Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel process for forming thin metal matrix composite bodies. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer and/or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with a filler material or preform, at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform. Such spontaneous infiltration occurs without the application of any pressure or vacuum. In an embodiment of the present invention, the filler material may be sprayed upon a thin sheet of matrix metal. Alternatively, the filler material may be shaped via tape casting, slip casting, etc. to provide a thin preform. In another embodiment of the present invention, a body of matrix metal may be coated with a filler material such that upon spontaneous infiltration a metal matrix composite body is produced which inversely replicates the configuration of the original body of matrix metal. In yet another embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of thin tape cast preforms which are segregated by a barrier material (e.g., graphite foil) may be infiltrated with a matrix metal during a single spontaneous infiltration process.

Abstract: The system of the invention relates to continuous speech pre-filtering systems for use in discrete and continuous speech recognition computer systems. The speech to be recognized is converted from utterances to frame data sets, which frame data sets are smoothed to generate a smooth frame model over a predetermined number of frames. A resident vocabulary is stored within the computer as clusters of word models which are acoustically similar over a succession of frame periods. A cluster score is generated by the system, which score includes the likelihood of the smooth frames evaluated using a probability model for the cluster against which the smooth frame model is being compared. Cluster sets having cluster scores below a predetermined acoustic threshold are removed from further consideration. The remaining cluster sets are unpacked for determination of a word score for each unpacked word. These word scores are used to identify those words which are above a second predetermined threshold to define a word list which is sent to a recognizer for a more lengthy word match. Control means enable the system to initialize times corresponding to the frame start time for each frame data set, defining a sliding window.

Abstract: In a compressed air lifting device for current collectors, which forms at the same time the only lifting and lowering spring arrangement, a rolling membrane cylinder (1) is used as driving element, the piston shaft (7) of which co-operates with the base shaft (15) of the current collector by means of at least one cable-like element (13, 20) and at least one cam plate (14, 18). This ensures above all that the base shaft (15) and the drive (1) are uncoupled, as far as all transverse vibrations to the piston shaft (7) are concerned. Advantageously, the rolling membrane cylinder (1) can pivot in the vertical direction. A moment-free stressing of the driving element is thus obtained by simple means.

A minimum space requirement is achieved in conjunction with increased reliability when the distance bSp between edges of adjacent bit lines has the same value everywhere, and the contact surfaces can thereby be enlarged.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coupling piece for coupling an implement, such as e.g. an excavator bucket, to the end of a jib of an excavator or the like. The coupling piece can be pivotally connected to the jib as well as to a setting cylinder coupled to the jib. The implement is provided with two connecting plates secured to the implement, said connecting plates being provided with recesses for receiving studs (4) forming part of the coupling piece as well as with conical recesses for receiving a clamping wedge (14) associated with the coupling piece. The coupling piece is also provided with spring means, which are constructed in such a manner that in the situation where the coupling piece is coupled to the implement said spring means tend to draw the clamping wedge (14) firmly into the conical recesses. A setting cylinder (17) is provided on the coupling piece, by means of which the clamping wedge (14) can be moved against the action of the spring means.

Abstract: A low NOx burner combustion system which may be adjusted for optimum burn rates, temperature and oxygen levels. The burner incorporates a plurality of gas nozzles which individually inspirate a portion of the combustion air and a spin vane diffuser to rotate and mix the gases within the primary combustion zone. The diffuser is axially adjustable in order to vary the distance between the vane and the first combustion zone while the blades of the diffuser can be angularly adjusted to optimize the rotation and mix of the gases. Air for combustion is supplied through primary, secondary and tertiary passages to create distinct combustion zones for complete combustion. The flow rate of the combustion air is controlled through a damper in accordance with the burn characteristics. The angular and axial position of the diffuser and the damper control of combustion air can be automatically adjusted throughout the firing range of the burner in response to demand levels. In order to convert existing burners to the efficient low NOx burner of the present invention the primary air chamber may be retrofit into the main burner chamber. In a further embodiment, flue gas is recirculated and mixed directly with combustion fuel prior to combustion for reduced emission levels.

Abstract: The number of zero-crossings in each band of a dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF) signal is counted and compared with that in immediately preceding measurement periods. The magnitude of any difference is established and when it is at least equal to a threshold value, pref. one, the input signal is considered to be a DTMF signal. The energy parameter, representative of the tone energy in a signal, is measured in real time in each band, and three threshold values for the difference from average values determined. The measured difference values are compared with the thresholds to determine if a DTMF signal exists. An interference frequency is accepted when occurring in successive measuring periods.
