Abstract: A method of controlling a welding operation during arc welding between a fusible electrode and a workpiece, wherein the welding operation alternates between arc periods and short-circuiting periods, includes the steps of sensing a first parameter of the welding operation, for example the arc voltage between the electrode and the workpiece, generating a first signal representative of the first parameter, sensing a second parameter of the welding operation, generating a second signal representative of the second parameter, filtering the second signal to provide a filtered signal, generating a desired value signal based upon the filtered signal and controlling the welding operation based upon the difference between the desired value signal and the first signal. According to the method of the present invention, any changes in the second signal that occur at a frequency outside a predetermined frequency range, which includes a desired short-circuiting frequency of the welding operation, are attenuated such that the desired value signal is less affected by these changes than by changes occurring at a frequency within the predetermined frequency range. An apparatus for carrying out the method includes a band-pass filter having a pass band including the desired short-circuiting frequency.

Abstract: A vacuum molding process for adhering a porous, foam-backed fabric 50 to a thermoplastic substrate 60 and for providing a nonplanar contour to the substrate 60 with fabric 50 adhered thereto. The porous, foam-backed fabric 50 is loosely positioned over a female mold 30. The substrate 60 is heated sufficiently for the substrate 60 to sag. The sagging substrate 60 is deposited over the female mold 30 in a manner whereby the substrate 60 contacts the fabric 50 around an effective mold perimeter 36. A vacuum applied through the female mold 30 is transmitted through the porous foam-backed fabric 50 and attracts the sagging substrate 60 into the mold 30. The attraction causes contact and adhesion of the heated substrate 60 and the foam-backed fabric 50.

Abstract: A decimating filter comprising a multiplexer (1) which is supplied with signal values (xi) at a predetermined sampling rate (1/T) and which outputs signal values at half the sampling rate via two outputs (3, 5). These outputs (3, 5) are connected for each significant position of the p-digit binary filter coefficients (c6 to c1) to separate bit-specific circuits (bit planes) (BP1, BP2) which in each case contain the partial-product stages (Mc60...Mc10, Mc61...Mc11) of all filter coefficient bits of a particular significance and an adder-register chain circuit (8...30, 8'...30') associated with these bits. The output (30') of the chain circuit of the most significant bit plane (BP2) represents the filter output.

Abstract: The object of the invention is to simplify a known portable radio apparatus in which an accumulator for the power supply is accommodated in a special carrying device. The object is achieved by providing one wall (12) of the casing (11) of the portable radio apparatus with a depression (13) which is filled by a power supply block (14). The power supply block has mechanical blocking means (18, 22) which match corresponding blocking means (19, 23) in the depression (13). On its underside, the power supply block has battery contacts (35, 36), which make contact with mating contacts (38, 39) in the floor (37) of the depression. A preferred application of the invention is in a radio telephone. The drawing shows an exploded view of a radio apparatus casing and two power supply blocks of different design. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A silver halide photographic material composed of a support having thereon at least one silver halide emulsion layer containing substantially normal silver halide grains having a (111) plane and a (100) plane and capable of preferentially forming a latent image on the (100) plane; the (111) plane occupying at least about 40% of the surface of the grains or the (100) plane occupying more than about 60% of the surface of the grains; provided that when the (111) plane occupies at least about 40% of the surface of the grains, the grains are spectrally sensitized with (a) at least one spectral sensitizing dye selectively. adsorbed more on the (100) plane than on the (111) plane, or (b) at least one spectral sensitizing dye selectively adsorbed more on the (111) plane than on the (100) plane.

Abstract: The (plasticised) melt rendered able to flow must be degassed on its way to the outlet. To make the degassing section pressureless, an upstream restrictor (4) is provided, through which the melt flows. The through-flow cross-sectional area of the at least one spiral of an extruder screw (1) is shut off and the restrictor (4) is provided with an adjustable through-flow cross-sectional area. The restrictor may comprise, in a simple way, two breaker plates (12, 13), which are turned about their longitudinal axis counter to each other in their plane. Each breaker plate has an invariable through-flow cross-sectional area. The holes (20, 21) of the two breaker plates (12, 13) coincide with one another more or less (A, C) or not at all (B). As a result, depending on the state or type of melt, the rate of throughput of the melt through the extrusion apparatus can be controlled independently of the speed of the extruder screw (1). To a greater extent than before, different melts can be conveyed by the same extruder screw (1). It is also possible to operate with a shorter extruder screw than hitherto. The breaker plates (12, 13) can be easily interchanged.
