Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB91/00683 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 3, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 3, 1992 PCT Filed Apr. 30, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO91/17539 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 14, 1991.During assembly of one or more stacks of piezoelectric drive elements along the major axis of the elliptical shell (30) of flextensional transducer the conventional technique is to apply pressure along the minor axis of the shell (30), insert the stacks together with pre-tensioning wedges, and then release the minor axis pressure. The invention provides a method for assembly flextensional transducers by applying pressure uniformly over the entire outer surface of the elliptical shell (30) so as to extend the major axis of the shell (30); inserting and locating the stack(s) within the shell; and removing the pressure. The shell (30) inserted within the enclosure (34) such that access to its interior is available for insertion of the piezoelectric stacks and sliding movement of the shell (30) relative to the enclosure (34) is possible.

Abstract: An apparatus for facilitating communications between an analog device and a digital device comprising a transmit circuit for processing outgoing signals, a receive circuit for processing incoming signals, and a control circuit for controlling the transmit circuit and the receive circuit. The transmit circuit includes transmit attenuators for attenuating the outgoing signals as they pass through the transmit circuit, and an analog-to-digital conversion circuit for converting analog signals to digital signals. The receive circuit includes receive attenuators for attenuating the incoming signals as they pass through the receive circuit and a digital-to-analog conversion circuit for converting digital signals to analog signals. Each of the transmit attenuators and the receive attenuators is digitally adjustable by the control circuit. The control circuit receives sensed outgoing signals from the transmit circuit and sensed incoming signals from the receive circuit and effects a comparison of the sensed outgoing and incoming signals to determine whether the apparatus is transmitting or receiving. The control circuit digitally adjusts the transmit attenuators and the receive attenuators to increase signal attenuation in the receive circuit and reduce signal attenuation in the transmit circuit when the apparatus is transmitting, and to increase signal attenuation in the transmit circuit and decrease signal attenuation in the receive circuit when the apparatus is receiving.

Abstract: A photographing apparatus for microscopes is constructed so that a simultaneous observation is made by overlapping an image of a sample formed by transmitted illumination with that formed by reflected fluorescence, in which signals for designating the simultaneous observation at once cause a second shutter for the transmitted illumination to be closed and a first shutter for the reflected fluorescence to be opened, the brightness of the sample image formed by the reflected fluorescence is measured by a light-detecting element disposed in an optical path for observation, and after a light-adjusting member for the transmitted illumination is controlled so that, based on data outputted from a memory device corresponding to a measured value, the brightness of the sample image by the transmitted illumination in the simultaneous observation is balanced with that of the sample image by the reflected fluorescence, the second shutter is opened. Thus, this photographing apparatus has advantages that whenever the microscopy is switched, an operator can dispense with the need for a fine adjustment of the amount of transmitted illumination light, with the resultant ease of operation, the balance adjustment of brightness in switching is made in a short time, and the bleaching of fluorescence of the sample can be suppressed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An optical amplifier comprises an erbium-doped, silica-based optical fibre (6) coupled to a second optical waveguide, comprising a fibre (4) having a D-shaped cross-section. The second optical waveguide (4) has an overlaid grating (10) formed on a silica wafer (9) which is constructed and configured so that the waveguide filter provides loss in transmission substantially at the wavelength of the gain peak of the amplifier. The resonant reflection wavelength is chosen to be substantially equal to, or greater than, the wavelength of the gain peak of the amplified gain spectrum. Transmission losses at wavelengths shorter than the resonant reflection wavelength of the grating act to reduce the gain peak thereby flattening the gain spectrum of the amplifier so providing a larger useful gain bandwidth for optical fibre systems having a cascade of such fibre amplifiers.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device in air-suspended trucks to adjust the level of the truck loading plane. The device consists of a valve (8) which is fixedly secured to the loading plane and is in communication with a pair of lifting bellows (4, 5) incorporated in the air-suspension mechanism. The valve is mechanically connected to one of the wheel axles (2) of the vehicle by way of an articulated arm (9) which is adapted to sense a change of level between the loading plane and the wheel axle (2). In response to changes of the loading plane level, the articulated arm (9) opens the valve (8), said valve conducting pressurized air to or from the lifting bellows (4, 5) respectively for the purpose of adjusting the level of the loading plane. The device comprises a pivotal arm (10) which is arranged to control the opening/closing mechanism of the valve (8). At one of its ends the pivotal arm (10) is hingedly connected to the articulated arm (9) and at its opposite end it is connected to a control mechanism (11). With the aid of said mechanism (11) the pivotal arm (10) may be shifted between two end positions in which the valve (8) is in a maximum open condition for respectively supply of pressurized air and venting of pressurized air from the lifting bellows (4, 5) via an intermediate position in which the valve (8) is closed.

Abstract: An improvement for reducing proximity effects comprised of additional lines, referred to as intensity leveling bars, into the mask pattern. The leveling bars perform the function of adjusting the edge intensity gradients of isolated edges in the mask pattern, to match the edge intensity gradients of densely packed edges. Leveling bars are placed parallel to isolated edges such that intensity gradient leveling occurs on all isolated edges of the mask pattern. In addition, the leveling bars are designed to have a width significantly less than the resolution of the exposure tool. Therefore, leveling bars that are present in the mask pattern produce resist patterns that completely developed away when a nominal exposure energy is utilized during exposure of photoresist.

Inside a third caisson (30,32) the products are transferred towards a first sealed chamber (40) and injected with carbonic gas or helium. The products are weighed and a determined weight is placed in flexible or rigid unclosed packages (45). The packages are transferred successively into a second sealed chamber (60). In the second chamber the packages are injected with steam whilst under vacuum. Steam injection is stopped and a mixture of between 40% and 90% nitrogen, between 60% and 10% carbonic gas and between 1% and 10% oxygen is injected and the packages sealed.
