Abstract: The military equipment comprises a turret mounted for rotation about a vertical axis and supporting, by means of a swivelling device with horizontal axis, a main heavy gun totally external to the turret, having its own shield and situated approximately in a plane passing through the axis of rotation of the turret. The swivelling device comprises two lateral supports surrounding the gun and supporting the latter via bearings so as to define an elevation axis situated behind the rotational axis of the turret. One of the supports and the shield of the gun have oppositely situated openings for forming a protected channel for a gun loading system supplying the gun with rounds of ammunition from inside the turret. The feed system constitutes a unitary assembly. It has a frame secured in the gun shield on which a carriage is transversely movable between a position where an ammunition craddle supported by the carriage is aligned with a weapon and a position lateral to the weapon. The loading craddle is movable between a rear position for transport by the carriage and a front position accessible from inside the turret for placing a piece of ammunition therein.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION      There is disclosed an analog signal processing circuit (compandor) and a method for overcoming noise in a transmission medium by means of a composite compressor and composite expander. The composite compressor splits the frequency spectrum of the analog signal into two or more frequency components, compresses all of the frequency components in parallel with the same 3:1 integer compression ratio, combines the compressed frequency components to produce a compressed analog signal, and transmits the compressed analog signal on the transmission medium.  The composite expander reconstructs the original analog signal by means of feedback loop which extracts one of the compressed frequency components from the compressed analog signal, expands that extracted compressed frequency component to produce an expanded frequency component, derives the other expanded frequency components from the first expanded frequency component, compresses the derived expanded frequency components which are used to extract the first compressed frequency component, and a combining circuit which combines the expanded frequency components to reconstruct the original analog signal.

Abstract: Abstract An apparatus for processing video signals receives an input digital video signal corresponding to a displayed image and occurring in successive samples derived at a sampling clock frequency.  The input digital video signal is divided into successive groups of samples corresponding to successive intervals of time, each group being further divided into N sections of successive samples and the samples within each section corresponding to a defined area of the displayed image.  The received samples are written into an addressable memory at selected write addresses and are read out from selected read addresses.          The read addresses are generated so as to cause cyclically sequential read out of the N sections, with the samples being read out in the order of entry and starting from the initial samples in each of the N sections.  The N sections read from the memory are supplied to respective latch circuits, the outputs of which constitute N channel signals.

Abstract: ABSTRACT       A ground-disposable module for encapsulating radioactive waste contained within shipping containers is disclosed herein. Generally, the modules comprise a rigid outer container for providing a first radiation and water barrier for the waste, an inner container formed from the shipping container for providing a second radiation and water barrier, and a central layer of grout which forms still another radiation and water barrier and which provides the rigid outer container with a substantially solid interior which reinforces the compressive strength of the module. The rigid outer container may hold a plurality of shipping containers which have been compacted. Such compaction maximizes the number of containers which may be encapsulated into a particular module, and increases the overall compressive strength of the module by increasing the integrity and strength of the shipping containers and wastes grouted therein. In order to facilitate handling, the outer containers of the modules includes a pattern of grooves at its bottom portion for receiving the forks of a forklift, and a plurality of I-bolt anchors at its top portion which are detachably connectable to the hooks of a hoist. In the preferred embodiment, the outer containers of the modules are hexagonally shaped, right angled prisms. The hexagonal prism shape of the outer container of the module allows the modules to form subsidence-free, solid arrays which have sufficient compressive strength to support an earthen-type trench cover, yet are flexibly conformable to changes in the shape of the trench which might occur from a seismic disturbance.

Abstract: ABSTRACT    Fig. 2 A filter cigarette is provided which comprises a tobacco rod which includes a charge of tobacco 1 wrapped in cigarette paper 3, an integral, axially aligned cylindrical filter plug 4, and tipping paper 8. In one embodiment, the filter plug is divided into first 6 and second 7 segments with the first segment being rotatable with respect to the second segment. Rotation of the first segment with respect to the second segment, in one embodiment of the invention, serves to vary the air dilution value of the cigarette.

In yet another embodiment, an encapsulated flavourant is provided which is released responsive to rotation of the first segment with respect to the second segment.     In another embodiment, the tipping paper is air transmissive, and the wrapping is substantially air impermeable and has a plurality of first longitudinally extending, substantially air impermeable depressions spaced about the circumference of the first segment which are registrable with corresponding second, longtiduinally extending, substantially air impermeable depressions spaced about the circumference of the second segment, such that as the first segment is rotated relative to the second segment, the degree of registry of the first and second depressions varies, thereby admitting varying amounts of air to the filter.     .
