Abstract: A superconducting circuit is produced by a combination of physical vapour deposition technique and doping technique. A method includes the steps comprising depositing a thin film of superconductor of compound oxide on a substrate and then doping a selected portion on a surface of the deposited thin film with a predetermined ion under heated condition or without any heat-treatment in order to transform the crystal structure of the selected portion from superconductor to non-superconductor, so that undoped portion which is left in the condition of superconductor is used as a superconducting circuit.

Filed: 1989-05-12
Abstract: The invention relates to an electric machine, in which active iron parts are premagnetisable by means of a homopolar magnetic field. A separate winding for generating the homopolar magnetic field can be dispensed with since the armature winding of the machine is a drum winding consisting of two parallel-connected winding groups (I - IV), each winding group (I - IV) consisting of a plurality of subwindings (1 to 6 and 24 to 26), since a changeable dc current (IG) is fed in at two points (19, 20 and 39, 40) of the two winding groups (I, II and III, IV), said points being at the same potential with respect to the induced alternating voltages, since each of the subwindings (1-6 and 24-27) situated between one of the points (19, 20 and 39, 40) at the same potential and an output terminal (U, V, W and U1, U2) of the machine only extends over parts of the armature circumference which are penetrated by induced magnetic fields of the same polarity and the subwindings (1 to 6 and 24 to 27) connected in each case to the same output terminals (U, V, W and U1, U2), of the two winding groups (I, II and III, IV) are arranged offset with respect to one another by one pole division or by an uneven multiple of a pole division. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved printing apparatus (10) and method includes plate (24, 26) and blanket (12, 14) cylinders which are rotated at different surface speeds during printing on material (20). Since the plate (24, 26) and blanket (12, 14) cylinders are rotated at different surface speeds, the area on a blanket cylinder (12, 14) which engages a given portion of the surface on a plate cylinder (24, 26) is changed on each revolution of the blanket cylinder (12, 14). Therefore, the area of a blanket cylinder (12, 14) which is engaged by the gap (44, 46) in the plate cylinder (24, 26) changes during a printing operation. In addition, the area where an image is applied to the blanket cylinder (12, 14) is moved relative to the surface (16, 18) of the blanket cylinder (12, 14) to tend to minimize build up of ink on the blanket cylinder (12, 14) during printing. The plate (24, 26) and blanket (12, 14) cylinders are driven at different surface speeds by a drive assembly (66) which includes a harmonic drive unit (74).

Title: Protective welding curtain
Inventor: BURLET JEAN-PAUL
IPC: F16P1/06
Filed: 1989-07-25
Abstract: The Transmix protective welding curtain serves for shielding workstations in works halls or in the open air, at which gas welding or light-arc welding operations are carried out. In order to be able to perform both gas welding and light-arc welding operations at one and the same workstation and in order to be able to comply with protection regulations at the same time, the Transmix protective welding curtain is designed in such a way that, with variable spacings towards the top or the bottom, it contains a central, non-transparent component which is also variable in width and length and protects people standing outside from the radiation resulting during the light- arc welding. The upper and lower part of the protective welding curtain consist of transparent material as has been used hitherto exclusively in gas welding. This transparent material gives people standing outside a partial view into the shielded-off workstation, by which means accidents or other events - also in the case of electric welding - can be detected from outside. Whilst, hitherto, electric welding operations were only possible and executable behind completely non-transparent curtains which offered no view from outside, due to the view provided from outside help and support can be given as quickly as possible in the event of work accidents or the like occurring whilst carrying out electric welding operations.

IPC: H03M5/14
Filed: 1989-10-25
Abstract: Means and structure for encoding binary data ensures that, on average, the encoded data provides a balanced data stream having an equal number of logical one and logical zero bits. An indicator bit of known value is appended to N data bits, forming a group of N+1 bits. The polarity of this group is determined, i.e. whether the group contains more ones than zeros. The cumulative polarity of all bits sent over the communication link is also maintained. When the polarity of the group is the same as the cumulative polarity, all bits in the group are inverted and the inverted group is transmitted. Otherwise the bits in the group are transmitted in their original form. To decode the transmitted bits, the bit stream is framed to separate each series of N+1 bits. The value of the indicator bit on the receiver side of the communication link indicates whether the group has been inverted. If the group has been inverted, it is reinverted on the receiver side of the link to provide the N data bits in their original form. Conversely, if the group has not been inverted, it is not reinverted on the receiver side of the link to provide the N data bits in their original form. In alternative embodiments, additional bits are appended to the N data bits and the indicator bit in order to allow transmission of additional information.

Inventor: BRECKNER RAYMOND ANTHONY
IPC: A01K79/00
Filed: 1989-07-13
Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus and method for handling a solid/liquid mixture, for example for conveying fish immersed in a fish/water mixture. The apparatus has a receiving chamber (12) to receive the mixture through an inlet valve (16) when the chamber is subjected to low pressure, and to discharge the mixture through an outlet valve (18) thereof when pressure in the chamber is increased. A quantity sensor (73) is responsive to a predetermined quantity of mixture within the chamber (12) to isolate the chamber from low pressure when the predetermined quantity is reached. The inlet valve (16) is positioned adjacent an upper portion of the chamber above a maximum upper level of mixture within the chamber, and has seat clearing structure to clear the inlet valve seat of solids when flow therethrough ceases. An inlet flow sensor (34) is responsive to inlet flow of mixture through the inlet valve and raises pressure in the chamber when the flow therethrough stops, to provide time for solids to clear the inlet valve (16) before closure thereof. The quantity sensor (73) also has a mode selector for selecting mode of operation of the apparatus which is responsive to quantity of mixture and controls pressure changes within the chamber. A valve/switch which controls actuation of controls for changing pressure within the chamber is magnetically responsive to flow sensors (34, 92) disposed within inlet and outlet ducts to permit actuation of the valve/switch without mechanical contact therewith. This isolates the valve/switch from contamination with the mixture in the duct and vice versa.
