Abstract: A coin comprising a circumferential rim (1;11;31;41), a middle portion (2; 12; 22; 32; 42) having on opposite sides of the coin a bearing surface, and a border portion (3; 13; 23; 33; 43) situated between the middle portion (2; 12; 22; 32; 42) and the circumferential rim (1; 11; 31; 41). The border portion extends annularly throughout the periphery of the coin and at least a part of the border portion has on oppositie sides of the coin a surface enclosing an angle deviating from a right angle with the bearing surface of the middle portion on the side of the coin where said part of the border portion is situated. These features permit a coin resting on a flat surface to be tilted by pressing its border portion, and thus to be readily picked up or to be slid over another coin.

Abstract: A scanning device for causing a beam of light (10) to be repetitively swept across a surface (14) includes a laser source (12) for providing a beam of laser light (10) and a pentaprism assembly (16) which redirects the beam of light (10) to the surface (14). The pentaprism assembly (16) includes a support member (18) and a plurality of pentaprism elements (20) positioned around the periphery of the support member (18). An arrangement is provided for rotating the support member (18) such that successive ones of the plurality of pentaprism elements (20) are brought into the path of the beam of light (10) and redirect the beam of light (10) to the surface (14).

Abstract: A method for transmitting 1544 or 6312-kbit/s signals via a 2048 or 8448-kbit/s link is not known in the synchronous digital multiplex hierarchy and is to be specified. A 1544-kbit/s signal is inserted in the direction of multiplexing, using a gapped 2048-kHz clock (LT11) into a container C-111 which is completed by means of a path overhead V511 to form a virtual container VC-1111. This is transmitted via a 2048-kbit/s link (L11) with a link container (S-1111) to which a header (OH11) and pointer bytes V111 to V411 are allocated for the transmission. After adding stuffing bytes (FS11), the 1544-kbit/s signal can be fed into a subsystem unit TU-121. In the direction of demultiplexing, stuffing bytes (FS12) must be removed from a subsystem unit TU-122 and pointer bytes V112 to V412 must be inserted with the aid of a gapped 2048-kHz clock (LT12) and a header (OH12) must be inserted with the aid of a 2048-kHz clock (T12) for the transmission via a 2048-kbit/s link (L12). After the transmission, the header (OH12), the pointer bytes V112 to V412 and a path overhead V512 are removed so that the 1544-kbit/s signal can be taken from a container C-112. A 6312-kbit/s signal is transmitted correspondingly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Data transmission systems which have subscriber equipment in the form of answering machines with message recording, call forwarding and remote interrogation are known. If the owner of the answering machine is on a journey, the call signal can be forwarded automatically, once the caller's message has been recorded, via the European radiopaging service to a radiopaging receiver. The answering machine contains an automatic dialling unit to forward the call. Furthermore, a radiopaging service is known (City-Ruf) in which not only radiopaging signals but also digits and short texts (display paging) are transmitted and shown on the display device (display) of the radiopaging receiver. The new data transmission system enables fast and error-free data transmission. To achieve this, the subscriber equipment contains a control device which monitors the reception of acknowledgement signals, e.g. spoken announcements and/or signals using the dual tone multi-frequency dialling method, from the central radio station and which re-initiates data transmission if required. The new data transmission system ensures that a called subscriber who is on a journey can respond quickly to a call. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A natural circulation boiling water reactor system (101) comprises a reactor vessel (102) enclosing a reactor core (108), for generating steam to drive a turbine (104) which can drive a generator (105) to generate electricity. The vessel (102) includes a chimney (110) for guiding the recirculating water and steam vertically above the core (108) and a dryer (112) for helping to remove water from steam exiting the vessel toward the turbine. In contrast to prior reactor systems, the chimney is height-staggered (201, 202, 203, 204) so that its central sections (201) are taller than its peripheral sections (204). A dryer (112) may also be elevation-staggered. This staggering minimizes carryover, water in the steam flow to the turbine, and carryunder, steam in the water recirculating through the core. In addition, the staggered chimney causes the fastest recirculation flow through the hottest portions of the core. The overall effect is a more efficient reactor system.

The developed image is then fixed at a fixing station 19 to produce a visible and permanent image of the desired print pattern on the medium. By using several developers 40 at the developing station each with a different colour powder, multicolour images can be printed by feeding the medium through the printer in successive print cycles.

Abstract: Whether or not a hit is given to a game is determined before symbol trains stop moving, or preferably when a start lever is manipulated for starting the motion of the symbol trains. For a game allowed to have a hit, the motion speed of symbol trains is switched from a high speed to a low speed, or the speed is set at a low speed from the beginning. For a game not allowed to have a hit, the symbol trains move at a high speed from the beginning. From the difference between motion speeds, a player can be given beforehand suggestion as to whether the game has been allowed to have a hit.
