Abstract: A head suspension assembly for a disk drive has elongated members (7), in the form of flat strips of stainless steel, which have distal ends (7a) welded to the mounting ends (4a) of stainless steel load beams (4) with the load beam (4) and the stainless steel strips (7) in alignment. Magnetic heads (5) are mounted in corresponding positions on the distal ends (4b) of the load beams (4). The stainless steel strips (7) are welded together at their distal ends (7a) with the load beams (4) aligned with one another and the magnetic heads (5) on the distal ends (4b) of the load beams (4) facing in opposite directions. The stainless steel strips (7) are of the same thickness as the reinforcing plates or swage plates which they replace. An arm (3) of an actuator (2) is positioned between and secured to the mounting ends (7b) of the stainless steel strips (7), providing an A-frame type of structure which is light in weight, dimensionally stable and rigid. the A-frame structure is of reduced thickness with respect to conventional head suspensions, permitting closer disk spacing and replaces a corresponding length of heavier conventional arm structure to thereby reduce head suspension inertia.

Abstract: A broadband circuit arrangement is known in which a transformer unit is arranged for matching the impedance of a high-impedance photodiode to a low-impedance input impedance of a subsequent amplifier circuit. For this purpose, the transformer unit is located between the photodiode and the output of the circuit arrangement. To increase the band width whilst maintaining the same gain, a circuit arrangement (SCH1, SCH2) is specified in which the signals are picked up at both poles of the photodiode (D). For this purpose, a transformer unit (T) is coupled to both poles of the photodiode (D). To achieve a higher voltage transformation ratio, a part-transformer (T1, T2) can be arranged at each pole of the photodiode (D), in which arrangement a Ruthroff and a phase-reversal transformer are advantageously selected as part-transformers. The circuit arrangement is used in an optical analog broadband receiver for, for example, optical cable television. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Collaborative work on an interactive system is facilitated by accurately capturing and displaying information on an interactive system, wherein multiple persons may work together for supplying and receiving information with a single large area display. A large area electronic writing system is provided which employs a large area display screen (190), an image projection system (182,184,186,188), and an image receiving system including a light emitting pen (200). The display screen is designed with the imaging surface in front of the substrate, with a thin abrasion resistant layer protecting the imaging surface from the pen tip. The screen (190) is held together with dowel pins pressed through the layers, and is curved to provide pressure for holding the layers together and mechanical rigidity against flexure during writing. The imaging surface disperses light from both the projection system and the light pen. The image receiving system comprises a very large aperture lens (194) for gathering light energy from the light spot created by the light emitting pen (200). The amount of energy from the light spot which reaches the integrating detector (198) is more critical to accurate pen position sensing than the focus of the light spot, so that the aperture of the lens (194) is more important than its imaging quality. The light emitting pen (200) is modified to additionally disperse light at its tip.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved IC card ejecting mechanism including an ejecting lever (8) that turns about two fulcrums, one after another, to eject an IC card from an underlying connector apparatus. Specifically, the ejecting lever first turns about a first fulcrum (22) which is placed close to an ejecting end (18) of the lever to provide a relatively large moment arm and to permit disengagement and initial ejection of the card with a relatively small applied force. The ejecting lever then turns about a second fulcrum (25) which is placed close to the opposite end (20) of the ejecting lever to increase the distance of travel of one end of the card outside a card opening.

Abstract: Completely lining fuel tanks of motor vehicles with a mesh of thin metal foil or metal fibres in order to make the fuel tank explosion-proof and fire-proof is already known. In fuel tanks with flexible walls, however, the problem exists that, with the vibrations occurring whilst driving, the rough mesh structure damages the tank walls and that, due to the individual mesh blocks with which the fuel tank is lined moving against one another, abrasion occurs, as a result of which blockages of the fuel system can occur. In order to solve this problem, it is proposed to provide the mesh blocks with a low-friction coating.

Abstract: The invention relates to an audio amplifier having a volume-dependent tone control which is inexpensive and hardly distorts the audio signal. A filter in the signal path of the audio amplifier determines the tone control at low volumes. The bass tones and possibly treble tones are then amplified to a greater extent than the mid-range tones. With an increasing volume, a continuously controllable amplifier stage increasingly compensates this tone control. To this end a linear feedback path is arranged across this amplifier stage, with a pole in or near the frequency range of the bass and mid-range tones.

Abstract: A sense amplifier for implementing a wide or multiple input NOR gate for receiving a product term of a group of array cells in a programmable logic device (PLD) . Array cells signals which are all normally received by the sense amplifier in a single product term input are instead connected to the sense amplifier in smaller groups of sub-product terms. Each smaller group of sub-product terms is then connected through a transistor cascode amplifier in the sense amplifier to form the single product term enabling a reduction of capacitance and an increase of output speed of the sense amplifier.

Abstract: A programmable fuse element disposed between integrated circuit elements that may be selectively joined during the manufacture or programming of an integrated circuit. The fuse element is a normally open fuse that electrically isolates the integrated circuit elements. The fuse element is comprised of a central area of conductive material insulated from the integrated circuit elements by areas of dielectric material. The integrated circuit elements and the fuse element are disposed on a thin oxide layer covering a semiconductor substrate to prevent those elements from shorting to the semiconductor substrate or to each other via the semiconductor substrate. A protective dielectric layer may be deposited over both the fuse element and the integrated circuit elements during the manufacture of the overall integrated circuit. A laser beam is used to burn through the protective layer and melts both the conductive material and the dielectric material that form the fuse element. As the fuse element melts, the conductive material contacts the integrated circuit elements thereby electrically coupling the integrated circuit elements together creating a low-resistance path.
