Patent EP-0429888-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MUELLER HORST DIPL-ING
IPC: H04B7/24
Filed: 1990-11-05
Abstract: A pointer is allocated to the first tributary unit in a tributary group system for determining its position in the frame; the other tributary units receive a system indicator instead of a pointer. Each network node facility along a transmission link must recognise the tributary group system and forward its tributary units in the correct order. If a clock adaptation is required in the first tributary unit, a phase shift must also be initiated in all others. This requires hardware and software. This can be omitted if a pointer (PTR1 to PTR5) with the value of the positioning determination of the first tributary unit (TU-121) is allocated to all tributary units (TU-121 to TU-125) containing the broadband signal (DSa). The individual tributary units (TU-121 to TU-125) can then pass through the network node facilities independently of one another - if necessary with an individual phase shift (PS). At the receiving end, the tributary group system is restored after recognition of the pointers (PTR1 to PTR5) in that leading tributary units (TU-122, TU-125) are delayed by delay sections (L2, L5). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is a portable, hand-held vapor sampling probe (30) for collecting vapors of compounds such as cocaine, heroin, and explosives prior to their desorption and analysis in a vapor detector. Rechargeable batteries (100) power a lamp (60) in the front face of the probe for heating target portions of a sampling surface, a puffer assembly (112) directs air jets at the target, and a motor (70) draws air samples through a collector coil (62) on whose surfaces vapors are trapped. A flexible U-shaped shroud (90) on the front face partially encloses the lamp and collector and helps to regulate air flow over the target and to protect the probe from damage. Upon contact with a surface, the shroud may activate a switch (92) which, together with a second switch (130) on the probe handle (132) and a lamp pyrometer (104), regulates heating of the target.

Abstract: The functions of two virtual operating systems (e.g. S/370 VM, VSE or IX370 and S/88 OS) are merged into one physical system. Partner pairs of S/88 processors run the S/88 OS and handle the fault tolerant and single system image aspects of the system. One or more partner pairs of S/370 processors are coupled to corresponding S/88 processors directly and through the S/88 bus. Each S/370 processor is allocated form 1 to 16 megabytes of contiguous storage from the S/88 main storage. Each S/370 virtual operating system thinks its memory allocation starts at address 0, and it manages its memory through normal S/370 dynamic memory allocation and paging techniques. The S/370 is limit checked to prevent the S/370 from accessing S/88 memory space. The S/88 Operating System is the master over all system hardware and I/O devices. The S/88 processors across the S/370 address space in direct response to a S/88 application program so that the S/88 may move I/O data into the S/370 I/O buffers and process the S/370 I/O operations. The S/88 and S/370 peer processor pairs to execute their respective Operating Systems in a single system environment without significant rewriting of either operating system. Neither operating system is aware of the other operating system nor the other processor pairs.

Abstract: A programmable array logic device including a programmable logic array, at least one register pair, a multiplexer coupled to the register pair so that they can share a common I/O pin, and an observability buffer for controlling the multiplexer. A dual clock buffer is provided so that registers within the register pair can be clocked singly when in a preload mode or together when in a logic or verification mode. When in the logic mode, either the output of a buried state register or a output register is observed at the I/O pin under the control of a product term generated by the logic array. When in the preload mode the register to be preloaded is selected by an externally provided preload select signal. In the verification mode, which typically follows a programming mode, individually selected product terms within the logic array can be observed by clocking them into the register pairs.

Abstract: The push-button plungers are held in the switching position by means of a mechanical latching device and are released from the switching position again by pressing the push-button plunger again. A contact set is allocated to each push-button plunger. The contact sets are constructed as microswitches and are arranged on a printed-circuit board which can be physically separated from the supporting body of the push-button plungers. Each push-button plunger has an operating finger which is guided displaceably in the operating direction of the push-button plunger. When the push-button plunger is released, said finger is held in front of the microswitch by means of a spring which acts in this direction. When the push-button plunger is operated, said finger presses onto the microswitch as a result of a spring tension, the spring tension being greater than the operating force required for the microswitch. As a result of these measures, the mechanical part of a push-button switch can be used without any change on any desired shapes of electrical circuits and on arrangements of microswitches which influence them. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device is disclosed that overrides the manual controls for filling and emptying an air suspension spring, so that the spring is not over-filled or under- filled. The device also includes a mechanism for limiting the rise of the seat suspension when the driver exits the seat. The invention has a latch bar that slides through two pieces of lubricating plastic. A ramped section of the latch bar contacts one of two switches that prevents the adjustment of a seat suspension below a minimum safe ride position or prevents adjustment above a maximum safe position. The latch bar also includes notches that are engageable with a latch pawl that is operated by a solenoid. When an operator leaves the seat, the solenoid is energized and drives the latch pawl into a notch in the latch bar. An electronic switch also enables the deenergizing of the solenoid, yet the latch pawl locks the latch bar so that the air spring does not cause a substantial rise in the seat suspension.
