Inventor: KEMPF BURKHARD
IPC: G01R31/00

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for testing a fitting (2a) driven by a solenoid (1a), which has a closing part (4a). It also relates to a device for testing such a fitting (2a). It is provided that during a switching process of the fitting (2a), the value of the current intensity (It) in the solenoid (1a) is recorded as operating current intensity (IA) at the time when the locking part (4a) starts to move. From this recorded operating current intensity (IA), the force acting due to the magnet (1a) on the locking part (4a) at the time when it starts to move is determined as operating force (KA). The force (KA) is compared with a setpoint and a signal is output when there is a deviation. The calibrating function (KF) is determined on a fitting (2b) of the same type in which the locking part (4b) is latched. The device for testing the fitting (2a) is distinguished by the fact that a current intensity meter (6a) in the circuit of the solenoid (1a) is connected to a computer (9) which is also connected to a memory (10) for a calibrating function (KF). The computer (9) is followed by a setpoint comparison section (11) and, for example, a signal generator (12). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a triaxial laser gyroscope comprising three ring lasers (18, 20, 22) and dither means (36, 40) for generating vibrating movements of the ring lasers, the dither means (36, 40) are set up for generating a vibrating movement about a single dither axis (58). The three ring lasers (18, 20, 22) are angularly offset by 120 DEG  with respect to one another about the dither axis (58). The input axes of the ring lasers (18, 20, 22) form equal acute angles with the dither axis (58). The ring lasers (18, 20, 22) are mounted on a dome-like carrier (10). The carrier (10) can be excited into vibrating movements about the dither axis (58) by dither modules (36, 40). The dither modules (36, 40) each exhibit an outer ring (44, 46) and an inner ring (34, 38) concentric thereto, which inner ring is connected to the outer ring (44, 46) by means of spoke-like radial springs (47, 48, 50), and dither drives (52, 54, 56) by means of which a rotating vibratory movement of the inner ring (34, 38) can be generated with respect to the outer ring (44, 46). The inner ring (34) of one dither module (36) is connected to the closed end of the dome-like carrier (10). The inner ring (38) of the other dither module (40) is connected to the edge of the dome-like carrier (10). The moving part formed by the dither modules (36, 38) and the ring laser arrangement with carrier (10) and ring lasers (18, 20, 22) is held in a starting position by means of stops (90, 92, 94). The stops (90, 92, 94) are permanently deformed under the influence of a high acceleration in the direction of the dither axis (58) and the elastic return vibration so that the dither modules (36, 40) can then freely vibrate with the ring laser arrangement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In accordance with the invention, the distorted DTMF signal is regenerated. For this purpose, a regenerator is used which can be connected to the speech decoding system or can be integrated in this system. The DTMF regenerator corrects the distorted DTMF signals to form a standard DTMF signal shape. So that the device which contains the speech decoding system can be connected to terminals capable of standard DTMF, such as, for example, answering machines and the like, the regenerator contains a detector which detects the DTMF signal. The detector comprises a high-pass and a low-pass filter in order to separate the DTMF frequency groups, and a processing unit in which characteristics of the decoded signal such as autocorrelation and high-and low-band energy are determined and in accordance with these values a DTMF signal occurring is verified and a column and row tone are calculated and verified and from these tones a numerical or character value is formed and verified and transferred to the generator. In this generator, the delay occurring during the detection is corrected and a standard DTMF signal is generated as output signal in accordance with the verified numerical or character value having the correct length. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a gradation corrector used in a television receiver, a clipping circuit (51) is connected to an output of a histogram memory (2) and a clipping level of the clipping circuit (51) is changed in accordance with an output of an S/N detecting circuit (50). Thereby, when the minimum value is detected, it is possible to prevent a large variation of the value to be detected which may be caused from noise or the like. Also, a circuit (52) for detecting a change in video scene and a recursive filter circuit composed of an adder (53) and a xK circuit (54) (and a two-input/one-output selector circuit (55)) are provided on the output side of a clipping circuit (51) and the coefficient value K of the xK circuit (54) (or the selector circuit (55) is controlled in accordance with an output of the video scene change detecting circuit (52). Thereby, it is possible to make a smooth gradation correction which is not affected by noises or the like (or to make a gradation correction with rapid response which follows a change in video scene).

Abstract: A pick-up device for optical recording and playback includes two linear actuators coupled to an optical module and lying in a plane normal to the surface of an optical recording medium. The actuators are obliquely inclined to the optical axis of the optical module. Proportional differential actuation of the linear actuators moves the optical module bi-axially, i.e., normal or parallel to the recording medium surface, permitting control of both focus and tracking of information bits on the surface. The preferred embodiment employs two bi-directional linear actuators, each comprising a pair of back-to-back uni-directional actuators, each of which includes a flexible tubular housing enclosing a stack of thin, perforated disc-shaped electrodes separated by a dielectric fluid. Conductive elastomeric spacer rods support the disks in a parallel, longitudinally, spaced apart arrangement. Applying a voltage to adjacent pairs of disks via the conductive elastomeric rods causes an electrostatic attraction force between adjacent disks to shorten the stack. Contraction of the stack housing causes an elongated actuator rod disposed longitudinally through the housing and attached to a transverse end cap sealing the housing at one end to be extended further from the opposite end cap of the housing, the free end of the rod thus being able to exert a pushing force.

Abstract: A computer system having a suspend/resume capability in addition to the normal operating state and the off state. Closure events of single momentary pushbutton switch control changes between the normal operating state, the suspend state, and the off state, depending on the value of a flag. If the flag is set in a certain state, closure events of the switch cause the computer system to change back and forth between the normal operating state and the off state. If the flag is set in a different state, closure events of the switch cause the computer system to change back and forth between the normal operating state and the suspend state. The switch also controls the video subsystem of the computer system such that pressing the switch blanks the video display terminal giving the user instantaneous feedback of the switch press.
