Title: Catadioptric lens with low central obstruction
Inventor: GALLERT FRANK
IPC: G02B17/08
Filed: 1996-09-19
Abstract: As seen in the direction of the incoming light, a hyperbolic collecting mirror (1) with central bore (4) forms a cassegrain configuration with a smaller hyperbolic scattering mirror (2). Optical components (3a-d) of a lens-corrector have a common optical axis. Incoming parallel light from the collecting mirror is reflected onto the scattering one, which in return reflects with reduced convergence through the bore onto the corrector. From there, the light passes into the illustration plane (5), into which a detector (6) can be inserted. The corrector consists of a first collecting lens of meniscus form (3a) towards the incoming light, two biconcave scattering ones (3b,3c), and a collecting one (3d). The latter can be biconvex, while the meniscus and scatter ones can be of the same optical material. The mirrors can form a Ritchey-Chretien system.

Patent DE-19707290-A1 (DE)
Title: Coding and transmission method for information signals
Inventor: DIRR JOSEF DIPL ING
IPC: H04L27/34
Filed: 1997-02-24
Abstract: Pulses of preset length are used for the code elements, represented by the half or full periods of the alternation of the same frequency and phase position,  These are transmitted in an uninterrupted train. The change of the pulse phase position is carried out by a decrease or increase of the half period number, with respect to the previous or reference pulse.  The preceding or lagging phase position is used as a time stage. A non-discernible phase stage change is marked by amplitude change, or a multistage pulse duration coding is generated by a single alternation of one frequency and phase position, formed by an even number of periods.  The stages are presented by specified period changes.
Patent DE-19707904-A1 (DE)
Title: Holder for locating fishing rod on bank
Inventor: LIERO MARCO
IPC: A01K97/10
Filed: 1997-02-27
Abstract: The holder comprises a tubular piece 5 which has a fixing screw (4) at one end.

The image of the elements are taken, digitalised in the computer-storage unit and compared with a reference image. Elements are rejected which do not satisfy the control. The edges of the stone elements concerning eventual breaking away and/or the visible surface composition of the stone with regard to its colour and/or its grain distribution and/or possible pores and/or other openings and/or possible deformations of the stone elements are controlled.
Patent DE-19713399-A1 (DE)
Title: Automatic transmission control system e.g. for toroidal transmission switching between manual and automatic modes
Inventor: NOBUMOTO HIDETOSHI
IPC: B41J32/00
Filed: 1997-04-01
Abstract: The system has a transmission ratio controller for controlling ratio changes to switch the transmission to a new ratio. Continuously moving a manual up shift causes the ratio to be reduced by the ratio controller to shift the transmission up in manual mode. Continuously moving a manual down shift causes the ratio controller to increase the ratio to shift the transmission down in manual mode. A regulator of the transmission ratio controller reduces the rate of change of the ratio for continuous operation of the down shift compared to continuous operation of the up shift.

Title: Indicator lights for vehicle
Inventor: WITTIG ANDREA
IPC: B60Q1/38
Filed: 1997-10-08
Abstract: A system of indicator lights for a vehicle is improved by a four-position switch. This enables the driver to select different signal modes to indicate different maneuvers to other road users and thereby increase road safety. The normal frequency of the direction indicators is used for normal driving. An enhanced frequency is used for more hazardous situations e.g. if the vehicle is going to stop. Another mode of signaling is to activate different colors of signal lamp.
