Abstract: An interactive data retrieval system based on a personal computer (10) is provided which comprises a database (8) and a CD-ROM (131) which is arranged to select and display visual images (18) of product literature of interest to a user such as an architect for example. The database contains details of the illustrated products and the manufacturers of the products. A modem is provided to enable the user to communicate with the manufacturers of the displayed products and to receive updating information which is stored in the database. The display of a selected image may be aborted at any time by the user, and in order to facilitate comprehension of the image as quickly as possible whilst maximising the ultimate resolution of the image, the resolution of each displayed image is gradually increased during the display process (Fig. 5). This is achieved by initially displaying the image in the form of blocks of identical pixels. The true image pixels at each position in the blocks are then substituted so as to enhance the resolution of the image. An arrangement for displaying an image which has been scanned at a spatial resolution which is different from the nominal spatial resolution of the monitor is also described (Fig. 8). <IMAGE>

Title: Quick change sweep retainer
Inventor: HORVATH LEONARD
IPC: A01B35/22
Filed: 2000-09-28
Granted: 2003-10-09
Abstract: A novel solution for changing sweeps or knives on a cultivator or other soil working tool is the subject matter of the present invention. In today's farming world, where labor is at a premium and time is of the essence, a sole operator or farmer in preparing the fields for planting, summer fallow or other operations will sometimes need to change the sweeps or knives which till the ground several times for different crops or operations. The novel invention herein provides for an apparatus for quickly removing the sweeps (2) on cultivator shanks and replacing them with other soil openers of different width or configuration. A simple press button (7) releases the sweep (2) from an adapter bolted to a standard cultivator shank. The present invention eliminates the problem of sweeps falling off shanks due to lack of friction or difficulty in removing sweeps because of over friction.

Title: Anti-blocking brake control circuit - with servo to disengage transmission clutch to reduce wheel slip
IPC: B60T8/32
Filed: 1969-10-24
Abstract: The vehicle is fitted with wheel speed monitors which generate blocking signals when the control senses the onset of wheel blocking. This signal is fed to an AND logic circuit, together with a brake pedal operating signal. The two signals together operate a first control valve which modulates the brake force and a second control valve which operates a hydraulic servo cylinder to disengage the transmission clutch. This provides a simplified braking control, without interference from the transmission drag. The clutch is automatically re-engaged as soon as one of the signals is dropped i.e. if the blocking condition is lifted or if the brake pedal is released.

Title: Read signal time measurement - operates from reference time of storage core to own peak value using capacitor charge of constant current
IPC: G04F10/10
Filed: 1972-04-07
Abstract: Read signal time measurement of storage core from reference time instant to own peak value uses capacitor charge of constant current. A call-up pulse reaches one tenth of the peak value. The capacitor voltage is measured. The capacitor (8) is charged with current (IL) starting at the reference point. After reaching a value in the rise phase of the signal given as a fraction (kU) of the actual peak value, it is charged with half this current (IL). Charging is completed in the decay phase on reaching the same given value. A first comparator (1) determines the reference time instant and a second comparator (9) has the signal and fraction (kU) input.
