Patent EP-0385681-A3 (EP)
IPC: B21L9/02
Filed: 1990-02-26
Abstract: A power transmission chain (12) having a plurality 
of pin connected articulating and guide ranks (18) 
wherein each rank may include plain links (20) having a 
thickness that may vary from rank to rank. A group of 
plain links having a preselected thickness (A) is 
disposed in articulating ranks throughout the chain. 
Other groups of plain links having a different 
preselected thickness (B) are disposed in 
nonarticulating ranks of the chain. The combination of 
different thickness plain links disposed in a 
preselected manner coupled with elastic guide links 
throughout the chain is effective to minimise wear. The 
groups of plain links having preselected but different 
thicknesses cooperate with different thickness guide 
links (26) therein so as to improve load distribution 
thereacross, achieve equal deformation between the plain 
links and the guide links and maintain the transverse 
connecting pins (38) substantially parallel to each 
other. The plain links in this chain which are of the 
two toe variety are characterized by having nonidentical 
 
 
toes (30,32). As a result of this difference, the 
dimensions from the center of the pins to the working 
surfaces of each toe vary with the result being that the 
timing between successive link and sprocket tooth 
engagements can be varied.

Title: Apparatus for measuring three-dimensional curved surface shapes
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 1990-03-05
Abstract: A three-dimensional curved surface shape measuring 
apparatus of the slit light rotating type. In accordance 
with a composite image ϑ (x′, y′) produced when a slit 
light is rotationally scanned with resect to a picture of 
an object to be measured and horizontal displacements x o  
and vertical displacements z o  of an axis of rotation of 
the slit light with respect to an origin of a reference 
plane, a necessary computational processing is performed 
to determine a three-dimensional shape f(x, y) of the 
object surface which is free of distortions due to a 
perspective effect of a television camera.

Title: Comprehensive system for evaluation of velocities of acoustical energy of sedimentary rocks
IPC: G01V1/30
Filed: 1990-03-23
Abstract: An improved comprehensive system for definition of velocities 
of acoustic energy of sedimentary rocks is provided. First, 
geophysical exploration data available in the prior art is 
collected and organized to be defined as sequences and to define 
velocity behavior within sequences, and used to obtain consistently 
reasonable levels of accuracy of velocity distributions known by 
those skilled in the art. The present invention is particularly 
attentive to seismic sequence definition and to sequence compaction 
behavior. Secondly, in accordance with the present invention, 
means and methods not heretofore known in the art are used to 
sample well, seismic and other sources of data, on an individual 
basis, to define to what extent normal compaction behavior and 
velocities, as previously determined, may have been locally altered 
by other factors. Improved techniques to recognize several factors 
capable of causing abnormal post depositional behavior both at 
points of velocity control and elsewhere in areas of hydrocarbon 
prospecting interest, are intrinsic to the invention, and are 
important features thereof.
Patent EP-0400876-A3 (EP)
Title: Method and apparatus for testing circuit boards
IPC: G01R31/3181
Filed: 1990-05-23
Abstract: A test system (10) is associated with a chain of circuits (12) on a circuit board (13) 
for testing the interconnections (11) linking the circuits in the chain as well as for 
testing the interconnections linking them to those on other boards. The test system 
includes a controller (22) for generating a test signal and for capturing a response 
signal generated by the associated chain of circuits in response to the test signal. 
The controller (22) also generates a flow control signal which controls a network 
(24) that routes the test signals from the controller, or from a first other test system, 
to the associated chain of circuits (12). In accordance with the flow control signal, 
the network (24) also serves to route the response signal from the associated chain of 
circuits (12) to the controller (22) or to a second other test system. By selectively 
routing the test and response signals, the network (24) in each test system (10) 
allows individual testing of each associated chain of circuits or, alternatively, 
permits the chains of circuits on several boards to be effectively interconnected for 
testing.
Patent EP-0400912-A3 (EP)
Title: Optical fiber coating control
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1990-05-25
Abstract: In accordance with the invention, the functions of two TV cameras in 
the prior art for monitoring polymer coating concentricity and/or carbon coating 
thickness are accomplished by a single TV camera (48). Rather than being projected 
onto an opaque dispersive screen, the forward-scattered mode pattern of each of the 
orthogonal beams (57, 58) is transmitted through a translucent screen (52, 53) and 
reflected to an image combining device (67) which transmits both patterns to the 
single TV camera (48). The two beams are slightly vertically displaced to establish 
displaced images (72, 73) of the two patterns. This allows the two patterns to be 
viewed simultaneously and distinguished by the TV camera. Modified electronics 
(FIG. ∼ 10) provide for alternate TV scanning of the two images so that a computer 
(22) can monitor and correct concentricity and/or carbon coating thickness in real 
time during fiber production.

Abstract: A connector for an electric part includes a connector 
body for the connection with the electric part, and a moving 
plate movably mounted on the connector body and able to move 
in the horizontal direction along the upper surface of the 
connector body, the connector body, when moved in one direc­
tion, being brought into contact with the electric part and 
brought out of contact when moved in the other direction. 
The connector comprises first and second operating levers 
operated to move the moving plate in the horizontal direc­
tion, one end of the first operating lever being pivotably 
supported on a side surface of one end of the connector body 
through a supporting shaft and the second operating lever 
being likewise pivotably supported on a side surface of the 
other end of the connector body through a supporting shaft. 
One end of the first operating lever is supported on a side 
surface of one end of the moving plate through a transmission 
shaft and one end of the second operating lever is likewise 
supported on a side surface of the other end of the moving 
plate through a transmission shaft. The transmission shafts 
is disposed such that when the first and second operating 
levers are pivoted in the opposite direction about the sup­
porting shafts, a horizontal force directing in the same 
direction is applied to both ends of the moving plate.

Patent EP-0604346-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HAYNES THOM R
IPC: G06F3/0486
Filed: 1993-12-03
Abstract: A method and apparatus provide a direct manipulation protocol to allow a
user, while dragging a source object to a target object, to pass the source object
through one or more intervening processor objects, causing an appropriate
action to occur to the source object when it is dropped on the target object.
If the source object is passed across a processor object for which no appropriate
action occurs, the source object remains unchanged in appearance and
content. If the source object undergoes modification, its graphical representation
to the user changes, giving the user feedback that the source object has
been modified.
