Abstract: The punch-shaped portion (22) of the component (14) is thrust through the wall (2) by a force (Fs) opposed to one (Fd) acting against the wall rear surface. After passing through the wall, the component is held by the latter. The components can be inserted at the same time as internal shaping pressure acts against the wall, or immediately afterwards, and insertion can be under high pressure, or by shooting the component into position. A bead can be formed by the insertion operation, this then bearing against the punch portion under the internal pressure.

Abstract: Transmitter systems in which an output signal is obtained by the summation of signals with predetermined discreet levels given by several amplification cells. Given a signal to be sent with an amplitude A and a phase phi0, a control circuit determines (alpha) a number of amplification cells sufficient to obtain slightly more than the value A with the phase phi0 but to carry out a phase adjustment (beta) such that at least two of the cells are phase-shifted, one in advance and the other delayed with respect to phi0, so that the total sum of the signals delivered by the cells gives the signal A, phi0. Such transmission may find particular application to amplification cell transmitters with discrete output levels.

Abstract: In a method for ultrafine grinding of solid particulate material to mean particle sizes far below 1 micrometer and/or for mixing of powder and agglomerate material with mean particle sizes in the range of nanometers, the material to be ground and/or mixed and an grinding/mixing additive are filled into a cooled grinding chamber containing loose grinding media.

Subsequently the additive is removed from said material. For the production of particle sizes in the range of nanometers and/or for mixing particles of this size range, the method comprises that grinding and/or mixing is carried out in a cooled atmosphere in the presence of a fine grained solidified additive which is chemically inert to said material, preferably water ice or solid carbon dioxide, at temperatures below their melting or sublimation temperature. Subsequently said additive is removed from said material by evaporation. The additive can be evaporated or is volatile at temperatures below 50° C. at ambient pressure. An apparatus for carrying out such method is disclosed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for compressing fixed point signals without introducing a bias. Signals are compressed according to a dithered rounding approach wherein signal values are rounded up and rounded down with approximately equal probability, canceling the bias that would otherwise result from the rounding operation. Numerical properties of the input signal are exploited in order to determine whether the signal value should be rounded up or down. Signal compression may, therefore, be introduced at multiple points within a system without accumulating a signal bias and degrading downstream performance. Further, one bit signal compression may be achieved in a particularly efficient fashion with a minimal amount of hardware.
