 (wt%). If the thickness X of the epoxy sheet ranges between 75 and 200 µm, the content of the glass cloth is set at 55 (wt%) to 70 (wt%). With this content of the glass cloth, a glass-cloth epoxy sheet with good punching characteristics can be obtained. In a method of manufacturing a glass-cloth epoxy sheet excellent in smoothness, fuzz properties, and flexibility, glass cloth is pulled up vertically from an impregnating tank containing a varnish. The varnish is kept out of contact with anything while being cured.

Abstract: A data communication system, such as a local area network, is provided with a capability of transmitting isochronous data. The system conveys both isochronous data and non-isochronous data by time-multiplexing the data into a recurring frame structure on a four-bit nibble basis. The arriving data is de-multiplexed at the hub into separate channels for handling the separate streams by appropriate hardware. 
     A delay circuit enables the hub to control frame alignment to compensate for cycle delays caused by the various node-hub cable lengths.
