Abstract: A gas turbine rotor assembly (10) includes axially spaced rotor discs (18,20,22) carried on a shaft (12), together with first and second generally cylindrical actuators (40,42) mounted at each of their opposite ends to the shaft (12) and extending toward one another to overlap at their distal ends. The actuators (40,42) lie within the interior surface of the rotor discs (18-22) and have openings (48 and 50) in their overlapped portions. Upon a transient condition, the forward actuator (40) thermally expands in an axial direction to register at least in part its openings with the openings of the second actuator (42) to provide air flow through the partially aligned openings to opposite sides of an aft rotor disc (20,22). The second actuator (42) thermally expands in a forward axial direction to increase the registration of the openings and, hence, the flow-through area, affording increased air flow. When approaching steady state operation, the rotor assembly expands axially to displace the openings of the second actuator into misalignment with the openings of the first actuator to prevent the flow of air through the openings, whereby cooling losses during steady state operation are avoided.

Abstract: A receiver (10) for a differential bus (20,21) comprises voltage conversion means (22,23), and a set of three comparators (24-26). Comparator 24, receives signals from both sides of the differential bus, whereas comparators 25 and 26 each compare the signal from one side of the bus with a threshold. The states of the outputs of the three comparators (24-26) are monitored, and allow the determination of the presence of line faults. If there is no fault, the output of comparator 24 is used for data reception, whereas, in the presence of a fault, one of the comparators 25 or 26 is used. The systems allows for fault detection even during data reception, and in this case, the correct comparator output can be switched to the data detection part. Thus the occurance of a line fault need not interrupt transmission.

Abstract: A modulation apparatus for converting digital data having the basic data length equal to  m  bits into a variable length code (d, k; m, n; r) having the basic codeword length of  n  bits is disclosed. The apparatus includes an encoder (12) for determining the constraint length  i  of data supplied from a shift register (11), based upon  m  bits as a unit, a selector (13), plural conversion tables (14 i ) and an unfixed bit processing circuit (16 i ). The selector (13) selects one of the conversion tables (14 i ) based upon the constraint length  i  and transmits  m  x i bit data to the selected conversion table (14 i ), which then converts the m x i bit data into n x i bit codewords. The unfixed bit processing circuit (16 i ) sets a bit at a preset position of a codeword among the codewords which gives an infinite value ∞ of the maximum run, or a bit at a preset position of a codeword among the codewords which has the maximum number of consecutive "0"s from the least significant bit towards upper order side bits, as being an unfixed bit, and sets the unfixed bit to "1" if  d  or more "0"s are consecutive to the unfixed bit. With the present modulation apparatus, the minimum length between transitions T min  may be enlarged as compared to that in EFM for increasing the recording density, while the maximum length of transitions T max  may also be increased as compared to that for VFM.

In this condition, when connection terminals are press-fitted in terminal receiving holes, the capacitor is received in an equipment chamber. A filler is filled in the part chamber, and is solidified, thus completing the assembly. In one alternative, an electronic part, soldered to a printed board, is received within a housing. Each of female metal terminals has an abutment piece, and the abutment piece is abutted against an associated printed line on the printed board in facing relation thereto. In another alternative, the connector housing is divided into two sections, that is, a housing member and a lid, so that the terminal receiving chambers, as well as the electronic part-receiving chamber, is openable. Press-contact terminals 309 are fixedly mounted on and project from a bottom of the electronic part-receiving chamber. The press-contact terminal has press-contact blades for press-contacting a wire, and also has a retaining portion to which a lead terminal of a capacitor can be connected by soldering. The capacitor is received in the electronic part-receiving chamber, and the lead terminals are soldered respectively to the retaining portions.
