Abstract: A groove (9) is formed on the outer periphery of an adapter (1) which is connected to the electric motor (3). A fluid supply line (11) is also formed on the adapter (1) so as to lead fluid to the groove (9). Openings (27) are provided at a proximal end of a shank (22), adjacent to the groove (9). Guide flutes (28) extending from the openings (27) to a tip of the shank (22) are formed at an outer periphery of the shank (22) so as to define passages for leading the fluid introduced from the openings (27) to the tip of the shank (22) to be sprayed upon the cutting debris. Exhaust ports (14) for discharging the debris and exhaust passages (15) for leading the debris through the shank (22) to the exhaust ports (14) are provided at the adapter (1). The guide flutes (28) can be formed with milling machine or the like. 
     In use the drill or tubular saw is pressed against a material (51) while being rotated. Then, the fluid is introduced into the passages (28) betwen the shank (22) and a sleeve (29) and is sprayed upon the cutting debris. A suction is applied through a central portion of the shank (22) to remove the ctting debris. The suction is strong enough to suck granular abrasives into the drilling area from outside the drill. The abrasive effect of the abrasives promotes self sharpening of the cutting teeth. Abrasives are supplied to the drilling area when the cutting teeth (26) come into contact with reinforcing bars embedded in the concrete (51) being sawn.

Abstract: The crucible (10) includes an upstanding sidewall formed of a plurality of internally cooled, metal segments (12) arranged in side-by side relation to form a crucible chamber (15) for receiving the metal to be melted. The segments (12) are separated from one another by longitudinal gaps (G) that communicate on the inside with the crucible chamber (15) and extend outwardly to the exterior of the sidewall. The gaps (G) are free of packing material that could constitute a potential source of melt contamination and are so sized in a width dimension where the gap and the chamber (15) communicate as to substantially prevent penetration of molten metal into the gaps (G) when the metal charge is initially melted in the crucible chamber (15) prior to the development of a solidified metal skull. Upper portions of the crucible segments (12) are restrained against outward spreading during use to provide a crucible (10) durable enough for use in production melting applications. The crucible eliminates the need for a CaF₂ type lining (skull) and for intersegment refractory packing material, thereby improving melt cleanliness.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving the accuracy and reliability of positioning magnetic recording heads (28) upon rotating magnetic media (30) in a flexible disk drive assembly. The disk drive of the present invention implements a closed loop head positioning scheme. A capacitive transducer assembly (32, 34) is used to provide track crossing information for track positioning purposes. The capacitive transducer scheme includes a transmitter (32) and a receiver (34). The receiver is mounted on the disk drive and is fixed relative to the transmitter which is mounted on the read/write head carriage (26). The relative positions of the transmitter and receiver is determined by comparing the phase of the transmitter signal to the transmitter-induced output signal of the receiver. A "comb" pattern is implemented in the transmitter and receiver and generates time coincident zero crossings that indicate track crossings. A special signature pattern, that may be separate from the track positioning pattern is used to identify a track zero location.Track zero and index position sensor (29) is fixed when the disk drive is manufactured. Any alignment errors are identified and an offset correction factor is generated to compensate for the errors. This offset compensation factor is stored in a nonvolatile memory (12) and is utilized by disk drive control electronics during operation of the drive to insure appropriate drive operation.

Abstract: The invention provides a new high temperature isotopic exchange fuel processing loop for tritium recovery in which tritium is exchanged out of impurities such as tritiated ammonia, methane and water by swamping with H₂ (32) and isotopically equilibrating the mixture in a high temperature reactor. Downstream of the reactor is a Pd/Ag (12) permeator for separation of the hydrogen from the impurities, the separated hydrogen being sent to an isotope separation system (13) for tritium recovery and the residual impurities being recycled. The process eliminates the need for impurity oxidation and electrolysis of DTO and does not rely on complicated catalytic decomposition reactions.

Abstract: The principle of the radio clock is to use radio to transmit coded time signals from a transmitter to a receiver. The current clock time is thereby always exactly set. When this principle is applied in time switches (4) for boiler controllers (3), the aim is to avoid the separate cabling of a receiver (8) at a location remote from the time switch (4). For this purpose, the receiver (8) is located in the remote control unit (6), which is connected to the boiler controller (3) and situated in the living area (5). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention pertains to developments for manipulating and referencing a magnetic tape cassette in a magnetic tape device involving loading, read/write and tape drive operation, and unloading. To load and unload the tape cassette, a tape drive bridge on which the magnetic head is mounted is disposed in a standby position out of the way of the path of movement of the tape cassette into and out of the recorder housing. A gripper disposed for longitudinal movement on a gear rack in the recorder housing, is arranged to bite the cassette to automatically carry the cassette inwardly to its fully loaded position and then again move the cassette outwardly to its unloaded position. A lever arm arrangement is provided to appropriately open the dust cover door on the tape cassette, to expose the cassette tape for operational engagement by the magnetic head, as the tape cassette approaches its fully loaded position within the recorder housing. The gear rack serves to activate this lever arm for opening the dust cover. The tape cassette is preferably loaded endwise into the recorder housing, and when the cassette has been fully loaded in the recorder housing, the tape drive bridge carrying the magnetic head is rotated in all three axes from its standby position to its running position. In its running position, the tape drive bridge locks the tape cassette to it, by gripping the cassette at three reference areas on the bridge. A manual eject mechanism utilizes an exposed button on the recorder housing which is manipulated by the operator to causing unloading of a stranded tape cassette, should the electrical system not work.

Abstract: A multilevel coded modulation scheme trellis encodes (in 112) a portion of the input data, and the resulting encoded stream is used (in 120) to identify a particular one of a predetermined number of subsets of symbols of a predetermined signal constellation. The remaining input data is coded using a Reed-Solomon (RS) code (in 114) whose output is used to select for transmission a particular symbol from the identified subset. In applications in which phase hits or other channel phenomena may cause the received signal points to be phase-rotated versions of the signal points that were transmitted, differential encoding is included in the overall coded modulation scheme. In different embodiments, the differential encoding/decoding and RS encoding/decoding are in different orders. In one such embodiment, overlapped multilevel codes are used to preserve the advantages afforded by taking a multilevel coding approach.
