Abstract: The invention relates to a case for electric motors, there being a tubular section having a structural element which surrounds said tubular section and is located above it, and the tubular section being closed on both sides. The invention is characterised in that the tubular section has openings into which depressions from the wall of the structural element are pressed in the manner of a bowl. The advantages achieved using the invention are, in particular, that flanges and pipes are connected to the case in a simple manner, such that they cannot rotate or be displaced, great accuracy being achieved in positioning and high process reliability being achieved in the production of the connection, by virtue of the nature of the configuration, and the corrosion resistance being maintained. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An optical multiplexing system has a source 1, 3 of depolarized radiation at one end of a non-birefringent optical fibre 4 that extends to a decoding interferometer 5. Sensors 11 to 13 in series along the fibre induce birefringence so that the radiation is superimposed onto two polarization modes producing two output wave trains from each sensor with different time separations. The interferometer 5 measures the time separations of the wave trains to identify the sensor and its output.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display having a shading member, and in particular to a method of manufacturing such a shading member. The method comprises the steps of: 
   forming an ITO film on a transparent substrate; and 
   selectively reducing a specified region of said ITO film in order to decrease the transparency of the region of said ITO film. 
     In this way the shading member is formed in the ITO film that forms the common electrode, and hence provides a compact arrangement. The shading member formed by this method, when incorporated in a liquid crystal display, absorbs both background light and light incident on it from a back light and so reduces the amount of light entering the transistors of the display.

Abstract: A character recognition method capable of determining the direction of row of characters, applicable to a language which can be written in horizontal or vertical direction, such as Japanese language, is disclosed. The method takes projection in both directions, by counting black pixels, and compares the obtained counts with a threshold value. The text is identified as horizontally or vertically written, respectively if the count exceed the threshold value more in the horizontal or vertical direction. Projection is taken again in the perpendicular direction, after the writing direction is determined, to extract each character, which is subjected to character recognition in known manner. Thus the method can achieve automatic recognition, without instruction of the direction of writing, by the operator.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) having an incineration chamber (12) and at least one burner (14,16) for oxidizing fumes is provided. First and second regenerators (18,20) are in fluid communication with the incineration chamber, as is a bypass (22) which introduces unburnt fumes to the incineration chamber without passing them through either of the regenerators. While the fumes are in the bypass, a purging device (24), including a purge fan (56) and accompanying conduits (52,54) and valves (58), introduces a purge gas to either one of the regenerators to force unburnt fumes therefrom. The purged fumes and the purge gas are mixed with the incoming fumes from the bypass in an annular plenum (47) downstream of the purged regenerator before they are introduced to the incineration chamber for oxidation. The flow of incoming fumes to the system may be continuous, even during purging, and the purge fan may also be continuously operated.

Abstract: An improved current source having high output impedance, low saturation voltage, and less sensitivity to process parameters is achieved by having enhancement P-channel transistor devices used as current mirror, while depletion P-channel transistor devices are provided as the cascode devices. A "diode connected" depletion device may be inserted between the enhancement gate and the drain of the current reference transistor to reduce saturation voltage. The "diode connected" depletion device keeps the drains of the enhancement devices at a similar voltage even when the enhancement and depletion device threshold, i.e. V T , do not track over temperature or process. Thus, the current mirror circuit provides not only higher output impedance, lower saturation voltage, but is also less sensitive to process variation.

Abstract: Fast image acquisition and image process control are used to advantage to measure dynamic and transient phenomena. This technique distinguishes fluid from bubbles by taking an image of a container containing fluid and modifying the gray levels of the image. Unmodified image processing can be performed without the disadvantage of large time consumption. The technique is used for detecting fluid levels and bubble, by counting image pixels dedicated to bubbles or to fluid along vertical or horizontal lines within the image. The rate of change of liquid level and the amount of bubbles with time indicate leakage in containers while they are in a dynamic state. The inspection of transient phenomena during a dynamic state gives an indication of the final quality and quantity of a product inside a container. It also provides feedback for the determination of fill nozzle operation, with the advantage of easy calibration and adjustment for the right amount of bubbles within the container. It also provides an indication of mechanical or thermal failures and feedback to indicate any unit which deviates from preset parameters. The system is highly beneficial in the beer and soft drink industry where the taste of the product is highly influenced by the amount of bubbles within the container.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus for and a method of automatically creating a supplemental segment in two-dimensional drawings. Two-dimensional drawing data concerning at least three views depicted based on orthogonal projection is previously stored in a drawing data storage device. Knowledge for recognizing three-dimensional solid model restored on the basis of the two-dimensional drawing data is previously stored in a knowledge storage device. The knowledge stored in the knowledge storage device is applied to the two-dimensional drawing data stored in the drawing data storage device, so that the three-dimensional solid model restored on the basis of the two-dimensional drawing data is recognized. An area where the supplemental segment is to be created is determined in the two-dimensional drawings on the basis of the recognized three-dimensional solid model. At least two end points of the supplemental segment to be created are determined in the determined area. The supplemental segment connecting the determined end points is finally created.

This cut part is utilized so as to set a circumferential position (a stop of rotation) between the input shaft 101 and an eccentric body 103. A carrier pin 116 has a pipe-like spacer 125 at its central part, the axial position of the flange part 114, the carrier pin 116 and the support ring 117 is set through a spacer 125.
