Title: Oil feeding arrangement in an automatic transmission
Inventor: KAUFFELD RUDOLF
IPC: F16H61/00
Filed: 1996-09-07
Abstract: The gear transmission includes pressure channels arranged coaxially in rotating shafts so that oil flows under pressure from adjacent components into the channels through coaxially arranged connection channels which move relatively w.r.t. each other. A tube (168, 230) connects the connection channel with the pressure channel, and is firmly fixed at one end and held at the other end through a bearing (237, 171) in a sealed manner. The length of the tube is pref. greater than five times its outer diameter, and a ring-like space is formed between the reed and the shaft, which functions as a further oil channel.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for scanning and final processing of original images, wherein pre-scanning functions are limited to those which can be carried out independently of the scanning and final processing functions, and wherein each original image is scanned only once at the a spatial resolution and digital data accuracy at least as great as those required for final processing. No preview scan or other image processing steps are carried out prior to scanning. An image so acquired is stored in an image server, accessible to one or more post-scanning image processing workstations, and all final image processing operations are performed using the original image data obtained from the image server. The stored image can be archived for later use, serving as a digital replica of the original.

Abstract: Spectral broadening over a large range using PM (Phase Modulation) is achieved by a lightwave source without the need for a large phase modulation index and without expending a large amount of modulator RF drive power. In this lightwave source, a laser output signal is externally phase modulated by one or more modulation signals. The phase modulation employs one or more frequency drive signals (i.e., the modulation signals) each of whose amplitude is judiciously selected to produce an output spectrum having substantially equal spectral components over a predetermined range of frequencies. The predetermined frequency range is centered about the source frequency for the laser and resembles a comb. Each frequency drive signal is also selected to have a frequency (or frequency spacing from other drive signals) so that adjacent spectral components in the output spectrum of the modulated signal are produced with a frequency spacing which exceeds the SBS (Stimulated Brillouin Scattering) interaction bandwidth at the transmission wavelength of interest.

Abstract: A rolling cutter drill bit has multiple rows of gage reaming inserts (30, 32) mounted in the gage face of the cutters (18, 20, 22). A first interlocking row of gage reaming inserts (30) is positioned on the gage face of a cutter in close proximity to the gage row (26), such that the reaming inserts are closely adjacent to the mouth of the gage insert sockets. A second non-interlocking row of gage reaming inserts (32) is positioned on the gage face of the cutter such that the reaming insert sockets are a predetermined minimum distance from the gage insert sockets and first reaming row sockets, thereby enabling a maximum number of large diameter reaming inserts to be placed in the second reaming row. Both the first and second reaming row inserts (30, 32) are sized and placed to maintain a desired distance between all insert sockets without affecting the size and spacing of gage row inserts (26).

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for scheduling target program instructions during the code optimization pass of an optimizing compiler. Most modem microprocessors have the ability to issue multiple instructions in one clock cycle and/or possess multiple pipelined functional units. They also have the ability to add two values to form the address within memory load and store instructions. In such microprocessors this invention can, where applicable, accelerate the execution of modulo-scheduled loops. The invention consists of a technique to achieve this speed up by systematically reducing the number of certain overhead instructions in modulo scheduled loops. The technique involves identifying reducible overhead instructions, scheduling the balance of the instructions with normal modulo scheduling procedures and then judiciously inserting no more than three copies of the reducible instructions into the schedule.

Abstract: Even when recording sheets (P) are fed from different storage means by switching over among a plurality of recording-sheet storage means (106a, 106b, 106c, 106d, 113), recording sheets are fed to image transfer means (101) always at a constant timing, so that the copying operation is executed at high copying efficiency and with reliability. Recording sheets (P) stored in a cassette (106a) are fed one by one to a conveyance path (108a) by a sheet feed roller (109a). The recording sheets (P) retained in an intermediate tray (113) are fed one by one to a conveyance path (115) by a sheet feed roller (114). The timings at which the sheet feed rollers (109a, 114), which are first drive rollers, are driven are controlled in such a way that a register roller (160), which is a second drive roller, can be driven at a constant cycle time with respect to a plurality of recording sheets (P) fed from the conveyance path (108a, 115). Even when the cassette (106a) and the tray (113) are switched over, the register roller (160) is driven always at a constant cycle time. Thus, the image forming operation can be executed by feeding recording sheets (P) in synchronization with the image-reading timing.

at least two resilient bands (30a,30b) secured to the strip of material (18).
The resiliency of the bands (30a,30b) acts to stabilise the outer wall tissue
(60,62) and thereby prevents the outer wall tissue (60,62) of the nasal
passages (54,56) from drawing in during breathing.

Abstract: A track (2) extends between a winding mechanism (8, 12, 40) and
resilient tensioning means (4, 22). Rotation of a handle (40) causes a track end
housing carrying one end of the track (2) to be moved against the force of an
elastic cord (22) of the resilient tensioning means. Further rotation of the handle
(40) releases the track end housing (8) and allows the resilience of the cord (22)
to return the track towards its initial position. The coefficient of friction of the
track (2) is sufficiently high that model horses carried thereon generally move
with the track. Thus, during the movement of the track (2), the horses move first
towards the winding mechanism (8, 12) and then back towards the resilient
tensioning means (4, 22). However, the first movement towards the winding
mechanism is much slower than the return, and the return movement is abruptly
stopped. When the return movement ceases the horses continue to move, and
therefore move relative to the track towards the resilient tensioning means.
Thus, the horses are caused to move along the track (2). The movement of
individual horses is at differing speeds so that the apparatus enables a horse
racing game to be simulated.

The central station has a private (PR) and a public (PU) key pair. The public keys are known to each terminal and the private key is known only to the central station. One key is used to encode the data and the other to decode it.

Abstract: A target analyte which may be found in a substance, such as a biological or
environmental substance, is assayed by inoculating a media with a sample of the
substance. The target analyte is a unique nucleotide sequence of the RNA or DNA of
a suspect organism, or any nucleotide target, or a combination of nucleotide
sequences thereof, which organism may be found in the substance. The media
contains selected target analyte amplifiers which will result in the amplification of any
target analytes which are present in the substance. The media may also contain one
or more labeled analyte-specific materials (LASMs) which can migrate through the
media. The nature of the media is such that it will support target analyte-copying but
will not allow the target analyte to migrate extensively within the media. After the
substance to be assayed is added to the media and any target analytes are amplified,
the LASMs will migrate by diffusion to resultant target analyte units or colonies in the
media, thereby creating intensely labeled localized areas in the media which can be
visually or mechanically detected. Each of the intensely labeled areas in the media
will be surrounded by low intensity label halos. The number of high intensity labeled
sites in the media will be proportional to the concentration of target analytes in the
substance.
