Abstract: The control surfaces (11) are formed via rib formations (10) on at least one of the key edges (5,6), the position of which within the key thickness determines the variations. The key has rib formations which are formed by a through, swung control rib on the key edges (5,6). Between the rib formations run inclined connecting sections (12) which are narrower than the rib formations. The rib formations are arranged on the key edges without connecting sections. The control rib or the first rib formation is arranged centrally on the key point (9). The first rib formation runs inclinedly in the direction of the key grip (3) opposite to the central longitudinal plane of the key.

Title: Espagnolette lock
Inventor: BRAND HORST
IPC: E05C17/16
Filed: 1997-07-05
Granted: 2002-10-30
Abstract: The lock has a drive shaft (7), which is moveable along a sleeve (1) to operate a stop bolt of an additional lock (8), with a co-operating frame-side stop pivot stirrup (57). By back-closing the main bolt (6) from a first pre-closed position, the stop bolt of the additional lock moves out into a stop pivot stirrup catchment position and after a second forward and backward closure operation of the main lock is fully moved backwards into the additional lock. A force accumulator engages on the stop bolt, and is charged up to a dead point position with each main bolt forward-closure operation. When the dead point position is exceeded the stop bolt is moved into its end position. The drive shaft works in conjunction with the stop bolt via an open slide guide, which curve-controls the stop bolt until above the dead point position of the force accumulator.

Abstract: The method measures the timing difference of signals between two convertors (4,5). The convertors (4,5) are arranged spaced apart from each other and are alternately operated as transmitter (4) or receiver (5). The signal (10) emitted from the transmitter (4) reaches the receiver as wave groups which increase and then decrease over several oscillations. A first comparator (14) compares the received signal with a first threshold voltage. A second comparator (15) compares the received signal with a second threshold voltage close to its constant component. A transmission time measurement is stopped when the second comparator is switched after a switching of the first comparator and the difference between two measurements is calculated. The first threshold voltage is set to at least a test value above and/or below a predetermined value (S). The timing difference measured with the test value is compared directly or indirectly with the difference measured with the predetermined value (S). The latter is held for the first threshold when with the test value almost the same difference is measured. A new value (S) is provided when the measured differences are different for the period of at least one cycle.

Abstract: Printed markers for identifying electrical cables are formed by winding an elongate strip or flattened length of tubing 19 onto a reel 30, which is then mounted for rotation to a thermal transfer printer 25. The printer then prints markings onto the strip or tubing 19 as it advances past a print head 36 of the printer. The strip or tubing 19 may be formed with transverse lines of weakness at intervals along its length, to define successive markers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with a substrate (1) provided with a passive element (2), a pattern of conductors (3, 4), and a semiconductor element (5) which is formed in a small slice (6) of semiconductor material. The passive element (2), the pattern of conductors (3, 4), and the semiconductor element (5) are formed at a first side (8) of a wafer of semiconductor material (7), whereupon this wafer is glued with its first side (8) to the substrate (1), and the semiconductor material of the wafer (7) is removed from the second side (22) thereof, except at the area of the semiconductor element (5). A small slice (6) of semiconductor material thus remains in which the semiconductor element (5) has been formed. The wiring may be realized in a simple manner without the introduction of additional and expensive process steps, while the introduction of parasitic capacitances and self-inductances is counteracted.

Abstract: Dans un circuit de commande de gain (GCC), plusieurs paires de transistors à différentiel disposées en parallèle (DP1, DP2, ... DPN) sont mises en déséquilibre en fonction d'un signal de commande de gain (Vagc). En outre, le gain des paires de transistors à différentiel individuelles (DP1, DP2, ...

It also has one or more holes to ensure that the adhesive mastic fills the cavity completely. The support can be removed, when required, by applying heat to it to raise the temperature of the adhesive to 120 - 140 degrees.
