Abstract: A variable control mechanism for a turbine engine, in particular an exhaust gas turbine of a turbocharger, with a ring of guide blades arranged concentrically around a rotor axle and pivoting around pivot axles between end limits. The pivot axles are arranged in the forward areas associated with the inflow edges of the guide blades; one of the end limits being variable by means of an adjusting ring or the like. Clearance and impact losses are incurred depending on the prevailing setting of the guide blades. The invention provides a guide mechanism which can be constructed inexpensively and which reduces clearance and impact losses. The guide blades are arranged such that they can pivot freely within an angular setting range defined by the end limits. In case of a low load the guide blades pivot freely within the predetermined end limits, and with rising loads they abut against the variable end limit.

Abstract: An integrable semiconductor circuit for a multi-stage frequency divider having a number of master-slave flip-flop cells constructed in current mode logic forming the individual divider stages which are connected in series to a supply voltage and which are accordingly at different levels of the supply voltage has an input stage to which an input signal at an input frequency, and the inverse thereof, are supplied. The input stage is in the form of a differential amplifier having two identical transistors which are connected to a constant current source. The differential amplifier forms the first divider stage, that is, the first master-slave flip-flop, in combination with a first network including a number of transistors and load resistors. The further divided stages do not require an input circuit, therefore each subsequent stage includes only a network corresponding to the network of the first stage. The outputs of the slave portion of the first network respectively control one of the two inputs of the second network (second divider stage) and so on for each subsequent divider stage. The outputs of the master portion are connected through respective load resistors through respective paths leading to the supply voltage external of the networks. The voltage drop of each path is matched to the voltage drop within the chain of networks leading to the supply voltage.

Abstract: An apparatus for assisting the practice of the mother tongue or a foreign language, with a view to total assimilation thereof, comprises a standard signal generator constituted by a mobile support of sound recordings on which are previously recorded, independently of one another, blocks of phrases or words, expressed in the language to be assimilated by a subject. A reader of these blocks of information emits the standard signals. An analysis and comparison circuit compares a standard signal and a vocal signal which corresponds to the word pronounced by the user, based on at least one parameter. When the vocal signal is not within a predetermined tolerance of the standard signal, the standard signal is repeated. If the vocal signal is within the tolerance, the next standard signal is generated. In this way, the user repeats each word until he pronounces it correctly.
