Abstract: A keyed lamp assembly includes an electric lamp (10) and a lamp
base (12) secured to the electric lamp for electrical connection
to the lamp (10) and for mounting the lamp in a keyed lamp
fixture. The lamp base (12) includes a lamp base body (20) and at
least one fixed key (32, 34) on the lamp base body. The lamp
assembly further includes a movable key (14) on a key carrier that
is movable to two or more different positions on the lamp base
body (20) during manufacturing. The key carrier is attached to the
lamp base body (20) in one of the positions such that the fixed

Abstract: A method of compressing digital image data, comprising successive data groups of bits, the contents of which are values of pixels of an image, in which method a check is made in a selection step whether a first condition is satisfied which at least stipulates that a data group has the same contents as one or more data groups following thereon. If the first condition is satisfied, said data groups are replaced, in a compression step, by a compression code representing these data groups. Otherwise, in a copying step, only the first data group is replaced by a code consisting of the contents of the data group. The said steps are repeated for the next data groups. The method also comprises an identification step for adding an identification code for characterising the nature of the code, wherein the identification step is carried out only when the compression step is carried out.

Abstract: The rolling mill consists of stands (C1,C2,C3) situated one after the other for the steel strip to (B) pass through. The positions of the rollers in, at least, one of the stands, is modified in real time to compensate for ovalisation of the rollers. The adjustment of the roller positions is made on the basis of an analysis of a signal frequency corresponding to the rollers' rotation. The aim of the adjustment is to obtain a compensation signal which is in proportion to periodic variations in speed. The adjustment of the rollers is made by a compensating unit (P'2,P'3) which is connected to traction measurement detectors (T2,T3) in the form of deflection tensiometers between the stands.

Abstract: A method of forming a thermoactive binder composite product is performed by injecting a hot dry gas to activate the thermoactive binder. In the preferred embodiment, the hot dry gas is air. The method is particularly beneficial as applied to forming thermoplastic composite products and particularly thermoplastic/cellulose composites. Also part of the present invention is a two stage pressing process in which hot gas is injected during the first stage and the press charge is precompressed. The press charge is then placed in a second consolidation press where the hot gas is no longer injected and it is consolidated and cooled. Machinery for practicing the method includes a platen with a platen press which includes upper and lower platens with a plurality of hot air injection jets disposed on the surface of each platen. The platens are spaced apart and surrounded on the sides by an air-permeable containment shell structure to form a compression chamber to hold the base material to be pressed. Other machinery includes a consolidation press.

Abstract: A procedure is described for generation of a local clock signal by means of a digital PLL allowing the PLL to hold the lock even during any microbreaks in the synchronizing signal. The circuit which implements the procedure includes a module counter N (2DIV/N) dividing the local clock frequency in a manner identical to that used for the link. A logic (FF1/2/3; 1,2) presets the beginning of count in phase with the rising fronts of the external synchronism signal (CKRIF) to create a locally synthesized synchronism signal (CKRIF.RIC). A monostable (MONOS) detects the presence of the above mentioned fronts and commands a two-input selector (SEL) to switch to the PLL the external synchronism signal or, in the absence thereof, that synthesized locally. In a variant for PCM line signals the selector is replaced by a gate OR (SOM) and the monostable is missing.

Abstract: A subband audio coder employs perfect/non-perfect reconstruction filters, predictive/non-predictive subband encoding, transient analysis, and psycho-acoustic/minimum mean-square-error (mmse) bit allocation over time, frequency and the multiple audio channels to encode/decode a data stream to generate high fidelity reconstructed audio. The audio coder windows the multi-channel audio signal such that the frame size, i.e. number of bytes, is constrained to lie in a desired range, and formats the encoded data so that the individual subframes can be played back as they are received thereby reducing latency. Furthermore, the audio coder processes the baseband portion (0-24 kHz) of the audio bandwidth for sampling frequencies of 48 kHz and higher with the same encoding/decoding algorithm so that audio coder architecture is future compatible.
