Abstract: The temporal variation in the disturbing vibrations is stored with the aid of sensors (ax, ay, az) on the vibrating part of the coordinate measuring machine. Subsequently, the measured values of the sensors are computed together with previously determined and stored correction parameters which describe the natural frequency ( nu ) and the damping ( delta ) of the vibrations as well as the information on amplitude and phase which relates to the natural forms (Gr) of vibration which contribute to the disturbing vibrations. The vibration-induced measurement errors of the coordinate measuring machine are then calculated at the instant of touching from the temporal variation in the corrected measured values of the sensors (ax, ay, az). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A pacemaker including a marker code generator generating marker codes between an indifferent electrode disposed on the pacemaker housing and the pacemaker can serving as a reference electrode. Marker code signals are generated proximate the pacemaker rather than proximate cardiac tissue, and thus can be generated at a large potential for sensing by surface EKG, and can also be generated simultaneously while pacing the heart and not necessarily in the refractory period. The pacemaker facilitates the interpretation of surface EKG, and can be sensed and recorded by commercially available two-channel holter monitors which can be taken home with the patient. Thus, marker code signals can be sensed and recorded while at home and played back for the physician at a later time for analysis. The marker code generator can be selectively turned on by the external programmer such that battery life depreciation is not appreciable. The pacemaker can be adapted with either a unipolar or bipolar endocardial lead.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lockout mechanism (50) for preventing an operator from filling a toner hopper (11, 12, 13, 14) in an electrographic printing device until the hopper (11, 12, 13, 14) is at least empty enough to accept the entire contents of a toner cartridge (24). Interlock mechanism (50) takes advantage of the already existing selector shaft (21) to selectively de-activate lockout members (112) in response to a low toner level transducer (119). Each hopper (11, 12, 13, 14) is provided with a lockout member (112) which is pivotable between a locked out position and a refill position. The locked out position has the lockout members (112) interfering with a connection between toner cartridge (24) and the top of toner hoppers (11, 12, 13, 14). Lockout members (112) are held in their locked out positions by cam follower members (102), which are slidable between an upward locked out position and a downward refill position. A slider member (108) interacts with the cam follower members (102), via follower pins and notches (105, 109), to lock the cam follower members (102) in their upwards position or to allow them to move down against the selector cams (100).

Abstract: An image forming apparatus outputs an operation setting paper sheet (Op-sheet) having printed thereon an operation setting image (template) stored in a data ROM upon operating an operation setting paper sheet output key (OPS key). The image forming apparatus reads the operation setting image on the operation setting paper sheet by a scanner, and sets an operational mode according to selection items in the read image, thereby performing an image forming operation according to the operational mode. By producing a print output of the operation setting image, the operation setting paper sheet in the original form without having a deterioration of the image quality or displacement can be provided with the unique image quality of this image forming apparatus which enables the image to be surely read by the image forming apparatus. Therefore, compared with the case of adopting the conventional operational setting paper sheet to be prepared by repetitively copying the original sheet, an occurrence of reading errors can be suppressed, thereby surely preventing an operation error.

Abstract: A transponder is programmed with an identification code or other information through a write antenna (6) that is smaller in size and has fewer turns than the convention read antenna (22, 24) used for later reading out the programmed information. An RF field that is much stronger than the field normally encountered by the transponder must be used to write information into the transponder. This effectively prevents inadvertent programming of the transponder memory (32) by a read field or electrostatic discharges, and eliminates the need for a special access code and associated circuitry that would otherwise be required for RF programming.

Title: Process for liquefying natural gas
Inventor: SCHMIDT HANS DR-ING
IPC: F25J1/02
Filed: 1995-11-02
Abstract: In a process to liquefy a flow of pressurised natural gas, water and carbon dioxide are removed by an absorptive sepN. process before the residual pre-cleaned natural gas is passed into a heat exchanger, one half of which is supplied by a coolant, and the natural gas liquefied. The absorptive separator assembly is regenerated by a gas, consisting of a mixt. of a flow of pre-cleaned natural gas and flash gas. The novelty is that during the cooling and liquefying process, the natural gas required for regeneration of the absorption assembly is removed at a temp. at which the efficiency of the cooling process is maximised by throttling the regeneration gas pressure.

