Abstract: A runflat tire construction is optimized for tire ride comfort by reducing tire wall gauges (G1, G2, G3) in the tread-shoulder-to-upper-sidewall transition region (117a, 117b, 176a, 176b) and compensating with supporting sidewalls (116, 118, 177, 178) that constantly increase in thickness (gauge) from the transition region to a bead/flange area (148a, 148b, 172a, 172b) where a chafer (144a, 144b, 162a, 162b) extends above a wheel rim flange. Thus the bead and lower sidewall area are reinforced to a maximum and the shoulder area gets only the minimum stiffness necessary to achieve the required runflat performance. Within the context of wall gauges that constantly increase from the transition region to the bead/flange area, a mid-sidewall gauge ratio (MSGR), being equal to a mid-sidewall gauge (G2) divided by a shoulder gauge (G1), is approximately within the range of 1.1 to 1.4, preferably approximately equal to 1.3; and a bead/flange gauge ratio (BFGR), being equal to a bead/flange gauge (G3) divided by a shoulder gauge (G1), is approximately within the range of 1.5 to 1.8, preferably approximately equal to 1.7. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The adhesive or other coating is applied onto the web of material, at most over the width of the uncut web.  Width of coating is less than that of the web. Following the pressing gap a first edge section of the web is taken out. It is removed before the pressing gap. The trimmed edge strip passes through the pressing gap, together with the remaining web. The same processes are applied to the opposite edge strip. Edge strip removal takes place before or after transfer of the web into the next section of the production machine. Further details of plant configurations based on these principles are described. Contaminated edges are cleaned to minimize contamination of the recirculated process water by adhesive, chemicals etc. The water is recirculated in a closed loop; it is neutralized. Further provisions excluding contamination and machine configurations are described. The separated edges are subjected to suction, blowing and/or rolling. They are dried, neutralized, processed and re-used. Their treatment avoids interference with chemicals in the wet section of the machine. A pressing felt with sealed edges is used. The press covering is hydrophobic in the region of the first and/or second edge strip.  An Independent claim is included for corresponding coating plant.

Abstract: Disclosed is an AGC detector device and an AGC detecting method for television receivers displaying video pictures consisting of a plurality of horizontal lines to be built up successively, wherein a CVBS signal is inputted which includes horizontal sync pulses having a front porch region and a back porch region and occurring once a horizontal line during a horizontal sync period when generating a current video picture, and further includes vertical sync pulses occurring during a vertical sync period before the generation of a new video picture and including serration pulses which occur during a serration pulse region being part of the vertical sync period. Further, gating pulses are generated having a period which is equal to the line period of the horizontal sync pulses. Said gating pulses are adjusted such that they occur at the back porch region of the horizontal sync pulses. The particularity of the invention is that the occurrence of the gating pulses is shifted during the serration pulse region of the vertical sync period so that the gating pulses occur earlier by a time interval corresponding to the time distance between a front porch region and the next back porch region or later by a time interval corresponding to the time distance between a back porch region and the next front porch region.

The coupler also includes an annular collar. The connector also includes a body member, one end of which includes a lip. The lip is inserted through the collar opening. The other end of the body section includes an inner surface portion. The connector still further includes a post, an end of which is sized for insertion between the dielectric and the outer conductor of the cable. The post further includes a post flange and a post shank. The post shank forms a post channel sufficient in diameter to receive the inner conductor and the dielectric of the cable. The post is movable between a cable-insertion position and a cable-installed position. In the cable-installed position, the post shank is received in the body member to form an annular chamber between the post shank and the inner surface portion. The annular chamber is sufficiently narrow in this cable-installed position to compress the outer conductor and the jacket with the post shank and the inner surface portion for establishing a distal seal. Tightening of the coupler to the terminal compresses the lip between the post flange and the annular collar for establishing a proximal seal. Related methods also are provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a piezoelectric motor having a stator in the form of a hollow-cylindrical oscillator, the at least one front side of which has frictional contact with a rotor and which comprises standing wave generators. According to the invention the hollow cylinder is set into a coupled tangential-axial oscillation mode so that the cylinder mainly has tangential and axial oscillatory components. The oscillatory speed maximums of the tangential components are formed on the front sides of the hollow cylinder and those of the axial components directly underneath thereof, wherein the components decrease towards the center of the cylinder height and, in the center of the cylinder height, substantially parallel to the front sides, a nodal line is formed on which the axial oscillatory component adopts the value zero and the tangential components adopt a minimum. With a motor operated in such a manner the kinetic drive energy for the rotor is concentrated in the proximity of the front sides of the hollow cylinder, wherein a mechanical attachment for the motor can be arranged in the central portion on the zero line of the oscillatory speed components.
