Abstract: A powered jig saw comprises a holder for a saw blade at
the lower end of the reciprocating drive shaft. The holder
is adjustable, by rotation of an actuating section, between
an open position and a closed position for holding the saw
blade. The actuating section comprises, in the interior of
an upwardly open tube portion of the drive shaft, an
engagement surface which, for the purpose of rotating the
actuating section, engages with a working surface of a
rotatable adjustment device which is stationary when the
drive shaft is driven. The upper end portion of the drive
shaft is mounted, so as to be capable of axial displacement,
in a guide bush, above which there is a holding device of
the adjustment device, in which holding device there is
fixed a downwardly extending element comprising the working
surface. A pendulum mechanism serves to generate a
swivelling movement of the drive shaft. The guide bush, for
the purpose of accommodating the swivelling movement of the
drive shaft generated by the pendulum mechanism, is
pivotally mounted within the housing and the holding device
is supported on the guide bush and held in engagement
therewith by spring force. In this way, tilting or
swivelling of the engagement surface of the actuating
section relative to the working surface of the adjustment
device during the pendulum operation is prevented.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and system are described for transmitting signals in
QPSK, QAM and other similar modulation formats as single sideband (SSB) signals.
An exemplary SSB-QPSK transmitter (60) receives an in-phase data signal x(n) and a
quadrature-phase data signal y(n). The in-phase data signal and a Hilbert transform (74)
of the quadrature-phase data signal are modulated (80) onto a cosine carrier signal, the
quadrature-phase data signal and a Hilbert transform (68) of the in-phase data signal are
modulated (84) onto a sine carrier signal, and the modulated sine and cosine carrier
signals are combined (86) to provide a modulated SSB-QPSK signal. The in-phase and
quadrature-phase data signals are time-aligned signals which are interpolated (62,64)
prior to modulation so as to include zero values at alternating instants of time. Their
corresponding Hilbert transforms therefore also exhibit alternating zero values. During
modulation, the in-phase data signal can thus be interleaved with Hilbert transforms of
the quadrature-phase data signal, and the quadrature-phase data signal can be
interleaved with Hilbert transforms of the in-phase data signal, without any interference
between the signals. Coherent quadrature detection may be used to recover both the in-phase
and quadrature-phase data signals at a receiver.
