Abstract: For canceling ghost components disturbing a received picture signal waveform in the television transmission such as the television broadcast, ghost components of a reference pulse signal inserted at a central portion of a horizontal scanning period in a vertical blanking period of a picture signal is detected and then the received picture signal is processed such as those ghost components of the inserted reference signal are canceled by each other. In this signal processing, an auxiliary reference signal, the waveform and/or the level of which differ from those of the principal reference signal, the latter being occasionally almost zero, is inserted in a horizontal scanning period delayed from the principal reference signal by a repetition period after the lapse of which regular controlling signals such as synchronizing signals and color bursts having just the same waveform, level and phase reappear. In the differential signal waveform between received picture signals respectively neighboring both of reference signals, regular controlling signals are canceled by each other, while ghost components consisting of remaining waveforms except the difference between both of reference signals   only are left, so as to facilitate the accurate detection of ghost components even exceedingly delayed over one half of a horizontal scanning period.

Abstract: In the compact transmission of a hand-held reciprocating power saw (10), conversion of rotary to reciprocating motion is through a speed reducing bevel gear set (34) (crown wheel (38;38′;38˝;38a) and pinion (36)) closely coupled by an eccentric drive pin (48) in the crown wheel to a reciprocating saw blade carrier bar (20;120). A guide or bearing plate (52) extending between the crown wheel and the saw blade carrier bar does double duty, guiding and supporting the saw blade carrier bar on one side and, on its opposite side, providing a thrust surface for the crown wheel. The crown wheel engages the guide plate through a thrust ring (68;90;68˝;68a) about equal in diameter to the diameter of the crown wheel. In this way, the shallow crown wheel may be positioned, supported and stabilised entirely by two simple bearings - a large diameter plain thrust bearing (68;90;68˝;68a) of essentially no radial capacity and a short radial bearing (42) subject to virtually no bending or thrust loads. In an alternative embodiment the guide plate (52) is eliminated and the reciprocating carrier bar (120b) receives the thrust load of the crown wheel.

Abstract: A laser system employs mirror sets (30, 31; 32, 33; 34, 35; 36, 37, 38, 39; 40, 41; 42, 43) having substantially astigmatism-free focusing power sufficient to maintain a desired laser beam diameter, to compensate for thermally-induced distributed lensing. The system is a high power gas laser system having a folded optical cavity with the mirror sets acting as a periodic intracavity refocusing means to compensate for distributed negative thermal lensing in the hot plasma that comprises the active medium, and thus maintain a substantially constant beam diameter throughout the optical cavity. Each corner mirror set includes at least one curved mirror and at least one other mirror at each corner of the folded optical cavity. In one example, each corner mirror set is a spherical mirror (31) and cylindrical mirror (30). In another example, each corner mirror set comprises three nirrors (including three spherical mirrors, or two spherical mirrors and a planar mirror). In another preferred example, the focusing mirror sets are not included within the optical cavity of a high power laser, but instead, one or more such focusing mirror sets are included within the output beam delivery optical components of a high power laser. For example, one of the focusing mirror sets may replace a conventional lens to direct the output beam of a high power laser system along a desired path and maintain a desired beam diameter.

Abstract: To increase the performance of a pipelined processor executing various classes of instructions, the classes of instructions are executed by respective functional units(164-167) which are independently controlled and operated in parallel. The classes of instructions include integer instructions (164) floating point instructions (165), multiply instructions (166), and divide instructions (161). The integer unit, which also performs shift operations, is controlled by the microcode execution unit (26) to handle the wide variety of integer and shift operations included in a complex, variable-length instruction set. The other functional units need only accept a control command to initiate the operation to be performed by the functional unit. The retiring of the results of the instructions need not be controlled by the microcode execution unit, but instead is delegated to a separate retire unit (173) that services a result queue (172). When the microcode execution unit determines that a new operation is required, an entry is inserted into the result queue. The entry includes all the information needed by the retire unit to retire the result once the result is available from the respective functional unit. The retire unit services the result queue by reading a tag in the entry at the head of the queue to determine the functional unit that is to provide the result. Once the result is available and the destination specified by the entry is also available, the result is retired in accordance with the entry, and the entry is removed from the queue.

Abstract: A beam (1) of e.g. an electron microscope is focussed on a specimen (4) and secondary electrons (5) generated thereby are detected and analysed (6,7,8,9) to generate an output signal. That output signal is investigated for one magnification or scanning time of the beam (1) over a range of focusses to determine the optimum output value for that one magnification. This investigation is repeated for other magnification to generate a series of optimum output values. The optimum of that series is then determined, and the electron microscope may then be operated for that specimen (4) at the focus corresponding to the optimum of the series of optimum values. In this way, automatic focussing is provided which permits the optimum focus to be determined in dependence on the specmen (4).

Abstract: An ultraviolet radiation projector of this invention includes a focusing optical member arranged between an exposure surface of an ultraviolet sensitive material and a panel surface of a CRT for emitting an ultraviolet beam to expose the exposure surface which is kept separated from the focusing system, thereby preventing contact between the exposure surface and any element of the focusing system. An optical image forming apparatus of this invention can form a high-precision two-dimensional image for an electronic circuit pattern by exposing the exposure surface with a pattern corresponding to a desired electronic circuit pattern using the ultraviolet radiation projector as a light source. In addition, sheet-like resins cured by the exposure with the ultraviolet beam using the ultraviolet radiation projector as a light source are sequentially stacked to form a desired high-precision three-dimensional image.

Abstract: In a thermal imaging system for passive imaging of infra-red rays, a converging imaging cone is incident on a detector 2. To shield the detector from rays outside the imaging cone which would cause noise, a thin plate 10 is provided and, since the detector is cooled but the plate is not and therefore generates infrared radiation, the plate is formed with corner cube reflectors to reflect radiation emanating from the detector back onto itself. As compared with the conventional "cold shield" reflector which has a spherical reflecting surface, the use of a plate formed with corner cube reflectors makes the imaging system thinner in the axial direction in the region of the detector.

Abstract: A cell transfer apparatus and method using a varia­ble rate codec wherein a sequence number of each cell is determined by adding a weight corresponding to an encoding time of information. In a transmitting side (101, 102, 103, 104, 105) each of encoded pieces of information is cellulat­ed to a predetermined length cell for each information having a length of integer times a predetermined unit length of information. A sequence number of a next cell is determined by adding as a weight the number of pieces of information having a unit length included in the last cell to a sequence number of a last cell, and is sent as being added to each cell. In a receiving side (105, 106, 107) reproduction timing numbers comprising serial numbers are sequentially generated at timings synchronous with the unit length of the pieces of information and compared with the sequence number added to each cell. When the both coincide, the information of that cell is decoded.
