Abstract: A process for the hydrogenation of a 6-methylene-­tetracycline in the production of alpha-6-deoxytetracycline, particularly the antibiotic doxycycline, in the presence of a transition metal complex of the formula MCl x (PPh₃) y  wherein M is preferably Cu, Co or Ni, x is 1 or 2 and y is 1-3, and a trace of rhodium either as the supported metal or as a rhodium salt, as a hydrogenation catalyst. The desired alpha-6-deoxytetracycline product is produced in high yields and stereospecificities. The process requires the use of substantially cheaper transition metal complexes and only traces of rhodium in the hydrogenation catalyst per mole of the 6-methylene tetracycline hydrogenated.

Abstract: On a mis au point un appareil utilisé avec des capteurs de torsion sans contact. Des nombreux capteurs de torsion sans contact utilisent des structures de bobine inductive encombrantes afin d'induire un flux magnétique dans l'arbre dont on veut mesurer la torsion, et afin de détecter un changement de perméabilité magnétique de l'arbre en réponse à la torsion qui lui est appliquée. Ces grosses structures encombrantes ont un coût de fabrication relativement élevé et sont difficiles à produire et à installer. A titre de solution, on a prévu une structure (28) de bobine inductive souple analogue à un ruban. La conception à deux couches de cette structure (28) de bobine lui permet d'assurer une répartition de flux magnétique adéquate, similaire à celle de structures beaucoup plus grosses. En outre, l'agencement unique des bobines se traduit par une structure efficace et précise induisant et détectant le flux magnétique.

Abstract: Un ventilateur axial sert de préférence à refroidir le moteur à combustion interne d'un véhicule à moteur. Le ventilateur axial comprend un bâti d'admission (26) agencé devant la roue (12) du ventilateur, vu dans le sens d'écoulement du milieu, et une bague (20) agencée aux extrémités libres des aubes de la roue du ventilateur, qui entoure la couronne d'aubes et dont le côté qui fait face à l'écoulement s'élargit en entonnoir, de sorte qu'une fente axiale (28) se forme entre le bâti (26) et la bague (20) du ventilateur. Même sans tolérances relativement étroites de fabrication entre la roue (12) du ventilateur et le bâti d'admission (26), on obtient un ventilateur axial particulièrement silencieux en prévoyant une bague extérieure (30) qui s'étend dans le sens d'écoulement du milieu du bâti d'admission (26) jusqu'à au moins le bord en entonnoir (32) de la bague du ventilateur, de sorte qu'une fente radiale (34) se forme entre celle-ci et la bague extérieure (30).

Abstract: This invention relates to a numerical controller (CNC) which checks the machining program by operating a manual operation key or the like. A direction signal which determines the direction of a distribution pulse and a speed signal which determines a distribution speed are inputted from an operation board (4). Pulse distribution means (5) synchronizes the machining program processed by pre-processing means (3) with the speed signal, distributes the pulses by forward feed when the direction signal is positive and distributes them by reverse feed when the direction signal is negative. In this manner, processing of the machining program becomes easy.

Abstract: The invention concerns a folding fastener for a bracelet whose opening is controlled by push buttons. The fastener comprises a base (1) formed from two longitudinal members (4, 4'), two push buttons (5, 5'), each push button being integral with a longitudinal member, and two arms (10) articulated about the ends of the base (1), each arm, whose free end is connected to one end of a bracelet, comprising two branches (11, 11') disposed on either side of the base. In the closed position, the arms (10) are folded down on the base (1) and join each other at its centre. The fastener is held in this position by means of locking devices (15, 15') comprising a pin (16) and groove (17), the pin and the groove being disposed on the opposite lateral faces of a longitudinal member (4, 4') and of a branch (11, 11') respectively in such a way that one can penetrate by force into the other. The fastener is opened by applying a force (F, F') to each push button (5, 5') in order to bring the centres of the longitudinal members (4, 4') closer together and to release the pins (16) from the corresponding grooves (17). The fastener according to the invention being a safety fastener, it is intended to be fitted in particular to watch bracelets. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Auf Drehmaschinen werden in zunehmendem Maße die Werkstücke auch im stillstehenden Zustand mit angetriebenen Werkzeugen außermittig bearbeitet. Zu diesem Zweck muß das Werkstück in eine exakt definierte Drehlage gebracht werden können. Der genaue und möglichst spielfreie, langsam zu vollziehende Antrieb des Werkstückes, bis die gewünschte Drehlage erreicht ist, erfordert eine spezielle Ausbildung des Hauptspindelgetriebes. Ein C-Achsantrieb mit der gewünschten Genauigkeit soll dabei mit einem geringstmöglichen baulichen Aufwand realisiert werden, wobei der mit zunehmender Betriebszeit auftretende Verschleiß, der die Genauigkeit des Drehachsantriebes beeinträchtigt, ohne großen Aufwand kompensierbar sein soll. Dies wird erreicht, indem in einer Schaltstellung des Hauptspindelgetriebes ausschließlich spielfrei gehaltene Zahnradpaarungen (16, 25 bzw 26/36) miteinander in Eingriff stehen, wobei das Getriebe durch Axialverschiebung der Zahnräder (24, 25, 26) schaltbar ist und die spielfrei zu betreibenden Zahnradpaarungen (16, 25 bzw 26, 36) aus leicht konischen Zahnrädern (16, 25, 26, 36) bestehen, die für den normalen Drehantrieb der Hauptspindel (33) geringfügig axial auseinandergefahren werden, bis ein normalspielbehafteter Eingriff gegeben ist.

Abstract: In a circuit arrangement for the digital/analog conversion of a digital signal with high amplitude resolution, particularly an audio signal, several digital/analog convertors (DAC1-DACK) are provided to which, in a first operating mode, a group of the binary digits of the digital signal can be supplied in each case and the output signals of which are added, taking into consideration the values of the respective binary digits. The digital/analog convertors have in each case at least one binary digit more than a group. The value ranges of the output signals of the digital/analog convertors correspondingly overlap. In a second operating mode, two digital/analog convertors, which are adjacent with respect to the value ranges of their output signals, are in each case actuated in such a manner that their output signals are located within the region of overlap. By forming the difference of the output signals produced from the two digital/analog convertors, a correction voltage is generated which is added to the output signal of one of the convertors in the direction of minimising the difference. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a learning method implemented within a neural network which operates in accordance with the gradient back-propagation algorithm. In order to determine the new synaptic coefficients with a minimal learning period, the invention introduces parameters which favour corrections based on the sign of the error at the start of learning, and which gradually execute less abrupt corrections. This can be supplemented with other parameters favouring a layer-by-layer strategy, accelerating learning on input layers relative to output layers. It is also possible to append a strategy operating throughout the neural network. Application: layered neural networks. <IMAGE>
