Patent EP-0359809-B1 (EP)
Inventor: ZURAWSKI JOHN HENRY
IPC: G06F7/50

Abstract: Un procédé et un appareil servent à prévoir le nombre de bits qui doivent être pris en considération afin de normaliser le résultat d'une addition ou d'une soustraction à virgule flottante. Ils utilisent un additionneur/soustracteur (34) à virgule flottante de basse précision, un codeur de priorité (23) que détermine la position du bit non-zéro le plus significatif afin de générer la quantité de normalisation et une logique de pré-arrondi (18) qui pré-décale un bit d'arrondi en sens opposé à la normalisation. Le procédé et l'appareil fonctionnent en parallèle avec un additionneur (33) à virgule flottante de haute précision, ce qui rend superflus dans la plupart des cas un calcul de précision absolue de normalisation de la virgule flottante et un calcul d'arrondi. La quantité de normalisation requise pour une addition/soustraction à virgule flottante de basse précision est calculée avant le début de l'étape d'addition/soustraction à virgule flottante de haute précision. En outre, la logique de pré-arrondi fournit un bit de report à l'additionneur/soustracteur de précision absolue, ce qui économise le temps associé à une addition de bit d'arrondi de précision absolue.

Title: Process for compensating a phase and amplitude cycle between a multi-phase actual and set value and circuit for implementing the process
Inventor: HUEGEL HARALD
IPC: H02P21/06
Filed: 1989-05-31
Granted: 1994-01-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for compensating a phase and amplitude cycle between a multi-phase set and actual value (iRw, iSw, iTw and iRx, iSx, iTx) whereby first the quantity set value (|iw|) or the quantity actual value (|ix|) and the angular set value (εw) or the angular actual value (εx) of the set or actual value vector (iw or ix) is found and then by quantity and phase a quantity setting (|i¿wxy?|) and an angular setting (εwxy) are generated from a quantity difference (|iw|) - |iw|) and an angular difference (εw - εx) which by quantity and phase are added to the output values (|iw|, εw) of the set value vector computer (26), whereby this quantity and phase sum (|iKw|, εKw) is converted into a multi-phase, compensated set value (iRKw, iSKw, iTKw). The invention also relates to a circuit for implementing the process. It is thus possible for the phase and amplitude cycle to be compensated between a multi-phase set and actual value (iRw, iSw, iTw and iRx, iSx, iTx) despite the fact that the phase and amplitude cycle of the transmission behaviour dependent on an interference quantity (Mz) depends on a control range.

Title: Flex guide for electric lawn mowers
IPC: A01D34/82
Filed: 1990-01-04
Granted: 1992-11-25
Abstract: In a cable guide for electric lawnmowers with a horizontally displaceable guide hanger which guides a cable holder and which is connected to a transverse strut fixed to the two inclined spars of the handlebar, the length of the transverse strut (6) corresponds to the distance between the spars (1, 2) and serves as a guide for a sliding piece (5). The guide hanger (7) is designed as an elongate rectangle, the upper interrupted side of which is connected firmly to the sliding piece. The sliding piece is displaceable easily and without tilting as a result of a play between the sliding piece and transverse strut. The width of the guide hanger is such that it can be positioned between a central position, in which it does not project beyond either of the spars, and two lateral positions, in each of which it projects beyond one of the spars. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Density level of a reference printed image as a standard sample is detected, R-G-B spectrophotometrically for a color printed matter, and the result is stored, this previously inputted reference image information is taken out from a reference memory and differentiated by Sober operation into the second derivative, the processed image information is compared with a setting value from a setting device to two-dimensionally detect a sharp density changing area in the printed pattern, and the result is stored in an edge memory. On the other hand, when a printed sheet is transported, the printed pattern is detected, by a R-G-B spectral light receiving device for a color printed matter, to determine the density level, and the inspection image information is compared with a switching setting value according to an edge signal for a large change in density of printed pattern from the edge memory to judge the quality of the print. <IMAGE>

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un élément de circuit optique du type guide d'ondes, qui est équipé d'un coupleur directionnel faisant varier l'intensité de la lumière entre deux guides d'ondes et qui est utilisé comme commutateur optique indépendant de la polarisation ou comme filtre de dérivation de lumière variable pour la communication par fibres optiques, etc. La longueur de la partie de couplage des deux guides d'ondes (2, 3) est, dans le cas d'une utilisation en mode TE (transversal électrique), égale à trois fois la longueur de couplage complète du mode TE. Dans le cas d'une utilisation en mode TM (transversal magnétique), la longueur est quasiment égale à la longueur de couplage complète du mode TM. Des électrodes (4 et 5), divisées chacune en trois parties, forment des électrodes Δβ inversées dans lesquelles la direction du champ électrique est inversée alternativement. Ainsi, l'effet de confinement de la lumière dans les guides d'ondes est amélioré et la tension d'attaque pour la commutation optique est basse. Des caractéristiques d'élément optimales sont obtenues en fonction du rapport de variations des constantes de propagation des modes TE et TM du coupleur directionnel ainsi fabriqué.

Title: A method of testing for a substance on a solid surface  using a swab stick
Inventor: STONE MARCIA J

Granted: 1997-05-21
Abstract: A swab (10) is impregnated with a test reagent such that a test for a specific substance can be effected by rubbing the impregnated swab over the surface to be tested and then viewing the swab for a reagent reaction. A method for testing for a metal includes impregnating a swab with a reagent, such as, for example, a rhodizonate dye reagent when testing for lead, and rubbing the swab over a surface suspected of containing the metal. If a metal is present in the surface, a reaction with the metal produces an easily detectable color on the swab tip.
