Abstract: A convergence correcting apparatus is used in a projection television receiver including a CRT (1010) having an aspherical fluorescent screen (P₁) and a projection lens apparatus which is attached to the display screen of the CRT and has aspherical plastic lenses (101, 103, 104). In the digital convergence correcting apparatus, a digital memory (8) stores digital correction data corresponding to correction values of convergence adjustment points (201) indicative of a plurality of points on the display screens divided in the horizontal and vertical directions. A multi­plexer (15) reads out predetermined digital correction data from the digital memory (8) and time sharingly multiplexes. At least one digital/analog converter (19) receives the time sharingly multiplexed data from the multiplexer (15) and generates an analog signal. Sample and hold circuits (26, 26′) extract a predetermined correction signal from the analog output of the digital/analog converter (19) and sample and hold them. The convergence correcting apparatus is driven in accordance with the respective correction signals held by the sample and hold circuits (26, 26′).

Abstract: A method for inserting an additional channel into a main channel during the transmission of data between two stations via optical waveguides is specified. For this purpose, bits of the optical additional channel are inserted with a bit rate which is lower compared with the main channel at an arbitrary position in each case in place of a double bit at defined intervals which are known in the transcoder of the receiving station into an optical main channel originating from the transcoder of the transmitting station and removed again from the optical main channel at the receiver end. The bits of the additional channel inserted into the main channel are double bits which are equal to an illegal bit combination which is obtained during the recoding of the electrical AMI code into the optical CMI code. At the receiver end, the double bits of the main channel, replaced by the bits of the additional channel, are recovered by means of a sequential logic as determined by the rules of the electrical code.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fifth-wheel coupling with a fifth-wheel plate which has a coupling mouth, ending in a central recess, for a fifth-wheel kingpin of a semitrailer and in the fifth-wheel plate bears articulated locking elements for said kingpin, of which one element is constructed as an approximately V-shaped coupling claw swivellably arranged in the fifth-wheel plate whilst the other element is a lever which is swivellable in the fifth-wheel plate and has a locking projection which can be engaged with the coupling claw. So that the fifth-wheel coupling is simpler and lighter in design and actuation, it is provided that the leg of the coupling claw which follows on during the insertion of the fifth-wheel kingpin has an annular cutout-shaped abutment face on the outside in the end region, which face can be engaged with the corresponding locking projection of the lever, a counter stop with a guide face for the locking projection being provided on the fifth-wheel plate on the side facing away from the stop face and the single-armed lever being coupled in a virtually transverse force-free manner adjacent to the widening section of the coupling mouth.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of physiological salts of thiocyanic acid in humans as cosmetic agent for hair care, for maintaining and promoting hair growth and for increasing the resistance of the hair to injurious effects. The composition and the process can likewise be used in productive livestock to increase yields and improve quality (gloss, skin texture, hair strength and elasticity, density and uniformity of the hair coat, softness and strength when processing) in the production of wool, furs, leather or feathers. Sodium thiocyanate or potassium thiocyanate or mixtures of these substances are preferably used. In humans, use is predominantly external (as additive to bath water, to hair lotions, shampoos or cosmetics), and in productive livestock it is predominantly oral by admixture with the feed or by administration with thiocyanate-supplemented feedstuffs.

Abstract: Disclosed are a process for forming an open-celled microporous membrane (e.g., in film or fiber form) and a novel microporous membrane formed thereby. The process generally includes sequential cold and hot stretching operations, whereby the cold stretching operation is preferably accomplished in a plurality of discrete cold stretching steps. In this regard, the total cold stretch extension is of greater than about 30 percent, and advantageously greater than about 40 percent based upon the initial unstretched length of the nonporous precursor, with this total cold stretch ratio being distributed among a plurality of discrete cold stretching steps. The novel membranes of this invention are characterized by decreased pore sizes and increased pore densities. For example, the membranes of this invention will have an average pore radius as determined by mercury porosimetry of less than about .040 micron. The membranes of this invention, moreover, exhibit a distinctive "bluish" color hue (i.e., a Macbeth Coloreye@ b *  value of less than about -10 as determined by placing a single ply sample of the membrane against a black background).
