Abstract: A bi-directional signal transmission system comprises a bi-directional signal path with a low-impedance section coupled to a high-impedance section through a signal coupling for transmission of a binary signal in both directions; and adapting means for adapting the signal coupling under control of the signal itself, dependent on the transmission direction. 1 2 C-bus systems in particular benefit from the presence of the adapting means since communicating stations now can be located farther apart than was practical previously. In addition, the driving capability of the transmitting station is no longer a limiting factor.

Abstract: The present Application discloses a device for scanning a record carrier (1) which comprises essentially parallel tracks (20). The device comprises a read head (4) for scanning the record carrier, during which operation a scanning point is moved across the record carrier. The read head (4) comprises a detector (30) for producing detection signals (AS,...,FS) which depend on the location of the scanning point relative to the tracks (20). A first signal processor (5) is arranged for deriving a tracking error signal (RE) and a track position signal (TP) from the detected signals (AS,...,FS). A comparator (7) detects whether the track position signal intersects a first threshold (D1). A comparator (6) detects whether the tracking error signal is located within an amplitude window established by a second positive threshold (D2) and a third negative threshold (D3). A signal processor (8) derives a track loss signal from the results of the detections performed by the comparators (6, 7), which track loss signal denotes that the scanning point no longer follows the track. In addition, the track loss signal is not produced until an intersection of the first threshold by the track position signal is detected and, furthermore, a presence of the tracking error signal outside of the amplitude window is detected during a specific time window around this intersection.

Abstract: An automatic molten metal supplying device capable of supplying the molten metal within a short period of time with maintaining accuracy in supplying amount and without any dripping of the molten metal from a ladle and without any temperature decrease of the molten metal in the ladle during its transferring state even if the transferred molten metal has a small volume. A molten metal intake/discharge port is formed at a bottom portion of a ladle, and atmosphere communication/blockage unit is provided which selectively communicates an internal space of the ladle with an atmosphere. After the molten metal is introduced into the ladle through the intake/discharge port, the space is shut off from the atmosphere. A cross-sectional area of the intake/discharge port is in a range of from 20 to 80 mm 2 . Lower limit of the cross-sectional area of the intake/discharge port is still sufficient to allow the molten metal to be flowed into the ladle, and upper limit thereof is sufficient to prevent the molten metal in the ladle from being dripped therefrom. Thus, small amount of the molten metal can rapidly and accurately casted.

Abstract: A system interrupt signal for a disk array is generated by selectively combining interrupt signals received from individual disk drives and other interrupt signal sources within the disk array. The circuit for generating the system interrupt signal includes a first logic circuit (140) for combining a first group of selected interrupt signals to generate a group interrupt signal having an active state when each one of the signals in the first group is at an active state, and a second logic circuit (120) which combines a second group of selected interrupt signals to generate an independent interrupt signal having an active state when any one of the interrupt signals of the second group has an active state. The group and independent interrupt signals are gated together to generate a common system interrupt signal. The first and second logic circuits (120,140) can be reconfigured to combine, pass or ignore interrupt signals as selected by the system user. The circuit includes filtering and latching circuits (160,170) to prevent interference with an existing array interrupt signal during reconfiguration of the group or independent interrupt logic circuits (120,140).

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for generating the clock signal of a predetermined frequency f(UART) for a smart card interface, the interface being used for transferring data from a smart card to a device e.g. a mobile telephone at a predetermined data rate f(D). Using a phase-locked loop (PLL) and a number of programmable counters (N1-N4), the output of the circuit i.e. the smart card interface clock signal can have a frequency f(UART) which is a multiple of the data rate. In particular, the counters (N1-N4) and phase-locked loop (PLL) can be chosen so that f(UART) is sixteen times f(D) which allows a Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter circuit to be used in the interface.

Abstract: The apparatus comprises first and second pressure sensors (1,2) which are biased by corresponding devices (5) in positions along the artery so as to detects the arterial pulses on the heart and peripheral sides, respectively. First and second detectors (resp. 10 & 16) are provided to indicate when the outputs from the respective pressure sensors (1,2) are above a predetermined level. A biasing pressure controller adjusts the biasing force exerted by biasing devices (5) to a blood flow passage restricted condition in which a detection output is obtained by the second level detector (16). A timer (12) measures a first period of time after the first level detector detects that the detection output signal from the first pressure sensor exceeds a predetermined level, and a second period of time after a notch occurs in the detection output signal from the first pressure sensor, until a notch occurs in the detection output signal from the second pressure sensor (2). A circuit outputs a signal from the timer (12) as blood circulating function detection data. These data are obtained from information on the notch portion in the detection output signals from the first and second pressure sensors on a blood flow passage restricted condition in which the detection output signal is obtained by the second level detector.

