Abstract: The air supply system for feeding air to a firebox within a building comprises a fresh air intake box (3) in the outside building wall (19) and, in the immediate vicinity of the firebox, a distributor box (7), connected with several pipes (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d). The fresh air intake box (3) has an extensible tube (25) for adaptation to varying wall thicknesses of the outside building wall (19). The prefabricated parts can be readily installed on the building site. By the use of several pipes (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d), the individual pipe cross section can be kept at a small value so that no static impairment of the building ceiling (11), wherein the pipes (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) are extended, occurs. Advantageously, a fan can be installed in the extensible and readily removable tube (25) in order to increase the flow velocity of the fresh air; servicing of the fan is possible without any problems.

Abstract: A plastics bottle for carbonated drinks has a side wall (4) and a base (5) formed with a central area (8) surrounded by circumferentially spaced projecting feet (6) separated by substantially parallel-sided straps (7). The central area (8) and the straps (7) define a continuous smooth domed surface with no re-entrant portions. The ratio of the combined width of the straps (7) to the outside circumference of the base (5) is in the range from 1:5.5 to 1:6.5 and preferably 1:6. Preferably the base (5) has only seven projecting feet (6). This configuration is particularly useful with bottles of small size and enables a saving in plastics material of up to 40% by weight.

Abstract: The deposition of zinc sulfide films (16) using dimethylzinc (46) and hydrogen sulfide (44) in a vacuum processor reactor (50) provides a low temperature process applicable for high volume production of infrared focal planes. These layers (16) of zinc sulfide are used as insulators and infrared anti-reflective coatings which are free of contamination relative to physical vapor deposited ZnS films. The zinc sulfide layers (16) are formed by evacuating a chamber (62) and mixing hydrogen sulfide gas (44) and dimethylzinc gas (46) at. specific operating conditions until the desired ZnS film thickness is obtained. The rate of growth of the zinc sulfide (16) film is controlled by varying the temperature, pressure, and the relative flow rates of the hydrogen sulfide gas (44) and the dimethylzinc gas (46).

Abstract: A dual-face, internally-mounted cooling fan (80) is provided in a dynamoelectric machine (10), e.g. an alternating current generator. The generator includes a ventilated housing (11) supporting a stator assembly (20) and a rotor assembly (38). The fan (80) includes a divider disk (84) having blades (86) provided on each surface and is mounted to rotate with the rotor assembly (38). As the fan is rotated, separate air currents (100A,100B,104A, 104B) are drawn axially into the housing (11) for cooling internal components of the generator. The divider disk (84) prohibits substantial mixing of air currents drawn from opposite ends of the generator before those air currents are radially expelled from the housing (11) through circumferentially-sited vents (90).

The buckle housing (10, 90) contains two latching levers (40, 42) arranged for angular movement about respective spaced mutually parallel pivot axes (44, 46). The levers (40, 42) have hook formations (52, 54) which are shaped so that a force applied to a tongue (12, 14) in a direction to remove it from the buckle housing (10) tends to cause displacement of the corresponding lever (40, 42) from its locking position to its release position. Blocking means (80) is manually movable between a blocking position in which the levers (40, 42) are retained in their locked positions and a release position in which the levers (40, 42) are free to move between their locking positions and their release positions.

The positioning of the tongue (12) relative to a slide (13) for adjusting the tongue is therefore always unequivocal, so that no control errors can occur in the thread-selection unit.

Title: A device with a multi-phase load, a static converter and choke coils.
Inventor: VOET EDUARD JOSEF
IPC: H02P27/06
Filed: 1990-01-30
Abstract: The device comprises inductance coils (6) which are each allocated to one phase and which are wound around a common magnetic core in the same direction and with the same number of windings. One each of the inductance coils (6) is connected to one each of the phase leads (3,5) for supplying the multiphase load (4), the connection being made in series between the converter (1) and the load (4). The load can particularly be a multiphase asynchronous motor. The inductance coils (6) and the magnetic core can be dimensioned equivalent to a power supply transformer adjusted to the frequency and rating of the converter (1), so that deficiencies in the electromagnetic symmetry of the load (4) are balanced, or, on the other hand, they can be dimensioned equivalent to a mains filter adjusted to the frequency and rating of the spikes of converter (1), in order to remove such spikes from the respective phase (3) of the power supply. In such case the inductance coil (6) comprises a central terminal (7) which is connected, via a capacitor (11), with a reference terminal (12) leading to a reference pole of the internal DC power supply of the converter (1), in order to transform the spikes within a ratio of -1:1 and to apply the transformed spikes to the reference terminal (12). Preferably, however, a further capacitor (13) is connected in parallel with each of the inductance coils (6), in order to adjust the resonant frequency of the inductance coil. An additional coil can be placed on the magnetic core, which may be used as the secondary of a power supply transformer.

Abstract: Selon un procédé amélioré d'enregistrement d'images, l'image est exposée pendant qu'une tension (E) est appliquée sur un organe photosensible (2) et sur un milieu accumulateur de charge (1) opposés, la décharge électrique produite entre les deux formant une image latente électrostatique sur le milieu accumulateur de charge (1). L'écartement (d) entre l'organe photosensible et le milieu accumulateur de charge, ou la pression du gaz, sont variés afin d'assurer le réglage On/Off de la décharge. L'image est donc enregistrée sans qu'une commande précise de la production d'impulsions de haute tension ni un obturateur optique soient nécessaires. Afin de varier la tension intermédiaire de manière inégale, au moins une des couches électroconductrices (1b, 2b) et/ou la surface (1a, 2c) de l'organe photosensible et du milieu accumulateur de charge peuvent être rugueuses, ce qui permet d'enregistrer après exposition une image matricielle à demi-teintes sans aucun autre traitement électrique particulier. En outre, afin de réduire le potentiel de formation de voile dans les zones non exposées, le milieu accumulateur de charge (1) est uniformément préchargé avec une polarité opposée à celle de l'image que l'on veut former, puis on procède à l'exposition. On augmente ainsi le potentiel de contraste de l'image latente et on en améliore la sensibilité.

Title: Stereo headphone for the "in front" location of auditory events generated by stereo headphones.
Inventor: KONIG FLORIAN MEINHARD
IPC: H04R5/033
Filed: 1990-07-24
Abstract: By means of an iteratively produced shift in both acoustic-transducer systems of a stereo headset, the shift being principally downwards and forwards with respect to the line of vision, starting from the reference position used in conventional acoustic-transducer installations in the earpiece, an auditory event is produced which is located substantially horizontally in front of the listener. The most important component of the empirical iterative process is a compensating shift in the headphone acoustic transducers by vector addition in a downwards direction relative to the up-in-head localization which usually occurs with head-specific exposure to acoustic waves. The frequency-dependent differences in sound level which occur, in contrast to conventional acoustic-transducer installations, as a result of this combined shift in the acoustic-transducer systems are used in the same way for a separate multi-channel antidistortion concept in conventional stereo headphones to give an individually simulated "horizontally in front" auditory environment. Sound stimuli of this kind located horizontally in front of the listener are produced independently of the recorded sound and recording technique to be reproduced by the stereo headphones. The result is an increase in quality of the auditory events generated by the stereo headphones in the context of the multi-dimensional reproduction in space of concert-hall acoustics for instance.
