Abstract: An automated storage system transports storage media such as data cartridges between a storage device and a plurality of storage cells via a picker assembly. The storage cells are formed of one or more removable magazines. The picker assembly accurately locates each data cartridge within a storage cell by first establishing a zero position reference and locating a home position relatively therefrom. The home position corresponds to a predetermined point on each magazine. An infrared detector and infrared sensor are situated on the picker assembly for precisely locating the home position. Each cartridge is known to be located within a predetermined tachometer count range from the home position. The detector/sensor is used to precisely locate each cartridge. The precise tachometer position is stored and the cartridge is returned to the known location. As a result, tolerance accumulation effects are eliminated in the system.

Abstract: A phase shifter, which can switch between a phase delay circuit and a phase leading circuit consisting of inductors and capacitors, is constituted by disposing FETs having inductors or capacitors arranged in parallel with the source and drain electrodes of each FET connected and controlling a bias voltage to be applied to the gate electrodes of the FETs to switch between the on and off conditions of the FETs. Thus, a phase shifter obtained has a small frequency characteristic.

Abstract: The seal of the gas container is opened by means of electrical and/or magnetic energy or through a conversion of electrical and/or magnetic energy into kinetic energy and/or into thermal energy, all of which produce heating up of the gases. The energy is produced by a high voltage generator, a pulse generator or a plasma generator, or may be obtained from a condenser, coil, accumulator or battery. The heating up of the gases is achieved by a chemical reaction where the reacting gases with metal parts, combustible gases or fluids set in motion an oxidation process through heat generation.

Abstract: An electronically commutated motor has at least three rotor position sensors generating digital signals. To each commutating state of the motor is assigned a given combination of signals. These signals all form a first batch. Auxiliary information is given at the rotor by the same sensors to generate speed signals and these form a second batch of combinations. The rotor position information is given as a magnetising pattern and the sensors are galvano-magnetic types in order to detect this pattern. The auxiliary information coincides with the central region of each rotor pole, this being less than 60 electrical degrees, and during a pole rotation of about 20 electrical degrees.

Abstract: A wire guide and optical storage spool assembly of this invention is adapted to engage with a patch panel housing (2) optical fiber or conductive wire connectors. A wire guide has a substantially C-shaped part with a first side from which extend first and second angled members (10,11). The first and second angled members (10,11) have substantially L-shaped surfaces and the second angled member is capable of flexing toward the first angled member. In close proximity to the L-shaped surface of the second angled member, a cylindrical member (12) is disposed. The first side of the C-shaped part also supports a locking member (13) which is normally disposed with an end in close proximity to the second angled member so that the second angled member cannot be flexed in a direction toward the first angled member. However, the locking member (13) is capable of flexing in a direction transverse to the direction in which the second angled member (11) is flexed toward the first angled member, to clear a path in which the second angled member passes when flexed, preferably by pushing with a finger against the cylindrical member. When the second angled (11) member is flexed, the first and second angled members can be inserted in respective apertures in the patch panel after which the second angled member can be released to engage the wire guide with the patch panel. When the second angled member (11) flexes toward its normal, unflexed position, the locking member is no longer obstructed from returning to its normal, unflexed position and accordingly does so. Thus, the locking member prevents the second angled member from flexing toward the first angled member so that the wire guide cannot inadvertently release from the patch panel. The optical fiber storage spool (4) has a base supporting a spool about which can be wound optical fibers connected by connectors in the patch panel. To confine the optical fibers in near proximity to an outside surface of the spool, substantially L-shaped members (20) are supported by the base and curve toward the spool. Also, the spool has tabs extending outwardly from the spool which also tend to confine the optical fibers in near proximity to the spool. The storage spool has guides with arcuate surfaces that tend to direct the optical fibers wound on the storage spool toward respective connectors in the patch panel. Slide receptacles supported by the base, engage with respective slides at the second sides of the wire guides. The slide receptacles releasably lock into engagement with the wire guides so that the storage spool cannot inadvertently release from its supporting wire guides. The storage spool also includes optical fiber cable holders against which optical fiber cables can be held using respective ties.

The sampled sequence ({y n }) is supplied from a buffer (42) to an equalizing circuit (43), a channel estimating circuit (44A) and a delay amount estimating circuit (45). The equalizing circuit (43) obtains an estimated transmitted symbol sequence ({Ex n }) from the sampled sequence ({y n }) and an estimated impulse response sequence ({Eht}). The channel estimating circuit (44A) obtains the estimated impulse response sequence ({Eht}) from the sampled sequence ({y n }), estimated transmitted symbol sequence ({Ex n }) and the estimated error (e n ). The delay amount estimating circuit (45) supplies an estimated delay amount (EDelay) to a step-size control circuit (44c). An error extracting circuit (44a) obtains the estimated error. The step-size control circuit (44c) controls a step-size parameter in response to the delay amount (EDelay), and a tap coefficient update circuit (44b) updates the tap coefficients by the estimated transmitted symbol (Ex(n)), estimated error e n  and step-size parameter.