Abstract: A method and system for creating a compressed data representation of a human speech utterance which may be utilized to accurately regenerate the human speech utterance. First, the location and occurrence of each period of silence, voiced sound and unvoiced sound within the speech utterance is detected. Next, a single representative data frame which may be repetitively utilized to approximate each voiced sound is iteratively determined, along with the duration of each voiced sound. The spectral content of each unvoiced sound, along with variations in the amplitude thereof is also determined. A compressed data presentation is then created which includes encoded representations of a duration of each period of silence, a duration and single representative data frame for each voiced sound and a spectral content and amplitude variations for each unvoiced sound. The compressed data representation may then be utilized to regenerate the speech utterance without substantial loss in intelligibility.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for forming glass articles by press molding. In this process, molten glass is deposited by a gob discharge station into a female mold held by a first transfer machine. The transfer machine moves the mold containing formable material to a fixed anvil of a molding station where an article of desired shape is formed by moving a male forming member into the mold. A second transfer machine then moves the mold containing the article of desired shape to a cooling station where the glass article is cooled. The second transfer machine removes the mold from the cooling station and inverts it to separate the article from the mold. The mold is then returned to the molding station, where the first transfer machine again inverts the mold. The now empty mold is returned to the gob discharge station for deposition of a new gob of molten glass therein.

Abstract: A control system emulates a multi-tasking environment using a single tasking processor A number of predefined tasks are provided in a task library. When a host application (120) needs processed data from a data source (12), the host application (120) creates a pipeline (40) of initialized instantiations of one or more of the tasks (40A,40B,40C) from the task library. When the host application (120) invokes the pipeline (40), the data request is made from the host application (120) to a downstream-most section (40C) of the pipeline. The data request ripples upstreamwardly to the upstream-most instantiation of one of the tasks (40A) from the task library. The upstream-most instantiation of a task obtains data from a data source (12) and returns it downstreamwardly to the host application (120), each instantiation of a task from the task library further operating on the data.

Abstract: An automatic clutch controller for a vehicle that reduces the oscillatory response to clutch engagement. The automatic clutch controller receives inputs from an engine speed sensor and a transmission input speed sensor and develops a clutch actuation signal controlling a clutch actuator from disengaged to fully engaged. The clutch engagement signal at least partially engages the friction clutch in a manner to cause the measured transmission input speed to asymptotically approach engine speed employing an approximate inverse model of this oscillatory response. The automatic clutch controller preferably includes a slip integral function and a differential engine speed function, which together adaptively adjust clutch engagement corresponding to vehicle loading. The automatic clutch controller includes a prefilter and a compensator constructed to reduce the need for detailed particularization for individual vehicles or vehicle models. 
     A lag compensation function in the compensator adds robustness to the system by increasing low frequency gain. A freeze function suspends operation of the slip integral, the prefilter and the compensator during engine deceleration or when throttle position is high and engine speed is low, to moderate or stop clutch advance to prevent engine overloading.

Abstract: The system uses two very inexpensive rotary encoders (41, 51) in combination -- a close-coupled one (41, 243 b) (or more) for high accuracy, and a remote-coupled one (51) for high resolution. High-accuracy information (44) is then combined with high resolution information (54) in a digital processing system (61) to yield composite information that is high in both accuracy and resolution. This information can be used (62) to establish image positioning (13) on a print medium (1). The overall system cost is lower than with an equivalent single encoder. Insidious cyclical errors in the coupling system (gear train or the like) (21) are removable without expensive high tolerances and assembly or text fixtures. Residual cyclical error due to eccentric mounting or other error in the direct-coupled encoder scale (42, 242) also can be substantially removed, if desired, by adding another one (243 b) or more encoders reading that scale (242), and suitably combining the information about that scale (242) from the different sensors (243). The information is combined in such a way that the systematic cyclical errors cancel -- or are quantified for use in explicit correction.
