Abstract: A telephone answering system for providing textual messages and voice messages generated by telephone answering of telephones of persons having telephone calls answered by the system. A system memory stores textural and voice messages. A voice message recording system controls recording of voice messages of answered telephone calls of persons having telephone calls answered by the telephone answering system. A textual message recording system controls recording of textual messages provided by an operator who answers telephone calls made to persons having their telephones answered by the telephone answering system. A programmed computer program implements the voice message recording system and the textual message recording system by execution of a program. The computer decodes a telephone number of each telephone call answered by the telephone answering system, determines a program service option to be performed in answering each telephone call based upon the decoded telephone number, causes the voice message recording system to record a voice message in the system memory if the service option is specified to be answering telephone calls by the voice message recording system, initiates ringing of an operator to cause the operator to answer the telephone call and causes the textual message recording system to record textual messages in the system memory if the service option is specified to use an operator to record textual messages. The recording systems function to permit selective playback of individual recorded messages by the placing of a telephone call to the answering system.

Abstract: Conventional tappet retainer assemblies for a fuel injection pump typically include a blind radial passage formed in a tappet. Only one opening in the passage is available for inserting and removing a ball bearing or spring and stop pin which must be held in place before the tappet is inserted in a housing bore. In such an arrangement, the ball bearing or compressed spring and stop pin are prone to pop or fall out before the passage opening is closed by an internal wall of the housing bore. The present invention provides an improved tappet retainer assembly (10) which includes a housing (16), a tappet (18), a stop device (22), and a biasing device (24). The tappet (18) includes an internal passage (44) which allows the stop device (22) and biasing device (24) to be communicated to their final assembled position in the internal passage (44) while the tappet (18) is already inserted in a bore (28) of the housing (16).

Abstract: A light beam which scans the data on an optical recording support, generates an r.f. signal in the recording and/or playback device. As the r.f. signal is interrupted when the light beam leaves a data track, the detector circuit recognises from the r.f. signal level whether the beam is passing from one data track to the next. As the interruptions in the r.f. signal can also be caused by dirt, damage or errors on the recording support, it is impossible to be certain whether such an interruption has been caused by a track change or by dirt, damage or errors on the recording support. In order to recognise track changes reliably, the detector circuit does not generate a signal indicating a track change until the r.f. signal (HF) is below a first predetermined threshold (R1) and at the same time a track error signal (TE) is above a second predetermined threshold (R2). Detector circuit which recognises when a scanner leaves a mark or data track, e.g. in CD players, video record players, DRAW-disc players and magneto-optical recording and/or playback devices.

Abstract: 2.1 Using a decentralised control processor which is responsible for several junction lines, transmitting and receiving processes for audio frequencies are to be controlled in such an manner that different types of audio frequencies can be transmitted and received individually for each junction line. In addition, the prerequisites are to be created for providing for individual adaptation of the transmitting and receiving levels. 2.2 The decentralised control processor is connected to a digital signal processor which is connected to at least one junction line via transformer circuits. The digital signal processor receives from the control processor adjusting instructions which contain parameters which characterise the signals or signal sequences to be transmitted or to be received in each case. These are used for forming digital generators for transmitting and digital filters for receiving within the digital signal processor. Adjusting instructions can be used for selecting a junction line when the control processor and the digital signal processor is responsible for several junction lines. The signals to be transmitted and to be received in each case are in each case determined in dependence on the state of connection of the relevant junction line, determined by the control processor. 2.3 Using this circuit arrangement, several junction lines can be served by in each case one decentralised control processor and one digital signal processor and the audio frequencies which are to be transmitted and received can be selected for each individual junction line. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un procédé et un appareil permettent de mesurer avec précision la longueur d'un objet allongé, tel qu'un câble de communications, pendant que celui-ci se déplace. Un appareil approprié de mesure comprend des caractéristiques combinées d'un système de marquage et d'un système de codage. Dans le système de marquage, un marqueur (43) inscrit des marques (44) sur un câble (1) à des intervalles qui servent d'unités de mesure, afin de pouvoir détecter le déplacement du câble par unités, représentées par les marques. Un capteur (46), tel qu'un commutateur laser, détecte les marques et compte celles qui passent pendant que le câble s'avance. La différence trés réduite entre l'intervalle de référence de mesure et un espacement entre les marques (MS) dans le système de marquage, en d'autres termes, la longueur en excès (Ci), est calculée sur la base de la valeur enregistrée par un codeur au moment de détection de la marque. Le corps principal (51) de l'appareil de mesure commande le marqueur et le capteur et calcule le déplacement final ou longueur mesurée du câble en additionnant le produit de l'intervalle de référence de mesure et la valeur du compte à la somme des longueurs en excès décrites ci-dessus.
