Abstract: A two-player game combining an assembly of ring-form components modifiable by the rotation and sliding of two handles. The game has first and second handles separated by a series of rotatable game rings. Each game ring bears a pattern of selected indicia about its circumference. Game ring engagement members associated with the handles are constructed for engagement with and rotation of selected of the game rings to align selected of the indicia thereon with indicia on adjacent game rings, by pushing, pulling and rotating movement of the handles about a central common axis, each game rings being free to rotate about the central common axis and held by a series of stationary spacer rings. In one preferred embodiment, an electronic indicator circuit detects occurrence of a predetermined desired alignment of indicia and emits a signal thereupon.

Abstract: An incrementing mechanism suitable for use in a medical injector device has a driving member rotatably and slidably mounted within a tubular body and arranged to advance an elongate element in one direction with respect to the tubular body. A one-way clutch includes a generally conical surface and a blocking clutch member engageable with the conical surface. Means are provided to disengage the clutch, including a pressure component arranged and biased to engage the clutch member. Rotation of the driving member with respect to the pressure component causes two sets of inter-engageable teeth to ride over each other, which successively lifts the pressure component to disengage the clutch member from the conical surface and then allows the pressure component to be biased to a position where the clutch member engages the conical surface.

Abstract: A radio frequency feedback amplifier circuit of high linearity within the range of frequencies with which the circuit is to be used includes a high gain amplifier incorporating a bandpass filter in the form of a single resonator which may be tunable, connected in the forward path of the amplifier stage and tuned so that its resonant frequency is at substantially the signal frequency, and a linear passive feedback circuit. A tuning arrangement (64, 65, 66, 67) includes phase detection elements (66), such as a Gilbert cell, for determining the phase shift across the resonator (62) and for adjusting a variable capacitance (64, 65) within the resonator (62) to tune the resonant circuit, in dependence on the frequency of the input to the circuit. Such an amplifier circuit may be used to achieve high linearity and stability at reasonable manufacturing cost, with much greater simplicity than can be achieved using other feedback techniques.

Abstract: Both the optical distance of the detected -light light path and the optical distance of the reference-light light path are simultaneously varied according to respective specified patterns, so that differences are created between the period of variation in the intensity of the required signal component (in the interference signals) and the periods of variation in the intensities of the coherent noise components. When the modulation scanning procedure is performed, the phase difference between the detected light and reference light in a specified state is determined as shape information for the above-mentioned detected surface on the basis of the interference signals output from the light-receiving element. As a result, it is possible to securely reduce the effects of coherent noise components generated as a result of the interference of specified noise light that has passed through at least portions of the detected-light light path and reference-light light path with the detected light or reference light. <IMAGE>
