Abstract: System for adjusting holographic scanner lockout voltage in a fixed position optical scanner with a multi-faceted holographic disk including circuitry for adjusting the lockout voltage as a function of the focal length of the active facet. A facet identifying signal is used to address a lockout table (84) in processor (38) memory, and a digital value retrieved from the lockout table (84) is converted to analog form (66) and applied through a resistor (68) to a voltage divider (54, 56) in a scaling circuit (52). The voltage divider scales down a white peak following voltage (48) and compares (50) it to a black peak following voltage (48). The facet-dependent lockout voltage biases the junction (58) of the voltage divider to vary the effective lockout voltage as a function of the focal length of the currently active facet.

Abstract: Disclosed are novel blends comprising segmented polyesteramides with minor amounts of carbodiimide containing materials. 
     The blends are characterized by excellent physical properties and improved compression set characteristics over the polyesteramides in the absence of the carbodiimide component. This allows the polymers obtained to find utility in the making of seals or gaskets which heretofore the base polyesteramides could not satisfy.

Abstract: A cathode ray tube beam deflection system operable in slew and random stroke and periodic raster display modes provides automatic power supply voltage switching (l6, l8) to maintain linear operation and high efficiency. Control of automatic switching is obtained by continuously monitoring yoke voltage, yoke current, and deflection voltage, a power supply voltage being switched to a voltage of higher magnitude to provide a higher deflection rate when the yoke voltage exceeds a predetermined level at a predetermined current polarity and returned to a power supply voltage of lower magnitude when the higher deflection rate is no longer required.

Abstract: Novel polyvinyl alcohols include, in the polymeric backbone, vinyl units containing pendant hydrophobic groups. The polymers are made by hydrolysis of corresponding polyvinyl acylates under conditions are avoid hydrolysis of the pendant hydrophobic groups from the polymer. These groups are preferably bonded into the polymer as allyl ether units. The hydrophobic units act as internal plasticisers in films or other shaped articles formed from the polymers and, in particular, gives significant benefit in viscosity and other rheology characteristics of aqueous compositions formed from the polymer.

Abstract: In a thin film coating method, tack members are brought close to a surface of a substrate to temporarily tack the forward end portion of a web of thin film to the forward end of the substrate. Compression-bonding rollers are then brought into a tacking position where the forward end portion of the thin film is tacked from a standby position where the compression-bonding rollers do not touch the tack members to make compression-bonding contact with the forward end portion of the tacked thin film after the tack members are moved away from the surface of the substrate. The compression-bonding rollers are then rotated at the tacking position for the double purpose of conveying the substrate and adhering the thin film to the substrate. In this process, the forward end of the substrate is detected to produce a detection signal at a detection position before the substrate is conveyed to the tacking position, the conveyance of the substrate is stopped after the forward end of the substrate has been conveyed from the detection position to the tacking position, and the tack members are brought close to the conveyance passage of the substrate while the forward end of the substrate is being conveyed from the detection position to the tacking position to thereby tack the forward end of the thin film to the surface of the   substrate after the forward end of the substrate is stopped at the tacking position.

A switch cover (16) includes a contact chamber for covering the movable contact. Fixed contacts (17a,17b) are provided on the switch cover for supplying electrical power to be switched. A first passage is defined between the contact chamber and the plunger chamber. The sleeve and the cylindrical portion of the bobbin define a second passage therebetween which connects the coil chamber on the switch cover side and the plunger chamber. A third passage connects the coil chamber with an outside of the switch housing.

Abstract: Fast methods of tone detection and tone generation disclosed are particularly suitable for implementation in a digital signal processor. Chebyshev polynomials are employed to generate periodic waveforms and to detect such waveforms. In an alternative aspect of the invention, trigonometric formulae are employed to generate periodic waveforms which are representable as the sum of sine and cosine functions. Unlike analog techniques, the digital techniques do not entail long delays in the generation or detection of tones because a fast iterative recalculation is employed at each step. Accumulated error is avoided by restarting the procedure once a predetermined value is exceeded. Independent choice of a quality factor and a confidence level is provided by the digital tone detection technique.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-ply film of high impact strength and tear strength, consisting of at least three layers of polyolefin homopolymers and/or copolymers, the two outer layers con­sisting of thin films of polyolefins of ultrahigh molecular weight and the interposed layer consisting of fibers or fiber structures of polyolefins of ultrahigh molecular weight and the films and the fibers preferably having been stretched to an extreme extent. Due to their small thickness, which, depending on the number of the layers, varies between 0.1 and 100 µm, these multi-ply films are particularly suitable for the manufacture of parachutes, balloons and similar articles, where high impact strength and tear strength in combination with a small film thickness are important.

Abstract: An electromagnetic contactor or motor controller (10) in which an energy efficient bounceless contact closing operation is utilized. The energy supplied to the armature (40) of the electromagnetic closing coil (31) is such that the armature attains a predetermined velocity during its closing operation which predetermined velocity is approximately sufficient to allow the armature to move to its final fixed closed disposition where the air gap (58) between it and a permanent magnet (86) is reduced to zero at a velocity of approximately zero. One field of use is in the motor starters. An advantage lies in the fact that the present system reduces the required contact closing energy to a minimal amount.

Abstract: In a device for damping sprung wheel suspension systems in vehicles and the like with a piston/cylinder unit, instantaneous dynamic driving conditions are detected by sensors and serve for controlling the flow through damper valves, the damping force operative in each particular case being controlled in such a way that passive and active damping force components are produced and when an external energy supply is required due to the instantaneous sequence of motion, the existing damping force is essentially reduced to zero (semi-active damping). Separate facilities for influencing the controlled pressure fluid are provided for the tension and the compression stage, consisting in the connection in series of two separate valves (15, 16) in each case for each direction of motion (tension/compression stage), with a total of four valves being present, one valve determining the active damping component and one valve, in series with the latter, determining the passive damping component, in each case being arranged both in the tension and in the compression stage.
