Abstract: Television tuning systems and methods employing use of ghost cancellation and antenna directionality control to produce a ghost-free television signal. The invention employs use of a antenna whose directionality can be changed to change reception quality of a received television signal, and a baseband ghost cancellation unit which can perform baseband ghost cancellation. In a first embodiment of the invention, the directionality of the antenna is changed so that a television signal of sufficient reception quality is received from which a ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. A second embodiment of the invention further employs use of a tuner, and involves controlling the directionality of the antenna and the tuning frequency of the tuner so that a tuned television signal is produced which is properly tuned and of sufficient quality that a properly tuned ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. Both of the first and second embodiments can be used to obtain the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients which will produce a ghost-free television signal, and the tuning frequency setting which in combination with the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients will produce a properly tuned ghost-free television signal. A third embodiment of the invention further employs use of a storage device for storing the antenna directionality setting, (tuning frequency setting) and possibly, the ghost cancellation coefficients which enable production of a (properly tuned) ghost-free television signal.

Further to these potential relay devices, the base includes bus relay elements, said relay being operated through appropriate contact elements and a bus printed circuit (BLP). An electronic module printed circuit (ELP) can be mounted on the bus printed circuit (BLP), thereby providing the possibility of installing on both of them sending (SE) and/or receiving (EE) elements with which a connection can be activated between the first (BLP) and the second (ELP) circuits.

Date Jun. 11, 1998A multiple-unit railway vehicle having three car bodies where the respective neighboring car bodies are each connected in a pivoting manner to one another by means of a single coupling, and each car body sits only on one two-axle truck. In the vicinity of the respective center pivot and possibly also on the trucks, there are actuator elements that are used to influence the articulation angle between the longitudinal axes of the car bodies. To control the articulation angle so that when the train is traveling over a curved segment of track, the car bodies assume a position in relation to one another that corresponds at least to a significant extent to the static rest position of the railway vehicle on the corresponding section of track, the profile and curvature of the track are determined during travel for the segment of the track that currently lies between the first and last trucks, and from that measurement, the set point position is determined, and by means of the actuator system measurements are taken to counteract at least an overshooting or undershooting of the set point value.

Abstract: A mechanical device for automatically positioning a closure plate (21) for sealing the opening created by the folding of adjacent segments (1,11) of an articulated chute to thereby prevent undesired discharge or leakage from the chute is provided. The device, which is particularly useful on cement trucks, includes a closure plate (21) rotatably connected to one segment (1,11) of the chute and disposed to articulate upon an adjacent segment (1,11) of the chute so that the closure plate (21) seals the opening when the chute is in a folded configuration and, when the segments (1,21) are unfolded to deliver a charge, rotates to a position clear of the discharge path. The device also includes means (29) for sealably biasing the closure plate (21) toward the opening when the segments (1,11) are folded and for biasing the closure plate (21) away from the discharge path when the segments (1,11) are in an unfolded position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A centrifugal separtor for non-cohesive particulates, such as are found in transmission oils and hydraulic liquids, rather than the cohesive combustion products found within internal combustion engine lubricants, consists of a housing enclosing a vertical spindle on which spins a liquid reaction driven rotor container. The container is divided internally by inwardly extending partition wall into separate outflow chambers. Non-cohesive particulates which separate from the liquid, and are held against the peripheral side wall by centrigual force during rotation, slump therefrom in the absence of rotation and risk forming a slurry that gets carried to the outflow chamber. An upwardly extending, outwardly inclined barrier wall forms a contaminant retention region with a restricted neck defined by the separation of the barrier wall edge from the side wall, that permits deposits on the barrier wall to carry to the peripheral side wall and spread across it during rotation, and does not interfere with slumping absent rotation and inhibits the slumped material from being washed into the outflow before rotation recommences.

Abstract: Striped patterning of dyed fabric, particularly dyed denim, is obtained by impacting the fabric with a row of columnar jet streams of fluid generated from a manifold under pressure while conveying it on a support member in a machine direction through a patterning station. The orifice gauge and diameter, manifold pressure, and line speed are selected to obtain optimal striping without blurring, loss of fabric strength or durability, or excessive warp shrinkage. Preferably, the jet strip is removably interchangeable in a common hydrojet manifold for forming different kinds of striped patterns. The back side of denim fabric may be subjected to pre-treatment to cause the surface of the dyed warp side to fill in and darken with color. A stri+E,acu e+EE  striping effect can also be obtained using a combination of jet strips. The striped patterning station can be incorporated at any suitable point in a conventional denim finishing range.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide an improved interferometer which does not require a drive mechanism for moving a reference surface or a measuring object for tuning same interferometer and which can be tuned virtually without vibrations, thus avoiding inaccurate measurements. To this end, the interferometer (10) comprises at least one light source, a reference surface (40), a measuring object (50) and at least one beam splitter (30). For tuning to be vibration-free, the interferometer (10) further comprises a device (60, 70) for polarizing the beams to be interfered in such a way that at the output of the interferometer (10) the states of polarization of said beams differ from each other, as well as an analyzer (80) positioned at said output of the interferometer (10), the state of polarization of which analyzer can be altered in a predefined manner. In accordance with its state of polarization, said analyzer introduces a defined Pancharatnam phase into the beams to be interfered so as to tune the interferometer (10).
