Abstract: The invention proposes a method for reading bar codes, the bar code being illuminated by means of light, preferably in the visible or IR range, and reflected light being detected and the transitions between areas of different reflectivity of the bar code, that is to say between black bars and free spaces between the bars of such a code, being detected and their distances being determined, and a system for reading bar codes, the bar code being illuminated by means of light, preferably in the visible or IR range, and reflected light being detected and being converted into an electrical signal and a differentiator being provided for differentiating the received and preprocessed signal and at least one comparator being provided, with which method achieves reliable evaluation in a simple manner by the fact that the received signal is differentiated only once, that the time of the positive and negative peak value of the differentiated signal is found and from this a corresponding rectangular signal is generated or, respectively, that the differentiator is in each case followed by a detector for a positive peak value and, respectively, a negative peak value of the differentiated signal and these and, directly, the differentiator are in each case followed by a comparator.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for the reduction of mould cycle time. A deflatable member is positioned flush with the surface of a mould in an opening defined downwardly therein. Prior to flow of a resin or other hardenable liquid within the mould, the deflatable member is deflated so as to define a resin flow channel across selected portions of the mould surface. Prior to hardening of the hardenable liquid within the mould, the deflatable member is inflated so as to become flush with the surface of the mould so as to yield an article of manufacture having a relatively planar surface.

Abstract: A circuit for limiting the transitory's overvoltage across a power transistor connected essentially in series with an inductive load between a supply rail and a ground rail of the circuit and operated to switch ON-OFF said inductive load utilizes a comparator circuit for switching-­ON again the power transistor in order to discharge the energy stored in the load's inductance. The voltage across the power transistor is sensed by a first voltage divider, while a reference voltage is obtained by means of a second voltage divider connected between the supply and ground. The circuit is practically insensitive to temperature and to variations of the supply voltage and is easily implemented.

Abstract: In order to meet the ever higher requirements placed on the performance of a brake, the brake blocks belonging to the individual brakes and sometimes even the brake blocks belonging to a single brake are in many cases of different design. On the other hand, brake linings are increasingly being replaced by untrained workers. It is the object of the invention to design the brake and the associated linings in such a way that, in a simple and economical manner, only the linings envisaged can be installed at the point envisaged. The invention consists in principle in the fact that recesses or projections in the form of a key firmly anchored to the brake or brake blocks are provided on the guiding surfaces of the support and/or of the housing and on the associated faces of the anchor plate of the brake block, permitting installation of the correct brake block at the correct point only. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The object of the invention is to develop a known transmission system for digital and analog signals with a radio transceiver and at least one peripheral unit connected via line connections to a microcomputer control block so that a minimum number of lines are required for two-way transmission. Moreover, the line connections are intended to emit virtually no radiated interference and to be virtually unaffected by interference radiated from an external source. The object is achieved in that a pulse filter (55, 56) is provided in each case at the data outputs (50, 51) of the ports (52, 53) of the control blocks (11, 18) of the radio transceiver (10) and the peripheral unit (14). The two-way data signal line (57) is provided in a wired AND structure between a pull-up resistor (63) at the data output (50) of the microcomputer control block (11) and a pull-up resistor (64) at the data output (51) of the microcomputer control block (18). Further peripheral units (19) are connected at branching points of the two-way data signal line (57). A preferred field of application for the invention is a radio telephone system. The drawing shows a block diagram of a transmission system according to the invention. (Fig. 2) <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is for an illumination transmitter. The transmitter (100) projects a signal onto a planar reflective surface such as the ceiling (104) of an open office environment (102). The transmitter includes a plurality of illumination sources positioned in a line wherein the line has a predetermined orientation to the planar surface. The illumination sources are preferably infrared LEDs. The transmitter has means for jointly aiming the illumination sources toward a desired location on the planar surface. The location on the planar surface is usually used to allow multiple transmitters coupled to infrared receivers to allow communication between computers in a LAN. The transmitter also includes means for maintaining the predetermined orientation between the planar surface and the line. The orientation is usually parallel to allow transmitters located large distances from the illumination to project a relatively small illumination spot (106) onto the planar surface.

Abstract: The anti-glare covering for illuminate switch or indicator of the invention is formed of a covering member (5) shaped from a trans­parent synthetic resin and a microlouver-type anti-glare sheet (1) melt-bonded to the lower surface (6) of the covering member.

Thus, the anti-glare covering of the invention is provided with improved visibility and rigidity and is easy to maintain beau­tiful appearance. The visibility of the illuminate switch or indi­cator is further improved by providing a thin light-transmitting metallizing layer on the upper surface of the covering member at the top portion.
