Abstract: In an arrangement for testing internal screw threads by means of a threading tool which can be screwed into the internal thread, the tool holder (11) is coupled to the drive motor (26) via a coupling (60) which gives way flexibly in the event of a predetermined torque being exceeded during a rotary movement corresponding to the screw-in action and consequently flexibly absorbs the rotary impulse of the revolving parts. The coupling (60) is rotatably mounted in an intermediate part (34). The intermediate part (34) is supported in the housing (10) in such a way that it can be orientated. Via the transmission (124) in the form of a ball/hexagon coupling, a drive-side coupling half (58) of the coupling (60) is connected to the drive motor (26) in such a way that it can be orientated. <IMAGE>

IPC: F02B1/04
Filed: 1991-06-24
Abstract: This invention provides an ignition system for a spark initiated internal combustion engine such as an Otto cycle engine. High voltage pulses are generated, for instance by way of an ignition coil, and these are passed to the respective spark gaps by way of semiconductor switches. 
     These semiconductor switches are preferably bulk photoconductive switch devices which each comprise a light source and a photosensitive switch. These devices are under the control of control circuitry which activates and deactivates the light sources approximately to distribute the high voltage pulses to the spark plugs. 
     These switches may be used to improve the rise time of the potential across the spark gap or to generate a plurality of sparks in one gap from a single pulse.

Abstract: At least one electronic element (12) is ultrasonically welded to a printed circuit board (10) to create the electronic circuit. Proper alignment between terminals of a conductive circuit pattern (14) on the circuit board and terminal units (20) on the connecting surface of the electronic element is ensured by a variety of techniques: (i) small protuberances (22) on the terminal units, (ii) raised section (26) on the bottom surface of the terminal units placed to engage indented portions of the board, and (iii) corresponding posts (36) (on the electronic elements) and holes (41) (formed on the circuit board). The ultrasonic welding of the element to the printed circuit board is typically conducted at a frequency range between 25-30 megahertz which produces a vibration which grinds the terminal units of the electronic element to the terminals of the circuit pattern while also welding the element and circuit board together. Electronic circuits formed in accordance with the inventive concept disclosed herein can be comprised of stacked or interlocking combinations of weldable electronic elements. Such structures can improve rigidity and vary spacial relationships of electronic circuits.

Abstract: A thin film deposition apparatus has at least two vacuum chambers (3, 5), one of which is an etching vacuum chamber (5) for cleaning wafer surfaces. The etching vacuum chamber (5) includes a first gas introduction system (8) for introducing an etching gas, and a second gas introduction system (9) for introducing a reactive gas for use in the cleaning whereby silicon deposited films will be removed. A thin film deposition method which may be carried out by the apparatus includes a cleaning process performed in advance of thin film deposition process for depositing a thin film on the wafer surfaces. In the cleaning process, the wafer surfaces are etched with the etching gas, the wafers are thereafter taken out of the chamber (5), a simulation wafer for particle checking is transferred into the chamber (5), and the degree to which particles have been generated is checked with the simulation wafer. When required, the reactive gas is introduced thereafter to gasify the deposited films and the particles. The resultant gas is exhausted to the outside of the vacuum chamber (5).

Abstract: The parallelism of a multi-pipelined digital computer is enhanced by detection of branch instructions from the execution pipelines and concurrent processing of up to two of the detected instructions in parallel with the operations of the execution pipelines. Certain branch instructions, when detected, are removed altogether from the pipeline, but still processed. The processing is synchronized with the execution pipeline to, first, predict an outcome for detected branch instructions, second, test the conditions for branch instructions at their proper place in the execution sequence to determine whether the predicted outcome was correct, and third, fetch a corrected target instruction if the prediction proves wrong.

Abstract: A card reader (10) for reading data recorded on a magnetic stripe on a card includes a guide (24) for guiding the card (12) along a path past a transducer head (34). A gimbal arrangement mounts the head (34) on the end of a mounting shaft which is journaled in the end of an arm for free rotation about an axis parallel to the stripe as it moves along the path. The arm swivels about a transverse axis perpendicular to the stripe and is biased to bring the head (34) into the guide path (24) through a head opening. The head has a leading bevelled surface (52) so that a card (12) inserted in the path will lift the head (34) which will then ride firmly on the stripe. By virtue of the free rotation of the head (34) about an axis parallel (58) to the stripe, the device adjusts for any lack of parallelism between the head (34) and the magnetic stripe.

Abstract: A universal buffered interface (UBIF 34) couples a local bus (32) to a global bus (24) and supports, on the local bus, up to four nodes. The nodes may be comprised of processors (22a, 28a), memory banks, and/or I/O interfaces. Each processor has an associated private memory. The UBIF includes bidirectional, first-in-first-out (FIFO) buffers, or queues, for each node and operates in conjunction with a two-level bus hierarchy. The UBIF supports decoupled global memory (26) read requests and replies, supports decoupled, atomic read-modify-write operations to Global Memory, and block-read support for transferring contiguous blocks of global memory to processors or I/O interfaces. The UBIF also enables the use of an inter-processor communication (IPC) mechanism that enables any processor to send an interrupt to any other processor or processors in the system during a single global bus cycle. An interrupt mask is transferred over the address bus during a specially marked bus cycle, the interrupt mask identifying the processor or processors to be interrupted.
