Abstract: An electron beam tube apparatus comprises a plurality of electron beam tubes having a common output cavity. Power is coupled to the common cavity from the resonant cavities of the beam tubes, and is then fed to an output line. This arrangement permits the outputs of two or more beam tubes to be combined in a compact arrangement with little rf power loss. Previously, the signals from the output lines of respective beam tubes were combined. The output line may be transmission line or waveguide. The means for coupling signals between the cavities may comprise loops or irises, both of which may be selectively adjustable.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for stimulating and/or measuring visceral pain in a bodily hollow system of a human being or an animal. The method and apparatus is especially well suited for multi-modal stimulation and measuring, where different stimulus modalities are integrated into one stimulus device. The stimuli may be any one or more of the stimuli: mechanical stimulus, thermal stimulus, chemical stimulus and electric stimulus. The stimuli may activate superficial and deeper layers of the hollow system. Distinct responses to the individual stimuli and robust stimulus-response relations are obtained and result in the possibility of comparative studies of different visceral sensations.

Abstract: A vacuum cleaner has one or more display indicators on its housing. The indicators are supplied with light from at least one light source assigned thereto in order to optically indicate an operation condition. An electrical component actuates the at least one light source according to the operation condition. In order to create a vacuum cleaner in which the light source can be disposed elsewhere than directly below the display indicators, yet the indicators are nevertheless well illuminated, a light guiding element is disposed between the light source and the display indicators, which redirects the light that is emitted by at least one light source to the display. The assembly provides for the advantage that the distance and the structural differences between the light sources and the display indicators can be easily bridged, so that these functional components do not need to be directly adapted to one another.

Abstract: A caller may set his telephone's substitute ringback tone to be identical to that of the receiver or to that of a third party. Further, a caller may provide a substitute ringback tone to another recipient as a present. A substitute ringback tone playing server in the system checks whether there is a certain key input or key input stream from the caller requesting of bringing substitute ringback tone of the called party. Responding to the request, a bringing server sets the substitute ringback tone code of the caller stored in a playing control server as that of the called party. A user interface server allows a user to select a substitute ringback tone among multiple tones stored in a database to give to another person as a present.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for indicating satisfactory times for titrating a chemical solution, e.g., cleaning product, used by a utility device to dean and/or sanitize various types of articles. The utility device is described in an exemplary embodiment as being a warewashing machine (100) that applies the chemical solution to articles provided to the machine on racks (104). The chemical solution is formed in a solution tank (140) from a combination of at least one chemical product and at least one rinse agent. Whereas the chemical product is described as a detergent, the rinse agent is described as water. Over a time period including multiple wash cycles, the chemical product and the rinse agent are added to the solution tank, thereby changing conductivity of the chemical solution. The present invention senses various types of information associated with the formation of the chemical solution and applies one or more test conditions to the sensed information to determine satisfactory time periods for measuring concentration of the chemical product relative to the chemical solution. Indications of the occurrence of these satisfactory times are presented on a display module (122,124,125) in a manner visible to field persons responsible for titrating the chemical section.
