Abstract: An apparatus (11) for indicating the fuel level in a vehicle tank, comprising an electrical level transducer (Rx) located in the tank, an indicator device (S) controlled by an electrical voltage and an electronic circuit (12), the subject of the present invention, comprising an input towards the transducer and an output towards the indicator device, in which the electronic circuit (12) comprises static switches (Int-1, Int-2) controlled by a square wave generator with an ON period which is short relative to its OFF period, to alternately enable and disenable the connection of a resistive-capacitive network (RC) between the input and output. Said network operates as a filter for the variations produced by the float, whereas the switches on the one hand produce a real increase in the filter time constant (equal approximately to the ratio of the OFF time to the ON time) and on the other hand ensure when under stationary conditions that the measurement corresponds exactly to a direct instrument-float connection.

Title: Verfahren zur selbsttätigen, iterativen Prozessoptimierung von Ziehvorgängen in Pressen

IPC: B30B15/26
Filed: 1993-07-21
Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur iterativen Prozeßoptimierung von taktweise ablaufenden Ziehvorgängen in Ziehpressen. Die am Niederhalter einstellbare Klemmkraft wird in Abhängigkeit von der Ziehteilqualität eines in einem vorausgegangenen Arbeitstakt gezogenen Ziehteiles für einen folgenden Arbeitstakt verringert (bei Reißern) oder erhöht (bei Falten) oder gleichbleibend beibehalten (bei guten Teilen). Um die Ziehteilqualität hinsichtlich der Kriterien "Reißer", "gut" bzw. "Falten" selbsttätig und bei jedem Arbeitstakt erkennen zu könnrn und dementsprechend den Optimierungsprozeß als einen echten Regelungsvorgang, der in einem geschlossenen Kreis automatisch abläuft, gestalten zu können, wird vor Aufnahme der Produktion eines bestimmten Typs eines zu ziehenden Ziehteiles ein pressenhubabhängiger Soll-Ziehkraftbereich der während des Ziehvorganges auf das Ziehteil ausgeübten Ziehkraft ermittelt und datenmäßig gespeichert, innerhalb dessen die Ziehkraft verlaufen muß, um reißer- und faltenfreie, also "gute" Ziehteile erwarten zu können. Während der Produktion wird für jedes Ziehteil der tatsächliche, pressenhubabhängige Ist-Ziehkraftverlauf gemessen und kontrolliert, ob er während des gesamten Ziehweges innerhalb des Soll-Ziehkraftbereiches verläuft und/oder ob er den Soll-Ziehkraftbereich ggf. über- ("Reißer") oder unterschritten hat ("Falten"). Hinsichtlich des Ziehprozesses relevante, am Halbzeug ermittelbare Einflußfaktoren werden ebenfalls laufend erfaßt und bei der Einstellung der Niederhalterkraft entsprechend berücksichtigt. <IMAGE>

Inventor: FROLA FRANK R
IPC: G01N29/00
Filed: 1993-10-26
Abstract: 5 n7 A gas concentration and/or bulk flow rate sensor (10) suitable for measuring the oxygen concentration and the bulk flow rate of gas delivered to a patient for medical purposes. Two piezoelectric transducers (12, 13) mounted on a printed circuit board (11) are interconnected by an elongated coiled tube (19). The gas is flowed around one of the transducers (12,13), through the tube (19) and around the other transducer (12,13). Periodically, one of the transducers is energized with a single short duration pulse to transmit a sonic wave through the gas to the other transducer. The travel time for the sonic wave is measured. The two transducers (12,13) are alternately used as transmitters and receivers so that the wave travel time is measured both with and against the gas flow direction. A thermistor (33) is located in the center of the coiled tube (19) for measuring the temperature of the gas. From the measured times, the measured temperature and stored formulas, a microprocessor (40) calculates the oxygen concentration and/or the bulk flow rate for the gas. The sensor (10) also may be used to measure other components of a gas mixture.

Filed: 1994-04-25
Abstract: An appliance door particularly suited for use as a refrigerator or freezer door includes a hollow, blow molded door slab (21), and a food storage shell or casing projecting from one wall (23) of the slab. The parts forming the shell (22,24,26) are prepared in a first step, e.g., by blow molding, and then are removably mounted as inserts in registering recesses (24',26') formed in the bottom of the cavity of one of two plates (60,61) or sections forming the mold for the door slab. The two mold sections are then closed over a tubular, plastic parison (P) which is then inflated to form in the mold the hollow door slab (21), portions of one wall of which mold over and around a series of male projections (30,40) which extend into the mold cavity from the mold inserts, thus causing the shell to be molded to and to project from the slab upon subsequent opening of the mold sections and removal of the slab therefrom. 
     Additional mold inserts may be used to create expansion grooves (68) in the slab wall which supports the shell, and the opposite or outer wall of the slab may be curved to reduce undesirable effects of thermal bow.
