Patent EP-0298959-B1 (EP)
IPC: H04B1/10
Filed: 1986-11-03
Granted: 1992-08-12
Abstract: An improved FM communication system is disclosed in which noise bursts and pops in the audio output of the receiver, due to weak and Rayleigh-faded signals, are minimized by selectively attenuating the audio signal in the receiver. The amount and rate of attenuation for the receiver noise reduction circuits is determined by a control signal derived form either the average discriminator noise at frequencies above 3 kHz, or from a received RF signal strength indicator, or a combination of both. The audio output is attenuated during weak signals or Rayleigh fades only when the attenuation control signal increases above a predetermined signal-to-noise ratio threshold. Also described are further improvements to noise attenuation devices used in combination with the receiver noise reduction circuits to enhance audio quality in particular applications, e.g., FM repeater systems which may incorporate multiple transmitters in a simulcast configuration.

Abstract: A machine tool has a spindle head pivotable through 180 degrees and having a spindle rotatably mounted in its housing. As a result of the pivoting movement, the spindle head can be shifted from a vertical to a horizontal working position. The spindle head has a toolholder and an axially displaceable tension rod. Through the tension rod runs a coolant bore extending into the working zone of the clamped tool. The coolant bore is connected to a line in a transfer piston displaceable in the spindle-head housing. The coolant bore and the transfer piston line are constantly in communication so that coolant flows uninterruptedly during displacement of the transfer piston. The line communicates with a coolant supply system. The coolant can be conveyed into the working zone of the tool in any position of the tool spindle and without any appreciable increase in size of the spindle head.

Title: Device for eliminating parasitic rotations of mobile mirrors in laser gyrometers
IPC: G01C19/66
Filed: 1988-02-18
Granted: 1991-05-29
Abstract: A device for eliminating parasitic rotations of the mobile mirrors (15) of gyrolasers driven by piezoelectric ceramics (11). These parasitic rotations are caused by deformations of the external part (12) which constitutes the body of the mobile mirror and is attached to the optical block (1) under the effect of the accelerations of the activating motion. These parasitic rotations are corrected in the invention by semi-circular ceramics (26) glued around the external part (12), which, when driven by an electronic circuit, correct the deformations of the said external part (12). The invention is applicable to all lasers and in particular to gyrolasers.

Abstract: In order to sort spent glass, fragments with an edge length between 5 and 50 mm are produced by means of a crusher. They are cleaned and divided up into a plurality of fractions according to size by means of a classifier and the fragments with edge lengths below 5 mm are collected as mixed glass. The fragments of each fraction are fed separately from collecting containers (8a to 8c) by means of a conveying device (9) to storage containers (10) in each case, from which the fragments are individually fed to a respective multiplicity of assigned slides (12 and 15 to 17). Colour detection units, preferably light transmitters and receivers measuring for absorption, are provided for detecting the glass colour (colourless, green, brown; non-transparent, non-glass material). As a function of the value of the light transmission, the fragments are fed to predetermined adjacent slides and via the slides directed into assigned sorting containers (18 to 21), sorted according to colours (Fig. 1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A cardboard box (7) with a flanged top edge (25) can be made from a one-piece cut-out. A single or double flanged edge folded around the outside of the box is produced by a machine which folds down and glues an edge strip on the flat cut-out once or twice in consecutive steps. The three-dimensional box shape is obtained by folding down the side walls and gluing them together. The flanged edge confers the necessary dimensional stability on the box made of cut-out material and the box is considerably lighter than conventional boxes of similar size with no flanged edge.
