Title: Position measuring device for detecting displacements with at least three degrees of freedom
Inventor: SUNDIN MARTIN
IPC: G05G9/047
Filed: 1997-12-02
Abstract: The invention comprises a fixed platform (1) and a displaceable platform (2) that are coupled by six tension springs (3) and an elastic spacing element (6), which forms with each platform, for instance, a ball-and-socket joint, so that the platforms can be displaced in a total of five to six degrees of freedom with respect to each other. Displacement is detected by measuring at the tension springs (3) or at the spacing element (6). This is preferably done by measuring the inductivity of the tension springs (3), thereby making it possible to easily determine the relative position of the platforms.

Inventor: CROFT THOMAS M
IPC: H03J7/04
Filed: 1997-04-07
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une boucle de contrôle automatique de fréquence (CAF) s'utilisant dans des systèmes radio. Pour piloter un générateur de fréquences, cette boucle effectue sur le cumul des corrections d'erreurs un test de seuil à partir duquel il lui est possible de corriger la valeur contenue dans l'accumulateur d'erreurs de façon à permettre au récepteur de rester verrouillé sur une porteuse de fréquence spécifiée, même en présence d'un canal adjacent puissant source d'interférences. Cette boucle CAF est conçue pour s'utiliser dans le cas de systèmes à correction d'erreurs à écart fixe défini entre les porteuses. En partant du principe que l'erreur initiale de fréquence ne dépasse jamais un demi écart entre porteuses, le système est capable de reconnaître que le verrouillage s'est fait sur le mauvais canal dès lors que le générateur de fréquences de la boucle CAF subit une correction supérieure à un demi écart entre porteuses. Le test de seuil sur le cumul des corrections d'erreurs du générateur de fréquences permet à la boucle CAF de reconnaître que le récepteur s'est verrouillé sur un canal adjacent source d'interférences. Une fois que le système a reconnu qu'un tel verrouillage s'est produit, il lui est possible de recaler le générateur de fréquences sur une valeur correspondant à plus ou moins un canal, ce qui permet de rétablir la commutation de la boucle CAF sur le canal spécifié.

Abstract: In order that the speed of a boom operating cylinder can be increased
when a hydraulic motor for swinging and the boom operating cylinder are
simultaneously operated, discharged hydraulic oil from a first hydraulic pump
(1) is supplied to the boom operating cylinder (7) by means of directional
control valves (3) provided with pressure compensating valves (21), and
discharged pressure oil from a second hydraulic pump (30) to the hydraulic

Abstract: Système de codage dans lequel le côté réception comporte un décodeur capable de produire, en plus des informations de sortie sûres décodées, des valeurs d'information incertaine de symbole et/ou de bit. Pour une certaine position de bit d'information est calculée une valeur proportionnelle à la probabilité conjointe qu'un symbole reçu et la série de tous les mots de code transmis rendus hypothétiques aient conduit à l'information de sortie sûre détectée ou estimée. Les probabilités calculées concernant plusieurs mots de code ayant un zéro à cette certaine position de bit d'information sont comparées aux probabilités calculées concernant les mots de codes ayant un un dans cette certaine position de bit d'information. Le résultat de la comparaison indique si l'information de sortie sûre à cette même position de bit d'information est plus vraisemblablement un un ou un zéro. Les valeurs d'information de sortie incertaine sont en outre traitées par comparaison avec un seuil préétabli, les instances qui dépassent le seuil déclenchant des rejets et/ou des retransmissions de blocs.

section for storing the timer information on the broadcast reception
starting and ending time of the tuner section, a timer section, a
recording section which records the output signal of the tuner section
on a recording medium taken out from a stocking section for stocking
a plurality of recording media, and a controller which controls the

storing section. The controller compares the output signal of the timer
section with the broadcast reception starting time contained in the
timer information stored in the storing section, takes out one
recording medium from the stocking section based on the result of the
comparison, starts the recording section to record the output signal of
the tuner section on the taken out recording medium, and stops the
recording section while the section records the output signal of the
tuner section on the recording medium based on the result of
comparison between the output signal of the timer section and the
