Abstract: The burner has a combustion chamber (3), which is arranged in a burner pipe (1), namely the heat-transferring wall of a recuperator. A fuel lance (6) protrudes into the combustion chamber (3). This said fuel lance bears a flame retention baffle (7). The upstream-facing side of the flame retention baffle (7) supports three setbolts (15), which are inserted through the side wall of the combustion chamber (3). A supporting element (12) presses with elastic force against the upstream-facing end of the combustion chamber (3). The combustion chamber (3) is surrounded by an air duct (2), which forms a positional securing means for the setbolts (15) and at the same time a centering means for the combustion chamber (3). The combustion chamber (3) can be assembled and disassembled together with the fuel lance (6). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A downhill ski boot assembly combines a flexible walking boot with a boot brace insertable into a standard ski binding to provide a skier with the control and feel of a conventional hard ski boot. The boot brace has a sole plate insertable into the ski binding, a toe cap and boot restraining means for urging the sole of the boot against the sole plate. Lower leg support is provided by the brace by means of upright supports which are preferably inner and outer lateral struts extending from the sole plate to a shin or calf piece. The lower leg support has a spring biased pivot adjacent the ankle region which allows the skier to move his lower leg forward from the ankle against a biasing force.

Abstract: An apparatus capable of automatically determining grinding wheel dressing timing for dressing a grinding wheel. The apparatus estimates the abrasion of the grinding wheel in a grinding cycle on the basis of machining data and grinding conditions, and divides the grinding cycle into a plurality of stages according to the estimated abrasion to carry out grinding wheel dressing after the completion of every stage of the grinding cycle. In grinding a workpiece having a plurality of ground sections, the abrasion of the grinding wheel in grinding each ground section is estimated, and the abrasion is accumulated in accordance with grinding sequence. A ground section after grinding which grinding wheel dressing is to be carried out is determined on the basis of the cumulative abrasion. Similarly, the abrasions is accumulated for each of workpieces. A grinding wheel dressing is carried out after the completion of grinding a workpiece so that the cumulative abrasion may not exceed a predetermined value.

Abstract: A spread spectrum processing system (10) that employs wide bandwidth spread spectrum radio transmissions overlaid over the existing cellular voice signals to simultaneously provide additional cellular services without causing objectionable interference to current users of the cellular voice channels. The spread spectrum radio transmissions also support a large number of low rate digital messages. Both vehicle location and messaging functions are obtained without sacrificing any of the existing voice channel capacity. The cell site processor (40) is designed to share the existing cellular frequencies, real estate, antenna towers, antennas (31), and low noise amplifiers (32) used in the cell site radio frequency receiver chain. The only additional cell site equipment is the spread spectrum signal processor (3240 The processing system provides a means for achieving vehicle location accuracies that are improved by greater than two orders of magnitude over that which is possible by the current transmissions in that band. It provides a means of achieving transmit power control of the vehicle transmitter (11, 12) to combat the extremely large variation (dynamic range) of radio signal path loss to the receiving sites. It also provides a means of excising at the receiver the excessively strong conventional voice cellular signals that are not under power control which ordinarily might interfere with the successful reception of the new broadband signals.

Abstract: In a method of automatically milking animals, e.g. cows, in a milking parlour, teat cups (80) carried by a robot arm (7) of a milking robot can be moved individually upwardly relative to the robot arm (7), whereby a vacuum is produced in the teat cup (80) moved upwardly, so that the teat cup (80) can suck to a relevant teat. Thereafter the teat cup (80) is released from the robot arm (7) but remains connected therewith via a flexible connecting member (81), by means of which the teat cup (80) is pulled towards and against the robot arm (7) when the milking flow through the teat cup (80) has ended. The specification further describes an implement for performing this method.

Abstract: A drop marker includes a chamber (12) for electrically conductive marking ink, a pressure source (14) for creating a stream of the ink, and a print head (18) for breaking this stream of ink into drops (21). Charge electrodes (25) impart an electric charge on selected drops, and deflection electrodes (28) create an electric field to control the flight path of the charged drops to mark characters on a substrate (30). The characters are maintained at a desired height by an electronic controller (10) in the form of a system microprocessor which measures a flow parameter of the ink and adjusts the deflection of the ink drops in response to the measured change in the flow parameter. Deflection of the ink drops is adjusted by modifying the deflection voltage applied to deflection electrodes (28) and/or by modifying the electric charge imparted to the selected drops by a charge amplifier (26).

Abstract: Pointer control logic for error correcting codes includes a set of registers the contents of which are rotated whenever data from a track with a pointer are processed. In that manner, a given one register always contains pointer data for the track under consideration (if that track has a pointer). The pointer control logic includes programmable initializing values to stress write operations as desired. Further, the logic contains multiple and programmable pointer dropping thresholds so that pointer registers can be candidates for dropping dependent on the type of error encountered. Provision is made for extending pointer life when errors are encountered, registers are full, and no register has dropped below the pointer dropping threshold.