Abstract: A superscalar complex instruction set computer ("CISC") processor (100) having a reduced instruction set computer ("RISC") superscalar core (110) includes an instruction cache (104) which identifies and marks raw x86 instruction start and end points and encodes "pre-decode" information, a byte queue (106) which is a queue of aligned instruction and pre-decode information of the "predicted executed" state, and an instruction decoder (108) which generates type, opcode, and operand pointer values for RISC-like operations (ROPs) based on the aligned pre-decoded x86 instructions in the byte queue. The instruction decoder includes in each dispatch position a logic-based conversion path (712, 722, 732, 742), a memory-based conversion path (716, 726, 736, 746), and a common conversion path (714, 724, 734, 744) for converting CISC instructions to ROPs. An ROP multiplexer (400) directs x86 instructions from the byte queue to the conversion paths. The ROP multiplexer includes scan logic (690) which rapidly scans the byte queue to generate for each dispatch position an array of bits (ISELx) that identifies the location of the opcode, and ROP information signals (ROPxNUM, ROPxDIFF, PGNXT[x]). The scan logic is segregated into groups of bit processing logic (GP(x,y)) and includes a look-ahead capability (LAG(x)) between groups.

Abstract: An interlock plate is received on an electrical connector which includes a latch to be received in a channel on a mating electrical connector. The plate is selectively movable between locked and unlocked positions, and prevents movement of the latch outwardly of the channel when in the locked position. The electrical connection is made by connecting the two electrical connectors, with the latch moving into the channel. During this initial connection, the plate is received on the electrical connector in the unlocked position. The plate is then moved to the locked position, where it remains while the electrical connection is maintained. At that position, abutments on the plate and the connector prevent movement of the latch outwardly of the channel. Should it be desired to disconnect the electrical connection, the plate is initially moved back to its unlocked position, and the connectors may then be separated. The plate is configured such that it will force the latch into the channel when moved to the locked position should the latch not be fully received within the channel. In addition, the plate prevents connection of the first and second electrical connectors when in the locked position. Finally, structure on the electrical connector and plate insures that the plate is securely retained on the electrical connector during assembly and shipment.

Abstract: A hybrid type of decision feedback equalizer (DFE) structure that approaches optimal DFE performance is described. The hybrid DFE includes both an intersymbol interference DFE (ISI-DFE) and a noise predictive DFE (NP-DFE). The hybrid DFE structure is designed so that one form of tap values dominates over the other. This allows only the dominate tap values to be used by the transmitter during precoding and reduces the transmitter complexity. In particular, a hybrid DFE is designed so that the  I(z)  coefficient values dominate over the  N(z)  coefficient values, where the notation  I(z)  and  N(z) , as known in the art, represent the resulting coefficient values after adaptation of the ISI-DFE and the NP-DFE, respectively. A respective Tomlinson precoding scheme in the transmitter uses only the  I(z)  values. Since only the  I(z)  values are used in the precoder of the transmitter, the NP-DFE of the receiver is kept active during the communications phase. Conveniently, the continued use of the NP-DFE in the receiver allows the receiver to track small changes in the channel.

Abstract: A Zn-Mg binary coating layer formed on a steel sheet has the tri-layered structure that the first sublayer composed of a Zn-Mg alloy having Mg concentration of 0.5 wt.% or less, the second sublayer composed of a Zn-Mg alloy having Mg concentration of 7 wt.% or more and the third sublayer composed of a Zn-Mg alloy having Mg concentration of 0.5 wt.% or less are successively laminated. The coating layer may have the penta-layered structure wherein sublayers composed of a Zn-Mg alloy having Mg concentration of 2-7 wt.% are additionally interposed between the high-Mg and low-Mg sublayers. A Zn-Fe or Zn-Fe-Mg alloy layer may be formed at the boundary between the substrate steel and the coating layer. The adhesion ratio of the first sublayer to the top sublayer is preferably 1.2 or more, while the high-Mg sublayer is preferably conditioned to the mixed structure of a Zn 2 Mg phase with a Mg-dissolved Zn phase. Due to the specified lamellar structure, the intrinsic properties of the high-Mg sublayer is sufficiently exhibited, and the secondary paint adhesiveness of the coating layer is excellent. Consequently, the coated steel sheet is useful as structural members or parts exposed to a severe corrosive atmosphere in various industrial fields.
