Patent EP-0667710-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ROSSMERE DAVID LAWRENCE
IPC: G11B27/34
Filed: 1995-02-02
Abstract: A random access audio/video processor includes a main control unit (60) having an analog video back panel (150), an analog audio back panel (152), an analog input/output board (155), an audio processing board (162), a video processing board (158), a video effects board (160), a synchronization board (170), and a system board (166). The video processing board (158) includes a compressor (360) for compressing input video signals, a triple transfer buffer (362) for intermediate storage of digital video, and decompression circuits coupled to each of two triple transfer buffers for decompressing compressed stored video and providing the decompressed video channels to an effects board for the addition of special effects. The audio processing board (162) contains four digital signal processors for audio compression, decompression, and an effects processor. It also contains triple buffers for intermediate storage of digital audio data. The system board (166) contains a main CPU (415), DMA controllers and SCSI interfaces required to perform high speed audio-video data transfer to/from disk. The triple transfer buffers include a present buffer, a past buffer and a future buffer, which ensure that there is sufficient video and audio material in the present buffers to minimize any discontinuities in either the audio or the video channel outputs. An E to C mode allows the user to view video which has been compressed and decompressed to verify that no unwanted system artifacts exist or are being created by the compression process. The viewing of the compressed and decompressed material is done in real-time while the material is being compressed and stored. Under software control, a user may bypass the compression circuit and capture uncompressed still frames directly in the triple transfer buffer, and store the uncompressed still frames, thereby permitting the independent display of still and motion video in each respective output channel.

Abstract: A sampling cylinder (3) is attached to a process piping (2) through which a slurry flows. A front piston (9) and a rear piston (10) which slide within the sampling cylinder 3 are driven via a driving rod (12) by a fluid pressure cylinder (11). These two pistons (9,10) are allowed to slide to collect the slurry into a sampling space (30) defined between the pistons (9,10). The front piston (9) is brought closer to the rear piston (10) to reduce the volume of the sampling space (30). Thus, only the filtrate in the slurry is fed through a filter (5) into a filtrate collecting tank (6), where pH etc. of the filtrate is measured by a sensor (8). Subsequently, the front piston (9) is brought apart from the rear piston (10) to increase the volume of the sampling space (30). Thus, the filtrate is returned into the sampling space (30) back-washing the filter (5). Then, the slurry in the sampling space (30) is returned to the process piping (2).

Abstract: Line voltage and line current signals are sensed (110,120) on a power line having at least one conducting path (220 A-C). The sensed line voltages and line currents are converted (320) into a digital signal. A phase-to-neutral voltage signal and phase current signal are computed (330) from the digital signal to thereby define a phase of the power line. An interval of orthogonality is determined from the sensed voltage and current signals, coinciding with passage of an integral number of cycles of a fundamental frequency reference signal which is computed from the computed phase-to-neutral voltage signal. A vector metering quantity is computed for the determined interval of orthogonality from the computed phase-to-neutral voltage signal and the computed phase current signal. The vector metering quantities to be computed may be identified and computed based upon an associated detent. The vector metering quantity is also computed based on an identified circuit topology.

Abstract: Ce système de détection d'intrusions comprend une pluralité de capteurs (2A...2X) et une pluralité correspondante de récepteurs (3A...3X). Chaque récepteur reçoit, par l'intermédiaire de son capteur associé, des signaux radioélectriques faisant l'objet de multiples transmissions à des fréquences différentes dans un spectre de fréquences prédéterminé. Le récepteur détecte les signaux radioélectriques et calcule, pour chaque intervalle d'une pluralité d'intervalles de temps successifs, et pour chacune desdites fréquences de transmission, une mesure d'amplitude de signal sur ledit intervalle; compare cette mesure d'amplitude de signal avec au moins une valeur seuil, et, si l'amplitude dépasse la valeur seuil sur une durée prédéterminée, émet un signal indiquant un état d'alarme potentielle. Un processeur (4) compare les signaux d'alarme potentielle provenant d'une pluralité de capteurs et détermine qu'une intrusion a eu lieu si le signal d'alarme potentielle pour un poste particulier ne coïncide pas avec un signal d'alarme potentielle pour un capteur adjacent. Chaque récepteur peut émettre un signal d'alarme indiquant qu'une intrusion a eu lieu lorsque des signaux d'alarme potentielle sont émis simultanément pour un nombre de fréquences supérieur à un nombre préétabli d'une multiplicité de fréquences de transmission.

Date Mar. 27, 1997The present invention relates to a method for making contact with a multipole female strip connector for plug connections with coaxial connecting cables. In order to simplify the method and to save tools, a multi-row female strip connector is split into plastic disks, one side of the disk having insulation-piercing terminals which are arranged one behind the other and are connected to contact springs, and the other side having correspondingly formed, overmolded pressure pieces. The disks are held spaced apart in a pressing tool by means of corresponding press-in pins which have a force fit. Coaxial connecting cables, which are cut to length and at whose free ends the outer insulation and the shield mesh have been removed over a predetermined length, are pushed into these disks, which are preassembled spaced apart. When the disks are pressed together, the pressure pieces press the connecting wires into the insulation-piercing terminal.

Abstract: A voltage converting circuit of the charge pump step-up type
includes a first circuit means for charging each of first and second
capacitors with the voltage of a voltage source at a first timing. A second
circuit operates to serially connect the charged first capacitor between a
positive electrode of the voltage source and a positive voltage output
terminal at a second timing so that a positive voltage which is a double of
the voltage source voltage, is supplied from positive voltage output
terminal. A third circuit operates to the charged first and second
capacitors in series between a ground terminal and a negative voltage
output terminal at a third timing so that a negative voltage which is a
double of the voltage source voltage, is supplied from the negative voltage
output terminal. Since the positive voltage and the negative voltage are
generated independently of each other, a voltage variation on one of the
positive and negative voltage output terminals caused by an external load
causes no voltage variation on the other of the positive and negative
voltage output terminals.

Abstract: A focus electrode (4) is constituted by first type of
focus electrode groups (43, 45) to which a first focus
voltage is applied, and second type of focus electrode
groups (44, 46) to which a second focus voltage is applied.
Between the first type of focus electrode groups
and the second type of focus electrode groups are formed
a lens (43, 44; 45 46) for correcting the field curvature
and an electrostatic quadruple lens (44, 45). The center
axes of the outer electron beam passage holes in the
first type of focus electrode forming the lens for correcting
the field curvature are deviated on a horizontal
plane from the center axes of the outer electron beam
passage holes in the second type of focus electrode. The
electrostatic quadruple lens produces dissimilar intensities
for the outer electron beams and for the center
electron beam. Therefore, the outer electron beam passage
holes work to deflect the outer electron beams toward the
center electron beam with an increase in the deflecting
amount of the electron beams, and a favorable resolution
is obtained on the whole screen of the cathode-ray tube.

Abstract: A variable fluid displacement apparatus includes a plate which is located in a
crank chamber and is tiltably connected to a drive shaft so as to vary the variable slant angle
responsive to a pressure differential between the crank chamber and a suction chamber. A
first communication path communicates the crank chamber with a discharge chamber to
control pressure within the crank chamber. A first valve device opens and closes a first
opening area in the first communication path to adjust the pressure level. A second valve
device closes a second communication path, which communicates the crank chamber with the
suction chamber. A second opening area in the second communication path is closed when
a pressure difference between the crank chamber and the suction chamber falls below a
predetermined value. Thus, a variable displacement compressor obtains a desired
compression capacity after the variable displacement compressor commences operation.
