Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for dosing and mixing multicomponent material, especially dental fillings based on dental cements, alloy and composites, as well as derivatives thereof. For individual and quick mixing of pulp protection compositions, fillings and cements which differ in their substance composition, in consistency and in colour, the invention proposes a solution which ensures, on the one hand, individual dosing and intensive mixing of the material components and utilises, on the other hand, the advantages of a capsule mixing and application system. The data specific for the items to be mixed and specified on code cards are entered in a computer for process control of a dosing and mixing unit; on the basis of these specified data the maximum permissible deviations from predetermined limit values and the optimum mixing time and mixing power are determined; the data thus obtained are transformed into control signals and used for filling a one-compartment mixing capsule with the respective pulverulent and liquid material components from storage dispensers and, after insertion of the filled and sealed mixing capsule into a vibrational mixer, for the intensive mixing of the components. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the generation of a signal flag in response to illegal channel code patterns from an information channel. The signal flag may typically be used as an erasure flag by a subsequent error correction decoder. This erasure flag is indicative of a data error position which can then be fed into a utilization circuit such as an error correction logic for performance improvement. In particular, a Miller-squared channel code format decoder in accordance with the present invention can provide error position information, thereby enhancing error correction power, such as that of a Reed-Solomon error correction code.

Abstract: A series of hard disk drives (10) are secured atop molded plastic support trays (38) slidably and removably received in opposing guide channel member (106) pairs snap-fitted into opposite side walls (24,26) of a sheet metal cage (16) structure externally used in conjunction with a file server or other computer device. Snap-fitted into rear end portions of the trays are small printed circuit boards (60) that are insertable into hot plug sockets (32) at the rear of the cage. Forwardly projecting guard plates (34) on the rear end of the cage block manual access to the board/socket interface, and the surface mounted grounding leads (66) on the board extend rearwardly beyond its signal leads (66) to enhance grounding safety during disk drive installation and removal. At the front end of each tray is a vertical support plate (48) upon which LED indicating lights (50) are conveniently mounted for the associated disk drive. Each guide channel member (106) has a metal grounding clip portion (154) that is pressed against the adjacent cage wall and is contacted by a grounding screw (56) on the disk drive as the drive is slid into the housing, the grounding screw also functioning to prevent inadvertent upside-down installation of the drive. To assist in installing and removing each disk drive, its associated support tray is provided at its front corners with pivotable ejection latch members (166) removably secured thereto using a molded connection structure that eliminates the requirement for attachment screws or rivets.

Abstract: A plurality of media access control drivers are coupled to and provide a respective channel to connect a computer and the switched network. Each media access control driver has a first mode in which a connection is established in the switched network and a second mode in which the local area network protocol is passed over the switched network. The media access control drivers may also be placed in a third and fourth mode which allow communication in an unformatted and non-LAN based protocol. The architecture also includes at least one port connection manager which manages one of the channels when the respective media access control driver is in the first mode and a connection manager to manage a status of the connection. The media access control drivers are coupled to a protocol driver to send messages in the local area network protocol when the media access control drivers are in the second mode. Each of the media access control drivers include a table of parameters which describe the channel and a set of entry points to the channel. A protocol manager catalogs the tables for use by other modules.

Abstract: A broadband ultrasonic transducer has a layer of piezoelectric material (4) sandwiched between respective layers of backing (10) and matching material (12). The piezoelectric element (4) is coupled to a pair of electrical terminals (6,8) , across which a varying voltage is produced. The piezoelectric layer (4) has a structure such that in response to the varying voltage, a forward-propagating wave emanating from its back surface (18) does not destructively interfere with a forward-propagating wave emanating from its front surface (20) when the frequency of the waves is an even multiple of the half-wave frequency of the particular piezoelectric layer (4). This effect can be attained by roughening the back surface (18) of the piezoelectric layer (4) or by spatially varying the piezoelectric coupling in the thickness direction in a portion of the piezoelectric layer (4) which is proximate to the back surface (18).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for preventing a textural deformation (swim) which has conventionally occurred are obtained. For this purpose, in texture mapping for a polygon on a three-dimensional space, values of depth information Z are virtually given to all vertex information for two-dimensional texture coordinates to define texture data on a three-dimensional space, and the texture data are virtually arranged on the polygon space (visual point coordinates). Linear transform between each vertex of the polygon and a corresponding vertex of the texture data is performed, and a coordinate transform process is performed to obtain identical sizes and identical coordinate values between the polygon and the texture data. Using the linear transform coefficients and the depth value Z, each pixel on the polygon is linearly transformed, and the inverse transform for obtaining the coordinate values of the corresponding texture data is performed.

Abstract: A method of signal analysis for establishing display scaling and stable triggering for digital oscilloscopes employs amplitude and time histograms to analyze an input signal and establish the required conditions. An amplitude histogram analysis method is first used to determine the minimum and maximum amplitude levels of the signal, and then a time histogram analysis method is used to determine the predominant time intervals occurring in the input signal. From these two analyses, vertical gain adjustments and time base settings adjustments may be made either manually or automatically, and triggering levels established to provide a stable, usable display.

Abstract: A tobacco expansion method is provided whereby cured tobacco is first moistened with a humectant solution, as is conventional in the industry, to increase the resident liquids thereof. Next, the prepared tobacco in shredded form is placed in a sealed chamber and the chamber evacuated to vaporize a portion of the resident liquids. Next, ethyl alcohol vapor is allowed to enter the pressure chamber below 70 mm (Hg) absolute to prevent a water-ethyl alcohol azeotrope from forming. Thereafter, a hydrocarbon vapor, such as n-pentane vapor, is directed into the chamber and the pressure restored to atmospheric. The n-pentane vapor diffuses into the cellular structure of the tobacco with the assistance of the ethyl alcohol, whereafter the tobacco is heated and the n-pentane and ethyl alcohol acts as a propellant to expand the tobacco.
