Title: Process for operating a generator, and circuit for carrying out said process
Inventor: BARTSCH KNUT
IPC: H02K3/28
Filed: 1997-07-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for operating a generator with a plurality of generator windings in which a voltage is induced. When rotational speeds or voltage supply are low, at least two of the generator windings are connected in series and when rotational speeds or voltage supply of the individual generator windings are higher, said windings are connected in parallel thereby reducing the voltage of the generator. The overall voltage of the generator is consequently easily maintained in a predetermined range without the need for complicated voltage regulators. High output voltages are also produced when rotational speeds are low and operate electrical apparatus, in particular fuel injection devices. The process according to the invention can also be used for other active voltage sources, such as solar cells, batteries etc. which do not provide a constant voltage supply but have consumers which require a substantially constant voltage.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un appareil et un procédé de surveillance d'un tube de sang généralement transparent se trouvant en aval d'un séparateur sanguin de façon à détecter la présence de globules rouges dans un tube destiné à transporter un composant sanguin différent tel que des plaquettes. Une source de lumière rouge et une source de lumière verte sont placées en relation avec le tube de sorte que l'émission de lumière rouge et l'émission de lumière verte soient dirigées vers le tube et vers le(s) composant(s) sanguin(s) s'écoulant et s'acheminant vers le tube. La source de lumière rouge génère une intensité de réflexion rouge émanant des globules rouges dont la grandeur est proportionnelle à la concentration des globules rouges. La source de lumière verte génère une intensité de réflexion verte émanant des globules rouges dont la grandeur est inversement proportionnelle à la concentration des globules rouges. Ces deux réflexions lumineuses sont détectées au moyen d'un photodétecteur large bande, ou par deux photodétecteurs à spécificité de bande qui sont placés sur le même côté du tube de sorte qu'ils réagissent uniquement à la lumière réfléchie. Il en résulte une sortie qui détecte le rapport de la grandeur de l'intensité de lumière rouge à la grandeur de l'intensité de lumière verte.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un réticule (130) qui donne un masque image et corrige les défauts de lentille dans un système de photolithogravure. Ce réticule est soumis à modification structurelle par des données de déplacement d'image caractéristiques du défaut de lentille. La modification structurelle du réticule peut se faire par réglage de la configuration (ou de la disposition) des zones transparentes au rayonnement (132, 134), par exemple en calant un masque de chrome sur la face supérieure de la base de quartz. Une autre solution consiste à modifier structurellement le réticule en réglant l'incurvation du réticule, par exemple en calant un masque de chrome sur la face inférieure de la base de quartz, et en grattant des parties de la face inférieure de la base de quartz. Les données de déplacement d'image peuvent également varier en fonction du chauffage de la lentille de façon que le réticule vienne compenser le chauffage de la lentille en association avec le masque du réticule.
