Date Mar. 22, 1990.A read-out circuit for a photodetector incorporates a photodiode detector (1) connected via a preamplifier (2) to a storage capacitor (C5). The capacitor (C5) is also connected to a constant current circuit (Cc, T3 to T7) providing a correction current controlled by a voltage on a reference capacitor (Cc). The reference capacitor (Cc) is charged by the amplified photodiode output current during a calibration phase. During a measurement phase, the storage capacitor (C5) integrates the difference between the amplified photodiode output current and the correction current. This provides pedestal signal substraction at the signal integration point. An array of photodetectors may be provided with a corresponding array of read-out circuits integrated in a single semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: System for collecting, by means of a vehicle (A), refuse contained in bins (B) fixed on to a fixed support (S, D) by means of an arm (C). Another arm (F) fixed to the vehicle raises a bearing point of the bin (B) and an extension arm causes it to tilt over a feed opening leading to a zone (E) for compacting the refuse. A flap compresses the refuse and the opening of a shutter then causes them to pass into a refuse bin (H). The removal of rubbish is therefore entirely automatic. The bins (B) are lockable. Application to public places provided with bins having a fixed position and which are located at closely-spaced intervals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Before articles are fed to a step of electrostatic painting, they are first made to pass through the interior of a chilling chamber inside which the temperature is 5 DEG C maximum, due to the effect of the presence of one or more cryogenic gas(es), in either liquid or gas form, selected from among those cryogenic gases whose boiling temperature is equal to, or lower than, said temperature value. Immediately after leaving said chilling chamber, the chilled articles are placed into an atmosphere containing water vapour before being fed to the step of electrostatic painting, a layer of frost having been formed on the surface of the articles from the condensation of water vapour contained in said atmosphere. An apparatus suitable for carrying out the process is also disclosed.

Abstract: When a blank is cut from metal sheet which suffers from crystallographic anisotropy, there is a tendency for ears to be formed during subsequent forming operations, such as drawing or pressing. In order to compensate for this tendency, there may be used a metal blank which is not completely round, but has lobes at positions to cancel at least some of the valleys between the ears. There is described a punch (110) and die (111) which may be used to form such a lobed blank (112). The punch (110) has four circumferentially extending lobe-forming sections (124). Each lobe-forming section is constructed by forming a stepped recess in the cutting edge of the punch (110). In each lobe-forming section, the depth of the recess varies from a maximum at the middle of the section to zero at the ends. The die (111) is conventional.

Abstract: The invention relates to a surge arrester comprising a stack of arrester elements (1), for example of zinc oxide, arranged between two end electrodes (2) in an elongated insulating casing (3) of polymeric material, for example EPDM rubber. To mechanically reinforce the arrester, a tube (4) of fibre-reinforced plastic is arranged between the stack of arrester elements (1) and the polymer insulator (3). This tube (4) is manufactured by profile drawing, so-called pultrusion, whereby all reinforcement fibres extend in the axial direction of the tube. This gives the tube (4) a high tensile strength while at the same time the strength in the radial direction is relatively low. This is advantageous in the event of an arrester failure with an internal short circuit, since the tube will then easily crack up and provide a rapid pressure relief without any explosion hazard.

Date Apr. 1, 1993.A pilot-operated diaphragm valve adapted to deliver a compressed air pulse from its outlet includes a valve top and valve trigger sub-assembly that cooperate to cycle a flexible diaphragm of the valve toward and away from a diaphragm seat by application of an electric solenoid or external pneumatic pulse applied to the valve trigger. The valve top and trigger sub-assembly enclose a reciprocable hollow plunger that normally is held against a seat at its lower end by a reciprocable solid plunger supported for sliding movement above the hollow plunger in a sealed tube and biased by a spring into engagement with the hollow plunger. Activation of the solenoid or external pneumatic signal pulse drives the solid plunger out of engagement with the hollow plunger which in turn unseats producing low pressure above the diaphragm. The low pressure unseats the diaphragm allowing a high energy pulse of air to escape past the diaphragm through the outlet. Deactivation of the solenoid causes the solid plunger, hollow plunger, and diaphragm to return to their seated positions to stop the flow of air through the outlet.
