Patent EP-0441386-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TAKAHASHI YOSHIKATSU C O MITSU
IPC: G05B19/4093
Filed: 1991-02-07
Abstract: A method of controlling a multi-spindle lathe is disclosed in which a workpiece (10) is machined alternately using two different spindles (1,2) of the lathe. A transfer process by which the workpiece (10) is transferred between spindles (1,2) is also included in the automatic programming scheme. Automatic programming apparatus (12) accepts instructions and allows implementation through interpretation of the instructions and processing of data in either the instruction field or in a separate storage, or both. Therefore, machining and transference of the workpiece (10) using two spindles (1,2) is possible by the use of a single program with a straightforward input that can be easily understood. Conventional machining can be effected without the programmer having to be constantly conscious of which head or spindle is being employed.

Abstract: In direct digital synthesizers in the prior art, the output signal maintains a phase continuity whenever it switches, or hops, frequency. This phase continuity shows up as a smooth change in phase from one frequency to the next; the phase of the last frequency transitions into the phase of the new frequency without any discernable disruption. Thus, whenever the output signal returns to a switched frequency that it previously has, the output signal at the newly returned switched frequency has a new phase relative to its previous one at that frequency. For some applications, like simulating continuous different frequency sources, this phase continuity is not desirable. To overcome this disadvantage, the preferred embodiment of the present invention provides phase memory to a direct digital synthesizer so that regardless of the frequency that the output signal switches to, the output signal at that frequency is able to maintain a constant phase relative to a reference system clock pulse. In other words, switching and returning the synthesizer output signal to a selected frequency does not change the phase of the output signal at that frequency; the output signal at each frequency has the same constant phase as it has previously at that frequency. As a result, the synthesizer in accordance with the present invention appears to have a source of numerous continuous oscillators to which it can switch for a number of different frequencies, each having a constant phase.

Abstract: A communication device (11) with an interrogation signal (16) which can be sent out by an interrogation device (12) to at least one answering device (13), is to be designed so that it can be inexpensively implemented miniaturised and can be used over a wide range of applications. For this purpose, a very-high-frequency interrogation signal (16) is gated out with a lower-frequency modulation frequency (f) in the resonant circuit (18) of the answering device (13) and radiated out again as pulse sequence with the interrogation frequency (F) as carrier frequency. As a modulator (20), an interruptor (21) in the form of a microwave diode (25) is preferably provided in the answering resonant circuit (18), which diode is not yet turned on by the received amplitude of the interrogation frequency (F) but by the amplitude, superimposed on this frequency, of the rectangular oscillations (f) of a modulation oscillator (22) operated from a solar cell (7) in the answering device (13). This pulse modulation is received again by the interrogation device (12) and demodulated as a narrow-band signal. This enables the determination of the direction to an invisible object (14) equipped with the answering device (13) and, for example via a pulse-length modulation or an AF-shift keying, the transmission of a control, an identification or another information item supplied from the environment. In particular, this communication device (11) can also be used for monitoring and remote control purposes, for instance for vehicle steering or for unlocking doors on the approach of a person who is carrying an answering device (13) tuned to the demodulation frequency of the interrogation device (12) fixed to the door. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A resilient biasing device comprises inner (32A,B) and outer sleeves (34A,B) around an annular elastomeric member (30). The inner sleeve defines fixing points substantially coplanar with the axis of the assembly. The assembly is then cut perpendicular to its axis, and one of the two pieces rotated about an axis neither coplanar nor perpendicular to that defined by the fixing points and the outer sleeve portions of the two sub-assemblies joined. The fixing points are then realigned with the object to be resiliently biased, thus torsionally preloading the two subassemblies in opposite directions.

Abstract: A light source generates probe light to be radiated on a sample. An optical probe has a pin hole at its distal end and selectively supplies the probe light to the sample through the pin hole. An optical detecting unit detects light emerging from the sample and converts it to an electrical signal. The light source generates the probe light whose intensity changes in the pulse-like manner. The optical detecting unit detects the light emerging from the sample in synchronism with an increase in probe light which changes in the pulse-like manner and converts it to the electric signal. Therefore, noise which is conventionally converted to an electrical signal can be decreased even when the probe light which changes in the pulse-like manner is decreased, and measurement can be performed at a high S/N ratio even if the pin hole diameter is small. As a result, the resolution of a near field scanning optical microscope can be improved.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing the maximum gain applied to a video signal during gamma correction are disclosed. A gamma exponent value, a black level, white level, and a desired maximum gain value are selected. A count of possible input signal values is determined. A modified black level is set equal to the desired black level. A gain limit value for the gamma correcting transfer function is calculated, and the smallest input signal for which the applied gain is less than or equal to the gain limit is determined. A black level correction factor is calculated. The modified black level is increased by the black level correction factor, and a determination is made whether the black level correction factor has decreased to less than a predetermined threshold value. The gamma correction function is recalculated and further black level corrections are added until the correction threshold is reached. The final transfer function increases linearly and has a gain equal to the gain limit value for video signal values near the desired black level. The gamma function increases non-linearly at a decreasing rate near the white level.
