Abstract: A method of producing an optical fiber cable. A plurality of grooves (2) are formed in an outer surface of a spacer (1). The grooves are formed continuously in the longitudinal direction by a die which surrounds the circumference of the spacer. The grooves extend, in a longitudinally changing direction. The optical fibers (7) are guided into the grooves through guide plates arranged to rotate in a reciprocating motion about the spacer. The position of the grooves is detected and converted into an electric signal. The operation of an actuator for driving the movement of the die and the guide plates is controlled on the basis of the electric signal thereby rotating the plates and the die in synchronism with displacement of said grooves.

Abstract: A heater mechanism that includes a combustion chamber that is heated by open flames of a combustion gas generated from solid, liquid, or gaseous fuel, with heat being transferred from the combustion chamber to a heat-carrier that, for indirect or direct transfer of heat to a room that is to be heated, is conveyed via at least one flow-producing mechanism, which is driven by an electric motor that is supplied with power obtained from at least one thermoelectric generator directly from the heat generated by the flame in the combustion chamber. This generator is embodied as a plate-like semiconductor element having a cold side and a side that is to be heated. The cold side is disposed in the inlet region for still-cool heat-carrier, or in the vicinity of the ambient air. The side that is to be heated is disposed either in the convection range of the flame of the combustion chamber, or in the exhaust gas stream from the latter.

Abstract: A heat exchanger (31) cools at a programmed rate a prede­termined area of skin. The rate at which the area of skin changes in response to temperature change of the heat exchanger and the rate the skin temperature returns to normal are then measured and compared to standard rates over a number of cycles. Impaired peripheral blood flow is evident espe­cially on subsequent cycles as vascular disease slows the rate of return to normal temperature of the skin. The heat exchanger has a cooling chamber (110) with one side of the chamber being a cooling surface (111) adjacent the skin. An injector (130) is connected to a source of fluid (75) having a boiling point at ambient pressure less than the temperature to which the skin is to be cooled. The injector injects fluid into the chamber and onto the side of the cooling surface opposite the skin to boil the fluid on the surface to cool the surface and the skin.

Undesirable current spikes in the sourcing current are avoided by preventing simultaneous conduction in the totem pole.

Abstract: A TTl output driver gate configuration which has reduced voltage spikes on internal power supply potential and ground potential nodes includes a P-channel pull-up transistor (P1), an N-channel pull-down transistor (N1), a NAND logic gate (14), a NOR logic gate (16), a first positive feedback amplifier circuit (18), and a second positive feedback amplifier circuit (20). The pull-up transistor (P1) and the pull-down transistor (N1) have gates which are made serpentine. The reduction of voltage spikes is achieved by slowing down the turn-on times of the pull-up and pull-down transistors during transitions due to the distributed resistances and capacitances of the polysilicon material used to form the serpentine gates thereof. The first and second positive feedback amplifier circuits (18, 20) are used to pull the undriven gate ends of the respective transistors all the way to negative and positive supply potentials so as to facilitate transitions at an output node.
