Abstract: The pylon sections are bolted together with an improved screw fastener comprising a high tensile screw (6) and washer and with profiled thrust elements (10,12) to grip each side of the clamped sections. The thrust elements have profiled grip surfaces to spread the grip over an area away from the hole. The thrust elements have a degree of elasticity and grip the metal sections with sufficient force to keep in the elastic limits of the metal of which the sections are made. The screw fasteners can be retrofitted to existing pylons by replacing the existing fasteners one by one.

Abstract: A cryptosystem utilizes the properties of discrete logs in finite groups, either in a public key message exchange or in a key exchange and generation protocol. If the group selected has subgroups of relatively small order, the message may be exponentiated by a factor of the order of the group to place the message in a subgroup of relatively small order. To inhibit such substitution, the base or generator of the cryptosystem is chosen to be a generator of a subgroup of prime order or a subgroup of an order having a number of relatively small divisors. The message may be exponentiated to each of the relatively small divisors and the result checked for the group identity. If the group identity is found, it indicates a vulnerability to substitution and is rejected.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un amplificateur-limiteur à fréquence intermédiaire dont chacun des étages d'amplification fait appel à une rétroaction positive localisée fournissant un gain additionnel pour les signaux faibles, tout en maintenant le gain limite. Le gain additionnel sur les signaux faibles accroît la sensibilité générale du récepteur pour un courant de polarisation inférieur. La diminution du nombre des étages nécessaires pour produire une même réponse de signal se traduit par une diminution sensible de la consommation du circuit.

Abstract: In the communication system using the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation method, an erroneous data that might be caused by a carrier slip of carrier wave generated during coherent detection can be compensated. The modulation unit of the transmitter transmits identical data at differentiated timing through BPSK modulation, and the coherent detector circuit of the demodulation unit of the receiver detects waves upon receiving signals. The compensating circuit makes time differences in transmitted data equal and compares them to detect mismatch in order to compensate carrier slip found in the received signal and then the combination circuit realizes the combination.

Abstract: An image display game apparatus has a display screen which displays randomly selected five cards with their faces up. Based on the player's evaluation of the cards, the player selectively presses a first group of push buttons to select unwanted cards and indicate replacement of the cards. When the player presses a push button in a second group, the selected unwanted cards are replaced with new cards. If the new combination of the cards achieves a prize-winning hand, then the player wins and is awarded a credit based on odds for the prize-winning hand. The player then pushes another push button in the second group to receive medals corresponding to the credit. The image display game apparatus has an odds display device which displays a present prize-winning hand and odds thereof, a possible prize-winning hand and odds thereof, and other prize-winning hands and odds thereof in respective display modes, e.g., color shades, different from each other.

Abstract: A mean vehicle speed Va and a mean variation ΔVa are factors reflecting a current driving condition and an expected driving condition of a vehicle, which relate to a charge-discharge amount of a battery. A target state SOC* of the battery is calculated from the mean vehicle speed Va and the mean variation ΔVa. The charge-discharge amount of the battery increases with an increase in mean vehicle speed Va and mean variation ΔVa. The lower charging state of the battery results in the higher charge-discharge efficiency. The structure of the present invention sets the target state SOC* of the battery and controls the actual state of the battery to the target state SOC*, thereby enhancing the charge-discharge efficiency of the battery and ensuring a sufficient supply of electric power required for driving the vehicle.
