Abstract: A coin handling mechanism for vending machines is disclosed which includes a control portion. The control portion always counts the number of each deposited denomination coins which is outputted from or inputted into each change retaining tubes according to the results of paying out of a coin return mechanism, output signals of a coin validation sensor and output signals of overflow sensors. Accordingly, when the sales are collected, if the number of the coins which should be retained in change retaining tubes is not changed, the increment of the coins retined in change retaining tubes is automatically paid out by turning switches "OFF" and "H" of the inventory switch on. Simultaneously, with respect to the decrement of the coins retained in change retaining tubes, since the denomination of the coins corresponding to the decrement is indicated by an indication portion, respectively, the decrement is solved by depositing the denomination coins corresponding to the indication to each change retaining tubes through an coin inlet until the indication is disappeared, and thereby to make the operation of supplying coins to change retaining tubes be easy.

Abstract: In a broadcast communication system, a plurality of transmitters (T₁, T₂, ... T M ) are located at different locations throughout a broadcast area for separately and synchronously broadcasting a common digital communication signal at a predetermined frequency over different signal paths, and a receiver (10, 12) located within the broadcast area receives the common digital communication signal separately broadcast by a plurality of the transmitters at the predetermined frequency over different signal paths and processes the received signal to reproduce the common digital communication signal without the effects of multipath and other channel distortions. The received signal is modified in relation to the broadcast signal by channel responses of the different signal paths; and the receiver includes an adaptive equalization filter (12) for processing the received signal inversely in accordance with a collection of the channel responses of the different signal paths to reproduce the common digital communication signal without the effects of multipath and other channel distortions. The accuracy of the filter in processing the received signal in accordance with the inverse of the collection of the channel responses of the different signal paths is enhanced by adapting the filter to reproduce a predetermined known common digital communication signal without the effects of multipath and other channel distortions.

Abstract: A process was to be developed, by means of which the residual materials arising in the separate collection and sorting of packaging materials and the like can be utilized for producing a synthesis gas and at the same time the pollution potential inherent in the residual materials is destroyed and the formation of new pollutants is prevented. This is effected in such a way that, after a pyrolysis reaction at temperatures from 300-500 DEG C, the metallic constituents are separated off and the remaining solid phase is charged to a gasification stage and gasified at temperatures between 1450 and 1850 DEG C with oxygen-enriched air or oxygen under reducing conditions. The ash fractions arising in the gasification stage are taken off in the form of a vitrified slag, and the gas phase leaving the pyrolysis is converted to synthesis gas together with the gases formed in the gasification stage at temperatures between 800 and 1250 DEG C, with simultaneous addition of steam. Apparatus for carrying out the process consists of a rotary pipe reactor which has a gas outflow line for the pyrolysis gases formed at the end opposite the charging side. On the solids take-off side, the rotary pipe is connected to a metal separator device and a gasification reactor which is connected via a gas outlet to a decomposition reactor, the pyrolysis gases taken off from the rotary pipe reactor and steam also being introduced into the decomposition reactor. The crude synthesis gas formed is discharged from the decomposition reactor via a cooling and scrubbing device.

Abstract: A data processing system (10) includes an adaptive method for allocation of RAM (20) as between procedures having both higher and lower priorities. The RAM (20) is provided with first and second portions (26,24), the first portion (26) for assignment to higher priority procedures and the second portion (24) for assignment to lower priority procedures, higher priority procedures being able to access also the second portion (24) of RAM (20). The adaptive method comprises the steps of: responding to a request (50) for allocation of RAM (20) to a higher priority procedure by determining (52) if RAM (20) is available from the first portion (26) and, if not, allocating RAM (20) from the second portion (24) to the higher priority procedure. The procedure enables allocation of RAM (20) from the second portion (24) to a lower priority procedure where available RAM (20) in the first portion (26) exceeds a first threshold level (A). The system continues the enablement until the available RAM (20) in the first portion (26) falls below a lower, second threshold level (B) at which point, the allocation to the lower priority procedure is inhibited. The inhibition of allocation of RAM (20) from the second portion (24) to a lower priority procedure continues until the available RAM (20) in the first portion (26) again exceeds the first threshold level (A).

Abstract: Apparatus for applying coatings to various surface types. The apparatus includes a reservoir (12) for holding a quantity of the coating material and a delivery tip (14) having adjustable bristles (40) at one end. The bristles are slidably secured in a spiral passageway (46) formed by a helical ridge (44) inside the delivery tip, thereby allowing the coating material to be continuously applied without the need to stop the procedure and rewet the applicator. The applicator permits accurate control of the amount of coating material applied to the surface. In this way, the surface receives neither an excessive nor an insufficient amount of the coating material. Moreover, the bristles may be pushed in to permit the coating material to be applied to a small, irregular surface, such as pits and fissures, or pulled out to permit the bristles to fan out for application to broad surface areas. Delivery of relatively viscous coating materials is made easier by providing the spiral passageway around the bristles so that the coating material does not have to flow through the bristles.

Abstract: A servo loop control apparatus having a master microprocessor and at least one autonomous streamlined signal processor is disclosed. The architecture provides a general purpose controller for use in systems where intensive servo signal processing is required and is well suited to applications where multiple servo control loops operate simultaneously. The operation of the streamlined signal processors is autonomous from the master processor so that critical functions can be dedicated to the streamlined signal processors. This eliminates complex interrupt management and tedious real time scheduling constraints, simplifies system design and improves system performance. The architecture provides an integrated mechanism for implementing multiple, concurrent, complex signal processing and embedded control functions, such as complete servo- mechanism management for high performance disk storage systems.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for measuring turbidity in liquid or gaseous media, in which the turbidity is determined by measuring the absorption and/or the scattering which are caused by pollution, and with which the absorption and/or the scattering is measured using an optical sensor. The disadvantages in known arrangements or methods consist in the sensitivity with which measurement is carried out. In addition, absorption effects due to colour cannot be distinguished from absorption effects due to contamination. These disadvantages are overcome by using an optical sensor consisting of a colour camera for the turbidity measurement. In the case of the arrangement according to the invention, the colour content involved in the light loss is determined from the RGB components of the signal received, by ascertaining the colour in comparison to a sample from the ratio of the colour contents to each other. The remaining light loss which is not caused by colour then provides the degree of turbidity.

Abstract: To implement different interface conditions in the ISDN subscriber line area or respectively in ISDN subscriber terminals, special integrated circuits, so-called Telecom ICs, are used. To avoid competitive bus situations when at least two modules of these Telecom ICs wish to reserve access at the same time, controllers are needed for controlling and securing the information transmission. A method for reserving time slots by means of a simple circuit arrangement is specified according to the invention. A request for reservation is signalled by a time slot reserving unit (ZRE). A collision detection unit (KEE) checks whether other modules may wish to access the bus and allocates a time slot to the module having the highest priority if an allocation status memory (BZS) has first detected a free time slot. The method can be generally used in serial data transmission and competitive bus situations by means of a very economical circuit.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A brake (B-3) in a transmission has a discharge line (Ld) connected to a drain line via a 3-4 shift valve (22). An electronic control unit has means for determining tie-up of brakes (B-3,B-2) on the basis of detection signals from various sensors arranged for shifting in a gear shift mechanism. Responsive to an output from the tie-up detecting means, a 4th speed signal is outputted to the 3-4 shift valve (22) to temporarily change only a hydraulic circuit into a 4th speed state, so that the release-side brake (B-3) is promptly released by draining hydraulic pressure through the 3-4 shift valve (22) without flowing through a 2-3 timing valve (23).
