Abstract: The invention assumes that the envelope of a decreasing alternating magnetic field for demagnetizing magnetic materials must be larger than can be achieved by conventional oscillating circuits. Accordingly, a gradually decreasing alternating magnetic field having a large decay factor is generated in an oscillating circuit (C1, L1, L2) in whose air-core coil (L1) the material is held. By specifically recharging the capacitor (C1) from a recharging capacitor (C2) by means of a power supply (LS2), the capacitor voltage (U1) is increased and the energy which is reduced by damping is resupplied synchronously with the oscillation process, so that the envelope E(t) of the alternating field is specifically enlarged and the duration of the decaying alternating magnetic field in the air-core coil (C1) is prolonged. <IMAGE>

Title: Spectacle rim
Inventor: HUANG CHIEN-HSING
IPC: G02C5/00
Filed: 1993-09-29
Granted: 1997-04-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to spectacle rims of simple design for mounting spectacle glasses (spectacle lenses). The production of this spectacle rim is performed starting from a single-piece metal or plastic strip (7) which, for example, may be drawn and whose two ends are interconnected. This metal or plastic strip for the production of the rim is designed such that it can be bent into the desired contour when the spectacle glasses are mounted and mounts the spectacle glasses in a reliable manner. The strip (7) has a left-hand section (11) with a ledge (ridge) (8) which is integrally formed at the top and which can be accommodated by a groove in the edge of the spectacle glass. In addition, a right-hand section (12) of the strip (7) is provided which forms the lower part of the spectacle rim. The strip (7) may be bent in various ways, resulting in various contours for the spectacles. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A monolithic interface circuit for use with a linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) position transducer includes a drive circuit for providing an excitation signal of selectable frequency and amplitude to the LVDT primary winding. The interface circuit further includes a decoder responsive to signals induced in the LVDT secondary windings for computing the position p of the LVDT core as a solution to the equation p = K(A-B)/(A+B), where A and B represent the signals induced in the primary winding, and K is a constant scale factor. The decoder includes circuitry for rectifying (54,64) and filtering (56,66) the secondary signals (A,B), a charge balance loop (58,68,70,72,74) responsive to the detected signals for providing a binary signal having a duty cycle representative of B/(A+B), and an output circuit (80,82,86,88,90,92,94) responsive to the binary signal for providing the position output. The decoder provides excellent scale factor stability and linearity and is relatively insensitive to variations in primary drive amplitude. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for the preparation of optically active S-(+)-2-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionic acid (I), by resolution of the racemate through enantioselective hydrolysis of a reactive ester (II) in an organic medium, which hydrolysis is catalysed by an extracellular lipase of microbial origin. The separation of the resulting free acid from the remaining ester is carried out by extraction in basic medium, to leave the S-ester in the organic phase and the R-acid in the aqueous one. Finally, the desired S isomer is obtained either by aqueous hydrolysis of the remaining reactive S-ester, at constant pH, or enzymatically.

Abstract: A very simple and easy-to-use height adjustable apparatus for the shop sector, but also for the domestic sector, is achieved by a locking sleeve (2) which totally or partially surrounds an extending tube (4) which is displaceable relative to a fixed standing tube (5). In this arrangement, the upper and lower faces of the locking sleeve (2) are shaped in such a way that rotation about an axis (1) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the extending tube (4) is possible to such a degree that a wedge- or dome-shaped lug (3) on the inner side of the locking sleeve (2) can slide out of an opening (7) in the extending tube (4) and the locking sleeve (2) can then be displaced along the extending tube (4), the wedge- or dome-shaped lug (3) being integrally moulded on the lower inner side opposite the axis of rotation (1) or on the side of the axis of rotation (1) above the axis of rotation (1). When the extending tube (4) is lifted, the locking sleeve (2) rotates owing to its weight independently about the axis of rotation (1), and the wedge- or dome-shaped lug (3) slides out of the opening (7) in the extending tube (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a center-aligning apparatus for fusiform bread dough pieces such as rolled-up croissant dough pieces (1), including an upstream conveyor (2), and a downstream conveyor (3) located below and adjacent the upstream conveyor. Between the two conveyors (2, 3) and adjacent the upstream conveyor, a pair of concave rollers (4, 4') is arranged. The rolled-up dough piece (1) from the upstream conveyor (2) is deposited on the concave rollers (4, 4') as they rotate, which causes the center of the dough piece to be aligned with the central or widest portion of a gap (G) between the rollers. Also, a pair of shutters (5, 5') is mounted below the concave rollers to receive the dough piece from the rollers and to stably deposit the dough piece on the downstream conveyor (3). This apparatus enables the dough piece to advance in alignment with the central line of the downstream conveyor (3). <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a technique for queuing commands on an input/output controller for a parity drive in a level 4 or level 5 redundant array of inexpensive disk drives, which responds to receipt of a write instruction with appended data by determining a logical block address of a data drive for the appended data and a logical block address of a parity drive for redundant data belonging to a destination stripe of the appended data. If a parity cache entry corresponds to the parity address, a cache hit is deemed to have occurred. Responsive to a cache hit, computation of replacement parity data for the stripe may be done from parity data in cache at a location given by the parity cache entry, data read from the data drive, and the appended data. The newly calculated parity data is then placed in cache. A command is then sent to an input/output controller for the drive where the parity data is located to write the replacement parity data. Serialization of access to the parity data is moved from the disk drive to cache memory, allowing command queuing to be used with the disk drive to preserve optimum available performance of the drive. <IMAGE>

Date May 11, 1994The invention relates to a method for detecting partial discharges occurring in a cable, wherein the cable has an earth screen with a helical structure, comprising the following steps of: arranging at least one detection coil round the cable for detecting electromagnetic pulses travelling along the cable; applying a potential difference between the core and the earth shield of the cable; and analyzing pulses generated by possible partial discharges in the at least one detection coil in order to determine the location and quality of the partial discharge having caused the pulse, wherein the detection coil is adapted to process signals with a frequency higher than 100 MHz. It has been found that with coils comprising only such a limited number of turns the signal detected by the coil is a much better representation of the form of the electromagnetic pulse travelling along the cable.
