Patent EP-0359344-A3 (EP)
IPC: B23Q5/40
Filed: 1985-10-07
Abstract: The carriage of a digital document reader is shifted by means 
of a pair of worms (27) rotatable in the frame and engaging two nuts 
(26) at the two ends of the carriage. The worms are rotated 
simultaneously, e.g. by a single stepping motor (32) and a toothed 
belt (30) engaging pulleys integral with the worms (27).  
     For the purpose of reducing inertia, each worm (27) is formed 
together with its driving pulley by moulding a layer of plastics 
material on a metal core tube. The carriage supports reading 
elements (22) for reading a document on a support surface (10). A 
second carriage (143) has two nuts (42) at its ends and these engage 
two further worms (31) parallel to the first worms (27) and mounted 
on the first carriage. The second carriage (143) moves relative to 
the first carriage to move different colour filters into the path to 
the reading elements (22).

Title: Field-effect transistor having a lateral surface superlattice, and method of making the same
IPC: H01L29/778
Filed: 1989-02-24
Abstract: In a semiconductor device, charge carriers are locally depleted by 
a lateral surface superlattice grid structure (21, 22) formed on top of 
semiconductor material, leaving charge carriers in periodic potential 
wells with respect to the depleted areas. Said grid structure (21, 22) 
acts as the gate electrode of a field-effect transistor such as a HEMT 
and is formed selectively according to a desired pattern (20) (e.g. 
square, circular...) on portions of the top semiconductor surface. In 
order to have a device which exhibits negative differential conductivity 
at ambient temperature, the periodicity of the grid structure must be 
less than 800Å.  
     A device with a grid structure (67) formed by depositing a uniform 
metal layer (66) on top of a semiconductor surface having recesses 
formed therein so as to define a two-dimensional pattern of spaced apart 
pillars (64) is also disclosed.

Title: Mobile unit tracking system
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1992-12-01
Abstract: A communication network (10) keeps track of the locations of mobile units (16) which utilize the network (10). On powering up, the mobile units (16) determine their current locations using signals broadcast, for example, by overhead satellites (12, 24). They then send data communication messages (80) to the network (10) describing their locations. The network (10) saves the locations (122) and returns data messages (90) that describe borders (22) which surround the mobile units' locations. The mobile units (16) repetitively determine their current locations on a regular schedule. When their current locations are outside of their prescribed borders (22), they send other location data messages (80) to the network (10) to update the location data being maintained by the network (10) and to receive a definition of a new border (22). <IMAGE>

Filed: 1993-09-15
Abstract: Method and device for measurement of the nip force and/or of the nip pressure in a nip (N) formed by a revolving roll (10) or by a corresponding band employed in the manufacture of paper. The detectors (20) in a series of measurement detectors (201...20n) are placed in the transverse direction of the revolving roll (10), preferably over the entire width (L0) of the paper web (W). The measurement signals of the detectors (20i) are passed to a measurement amplifier unit (29), whose connectors (241...24n) are controlled so that, through the measurement amplifier unit (29), the signal of each measurement detector (201... 20n) is passed to a telemeter transmitter (27,28) placed in connection with the revolving roll (10). The telemetric messages transmitted by said telemeter transmitter (27,28) wirelessly are received by means of a telemeter receiver (41,42) placed outside the revolving roll (10). The revolving roll (10) is provided with a transmitter/receiver (27,28), at whose proximity the transmitter receiver (41, 42) placed outside the roll (10) is placed. Said transmitter receiver (41,42) is connected (43) to a PC (44) or to a corresponding logic unit. Between said transmitter/receivers (27,28 and 41,42), a two-way wireless telemetric connection (T) is arranged, and measurement data (M1, M2,M3...Mn) are transferred through said connection (T) from the roll (10) to the PC (44), and from the PC (44), control data for the measurement system and possible calibration data are transferred to the measurement system placed in connection with the roll (10). <IMAGE>

Title: Electronic identification system.
Inventor: MARSH MICHAEL JOHN CAMILLE
IPC: G07B15/06
Filed: 1992-01-03
Abstract: An identification system comprises an interrogator and a number of transponders. The interrogator includes a transmitter (10) for transmitting an interrogation signal to the transponder, and a receiver (16,18,20,22) for receiving a response signal from the transponder. A micro-processor (28) identifies the transponder from data in the response signal. Each transponder comprises a receiving antenna (30) for receiving the interrogation signal, a code generator (36), a transmitting antenna (32), and a modulator (40) connected to the code generator. On receipt of the interrogation signal the transponder repeatedly transmits a response signal containing data which identifies the transponder. The interrogator detects successful identification of any transponder and briefly interrupts the interrogation signal to indicate the successful identification. Each transponder includes a logic circuit (42) responsive to a respective interruption in the interrogation signal to cease transmission of its own response signal. <IMAGE>
Patent EP-0714211-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KOMAREK THOMAS DR
IPC: H04N19/423
Filed: 1995-11-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and circuit for addressing
luminance components and chrominance components or forward
prediction components and backward prediction components of
blockwise organised digital picture data in a page addressed
memory. 
     The components of the picture data, i.e. chrominance and
luminance values or forward and backward prediction
components, are stored in separated address areas.
Thus several pictures are block oriented stored in the
memory. The blocks arranged in the different pictures at the
same positions are identified using the same block address,
so that the block address has to be calculated only once.
A block address and a motion address are divided into two
components, one being proportional to the lines and one being
proportional to the columns of a respective picture element.
