Abstract: A novel and improved apparatus for encoding a signal which is bursty in nature. In a code excited linear prediction algorithm, short term redundancies and long term redundancies are removed from digitally sampled speech, and the residual signal which is bursty in nature must be encoded. The residual signal is encoded using three parameters a burst shape index corresponding to a burst shape in a codebook of burst shapes, a burst gain, and a burst location. Together the three parameters specify a waveform to match the residual signal. Further disclosed is a closed loop exhaustive search method by which to find the best match to the residual waveform and a partially open loop method wherein the burst location is determined by an open loop analysis of the residual waveform, and the burst shape and gain parameters are determined in a closed loop fashion. Also disclosed are methods by which a burst vector codebook may be provided which may result in reduced computational complexity in the search algorithms including a recursive burst codebook and a codebook structured in such a way that members of the codebook are linear combinations of other members of the codebook.

Title: Improvements in or relating to internal shoe-drum brakes
IPC: F16D51/48
Filed: 1953-01-15
Abstract: 729,251. Internal shoe-drum brakes. KELSEY-HAYES WHEEL CO. Jan. 15, 1953 [Feb. 8, 1952], No. 1286/53. Class 103 (1). In an internal shoe-drum brake, as in Fig. 1, for a counterclockwise rotation of the brake drum, as indicated by the arrow, thrust is transmitted from one of the shoes 7 to another shoe 8 through a transmission member 12, comprising a plate pivoted on the anchor plate at 16. The shoes engage the plate 12 through rounded and convex inner and outer bearings 20 and 21. Shoe 8 also moves circumferentially as a result of the thrust transmitted by the member 12, and through a similar transmission member, located at the side of the hydraulic actuator cylinder 22, transmits a thrust to the other end of shoe 7. In this way, when the brake is applied by the actuator cylinder 22, the drum torque tends to move the shoes oircumferentially until the force transmitting members cannot swing any further and thereupon act as anchors. In another embodiment, shown in Figs. 7 and 9, the transmission lever members 47 and 48 are pivoted about their inner ends on pins 50 secured to the hub flange 53. When the brake is applied, the pivoting of the lever members by the shoes causes also movement of studs 70 between them which are secured to back-plate 52. The backplate is able to rotate slightly since the bolts 67 securing it to the fixed flange 53 pass through an annular series of arcuate openings 66. Other embodiments are described including one in which there are two hydraulic actuator cylinders.

Abstract: 563,146. Tuning arrangement for oscillation generators. HAZELTINE CORPORATION. Jan. 27, 1943, No. 1416. Convention date, March 3, 1942. [Classes 40 (iii) and 40 (v)] A tunable Lecher wire resonator 2 determining the frequency of an oscillation generator is coupled to an effectively infinite Lecher wire line 15 by means of its distributed reactance and is arranged so that an adjustment of the tuning slider simultaneously adjusts the coupling. As shown, this is done by making the end of the infinite line telescopic and keeping it at a constant angle to the resonant line. The tuning slider has a mica insert 8 to preserve the D.C. insulation between the resonator wires. Details of a particular example are given in .the Specification. The invention is applicable to the transmission or reception of energy over the infinite line. As shown, the infinite line is terminated at the coupling end by a resistance equal to its characteristic impedance, but it may be terminated by a short. circuit where the resonant line has a length of n<#>/2 rather than (2 n-1)<#>/4. Analogous arrangements may be used with open-ended resonant lines.

