Abstract: For the purpose of data compression and expansion in the playback mode reproducing data including video data and audio data recorded on a magnetic tape (2), a relative speed signal is generated from a circuit (86) on the basis of the moving speed of the magnetic tape and the rotation speed of a head drum (1), and the character­istic of the recorded data is controlled according to this relative speed signal. The tension of the magnetic tape is detected by a circuit (97), and the phase difference between the detected tape tension signal and a reel rotation speed command signal is detected by a circuit (98) so as to control the tape tension according to the detected phase difference. When a target value of the drum rotation speed is changed, a drum drive signal is changed stepwise at a predetermined time interval, and the amount of delay of a drum rotation reference signal delayed according to a signal indicative of the rotation speed of a capstan (8) is changed, so as to determine the range in which both the capstan rotation speed and the drum rotation speed can be changed. Interfaces (17, 76) are disposed between a system controller (16) and a pitch controller (77) so as to control the tone pitch of the audio signal according to the capstan rotation speed signal.

Abstract: In a steam iron (1) with a water reservoir (8), a steam chamber (10) with steam outlet openings (11) in the iron soleplate (2) and a first valve (9) which controls the water supply from the water reservoir (8) to the steam chamber (10), the water flow through the first valve (9) is controlled via the iron pressure force or the iorn movements by the iron soleplate (2) being displaceable in relation to the first valve (9) so that the pressure ram (23) opens the valve (9). As a result of this, steam is only produced when the iron (1) is moved to and fro on the article to be ironed with a given iron pressure force. Setting the iron (1) down in the vertical position is then no longer necessary to prevent unnecessary steam outlet. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a digital data receiver (80) for demodulating a direct sequence spread spectrum differential phase shift keyed data signal, the signal is applied to the input transducer (140) of a SAW device (100) which has first and second output transducers (142, 144) spaced apart on the SAW substrate (130) so as to produce first and second output signals on output lines (102, 104), which are relatively delayed by a time corresponding to a symbol period. The output transducers are of identical construction and are matched to the spread spectrum code utilized in the data signal. Thus, a single SAW device (100) effects both correlation and delay. The output signals on the output lines (102, 104) are processed by a circuit including multipliers (106, 110) and a phase shifter (108) to produce output data signals representing the received data.
