Title: Coin selector for coin-operated machine and error detecting method against deceit in coin insertion
Inventor: KUROSU MAKOTO
IPC: G07D5/00
Filed: 1992-12-16
Abstract: A coin selector has a coin passageway where coins are inserted. A magnetic sensor inspects the coins through the coin passageway, and generates an inspecting signal, which a controller evaluates to generate an acceptant or unacceptant signal responsively. A gate plate responds to the acceptant or unacceptant signal, and provides two chutes selectively with the inspected coins. An accepting chute passes acceptable coins. A returning chute returns unacceptable coins. A photo sensor detects the acceptable coins through the accepting chute, and generates a detecting signal. Counters are adapted to counting, respectively, the acceptant signal in increment and the detecting signal in decrement. The controller adds together two counts of the counters, evaluates a sum of the addition, and generates an error signal in accordance with the sum evaluation. The error signal is utilized for implication of possible deceit or imposture of a player who inserts the coins. <IMAGE>
Patent EP-0554755-A3 (EP)
IPC: H03F1/30
Filed: 1993-01-26
Abstract: When switching over amplifiers, for example signal sources of audio apparatuses, switching voltages and changeover voltage spikes occur which make themselves noticeable as disturbing clicking noises. At least in the case of high-quality audio hi-fi apparatuses, these clicking noises must be suppressed such that they are no longer perceptible. Starting from suppression by purely electronic means, in the case of which it is necessary to accept a limitation with respect to the maximum signal amplitudes to be switched, a circuit arrangement is proposed here which completely eliminates the changeover click, by means of a muting circuit, using purely mechanical switches, for example slide switches. This circuit arrangement can additionally be used in highly varied apparatuses. This includes video and television sets in the entertainment electronics field, as well as medical apparatuses, machine tools, vehicles etc. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0575110-A3 (EP)
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 1993-06-11
Abstract: An apparatus compresses a digital audio input signal to provide 
a compressed output signal. A circuit derives plural spectral 
coefficients from the input signal and groups the spectral coefficients 
into bands. A distributing circuit (309) distributes a total available 
number of quantizing bits (302) between signal spectrum-dependent 
quantizing bits and noise spectrum-dependent quantizing bits. A 
circuit (303) determines a magnitude for each band, and, in response 
thereto, allocates the signal spectrum-dependent quantizing bits among 
the bands. This allocates (304) to each band a number of signal 
spectrum-dependent quantizing bits for quantizing each spectral 
coefficient in the band. A circuit determines a subjectively-allowable 
noise spectrum and, in response thereto, allocates (305) the noise 
spectrum-dependent quantizing bits among the bands. This allocates to 
each band a number of noise spectrum-dependent quantizing bits for 
quantizing each spectral coefficient in the band. A quantizing circuit 
quantizes the spectral coefficients in each band using a total number 
of quantizing bits determined by summing the number of signal spectrum-dependent 
quantizing bits allocated to the band and the number of noise 
spectrum-dependent quantizing bits allocated to the band. The 
distribution circuit (309) sets the distribution ratio in response to 
a circuit (308) that calculates the smoothness of the spectrum of the 
input signal. In this manner, optimum quantizing for both musical 
signals and single sine wave signals are given by a single processing 
operation, without the need to repeatedly adjust the quantizing bit 
allocation.

(111), and the agreement or recent schedule data is
displayed in the display unit (2), so that the information
apt to be forgotten can be confirmed at a kind of turning
point of turning off the power supply.

catheter system (10) for measuring, and delivering to an 
external monitor (230) a signal representative of, the pressure 
in the uterus of a woman in labor. The system has a 
disposable catheter (50) with an affixed asymmetric tip (52). A 
disposable, slotted, C-shaped introducer (120) engages and 
positions the catheter. A reusable monitor cable (220) has a 
second connector (104) (which engages a first connector on the 
end of the catheter) on one end and a monitor connector 
(which engages the monitor) on its opposite end; the 
monitor cable transmits electrical signals from the first 
connector to the monitor. A test member (240) is proximate the 
monitor connector on the monitor cable. The test member 
includes test circuitry assuring that the monitor cable, 
the second connector, and the monitor connector are

Abstract: An antenna system (11), is comprised of a plurality of
independently constructed and operated antenna units, upon
which are mounted a plurality of transmit and receive antenna
pairs. This provides a means for the antenna system (11) to be
arranged to provide substantially hemispherical radio coverage.
By adjusting the phase of each version of a radio signal to be
transmitted or received, the signal may be formed into a beam,
according to the known technique of directional beam forming,
providing the antenna system with directional gain. Furthermore,
using a plurality of transmit and receive antenna pairs reduces
the energy transmitted by each transmit antenna alone to a level
which permits a branch line coupler to be sufficient to
orthogonally polarise the transmitted and received radio signals,
negating the requirement for a duplexing filter for duplex
operation.

Abstract: A method for erasing a Flash EPROM array (AR) includes
applying a series of erase pulses to all of the subarrays
(S1,S2, etc.) of a Flash EPROM array (AR) simultaneously.
Between each erase pulse, the memory cells (10) of each subarray
(S1,S2, etc.) are simultaneously checked one row at a time and
one column position at a time, to see whether or not any cell
(10) is over-erased. If, at any time during the method a cell
(10) is found to be over-erased, the over-erased condition is
corrected and the erase procedure continues, but with erase
pulses applied only to those subarrays (S1,S2, etc.) having non-erased
memory cells (10) as in prior-art subarray erase
procedures. Under almost all circumstances, the method of this
invention decreases over-all erase time.
