Abstract: The invention relates to a device for detecting six components of the relative movement of two bodies during a primary two-dimensional translatory base movement. Said device is comprised of a two-dimensional plate (2) provided with optical grating. Said plate is equipped with a number (three) of vertically arranged devices (10-12) for detecting distance (i.g. calipers). The invention also has a second element (1) comprised of an arrangement of two or three optical gratings (6-8) (reading head) and a surface (9) which is parallel to said gratings. The first plate (2) is fastened to a body. The second element (1) with a second body is brought closer to the first body such that the optical grating permits a detection of the relative displacements which are parallel to the lower plate in X and Y directions via an evaluation of the intensity of fluctuations of the reflected light. Three optical gratings, of which two are parallel to one another, are used for evaluating and the horizontal relative movements and relative rotations (C rotation around Z) vertical to the lower plate surface can be detected. At the same time, the vertically arranged distance detection devices detect the distances between both devices at three positions. The excursions of said i.g. calipers permit a detection of the additional components of relative movement of both bodies Z- distance/movement, positions/rotations around the X axis and Y axis simultaneously to the above mentioned relative displacements and rotations in the X-Y plane. The calipers (10-12) can also be placed on the upper body (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the thickness of a body, especially the wall thickness of extruded plastic tubes according to the ultrasonic echo principle. In order to obtain accurate measuring results of the thickness of a body even when temperatures fluctuate, the invention provides that the dampening of the ultrasonic signal is determined parallel to the propagation time measurement in the test sample. Said dampening is determined by comparing the mid-band frequencies of a wideband ultrasonic signal which passes into the body and the mid-band frequencies of the reflected ultrasonic signal which is emitted from said body after the body passes through the signal. Based on the concept of temperature compensation, the propagation rate of the ultrasonic signal in addition to the wall thickness are corrected using the detected measured value.

Abstract: A bridge for a multi-processor system includes bus interfaces for connection to an I/O bus of a first processing set, an I/O bus of a second processing set, and a device bus. A bridge control mechanism is configured to provide geographic addressing for devices on the device bus and to be responsive to a request from a device on the device bus for direct access to a resource of a processing set to verify that an address supplied by the device falls within a correct geographic range. A different geographic address range can allocated to each of a plurality of device slots on the device bus. A different geographic address range can also be allocated to the processor set resources (e.g., processor set memory). An address decoding mechanism maintain geographic address mappings, and verifies geographic addresses for direct memory access. The geographic address mappings can be configured in random access memory of the bridge. A slot response register is associated with each slot on the device bus. The slot response register records ownership of a device by the processing sets. The bridge control mechanism responds to a direct memory access request from a device on the device bus to access the slot response register for the slot for the requesting device for identifying the owning processor set, for enabling access to the memory of the owning processor set. The slot response registers can be configured in random access memory in the bridge.

Abstract: A method for encoding speech at a low bit rate. The method assembles parameters on N consecutive frames to form a super-frame. A vector quantization of transition frequencies of a voicing during each super-frame is made. Only the most frequent configurations are transmitted without deterioration and the least frequent configurations are replaced by the configuration that is the nearest in terms of absolute error among most frequent configurations. The pitch is encoded in carrying out a scalar quantization of only one value of the pitch for each super-frame. The energy is encoded in selecting only a reduced number of values in assembling these values in sub-packets quantized by vector quantization. The spectral envelope parameters are encoded by vector quantization in selecting only a determined number of filters. The untransmitted energy values are recovered in the synthesis part by interpolation or extrapolation from transmitted values. Such a method may find particular application in vocoders.

The mandrel may be arranged to draw the members inwardly to permit positive retraction of the members from an extended configuration. Further, the body may define a channel (32) and the mandrel and the members include an arrangement (38, 39, 40, 42) for maintaining a desired orientation of the members relative to the body channel.
