IPC: H04M3/42

Abstract: A minimum interruption cycle time is established for a reserve agent in a call center.
The reserve agent may be an exclusively reserve agent which processes only calls requiring
reserve skills. In an illustrative embodiment, after the reserve agent completes the
processing of a call, a cycle timer is started for that agent. The delivery of additional calls
to the reserve agent is then suspended until the value of the cycle timer is greater than or
equal to the established minimum interruption cycle time for that agent. The minimum
interruption cycle time is selected so as to allow the reserve agent to complete a designated
number of non-call tasks between the calls processed by the reserve agent. If there is a pool
of reserve agents, one or more of the reserve agents may be temporarily converted to
normal agent status for at least one particular skill that is causing excessive interruption of
reserve agents, so as to maintain the minimum interruption cycle time for the remaining
reserve agents in the presence of an increased call volume.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système collisionneur de matériaux permettant de réduire la taille des matériaux particulaires solides qui sont introduits dans le système. Le système de l'invention comprend deux chambres cylindriques reliées entre elles (52,54) munie chacune d'un ensemble rotor rotatif (60,61) comportant plusieurs jeux de disques (64) et des guides de poussée montés rigides (70). Les ensembles rotors sont alignés parallèlement les uns aux autres et fonctionnent de façon contrarotative. Les guides de poussée sont montés sur les jeux de disques de façon qu'ils s'étendent radialement vers l'extérieur des jeux de disques et chaque guide de poussée est maintenu dans une position sensiblement rigide par une goupille de cisaillement. Dans un mode de réalisation, les guides de poussée des deux rotors sont agencés selon une configuration alternante interdigitée. Les jeux de disques peuvent être décalés sur la longueur des ensembles rotors de façon que les guides de poussée forment un motif de spirale à 360 degrés. Les ensembles rotors sont entraînés par des moteurs fixés à l'extérieur des chambres. Des moyens d'étanchéité empêchent les matériaux de s'échapper des chambres et d'endommager le système d'entraînement du collisionneur de matériaux.

Abstract: A signal output assembly for an inductive output amplifier comprises a primary output cavity (50) including a drift tube enclosing a modulated electron beam. The density modulated beam passes across a gap separating portions (32, 34) of the drift tube and induces an amplified RF signal into the primary output cavity (50). A secondary output cavity (60) comprises a coaxial resonator terminated in an inductive coupling loop (57), and a waveguide (64) having a ridge (62). The coaxial resonator and the inductive coupling loop (57) have a combined electrical length approximately equivalent to an odd multiple of one-quarter wavelengths of the input signal (nμ/4), where n is an odd integer. The coaxial resonator is electrically connected perpendicularly to a centre of the ridge (62) such that first and second portions of the ridge extend in opposite directions from the connection with the coaxial resonator to respective ends of the waveguide (64). The first and second ridge portions each have a length approximately equivalent to an odd multiple of one-quarter waveguide wavelengths of the input signal (nμg/4), where n is an odd integer. The inductive coupling loop (57) is coupled at a first end thereof to an end of a centre conductor (52) of the coaxial resonator and at a second end thereof to an outer conductor (56) of the coaxial resonator. The inductive coupling loop (57) extends into the primary output cavity (50) and is adapted to couple the amplified RF signal from the primary output cavity (50) to the secondary output cavity (60). The amplified RF signal is thereafter coupled out of the secondary output cavity (60) through a secondary inductive coupling loop (74).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (10) for producing and/or processing plastic material mixtures comprising a mixing head (11) which has one or several inlets (15) for the mixture constituents and in which a mixer (17) provided for mixing the constituents is rotationally driven. An outlet (22) is provided in the mixing head for ejecting the finished mixture. Said outlet can be closed or opened by the head of the mixer in the manner of a nozzle needle. To this end, the mixer is arranged in the housing (12) of the device such that it can be axially displaced. In order to prevent an abrupt opening or closing of the outlet, which can thus lead to losses in quality when using sensitive plastic materials, the invention provides that the raising and lowering of the mixer in the mixing head is effected via a mechanical cam drive (40) comprising at least one actuating cam (42) which interacts with a lifting element (60) that acts upon the mixer (17) or the shaft thereof (24). Since the actuating cams can be fabricated and used in any desired contour, the invention makes it possible, when opening the outlet (22), to firstly lift the mixer slowly from the opening and then to continuously increase the opening speed, whereby the plastic material mixture in the mixing chamber can immediately fill,the mixing chamber volume which increases during opening. In addition, reductions in pressure are prevented thus avoiding consequential losses in the quality of the mixture.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un modulateur de sortie comprenant un modulateur (102) en quadrature. Ce modulateur comprend un bloc (100) de préaccentuation qui produit un signal de sortie comportant une préaccentuation. Le bloc (100) de préaccentuation compense de manière anticipée les erreurs introduites par le modulateur (102) en quadrature, conformément à une série de paramètres de préaccentuation. Le modulateur (102) en quadrature reçoit les signaux de sortie en provenance du bloc (100) de préaccentuation, et réalise une conversion-élévation et une combinaison des signaux des canaux I et Q. Au cours de ce processus, le modulateur (102) en quadrature introduit des erreurs. En mode d'étalonnage, une onde sinusoïdale de fréquence fcal est appliquée à la sortie du bloc (100) de préaccentuation tandis que la fréquence de sortie du modulateur est abaissée à l'aide d'un détecteur AM. L'énergie parasite résultant des erreurs du modulateur en quadrature mais réduite sous l'action du bloc (100) de préaccentuation, est générée aux fréquences fcal et 2*fcal. Un calculateur (166) de minimisation polynomiale quadratique détermine une nouvelle valeur pour les paramètres de préaccentuation à partir de la relation quadratique entre les énergies présentes dans la représentation numérique du spectre de la sortie du modulateur (102) en quadrature, aux fréquences fcal et 2*fcal, et des valeurs des paramètres de préaccentuation antérieurs.

Abstract: A modular track suspension system is readily adapted for attachment to any presently manufactured full-size automotive vehicle built with a load-carrying frame, being easily substituted for the vehicle's conventional wheeled undercarriage either during or following final assembly. The module uses a pair of endless rubber tracks, one track under each respective side of the vehicle; and each track is frictionally driven by tandem pairs of dual-wheels with rubber tires, each tandem pair of wheels being driven, respectively, by an intermediately positioned drive-unit axle. The dual-wheels are each movable in a vertical plane, and each dual-wheel can move separately and independently of the similar independent movement of the other dual-wheel with which it is tandemly paired. Each dual-wheel is also resiliently biased in the direction of the terrain on which the vehicle is standing or moving. Driving torque is delivered to the two endless tracks through a plurality of differentials appropriately and simply connected directly with the vehicle's drive shaft. In all preferred embodiments, an additional differential that is connected with, and is responsive to, the operation of the vehicle's steering wheel superimposes additive and subtractive steering torques to the already differentiated driving torques being delivered to the left-side and right-side tracks for controlling the vehicle's direction.
