Abstract: In a process for the manufacture of fuel briquettes, preferably for generating heating energy, a non-caking, finely granular carbon carrier, preferably petroleum coke, and a pitch-containing binder are mixed and this starting mixture is briquetted to give pre-mouldings, and the fuel briquettes are formed from the pre-mouldings by a consolidating heat treatment. The pitch-containing binder used is a binder mixture of pitch and caking coal at a temperature from more than 100 DEG C to 200 DEG C. The non-caking carbon carrier is mixed with the binder mixture at a mixing temperature which is within the same temperature range. The pre-mouldings are briquetted at this mixing temperature. The pre-mouldings are subjected to a heat treatment having an end temperature of more than 400 DEG C. The invention also relates to the fuel briquettes produced.

Title: Grid-correction device for a tv set.
Inventor: GLEIM GUENTER
IPC: H04N9/28
Filed: 1990-10-30
Abstract: A device is useful for correcting the grid in a TV set. In known grid-correction devices, in particular for correcting the convergence, correction values for certain pixels determined by points of intersection (K) of a grid pattern are stored in memories. In devices with several operating modes with different deflection amplitudes, fresh correction values must be stored for each operating mode, because the points of intersection shift on the picture area. In order to reduce the number of memories in operating modes with different deflection amplitudes, the instantaneous position of the control pulses for the grid pattern is varied so that the points of intersection (K) are always located at the same spatial positions of the picture area (1). The device is particularly useful for correcting the convergence in projection TV sets.

Abstract: A biomagnetometer measures the magnetic field produced by the brain as a result of a visual stimulus delivered by a display device such as a cathode ray tube (CRT). The output signal of the biomagnetometer is filtered to remove noise introduced by the operation of the display device itself, such as the repetitive scan signal of the CRT, and the CRT monitor is otherwise operated from DC power to minimize periodic variations that can interfere with the detection of brain signals. The filtering is preferably accomplished using a comb-notch filter. Cancellation coils and shielding are also preferably used to remove a portion of the noise introduced by the display device.
