Abstract: A piezoresistive MEMS oscillator uses an output circuit (31) to control the voltage across the resonator body (20). This results in a DC bias of the resonator. A current path is provided between the output (32) of the output circuit (31) and the resonator body (20) such that changes in current through or voltage across the resonator body, resulting from changes in resistance of the resonator body, are coupled to the output. This arrangement uses the bias current flowing through the resonator to derive the output. In this way, the same DC current is used to provide the required DC resonator bias and to drive the output circuit to its DC operating point. The benefit of this arrangement is a reduced power-consumption.  In addition, when using an arrangement where a virtual-earth for the resonator to amplifier connection is employed, a reduced sensitivity for bond pad capacitances and other stray capacitances is obtained.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus supporting load balancing in a wireless communications system implementing decentralized control are described. Different channels, e.g., unused TV channels, are available in different locations for use for communications. Various communications technologies, e.g., WiFi, 3G Blue-Tooth, etc., may be supported by a communications device and may be allowed to be used on the available channels. A wireless communications device evaluates its current local environment, e.g., estimating potential rates that it may use and/or estimating latency, for each of a plurality of available alternative channel/technology combinations. The wireless communications device selects a channel and technology combination to use as a function of its estimates. The wireless communications device uses its selected channel and technology combination for communications, e.g., for peer to peer communications including direct peer to peer traffic signaling as part of a local peer to peer network.

Abstract: A recording system, and reproducing system, for use in making and reproducing video disc records, wherein each recorded frame represents one or more frames of an original video program (10), as designated by a frame repeat count (74), encoded with the video information. In the system, the program is preprocessed to designate sets of consecutive frames that will be recorded as a single frame, together with an encoded frame repeat count, and time delay circuits (20) are employed to provide an audio signal for each of the original frames, all of which are recorded with the single video frame. In the reproducing system, the frame repeat counts are decoded, successively counted down, and used to control movement of a reading transducer (78) either to repeat a frame or to read a next frame from the recording. The repeat count is also employed to select an appropriate audio signal for reproduction with each video frame.

Abstract: In an apparatus for girding packages with endless synthetic-resin strips, an assembly for bonding the ends of a web segment to one another comprises a press in the form of a fixed surface and a spring-loaded press bar shiftably mounted in a rotating truncated drum along a diameter thereof. An outer tangentially extending surface of the bar has a rotation path interrupted by the fixed surface. The drum also carries a blade forming one side of a wedge-shaped channel for guiding a trailing web-segment end during a bonding phase of an operating cycle. Upon the beginning of the bonding phase a leading web portion surrounds the package and traverses the drum channel. The rotation of the drum causes the press bar to clamp the web to the fixed surface, whereupon the blade cuts the web and produces a web segment having a trailing end. A heating mandrel pivoted into a wedge-shaped space between a leading web-segment end and the fixed surface on one side and the trailing web-segment end and the press bar on the other side slips over a surface of the trailing web-segment and, while being pushed towards a rest position by the rotating press bar. The press bar squeezes the heated segment end to the other end in a sweeping motion.

Abstract: Concentrated alcohol and distillery slop are produced from fermented beer with a reduced amount of energy by employing a vapor recompression distillery slop evaporator in which evaporator vapors are used to strip alcohol from the fermented liquor before they are returned as the heat source for evaporation. Vents in the evaporator permit passage of uncondensed vapors used to drive the evaporator to a rectifier, in which they constitute the principal heat and alcohol source. Condensed vapors from the evaporator and the bottom stream from the rectifier are stripped of their remaining alcohol content in a condensate stripper, which is also driven by the recompressed vapors from the evaporator. This prevents dilution of the slops and the additional energy cost that would be necessary if the water content of these streams had to be removed in the slop evaporator.

Abstract: In circular knitting machines one source of imperfection in the finished fabric is vibration arising at the point of meshing between a ring gear for the needle cylinder and a driving pinion. In accordance with the invention, this is overcome or mitigated by lengthening the transmission path between the ring gear and the needle cylinder and also by inclusion, where appropriate, of a vibration damping device. As shown in Fig. 1, a needle cylinder (20) is mounted on a disc (21) on a hollow shaft (22) driven by a wheel (24). Drive to the wheel (24) is from a ring gear (40), mounted on a support ring (12), via transmission arms (26). A vibration disperser or damping device has a ring shaped end (31) clamping a hub portion of a support table (13) in which a shaft (22) is mounted. The opposite end (30) of the damping device is solid with a separate supporting frame (16) which also mounts a drive (M and 80) for a pinion (41) in mesh with the ring gear (40).

Abstract: Keyboard assembly including a switching assembly (20) having a plurality of pressure-operated switches (24) and a key array (12) overlying the switching assembly (20) and having a plurality of keys (36) formed integrally with a support (38), each key (36) being hinged at one side to the support (38) and having switch actuating means (44) formed integrally therewith. A disadvantage of prior art arrangements of this kind is that the force of restoring the operated key to its home position is not sufficiently positive for entirely satisfactory operation, as the arrangement relies on the resilience of the hinges and of the switch for restoring the key. The invention overcomes this disadvantage by providing switch actuators (44) of a resilient construction which are arranged to assist in restoring the respective key (36) to its home position following operation of the key (36). In a preferred embodiment, each switch actuator (44) has a first end connected to one side of the respective key (36) by means of a toggle hinge (46, 48, 50) and has a second, free end (56) extending across the key (36) to a position beyond the opposite side of the key (36).

Abstract: An optical fiber bidirectional amplifier includes a pair of small diameter optical fibers (12a, 12b), arranged in a side- by-side configuration, the first fiber (12a) providing a pumping source and the second fiber (12b) doped with a material which will lase at the frequency of the signal to be amplified. The signal to be amplified propagates through the second fiber (12b) to stimulate emission of coherent light from the lasing material, resulting in amplification of the signal. The refractive index of the first and second fibers (12a, 12b) is substantially identical, but the coupling characteristic provided by the geometrical relationship between the pair of fibers (12a, 12b) yields a wavelength dependent coupling efficiency. Specifically, the coupling efficiency at the wave- lenght of the pumping source is relatively high, while the coupling efficiency at the wavelength of the signal to be amplified is relatively low. Thus, the pumping illumination is coupled from the first fiber (12a) to the second fiber (12b) to stimulate the doping material in the second fiber (12b), while the signal to be amplified remains relatively uncoupled, and is amplified by the coherent light emitted by the lasing material.
