Date Aug. 31, 1995A switching device for a telecommunications channel. The device comprises a voltage detector, a switch, and a storage device. The voltage detector produces an output voltage if the voltage between the lines of the channel exceeds a predetermined level, for example 110 volts. The switch can increase an impedance in one of the lines (preferably causing open circuit) in response to an input voltage. The first storage device, for example a capacitor, produces the input voltage when it reaches a charge V2; is initially at a voltage V1, for example zero, that is less than V2; after charging by the output voltage from the voltage detector, is at a voltage V3 greater than V2; and discharges from V3 to V1 in the absence of the output voltage. The voltage detector comprising a low-pass filter such that an AC signal on the channel produces an output voltage that charges the first storage device to a charge below V2.

Abstract: The method involves using a digitiser (18) to form a speech signal into successive frames divided into typically 4 subframes of 40 samples of 16 bits. A coder (16) delivers a binary sequence at a substantially slower rate to a channel encoder (22), introducing error detection and/or correction bits. Each frame is analysed by short-term linear prediction (26) to determine coeffts. of a short-term synthesis filter. For each subframe, an excitation sequence is determined which after filtering produces a synthetic signal representing the speech. The subframe is divided into segments corresp. to pulses of stochastic excitation (40), and the positions of these pulses are found so that there is at most one in each segment.

Date Oct. 24, 1996A curved sliding element for a plain bearing and a method of producing same. The sliding element includes a generally semi-circular backing member having a central apex and a concave surface. At least one, and preferably two, intermediate layers are applied to the concave surface of the backing member. A dispersion alloy overlay is applied to the exposed intermediate layer using an electron beam vaporizer. The electron beam vaporizer evenly deposits the dispersion alloy over an angular segment, approximately 70 DEG  on either side of the apex, in a such controlled manner that the thickness of the overlay deviates less than 15% across the entire angular segment. The vaporizer is moved during the overlay deposition in a linear path relative to the backing member while maintaining the distance from the linear path of the vaporizer to the apex between 150 to 350 mm. The relative speed between the vaporizer and the backing member can be varied to enhance deposition characteristics, such as by reducing the speed as the backing member nears the vaporizer and increasing the speed as the backing member moves away from the vaporizer. It may also be beneficial to position a screen between the linear path and the backing member. The screen includes a face presented toward the vaporizer which is maintained at a temperature above the melting point of the dispersion alloy.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of automatically welding heater coil fittings substantially made of plastics. According to the invention, data concerning the fitting are automatically read in particular from a data carrier of the fitting. The welding power supplied to the heater coil is controlled on the basis of these data and taking account of the ambient temperature. In order that welding can be carried out reliably even at low ambient temperature and with high air humidity without the assembly area being heated, when the ambient temperature is below a predetermined value a preheating and dehumidifying step is carried out before the step in which the welding power (PSchw) is fed to the heater coil. During the preheating and dehumidifying step, the heater coil is acted upon with preheating power (PVorw) which is less than the welding power (PSchw) for a predetermined preheating and dehumidifying period (t1 - t2) until the weld surfaces of the fitting (1) and of an adjacent pipe and the air between the weld surfaces have been preheated to a temperature which is higher than ambient temperature and at which the plastics has not yet plasticized.

Abstract: The invention relates to a floorball stick blade arrangement which improves the playing properties of the stick with regard to receiving a pass and passing and shooting a ball. The blade (2) includes a damping device in the form of a damping element (1, 3) on at least one side thereof, wherein the damping element is located within a blade region that is located at a height level from the bottom edge of the blade which exceeds one ball radius (R). The blade (2) also includes a non-dampened shot zone located at a lower height level than the damping device (1, 3). The damping element (1, 3) is located on the forehand and/or the backhand side of the blade. If desired, the damping element (1, 3) may be exchangeable and made of a material that is different to the material from which the remainder of the blade (2) is made. The ball impacts the damping element (damping zone) when the blade (2) is angled slightly in a forward direction ( alpha  smaller than 90 degrees), such as to provide a damping effect when receiving a ball and when passing a ball (fig. 4). When the blade is angled slightly rearwards ( alpha  greater than 90 degrees), the ball impacts the blade (2) beneath the damping element (1) so as to enable a hard non-dampened shot to be fired.

Abstract: A multi-rate, multi-head positioner (150) receives and processes unpanelized positioning commands to actuate slow stages (56, 58) and multiple fast stages (154) that are mounted on one of the slow stages to simultaneously position multiple tools (156) relative to target locations (162) on multiple associated workpieces (152). Each of the fast stages is coupled to a fast stage signal processor (172) that provides corrected position data to each fast stage positioner to compensate for fast stage nonlinearities and workpiece placement, offset, rotation, and dimensional variations among the multiple workpieces. When cutting blind via holes in etched circuit boards (ECBs), improved throughput and process yield are achieved by making half of the tools ultraviolet ("UV") lasers, which readily cut conductor and dielectric layers, and making the other half of the tools are infrared ("IR") lasers, which readily cut only dielectric layers. The UV lasers are controlled to cut an upper conductor layer and a portion of an underlying dielectric layer, and the IR lasers are controlled to cut the remaining dielectric layer without cutting through or damaging a second underlying conductor layer. The throughput is increased by cutting conductor layers in unprocessed ECBs while concurrently cutting dielectric layers in ECBs that have already had their conductor layer cut. The process yield is increased by performing a workpiece calibration prior to each cutting step to account for any ECB placement, offset, rotation, and dimensional variations.
