Abstract: A replaceable automobile headlight lamp unit and headlight utilizing same wherein the unit's electric lamp (e.g., tungsten halogen) is securedly retained within a clamp member including an insulative base and a pair of spaced-apart retaining clips for grasping the lamp's press-sealed end portion. The base includes a curvilinear surface which mates with a surface having a similar configuration located within an insulative holder which also forms part of the invention. A pair of spaced contacts located within the holder pass through apertures within the base and are connected (e.g., welded) to the retention clips. A ball-joint arrangement is thus provided to enable facile alignment of the electric lamp relative to the holder prior to final securement between the holder and base components.

Abstract: An apparatus in which sheet material is decuried, for example as it leaves the fuser of an electrophotographic printing machine. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a baffle type decurler (100) in which a sheet moving therethrough chooses one of three paths and baffles, depending on the direction and amount of curl. Spring loaded baffles (110, 111) in conjunction with idler rolls (112, 113) reverse bends the sheets in two of the three paths. In another embodiment, the apparatus (200) includes off-set nips (210, 213; 214, 215) for reverse binding a sheet. As the sheet leaves the fuser, it is directed into one of two channels toward an off-set nip depending on the curl in the sheet. The off-set nip in conjunction with an output baffle (204, 206) reverse bends the sheet.

Abstract: A ball joint of the type having a ball stud (l2) and a preformed plastics socket (20) includes means for sealing the socket opening (32) receiving the stud head, and for ensuring maintenance of the seal irrespective of accumulated tolerance variations.A cap (38) having an inwardly converging peripheral closure surface (44) fits within and conforms closely to a matching closure surface (36) within the socket opening. Deformable protuberances (52;94) on the outer side of the cap (38;82) are arranged to be engaged and deformed by a surface (56) of a suspension control arm (54) to which the socket is mounted, or alternatively by a surface (l00) of a cover (98) which fixes the socket (68) to the control arm (96).The protuberances extend far enough from the outer side of the cap to ensure that the engagement and deformation occur irrespective of accumulated tolerance variations in the components of the ball joint. The deformation of the protuberances forces the cap into the socket opening as the ball joint is completed, to interengage the closure surfaces more tightly and ensure maintenance of the seal of the socket opening.

Abstract: A drilling jar (100) includes a swivel (20) which allows the drilling jar to operate substantially independently of any right hand torque that becomes trapped in the drill string. The swivel (20) includes a bearing cage (9) that engages the polished stem (4) of the drilling jar to the jay stem (5) of the drilling jar. This bearing cage (9) holds a number of bearings (10) against the jay stem (5) and the polished stem (4). The swivel (20) allows the jay stem (5) to rotate substantially independently of the polished stem (4). The drilling jar may further include splines (8) formed onto the outer surface of the polished stem (4) for trans­mitting torque from the polished stem (4) to the barrel (1) of the drilling jar without simultaneously transmitting torque from the polished stem (4) to the jay stem (5). In addition, the drilling jar may include floating pistons (11,12) that are circum­ferentially engaged to the polished stem (4) and the washpipe (7) that effect the upper and lower seals on the drilling jar and allow the internal pressure inside the tool to be equalized with the internal and external pressures of the drill string.

Abstract: In this system, the air pressure energy of the soundwave fronts generated by the loudspeaker on the inside of the enclosure are transmitted to an enclosure-internal passive system. The movement of the diaphragm of this passive system is transferred by means of a transmission element to a further passive system which is mounted on the outside on the acoustic baffle. This external passive system emits the transmitted energy of motion towards the outside (front) in soundwave fronts which are in phase with the loudspeaker. The invention is effective over the entire transmission range. In comparison with other systems utilising the enclosure-internal sound energy, sound cancellations do not occur because the inside air of the enclosure cannot come into contact with the external air. Apart from the increase in efficiency described due to the enclosure sound energy emitted towards the outside in phase with the loudspeaker, the illustrative embodiments explain determinations of efficiency and tuning possibilities in the low-frequency range. In this range of additional low-frequency amplification, there are no sound cancellations either because here too, the soundwaves which are in phase with the low-frequency speaker are exclusively emitted towards the outside. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A semiconductor chip carrier (10) includes a number of distributed high frequency decoupling capacitors (C) as an integral part of the carrier. The distributed capacitors are formed as a part of first and second layers of metallurgy (14, 18) and separated by a layer of thin film dielectric material (16) built up on a substrate (24). The distributed capacitors are positioned to extend from a ground pin (50) of the second layer of metallurgy to a plurality of mounting pads (38, 40, 42) which are an integral part of the first layer of metallurgy. A semiconductor chip (12) is mounted to the mounting pads and receives electrical power and signals therethrough. The distributed capacitors decrease electrical noise associated with simultaneous switching of relatively large numbers of off-chip drivers which are electrically connected to or integrated in the semiconductor chip.

Abstract: A data hashing arrangement (100) particularly suitable for efficient database (105) storage and fast retrieval of large numbers of character strings. A database address is determined for a character string by replacing individual characters with random numbers selected from a predefined table (104) of random numbers. The table locations of the selected random numbers are uniquely defined by the characters. The selected numbers are combined by interactive bit reordering and exclusive-OR operations to form a result, which is then used to derive the database address where the character string is stored.

Abstract: The bearing device comprises two coaxially arranged thrust bearings (4, 5) which are series-­connected with respect to their load, and which each has a separate frictional locking device preventing the bearing from rotating in one or the other direction of rotation, respectively. Each frictional locking device includes a set of clamping bodies (9) located between opposed first and second clamping surface portions, each of which is immovable relative to a first and a second bearing track, respectively, of the associated bearing when the bearing is subjected to an axial load. The first clamping surface portion of either locking device is provided in an element (1) which is common to both bearings and which under axial load retains one bearing track of the other bearing (5). 
     Each of said first clamping surface portions includes a number of first clamping surfaces having generatrices parallel to the axis of the bearing device, and each of these first clamping surfaces is located radially directly opposite and spaced from a cylindric second clamping surface oriented parallel to the axis of the bearing device and in connection with the second bearing track of the associated bearing (4, 5). One of said opposed clamping surfaces cooperating with either set of clamping bodies (9) is formed by the radially inner or outer peripheral surface of a bearing race (7) of the bearing in question.   
     The quoted features ensure that malfunctioning of the locking devices is avoided, and that the locking function is independent of the axial load on the bearing device.
