Patent EP-0119727-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CARTER ANDREW C
IPC: G02B6/42
Filed: 1984-02-14
Abstract: A method for accurately aligning an optical fibre with a light source comprises firstly approximately aligning the axis of the fibre with the source (eg. a laser) and locating two prismatic elements between the end of the fibre and the source. One or both of the prismatic elements is then moved to focus the image of the light source on to the end of the fibre and secured in position.The method can be described as an «optical lever» as the movement of one of the prismatic elements causes a much smaller movement of the image and the method is thus very accurate.The prismatic elements can be any transparent members which produce an output beam which is angularly displaced from the input beam such as conventional prisms, gratings, diffused lenses or weak decentred lenses. Preferably they are cylindrical transparent rods with one end of each arranged at an acute angle to its axis.

Abstract: A fifth wheel hitch having a set of jaws (32, 34) removably retained in a pocket (20m) on the underside of the bearing plate (12), replaceable by like jaws or by jaws accommodating a different size kingpin. The hitch can be of forged aluminium, for on-highway or off-highway usage. A swinging jaw (34) is pivotally connected to a fixed jaw (32), and has a lower closure finger (34e) contacted by the head of a properly elevated kingpin to close the jaws. The jaws are locked closed by a locking plunger (46) actuated with full jaw closure, by means of a trigger release mechanism (34e, 74, 748). The trigger and plunger are retracted by a slide cam (50) having actuators (60, 62) extending from both sides of the hitch. Means (80, 82) is provided for adjustment of the jaws for wear from the hitch exterior, such means being effectual whether the hitch is coupled or uncoupled.

Abstract: © A television scrambling and descrambling system is disclosed. Transmitter circuit (16, 18) switch between any two consecutive segments of a signal causing delay times which differ from each other by a significant fraction of the horizontal sweep time, thereby scrambling the signal. Switches (40, 42) in the descrambler switch between consecutive time segments corresponding in number and complementary in delay times with the scrambler signal consecutive segments. Differences in the delays of the consecutive segments are provided in one arrangement by surface acoustic wave delay lines (22, 37) in one of at least two signal paths. In another case, a delay line comprising a charge-coupled device (CCD) provides the consecutive signal segments having delay times which differ from each other. Horizontal retrace intervals are detected by a pulse generator (26) which drives the switching between paths or provides clock pulses for the CCD during the horizontal intervals. Switching information is modulated on to an interfering signal (28) which is demodulated by an AM demodulator (48) in the descrambler.

Abstract: A crossed light beam coordinate detection and encoding system (100) having a plurality of emitter/detector pairs (104,114; 106,116) along each axis of the display space is disclosed. The emitters (104, 106) are modulated in amplitude and the detectors (114,116) are biased with a low load resistance to provide a wide dynamic range. The wide dynamic range and amplitude modulation detection provides immunity to unwanted interference. After band pass filtering, the carrier is amplified by high gain amplifier with auto bias control. The output of the amplifier generates a trueffalse output corresponding to the presence/absence of a beam. A single chip microprocessor controller (110) checks the screen for interrupted beams and when not clear generates coordintes of the interrupted beams. The coordinates can be calculated as a weighted average of the interrupted beams for each axis or as the min and max coordinates along each axis. Reporting is done repeatedly at preselected time intervals. Error information is generated each time the coordinates are generated to report errors such as too large to too small an object or a discontinuous object. Repeated reportings beyond the initial reporting of a coordinate of the interrupted beams can be locked out in response to the position of the interrupted beams in the display space. Diagnostics of the system can be performed at 100% and 90% output levels of the emitters (104, 106). This allows diagnostics to detect marginal operation of the screen.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a double edged grooving insert 10 in the form of an irregular hexahedron in which cutting edge A is in a plane substantially but not entirely at right angles (due to the required geometry) to cutting edge B. The surface 12 extending away from the cutting edge A towards the end of the insert at which cutting edge B is positioned narrows in width. Each cutting edge A and B provides the maximum dimension of the insert when in an operable position and when measured along any line parallel to the cutting edge. Thus, clearance is provided for the cutting tool to pass down the groove, the cutting depth of which is unlimited by the configuration of the insert. When cutting edge B is placed in a working position in the grooving tool, the surface 14 containing cutting edge B increases in width from the end of the insert at which cutting edge A is positioned towards the cutting edge B.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for disposal of waste material, that may include toxic chemical waste, wherein the wastes are combusted in a combustion unit with combustion gases directly discharged into a refractory lined housing having a plurality of ceramic filters disposed in the gas outlet wall thereof. The combustion gases are maintained in the refractory lined housing for a period of time sufficient to effect combustion of the major portion of residual vaporous waste constituents therein and then passed through the ceramic filters to remove the remainder of said vaporous waste constituents and the residual solid waste constituents The waste-free, hot combustion gases, after passage through the filters, are directed to a heat exchanger for recovery of heat values therefrom. Soils contaminated with a toxic chemical waste may be decontaminated by charging the soil as a portion of a combustible waste charge to the combustion unit, with the toxic chemical waste subjected to combustion, with the resultant decontaminated soil, along with ash from the combustible waste used as a landfill.

Abstract: The assembly for bridging over expansion joints comprises sealing band of elastic material which bridges over the joint, which sealing band, for being secured in upward open cavities, includes thickenings substantially filling up said cavities and extending in joint edge profiles at both sides in the longitudinal direction of the profile. Said thickenings include a support surface engaging in the inserted position with an appropriate pressing surface of the joint edge profile, said thickening being wedged in the cavity by means of a bulge formed thereon. Said thickening includes a nose formed thereon, which in the inserted position is pressed together in a manner that in the marginal portions of the cavity between the thickening and the joint edge profile there is a contact pressure. Thus it can be avoided that under the effect of any forces there opens a slit between the sealing band and the joint edge profile, whereinto moisture or dirt may make their way.

Abstract: In an exchange line which is terminated by a transformer which is DC-decoupled from the line in the respective exchange junction circuit, an "electronic choke" is used instead of a conventional holding choke in order to allow loop current to flow. It is constructed as a bridge circuit which has a low-impedance (R1, T) and a high-impedance (R2, C2, R3) half. The diagonal which is not directly connected to the operating voltage contains, for the purpose of bridge calibration, a differential amplifier (DV), the output of which is coupled to the control connection of the electronic switch (T) arranged in the low-impedance half of the bridge. To suppress high-frequency signals coupled in, the operating voltage for the bridge circuit and/or for the differential amplifier (DV) is supplied via a low-pass section (R4, C3 and R5, C1). <IMAGE>
