Abstract: A finger print reader comprises a matrix of electronic switches selectively controlled by individually associated electrodes. A thin film having a conductive surface is suspended over the electrodes to apply a control potential to said electrode in response to the pressure applied by a ridge in the pattern of a finger print. Shift registers scan the electrodes to identify the address of a finger print ridge which is turning on the associated electronic switch. The entire unit is built on a semiconductor substrate. Thus, the amount of wiring is greatly reduced. The reader is a unified device made with the precision of an integrated circuit.

Abstract: A method for the recovery of oxygen from air in which a high-temperature ion transport membrane system is integrated with combustion turbine system. Coproduction of oxygen and electric power is achieved in an alternative embodiment by integrating a combined cycle power generation system with an ion transport membrane system. The design performance of the gas turbine in the combined cycle system is maintained by controlled water injection into the membrane non-permeate stream which is introduced into the gas turbine combustor. Alternatively, makeup air is added to the membrane feed to maintain the performance of the gas turbine. NOx formation is reduced by introducing the oxygen-depleted non-permeate from the membrane system to the gas turbine combustor.

Title: Generator driving method and means for the HF-energy supply of an ultrasound transducer
Inventor: KISING JUERGEN
IPC: B06B1/02
Filed: 1995-01-05
Abstract: In a procedure for driving a generator to supply HF energy to an ultrasonic converter for welding purposes, the phase-angle between voltage and current is measured at the generator output, and a voltage proportional to it is derived and is then used for frequency control purposes. Additionally, the current, voltage, voltamps and/or active power at the output terminals may be processed digitally as extra control parameters, in which case, they are combined digitally with the phase-angle in order to establish the required resonance frequency. The generator frequency is then brought to a value at which the phase-angle tends towards zero or has a zero crossing point.

Abstract: In an apparatus that has a main power supply and a sub-power supply and that halts a main power supply in the standby state, the main power supply is turned on for an incoming call for facsimile communication, while the main power supply is not turned on for an incoming call for speech communication. Therefore, the unnecessary turning on and off of the main power supply can be prevented. 
     When the DRPD (Distinguish Ringing Pattern Detect) service is provided, a plurality of telephone numbers are assigned to a single communication line, and a plurality of call signals whose pattern differ are employed for receiving calls. When one of these telephone numbers is used for facsimile and another telephone number is used for a telephone, an incoming call can be identified as being either for facsimile or for telephone by distinguishing between the patterns of the call signals. 
     When the pattern of the call signal is for facsimile, the main power supply is turned on to perform data communication. When the pattern of the call signal is for telephone, the main power supply is not turned on.

The neighbouring strip can be adjusted in its longitudinal position relative to the strip, and can be locked to the component in any of these positions. The surplus section of the neighbouring strip, which extends beyond the corner of the frame, may then be cut off.

Abstract: A heat transfer tube ( 10 ) for use in a heat exchanger where heat is transferred between a fluid flowing through the tube and a fluid flowing around the exterior of the tube and where the fluid external to the tube boils during the heat exchange process. The tube has at least one fin convolution ( 20 ) extending helically around its external surface ( 13 ). A pattern of notches ( 30 ) extends at an oblique angle (α) across the fin convolution at intervals about the circumference of the tube. There is a spike ( 22 ) between each pair of adjacent notches. The distal tip ( 23 ) is flattened . The maximum width ( W     t   ) of the spike is greater than the width (W r ) of the proximal portion of the fin convolution and is of a width sufficient to overlap with the distal tips of spikes in adjacent fin convolutions, thus forming reentrant cavities between the adjacent fin convolutions and under the overlapping tips. The fin convolution, notches and spikes are formed in the tube by rolling the wall of the tube between a mandrel and, first, a gang of finning disks ( 63 ), then second, a notching wheel ( 66 ) and, third, a smooth wheel ( 67 ). Because, during the manufacture of the tube, of the interaction of the rotating and advancing tube, the notching wheel and the smooth wheel, the angle (β) of inclination of the axis of the tip of the spike is oblique with respect to the notch angle

Abstract: A bellows type air spring having a circular lobed body member with an inner an outer rubberized fabric reinforcing ply and a bead ring at each end. The turn up portion at each end of the fabric layers is wrapped around the bead ring with the turn up portion of the inner ply extending axially inwardly from the bead ring a substantial distance beyond the end of the turn up portion of the outer ply on both ends of the spring to provide longer flex life and prevent premature cracking of the body member in the areas of the end bead rings. The manufacturing method involves the use of an inner fabric ply that is substantially longer in the axial direction than the outer ply instead of using both inner plies of the same axial length.

Abstract: Described herein is a printer having a printhead (102) which traverses laterally across a sheetlike print medium (110) and which thereby defines a laterally-extending print zone across the print medium. A paper transport mechanism in the printer has drive rollers (114) and associated pinch wheels (180) to drive the print medium through the printer's print zone. The paper transport mechanism further includes an upper print media guide (118) and a lower print medium guide (126). The two print medium guides are shaped at their transverse ends to bow the transverse edges of the print medium downwardly to reduce its tendency to buckle upwardly into the printhead. In order to fit the upper print medium guide into the limited available space above the drive rollers, it is made of a lower molded portion (170) for paper contact and an upper backing portion (172) for rigidity. A pinch finger (191) extends toward the printer's print zone beyond the pinch wheels to establish a pinch point (192) against the drive roller in near proximity to the print zone.
