Abstract: Un mécanisme de direction assistée hydrostatique à répartition de puissance en fonction de la charge présente, pour la commande d'une pompe à cylindrée variable (28), un diaphragme (35) pour la production d'une différence de pression. Un dispositif à soupape de commande (18) renferme, dans un alésage (14) de la soupape, un piston mobile (15). Le diaphragme (35) est formé entre la section (26) où débouche une conduite sous pression (27) dans l'alésage (14) et un épaulement central (21) profilé sur le piston (15), et présente une section variable en fonction de la position de réglage du dispositif à soupape de commande (18). La section du diaphragme (35) présente alors une valeur minimale, en position neutre intermédiaire du dispositif à soupape de commande (18) et s'agrandit dans les deux directions. En avant du diaphragme (35) est branché un canal de dérivation (50) et, en arrière de ce diaphragme, un tronçon (37) d'une conduite sous pression comportant un étranglement (54). Dans la conduite de dérivation (50) sont prévus une résistance se présentant sous la forme d'une soupape de réduction (53) et un étranglement (55). La soupape de réduction (53) s'ouvre à peu près au niveau de la pression de réglage de la pompe (28). Il s'ensuit qu'il ne s'écoule plus que le courant de réglage par le diaphragme (35), tandis que le courant de fluide principal parvient, par la conduite de dérivation (50), à un moteur de commande de direction (20). Le dispositif à soupape de commande est d'un faible encombrement et les résistances à l'écoulement demeurent faibles.

Abstract: An edge enhancement method and apparatus for dot matrix devices are disclosed wherein a group of gradient mask matrices (174) are applied to a current matrix (172), wherein a TBAP (To Be Adjusted Pixel) is surrounded by neighboring pixels, to determine if the TBAP is at a location where a change of brightness occurs. From this matrix operation, a conclusion is derived as to the existence or non-existence of an edge and the direction of the brightness change. The current matrix (172) and a predetermined number of previously evaluated and yet to be evaluated pixels (366, 367) are then compared to a set of reference bit patterns which depict possible segment changes to be corrected. If the result indicates that the TBAP is on an edge of a changing edge segment, a corresponding code will be generated to modify the TBAP to enhance the smoothness of a segment transition. In the case of an electrophotographic printing machine, the specific code will change either the location or the size of the TBAP; whereas in the case of a monochrome screen display, the specific code will change the intensity of the TBAP <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device for measuring fluid flow in a flow channel has a probe member which is arranged symmetrically in the flow channel with respect to the longitudinal central axis thereof and has at least two edges extending essentially perpendicular to the flow direction. A measurement channel which is connected to the fluid flow via connecting channels and extends essentially perpendicular to the flow direction is formed in the probe element. Provided in the measurement channel is an optical measuring fibre which is connected to a detecting device. The detecting device can be used to detect the changes in the physical characteristics of the measuring fibre that are caused by pressure fluctuations of the fluid due to eddies. In order to achieve a high measurement sensitivity and a structure of simple design, the measuring fibre extends freely through the measurement channel. In a preferred embodiment, an optical reference fibre which can detect interfering oscillations can be arranged in an additional reference channel that is not connected to the fluid. <IMAGE>
