Title: Method and apparatus for unloading slide projector trays
IPC: B07C5/36
Filed: 1988-05-25
Granted: 1992-08-26
Abstract: A computer-controlled slide projector tray unloader for use with a slide archival storage system. A slide cartridge (10) is placed below a slide gate (7). A tray (9) is held above the slide gate such one of the compartments coincides with the slide gate. A transporting mechanism (30) at the slide gate (7) lowers a slide from the selected one compartment of the tray such that the slide drops into the cartridge (10). An advance mechanism (24:28) is provided for advancing the tray to position a particular compartment to coincide with the slide gate. A Tray Table maintained by software associates a unique location number for each one of the plurality of compartments of the tray with a previously assigned serial number, each serial number identifying a slide stored in a compartment of the tray. A current location number generator operative in connection with the advancing mechanism generates a current location number which represents the unique location number of the slide compartment currently coinciding with the slide gate (7). The tray is advanced until the generated location number matches the location number in the Tray Table corresponding to the desired slide.

Title: Catalytic oxidation reactor for gaseous mixtures
IPC: H01M10/52
Filed: 1988-08-11
Granted: 1991-12-27
Abstract: A catalytic oxidation reactor (10) for gaseous mixtures composed of oxygen and at least one combustible gas in contact therewith comprises a reactor (12) in communication with a coolant contained in a cooling element (21). A first gas-permeable layer (18) containing a catalyst (19) for the oxidation reaction is arranged in the reactor (12). On the side facing the gaseous mixture, the first layer (18) has a second gas-permeable layer (20) and on the other side a third layer (17) impermeable to gases and liquids and in thermal contact with the coolant. The reactor therefore operates on the countercurrent principle (arrows 23, 24).

Abstract: Specific binding assays are disclosed which utilize a sensitizer as a label. Such sensitizers include any moiety which, when stimulated by "excitation" with radiation of one or more wavelengths or other chemical or physical stimulus (e.g., electron transfer, electrolysis, electroluminescence or energy transfer), will achieve an excited state which (a) upon interaction with molecular oxygen will produce singlet molecular oxygen, or (b) upon interaction with a leucodye will assume a reduced form which can then be returned to its original unexcited state by interaction with molecular oxygen resulting in the production of hydrogen peroxide. Either interaction with the excited sensitizer will, with the addition of other reagents, produce a detectable signal.

Title: Process for the production of a thermoplastic pipe having a spiral reinforcement
IPC: B29C53/78

Granted: 1993-05-05
Abstract: Process for the production of a thermoplastic pipe having a spiral reinforcement, in which first of all a core pipe is extruded and at least one drawn monofilament of reinforcing plastic is wound spirally around it in at least one layer. The core pipe is passed at a predetermined translatory rate through at least one die ring rotating around the core pipe at a predetermined angular speed, which die ring has at least one spinning nozzle for the monofilament and is connected to an extruder for the reinforcing plastic. The monofilament is cooled on its way to the core pipe and is drawn by virtue of a difference between the discharge rate of the reinforcing plastic from the spinning nozzle and the winding rate of the monofilament onto the core pipe. The drawn monofilament is wound onto the core pipe for spiral reinforcement.

Abstract: A time division duplex transceiver incorporating a dual conversion superheterodyne receiver, and in which the first receiver local oscillator (6) doubles as the frequency source for the transmitter. The oscillator (6) is a voltage controlled oscillator VCO forming part of a mixer-type phase locked loop (21). Frequency deviation in the loop is achieved by mixing the VCO output with a selected harmonic of the output of the second receiver local oscillator (11). The reference oscillator is a crystal controlled oscillator (41) whose output is switched as between transmit mode and receive mode at a switch (55) before being passed to the loop phase detector (28). The transceiver is able to rapidly and repeatedly alternate beween transmit and receive modes and is thus well suited to time division multiplex operation.

Abstract: One aspect of the present invention relates to enabling rotational flux conduction through magnetic film devices by creating a magnetic film layer with anisotropy perpendicular to the plane of the film layer, the film deposited in sufficient thickness so that there is a rest state rotational conduction path in the plane of the film layer. Another aspect of the invention is to provide for flux spreading in a magnetic device having perpendicular anisotropy. One feature of the present invention enables forming perpendicularly oriented central domains in a magnetic device so that the path for conduction of signal flux by rotation remains open even for very narrow signal flux paths. Another feature of the invention is to orient at rest domain states of a magnetic device pole (or poles) perpendicular to two desired in-plane rotational flux travel directions. Another feature of the invention is to orient edge domains in this type of magnetic device into a plane where their relative widths do not impact substantially on rotational flux flow through the device for narrow track heads. A preferred embodiment of the present invention includes at least one pole of a magnetic device, formed on a substrate, having a preferred at rest pole domain orientation perpendicular to the substrate plane.

Le procédé consiste à diviser les données de l'unité de correction de signaux d'enregistrement en N (nombre entier égal ou supérieur à 2) données, et à diviser toutes les pistes de données en plusieurs nombres, cette étape affectant les données divisées à N pistes de données partielles qui sont avoisinantes parmi les pistes de données, les parties divisées faisant office de pistes de données partielles, afin d'enregistrer les données sur un support d'enregistrement. Par rapport au procédé d'enregistrement usuel, les signaux ainsi reproduits présentent moins de détériorations, en ce qui concerne l'opération de correction, même si cette dernière s'effectue avec une déviation par rapport à la configuration de pistes sur lesquelles les données ont déjà été enregistrées, à la suite du manque de linéarité des pistes, de la déviation de hauteur de la tête et des erreurs d'alignement pendant la reproduction, défauts provoqués par une précision mécanique insuffisante.

Abstract: A description is given of a method and a device for measuring the alcohol content of the damping liquid in a damping device of an offset printing machine, a gas mixture containing air, water vapour and combustible alcohol vapour being produced from the damping liquid. The proportion of alcohol vapour in said gas mixture can be determined in a suitable measuring apparatus, and this in turn yields the alcohol content of the damping liquid. This method of measurement is accordingly based on the principle that the alcohol content of the gas mixture is proportional to the alcohol content of the damping liquid. According to the invention, air not containing proportions of combustible alcohol vapour is passed from time to time through the measuring apparatus to enable the measuring apparatus to be zeroed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention concerns a circuitry for widening the power control range of radio telephone. A radio frequency signal is amplified in a controllable power amplifier (1). According to the invention, after the amplifier a controllable switch (4) is connected, which, while in a first state, does not substantially attenuate the RF power emitted transmitted from the power amplifier (1). The first power control range of the transmitter is thus produced. When the switch (4) is in a second state, it directs part of the RF power transmitted from the power amplifier (1) to a resistive element (R1) and permits part of the RF power to be transmitted to the output (RFout) of the transmitter. A second power control range is produced in this manner.
