Abstract: A possible type of fraud consists in adding an impulse generator of slightly higher frequency to the system such that the taximeter sees the correct pulse train (A) and the higher frequency pulse train (B) superimposed as an irregular pulse train (C) at the higher frequency. The fraud may be detected by causing the microprocessor in the taximeter or tachygraph to sample a large number of incoming impulses and to establish averages of the high and low levels and also a narrow range of tolerances. If fraud of the type anticipated has occurred ther will be a very large percentage of the samples outside the tolerance range and the meter is automatically disconnected.

Abstract: A screwdriver is disclosed, comprising a removable depth stop which selectably either, when equipped with the depth stop, allows noiseless shutoff or, with the depth stop removed, allows torque-dependent shutoff, without any chattering occurring when the machine continues to run. To this end, an adjustable torque-dependent release clutch is combined with an entrainment clutch of known type, which is additionally preceded by a disconnect clutch, a locking means being provided in order to hold a throwout ring, which forms one of the two elements of the disconnect clutch, in a predetermined position under load. In this way, noiseless operation is ensured after release, both when working with the depth stop and in the case of torque-dependent shutoff, with the depth stop removed.