Abstract: 1337691 Conveying solids in liquids BAYER AG 12 Jan 1972 [19 Jan 1971] 1426/72 Heading F1R [Also in Division B8] A conveyer pipe 1 for the hydraulic conveyance of particulate material has a by-pass tube 4 mounted therein, said tube having a series of inlets 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d and a series of outlets 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d. That portion of the wall of the tube 4 immediately downstream of the inlets and outlets being bent inwardly of the tube to form respective projections 13a-13d and 12a-12d to create constrictions in the tube. The constrictions creating a flow resistance in the tube which is greater than that in the pipe 1 whereby the conveying medium will flow through the pipe. When, however, a blockage 14 occurs the fluid pressure is insufficient to move the material and hence the fluid flows into the by-pass tube 4 via the inlet and outlet 11a, 10a immediately upstream of the blockage. At the vent downstream outlet 10b the fluid is accelerated by the constriction caused by the protection 12b and creates a suction to draw material into the by-pass tube through the inlet 11b until a channel 20 is formed. A similar situation is created at the next downstream outlet and inlet 10c, 11c. However the material in the by-pass tube increases the flow resistance to such an extent that substantially all the fluid pressure in the pipe 1 upstream of the blockage is caused to act on the blockage at the respective channels 20, 22 and whilst insufficient to move the whole blockage will successively move the extreme downstream part situated between adjacent sets of inlets and outlets. The by-pass tube 4 has a free flow area of between 10 per cent and 20 per cent of the free flow area of the conveyer pipe and the constriction caused by the projections 12a-12d reduce the free flow area by between 30 per cent and 90 per cent whilst the constrictions caused by the projections 13a-13d reduce the free flow area by between 10 per cent and 70 per cent.

In the Fig. 1 embodiment the grooves 14 are defined between an inwardly projecting rectangular annulus 12, and an annular bead 13 of triangular section on each side of the annulus. The annulus 12 may be provided inwardly, with an axially extending flange, Fig. 3 (not shown). The ring is formed from a continuously extruded shape corresponding to a section axially through the ring, which is cut into lengths which are each bent longitudinally into the configuration of, and joined into the ring at their ends by one or more staples 41, Fig. 4, leaving a gap 42 for insertion of a screwdriver to prise the coupled containers out of the ring. The coupled containers may contain contents for mixing together to form a treatment for floors, or may comprise food cans coupled at their double end seams 16 for transit, display and/or sale. A string of three of more cans may be coupled together, and two or more such strings arranged in parallel relationship. In making the rings, the shape is extruded, Fig. 2 (not shown) along a cooling table to be cut into the lengths by a guillotine, after which they are bent and the ends stapled either at the same, or different stations.

Patent GB-840402-A (GB)
Title: Cyclic organosilicon compounds
IPC: C08G77/00
Filed: 1958-01-20
Abstract: The invention comprises compounds of the formula <FORM:0840402/IV(a)/1> where R is an alkyl, phenyl or cyclohexyl radical, at least three of which contain 1 to 6 carbon atoms.  The compounds are readily polymerized to siloxanes of unit formula [-Si(R)2CH2CH2(R)2SiO-]. The cyclic compounds are prepared by reacting R2HSiCl with CH2=CHSiR2Cl in the presence of chloroplatinic acid to give ClR2SiCH2CH2SiR2Cl, which is then hydrolysed and the hydrolysate is cracked by heating with an alkali metal hydroxide catalyst.  Reaction of the cyclic compounds with water at room temperature yields monomeric or polymeric disilanols of the formula HO[Si(R)2CH2CH2(R)2SiO]nH, where n is 1 or more, which may be co-condensed with other siloxanes containing silanol groups. Polymerization of the cyclic compounds is achieved by very small amounts of catalyst, e.g. 0.001 to 0.1% of alkali or acid catalysts such as sodium, potassium or lithium hydroxide and sulphuric or trifluoroacetic acid.  They may be copolymerized in the usual way. The polymers vary from liquids to resins and gums.  The examples describe the preparation of compounds of the formula (1) above where the two sets of hydrocarbon radicals are (1) (CH3)2 and (CH3)2; (2) (C6H5)(CH3) and (CH3)2; (3) (C6H5)(CH3) and (C6H5)(CH3); (4) (C6H5)2 and (CHta6H5)2; (5) (CH3)2 and (CH3)(C5H11); (6) (CH3)2 and (CH3)(C12H25).
