Abstract: A fractional-N synthesizer (803) employing at least a second order sigma-delta modulator (900) is disclosed. The most significant bits from the output accumulator (1011) of the sigma-delta modulator are used as the carry out control for the variable divisor of the loop divider (103). Modulation to the synthesizer is introduced as part of the digital number input to sigma-delta modulator and spurious signal output is reduced by selection of a large number as the denominator of the fractional portion of the loop divider divisor.

Abstract: A tubular hypodermic needle syringe has a tubular sheath that slides over the exterior of the syringe to cover the needle. The sheath is locked over the needle by a latch that engages the syringe and the sheath. The latch is held in its locking engagement by a sliding collar that normally engages the latch to lock the latch but which is manually slidable to disengage the latch so that the sheath can be manually moved to expose the needle. A spring urges the collar to a latch engaging position to automatically lock the sheath over the needle.

In order to make it possible to calculate other coordinates and angles of inclination, the method calls for at least one additional scanner mounted a certain distance from the first scanner. All the coordinates of the scanner locations are processed together, allowing for the distance separating the scanners.

Abstract: A protection switch with sudden switching on and off, a trip-free release and forced opening is described. A manually movable actuator (10) forms with a U-clip (50) a toggle lever. One leg (51) of the U-clip (50) forming the toggle joint axis is displaceably guided in the actuator (10) in a link (15) with a variable spacing from its rotation axis (11) and against the action of a spring (14) supported on the actuator (10). The other leg (52) of the U-clip (50) is guided in a fixed link (25) and in a ratchet lever (40). The ratchet lever (40) serves to transfer movement to a contact arrangement (21, 22) and cooperates with the release ratchet (60) of an overcurrent and/or undervoltage monitoring device. The fixed link (25) controls the engaging movement of the ratchet lever (40). In an intermediate position of the ratchet lever, it has a detent (26), which only releases said other leg (52) of the U-clip (50) following the further movement of the actuator (10) over and beyond the dead center position of the toggle lever (10, 50) and the tensioning of the spring (14) for sudden contact closure. The construction requires a minimum of parts, particularly if the spring (14) is directly shaped onto the actuator.

Abstract: An overhead conveyor for articles to be transported suspended from hangers, the conveyor having at least one delivery point (A) at which the hangers are to be automatically delivered from a conveyor line into a second line. A swingable slide rail is provided at the delivery point, the rail being adapted to be brought from an upper position of rest into a lower inclined operating position by the weight of a clothing hanger present on it. When the slide rail is in its inclined operating position, a clothing hanger resting on it slides down the slide rail toward a receiving rod in the second line. When the slide rail is in its position of rest, hangers which are not to be delivered are able to pass by the slide rail without being obstructed.

Abstract: A process is described for recycling dry aqueous fluid absorbent polymer fines into a process that includes a polymerization step for making the aqueous fluid absorbent polymer. The process requires recovering the dry polymer fines, mixing the fines with a polymerizable monomer solution for making the aqueous fluid absorbent polymer and polymerizing the mixture of fines and monomer to form the aqueous fluid absorbent polymer. In the process the fines are incorporated into the new polymer gel and becomes indistinguishable therefrom. The gel may then comminuted into a particulate dried and then separated into a portion having a desired minimum particle size in a fines portion having less than the desired size. The fines portion is then recycled up to about 30 percent by weight based on gel solids may be recycled for the preferred polyacrylate based aqueous fluid absorbent polymer.

Abstract: The articles (B) in an input flow are diverted onto a certain number of superposed sliding planes (5, 6, 7). This is achieved by means of one or more wheels, the peripheries of which have segments (10, 11, 12) which are spaced from the axis of rotation (X9) of the wheels (9) by distances corresponding to the distances of the sliding planes from the axis of rotation (X9). Each article is thus transferred towards a respective sliding plane (5, 6, 7) by a gradual movement. An alignment conveyor (16) located further downstream vertically aligns groups of articles on the superposed sliding planes (5, 6, 7) to define the piles. The piles are formed as a result of the articles (B) which are on the upper sliding planes (6, 7) falling onto the article below. The piles are preferably formed immediately before they are inserted in their packages (F). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A bicycle gear shifting system having rotatable front and rear handgrip shift actuators (408,408h,408c,410) operatively associated with control cables (415,417) for shifting respective front and rear derailleur mechanisms. A shifter rotator (412,412b,412c,413) drives a separate "jack spool" (436,436a,436b,436c) which in turn actuates the control cable (415,417). A cam on the jack spool (436,436a,436b,436c) is configured so as to substantially compensate for increasing force of the derailleur return spring during down-shifting. Compensation is provided in the shift actuator for various lost motions in the derailleur shifting mechanisms and control cable systems. The shift actuator (408,408b,408c,410) also provides overshift movement of the derailleur mechanisms in the down-shifting direction so as to overshift the bicycle chain a sufficient amount beyond the destination derailleur sprocket so that the chain will approach the destination sprocket in the same direction as it would in the up-shifting direction. The shift actuator (408,408b,408c,410) also provides equalization for the higher derailleur return spring force during down-shifting than during up-shifting, and allow fine-tuning to avoid chain rasp, which is particularly important for "cross-over" riding.

Abstract: A system for decoding a bar code symbol having a plurality of elements receives a signal representative of the symbol. The system searches the signal along a first search step (1228) to characterize the width of one of the elements (1206). The system then selects a second search step (1230) by projecting from the first search step onto a reference line (1226), where the reference line is not parallel to either the first or second search steps. The system then searches the signal along the second search step to characterize the width of another of the elements. A system for decoding a bar code symbol (1802) having at least three elements (1806, 1808, ... 1838) receives a signal representative of the symbol. The system characterizes a first set of two or more elements by searching the signal along a first search step (1840). The system also characterizes a second set of two or more elements by searching the signal along a second search step (1842), where the first set and the second set have an element in common and where the first and second search steps are not collinear. The system characterizes the common element using the first and second characterizations. <IMAGE>
