Patent EP-0251972-A3 (EP)
Title: Improved spring hinge with a damper
IPC: E05F3/20
Filed: 1987-06-17
Abstract: The present invention refers to a hinge for doors having a spring with a damper, being made up by two cylindrical bodies (1, 2), solidarized respectively with the blades (3,4) for anchoring to the door and frame respectively. One of said cylindrical bodies (1, 2) constitutes a tight chamber (5), by means of closure and caps (6, 7), inside which is placed a piston (8) laterally related with the cylinder by means of longitudinal guides (9) which hinder the rotation of the piston (8). Said piston (8) presents an axial threaded pitch (10), through which it is left mounted in a spindle (11) with an ample thread pitch, which spindle (11) forms the extreme part of an axial shaft (12) which passes through a central perforation (13) of one of the closure caps (6) of said tight chamber (5). All of it is disposed in a mode that the rotation of the second cylindrical body (2) of the hinge through the coupling of its blade (4) corresponding to the door, performs a torsion effort of the spring (19), whilst a rotation of the central shaft (12) takes place in the tight chamber (5) which is occupied by an oleo-hydraulic fluid.
Patent EP-0288811-A3 (EP)
IPC: H05B6/76
Filed: 1988-04-11
Abstract: An interlock switch assembly (10) is disclosed having a 
unitary baseplate (12) with relatively few moving parts 
and making use of conventional low cost miniature switches, 
each positively located and retained with respect to the 
baseplate (12). First and second actuators (34, 36) convert, 
respectively, linear motion of first and second operators (19, 
20) into rotary motion to actuate the miniature switches (26a, 
26b). Switch actuation is prevented unless the properly 
timed motion of both operators (19, 20) is received by the 
actuators (34, 36). A third actuator (100) receives the 
motion of the first operator (19) and actuates a third switch 
(30) in response thereto. In one embodiment, the third 
actuator (100) is prevented from actuating the third switch (30) 
until after actuation of the first and second switches 
(26a, 26b). In one embodiment, a primary interlock switch 
(30) is the first switch deactuated and is preferably capable 
of interrupting power to the microwave energy source when the 
door is opened before the cooking cycle is completed. In this 
embodiment, the next switch to be deactuated is a logic monitor 
switch (26a), followed by release of a secondary interlock switch 
(26b) acting as a backup to the primary interlock switch (30). 
Finally, an interlock monitor switch (32) is deactuated preferably 
placing a short circuit across the load side of a power circuit 
of the switch assembly (10) in order to blow a fuse in the event 
of a "failed-closed" condition of both the primary and 
secondary interlock switches (26a, 26b) in the deactuated state.

Patent EP-0302432-A3 (EP)
Title: Document decompressing system
IPC: H04N1/417
Filed: 1988-08-01
Abstract: A code parser decodes coded compressed image 
information. A code expander operating asynchronously relative 
to the code parser decompresses the compressed image information 
in accordance with the decoding of such information by the code 
parser. A code window register in the code parser has a length 
at least as long as the longest code in the coded compressed 
image information. When the code indicates a pattern in one 
line in a raster scan of an image corresponding (or 
substantially corresponding) to a pattern in a previous line in 
the raster scan, the code window register and associated 
circuitry scan the line and provide for the decompression in the 
line being expanded (decompressed) in accordance with the 
decompression at the (substantially) corresponding positions in 
the preceding line. Such associated circuitry may include two 
memories, one for even scan lines and the other for odd scan 
lines. Alternate ones of the memories are activated for 
information comparison between adjacent lines during alternate 
line scans. When the same color is to be printed at a number of 
successive positions in the line being expanded, a counter is 
set to indicate such number and to count such number as the line 
is being expanded. During this count, the same color is 
output. The code parser requests successive codes from an 
external source and acknowledges the receipt of such successive 
codes. The code expander receives new codes and expansion 
instructions from the code parser and acknowledges the receipt 
of such codes. Under certain circumstances, the code parser may 
 
 
not operate on the next code until the code expander has 
decompressed the information represented by the previous code. 
The code expander provides the decompressed image information at 
its output.

Title: Inclined rectangular pattern generating system
IPC: G09G5/20
Filed: 1989-08-31
Abstract: An inclined rectangular pattern generating system includes a 
lengthwise straight line generator coupled to receive an inclined angle 
information for generating X- and Y- direction increment/decrement 
signals indicative of a coordinate change component between a dot being 
currently written to the memory and a dot to be next written to the 
memory, these dots being adjacent to each other and being included in a 
string of dots which form a lengthwise straight line in parallel to a 
lengthwise side of the inclined rectangular pattern to be generated. There 
is also provided a widthwise straight line generator coupled to the inclined 
angle information for generating X- and Y- direction 
increment/decrement signals indicative of a coordinate change component 
between a starting dot of a lengthwise straight line being currently written 
to the memory and a starting dot of another lengthwise straight line to be 
next written to the memory. A dot controller is coupled to the lengthwise 
and widthwise straight line generators and operates in such a manner that 
when the lengthwise straight line generator indicates a coordinate change 
both in X- and Y- directions and when the widthwise straight line 
generator indicates a coordinate change both in X- and Y- directions, the 
dot controller causes the dot information writing circuit to write a dot 
information to a memory location of a display memory corresponding to 
a coordinate which changes only either in the X-direction or in the 
Y-direction from the coordinate to which the dot information has been 
written just before.

Title: Pusher grate installation for the heat treatment of bulk material
IPC: F27B21/02
Filed: 1989-12-16
Abstract: The heat treatment of solids by combustion, cooling, or the like with the aid of gas may take place on a grate conveying such solids while the gas is passed through openings in the surface of the grate. In order to provide lateral clearances of such grates with the same order of narrowness as the majority of the grate's openings, the mobile framework of the grate is suspended by tension elements inclined at an angle of at least 3 degrees relative to the perpendicular. If the mobile frame deviates from a straight course, the inclined suspension creates a centering force guiding the mobile frame without mechanical contact and wear. As a result, the lateral clearances for thermal expansion and building tolerances are reduced from about 20 to 2 mm.
