Abstract: A power drill has a mode changing mechanism enabling the drill to be operated selectively in a hammer mode and a non-hammer mode. Pivotally mounted upon an internal partition of the drill is a mode changing mechanism comprising a first rigid limb (62) and a second limb (68) consisting of a leaf spring (58) located in side-by-side relationship with the first limb (62). The mechanism is pivotable into a first position in which the rigid limb is directly behind the output shaft (7) of the drill so preventing rearward movement of the shaft and enabling the drill to operate in a non-hammer mode, and a second position in which the leaf spring (58) is directly behind the output shaft so allowing rearward movement of the shaft (7) and enabling the drill to operate in a hammer mode.

Abstract: In the present invention, true volt-amperes reactive power is measured by sampling instantaneous voltage values of voltage and substantially simultaneously instantaneous values of current of an arbitrary waveform, multiplying the voltage samples by the discrete Hilbert transform (corrected by a sign inversion) to obtain voltage samples of all frequencies shifted by -90° over the bandwidth of the signal of interest and then multiplying this quadrature voltage sample by the corresponding current samples to obtain a true value for VARs, i.e., proportional to the instantaneous volt-amperes reactive power under all conditions. The sampling rate and the period of sampling determine the bandwidth and accuracy of the sampling technique. The invention can be implemented in software or in suitable hardware components capable of sampling and delaying the signal of interest.

Abstract: Conveyed on a conveyor (10) are work carriers (12) which can be received by a positioning and holding device (15) so that the workpieces located on them can be machined. A stopping device (30) is arranged in the conveying direction behind the positioning and holding device (15). A leading work carrier (I) is stopped by the stopping device in such a way that a following work carrier (II) comes to a stop exactly in the receiving position of the positioning and holding device (15). Exact positioning and singularisation of the work carriers without precision control of a singularising element is thereby possible. A leading work carrier (I) remains at the stop (34) until it has stopped a trailing work carrier (II) in the positioning and holding device (15). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a sample temperature-control device, in particular for NMR spectroscopy, which has a container (20) having an opening (19) for receiving a test sample (1), an inlet opening (20) for admitting a fluid, an outlet opening (15) for discharging the fluid and a flow channel (18) through which at least one subflow of the fluid is fed past the test sample (1) as a direct fluid flow (8) from the bottom upwards, at least one bypass channel (17) is provided which is designed so that a further subflow of the fluid can be fed past the upper region of the test sample (1) as a bypass fluid flow (7). As a result, the upper part of the test sample (1) can also be effectively temperature-controlled, thereby minimising the temperature gradient inside the test sample (1). In the upper region of the test sample (1), the sample temperature-control device may have a heat-exchange device (14) which concentrates the combined direct fluid flow (8) and the bypass fluid flow (7) around the sample (1). This achieves an effective temperature control of the upper section of the test sample by the combined fluid flow without interfering thermal obstructions.

Abstract: An optical pulse (Op) of a fixed width (D) is applied to an optical fiber (13), back scattering light from the optical fiber is converted to an electric signal, which is converted to a digital signal by sampling with a fixed period. In a difference calculating section (26) an average of digital signals at a first sample point and at W sample points preceding the first sample point is used as data at the first sample point, and an average of digital signals at a second sample point and at W sample points following the second sample point, which is after the first sample point by a number of sample points corresponding to the width of the optical pulse, is used as data at the second sample point. The difference between the data at the first sample point and the data at the second sample point is calculated for each of a series of sample points to obtain difference waveform data. Changing points of the difference waveform data are detected and a spliced point of the optical fiber is decided, based on the detected changing points.

Abstract: A main memory for a high-performance processor is provided using DRAM. The DRAM is divided into multiple memory banks (20A ... 20D), and each are set up with different row addresses based on power reset code, data, and movement of the address access separated by data and code dominance. As a result, the number of wait states required for DRAM access is reduced, and the number of successful memory accesses is increased. Each of the memory banks defined in the DRAM contains different pages of memory. This improves the overall system access because the page access of DRAM is the same as for a static RAM. A look-ahead algorithm is implemented to predict which pages will be required, so that these pages can be provided to the DRAM memory banks.

Abstract: An airplane pitch guidance control law and display symbol for a Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) is disclosed. The control law converts a TCAS computer-generated vertical air speed command into a pitch guidance command. The pitch guidance command controls the location of a symbol (51) on the pitch axis of an electronic attitude display (21) that guides a pilot toward a pitch attitude that will result in a vertical speed that eliminates a collision threat. The preferred symbol is a pitch axis leg (53) and a pair of outwardly diverging legs (55a, 55b). The pitch axis leg (53) defines the minimum climb or descent attitude required to achieve a safe climb or descent angle. The pitch axis leg (53) and the diverging legs (55a, 55b) combine to define a climb or descent attitude range to avoid. The distance between the pitch axis leg 53 and the boresight 39 of the airplane symbol of the display is controlled by a RA CMD  signal produced by: subtractively combining the vertical speed command (V STCAS ) produced by a TCAS II computer and the vertical speed of the airplane (V SIND ); multiplying the result by a sensitivity factor K whose value is related to the true air speed of the airplane and 57.3 to approximate the arc tangent of the quotient; and subtracting a factor that compensates for the fact that flight path angle changes lag pitch attitude changes.
