Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'afficher des paramètres de fonctionnement analogiques sur un écran. Un générateur de caractère est piloté de manière à fournir un signal de visualisation, composé d'un nombre de caractères qui est approximativement proportionnel au niveau et/ou au nombre d'incréments ajustés du paramètre de fonctionnement associé au signal d'affichage. Un caractère de couleur et/ou un caractère de forme déterminée sont associés à une valeur d'ajustement d'un paramètre de fonctionnement analogique et sont affichés à l'écran lors de l'ajustement du paramètre de fonctionnement à une valeur d'ajustement. Les caractères de couleur et/ou les formes de caractères affichés de valeurs d'ajustement successives se différencient. L'invention concerne en outre un dispositif de présentation sur écran approprié.

Abstract: The lower shoe construction is designed especially for safety shoes. The heel includes an energy absorber (16) to protect against impulse- or mechanical shock injuries in the heel or ankle regions. The device has a stiff, elastic deformation characteristic, with a force/distance function having a steeply-rising onset and subsequently degressive form. Preferably, the energy absorbent material is an insert embedded in a soft elastic substance, especially polyurethane, used in the sole construction. The insert is hollow and made of two parts, joined together. It may be made in an injected plastic with hardness of 60-70 Shore-D, using e.g. polyamide, polypropylene and/or polyoxymethylene.

Abstract: Closure cap for a vessel containing reagents has a closable cover with an angled and bistable hinge to give an opening action in a side and upwards swing movement. The lid has one or more structures (4) to be used by an apparatus to open and close the cap cover. The cap (1) has one or more centering units (5), to fix the position of the reagent vessel in the analysis apparatus. In an Independent claim the indicating reagent is taken from the vessel by a pipette, and the cover is opened and closed for the pipette access. After each reagent extraction, the pipette is cleaned in a washing station. Preferred Features: The cover is opened and closed by a mechanical system. The cover has a projection which, in the closed position, engages in a recess as a ratchet lock, and gives a pressure sealing between the cover and the upper edge of the reagent vessel. The cover has an inner sealing insert, of an elastic material, with contours to hold it axially in the cap. It has sealing lips between the cap and the cover and between the cap and the opening into the vessel. The sealing insert has structures (8) within the cap, to allow cap rotation on the reagent vessel, and give an effective seal with reagent vessels having openings of different shapes. The angled hinge at the cap (1) secures the cover in the open and closed positions. The cap (1) has a marking such as a barcode to show a given cap orientation on the vessel. The reagent vessels for a given test have caps of the same color. The cap is made of one or more thermoplastics.

Abstract: An improved multiband audio compressor is well behaved for both wide band and narrow band signals, and shows no undesirable artifacts at filter crossover frequencies. The compressor includes a heavily overlapped filter bank, which is the heart of the present invention. The filter bank filters the input signal into a number of heavily overlapping frequency bands. Sufficient overlapping of the frequency bands reduces the ripple in the frequency response, given a slowly swept sine wave input signal, to below about 2 dB, 1 dB, or even 0.5 dB or less with increasing amount of overlap in the bands. Each band is fed into a power estimator, which integrates the power of the band and generates a power signal. Each power signal is passed to a dynamic range compression gain calculation block, which calculates a gain based upon the power signal. Each band is multiplied by its respective gain in order to generate scaled bands. The scaled bands are then summed to generate an output signal.

Abstract: An anti-backlash mechanism is described in the form of a pair of nuts or nut halves with internal threads complementary to the threads on a lead screw. The mechanism is traslated by rotation of the screw. One of the nuts has an outer cantilevered wall with inner gear teeth which engage outer gear teeth on the other nut. Rotation of one nut with respect to the other nut tightens or loosens an abutting frictional rotation-opposing resistance of an elastomeric washer compressed between the two nuts. The compressed washer exerts a bias force against the nuts opposing axial forces exerted by the lead screw against the flanks of the nut threads.
