Title: Improved unitary solid-state laser
IPC: H01S3/06
Filed: 1989-05-03
Granted: 1992-12-23
Abstract: Improvement in a laser having a solid transparent housing with two cavities for respectively holding a laser rod and a pump lamp. The rod is embedded along its total length within the housing; the pump lamp is embedded along its total arc and over a substantial length of each of its electrode regions within the housing. Clearance between lamp envelope and housing is held to close tolerances. Optional beam tubes provided at the end of the rod at the housing shield the laser beam from thermal distortion. Flashlamps having a cerium-doped quartz envelope are particularly desirable for pumping this laser.

Title: Electronic key locks
IPC: E05B9/08
Filed: 1990-04-05
Granted: 1993-08-18
Abstract: A lock which is adapted to transduce the code from a key by electronic means is constructed to resemble the form and functionality of a conventional mechanical cylinder lock. A main casing 1 houses the bolt 3, a rotatable thrower or cam for retracting the bolt, an electromechanical release mechanism which normally blocks rotation of the thrower, and a processor to control the release mechanism in response to the detected key code. The electronic reading means are located in association with the keyway 26 of a rotatable barrel 25 in a cylinder unit 19 manufactured as a separate unit from the main casing 1. The thrower and barrel 25 have respective cooperating mechanical couplings 36/37 and the main casing 1 and cylinder unit 19 have respective cooperating electrical connectors 34/33. The lock is therefore assembled by attaching the cylinder unit 19 to the outside of the main casing 1, thus establishing a rotary driving connection from the barrel 25 to the thrower and establishing an electrical connection from the key reader to the processor.

Date Jul. 26, 1990.The frame of a mould comprises at least one rigid transverse structure element disposed in a zone which is substantially distant from the ends of the frame. The transverse element comprises two end parts between which are disposed support beams of the lateral moulding walls. Jacks each fixed on an end bearing part of the structure element are connected via their movable rod to the beam in zones which are distant from the longitudinal ends of the beam. The jacks make it possible to achieve both the displacement of the walls between their opening and closing positions and the clamping of the mould. Restriction of the clamping stresses is provided by the structure element. The bending moment of the beams remains low since the points of application of the stresses on the beams are distant from the ends of these beams and chosen as a function of the clamping conditions of the mould.

In addition the housing (13) in the area of the oil bath (24) has no discharge to the outside and the bearing section (17, 29) is gas-tight during operation. As a result of this design, the lubricating oil scraped off and collected in the oil bath is forced back into the crank casing by the route by which it entered the bearing housing. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé permettant d'optimiser l'exploitation d'une installation de broyage en continu utilisant des éléments broyeurs. On a découvert qu'en utilisant un dispositif à pression différentielle (12a, 12b) pour mesurer la chute de pression dans l'installation de broyage (11), on peut obtenir une détermination en continu de l'état de fluidisation des éléments broyeurs contenus dans l'installation de broyage.

Abstract: The invention describes a circuit for electronic control systems with switch steps for acquisition and adaptation and switch means for provision of electric input signals. The object of the invention is to economise on components and space in the DC-isolation of the peripheral control side from the internal control plane, irrespective of the number of physical inputs. The object is achieved according to the invention by multiplexing all input information and by feeding the serial data stream via a DC-isolating element and a communication element to the microprocessor for further processing. The communication element contains a serial-parallel converter which converts the data stream into a bit word whose width corresponds to the quantity of input information. The control signals required for communication are used by a control logic located in an input module for synchronisation of the transmission cycle and are routed via DC-isolating elements. <IMAGE>
