Abstract: In the hollow body (10) is a projecting basic body (26), to which the cutting bodies (21,22) extending in the draw direction are linked. The operating and rest positions of the cutting bodies are defined by adjustment of the hollow body in the draw direction, so that the cutting edges (24) of the cutting bodies in the operating position extend outwardly over the dia. of the hollow body. In the rest position they are drawn together over such a small dia. that they lie protected behind a stop (38) of the basic body. The section (30) of the basic body extending into the hollow body is formed as a tube section, in which a component (32) is arranged for the relative adjustment of the body in relation to the cutting bodies.

Abstract: Radiation from a subject (18) which is received by a scintillation crystal (12) interacts
with the scintillation crystal to produce a burst of scintillation light photons. The depth
distribution at which the interaction occurs varies in accordance with the energy of the
received radiation. Low-energy radiation tends to interact at a shallow depth relative to
a front face of the scintillation crystal and radiation with a high energy tends to interact
relatively deeply into the crystal. A moment processor (20) processes electronic
information from photomultiplier tubes (14) which view the scintillation crystal to
generate zero-th moment or energy information. first moment or coordinate information
and second moment or depth information. The event information is filtered (34, 62, 66,
82) in accordance with depth (26), e.g., sorted into acceptable/unacceptable information,
information corresponding to each of two or more energies of radiation, and the like.

Abstract: A computerised integrated insurance financing system.
Specifically, the computerised insurance system is capable
of handling an insurance transaction from the development
of an appropriate insurance contract with the client
through the management of the client's insurance
information during the life of the contract. Initially,
census data is received from a potential client in the
form of computer records representing a plurality of
individuals to be insured. After being reviewed and
standardised, the census data is used to perform a
pecuniary loss analysis The data from the pecuniary loss
analysis is used to generate insurance illustrations and
a financial analysis for the client. Once an appropriate
insurance contract is finalised, the system generates the
insurance contract, and related documentation, and the
census data is used to manage the client's insurance
information during the life of the contract.

Abstract: To provide an image pickup apparatus that
generates an image signal having a high resolution both
horizontally and vertically, the filter arrangement for
a color filter array used in the apparatus is so
designed that the colors of the filters in a cyclic
patterned unit of N rows × N columns (4 lines × 4
columns) differ from each other not only on the same
line but also in the same column. Thus, from all the
pixel blocks, pixel signals for each predetermined
pixel block unit can be obtained that are required for
the generation of a luminance signal and of color
signals.

Abstract: A glass and plastic complex designed to be used as a
mobile anti-burglary window in an automobile has
peripheral darkened strips (B), equipped with transparent
windows (7) in correspondence with the areas in which the
systems connecting to the movement devices are applied.
In these windows the transition areas show partially and
decreasingly darkened areas, to avoid any undesirable
accumulation of tension. This solution makes it possible
to employ a manufacturing process for the complex
involving simultaneous curving of the sheets of glass,
thus reducing production costs and at the same time
providing a product capable of passing the tests required
by car manufacturers.

Abstract: In a discharge lamp apparatus for a vehicle, it is determined that a grounded condition is present when a lamp voltage (VL) is less than a predetermined voltage and a lamp current (IL) is less than a predetermined current. Electric power supply to the lamp (2) is stopped temporarily in response to the determination of the grounded condition, and then the lighting operation is restarted again. If the grounded condition is determined again, the above operation is repeated. If this repetition continues for a predetermined period, the lighting operation is disabled continuously. In controlling the lamp (2), a voltage of a battery (1) is boosted by a transformer (41), which is turned on and off by a MOS transistor (42) so that electric power supplied to the lamp (2) is duty-controlled. An upper limit is set to the duty ratio, and the upper limit is increased as the lamp current decreases, so that the lighting characteristics of the lamp (2) is improved. A starter transformer (71) has a closed magnetic circuit core (701a), and is encased within a ballast casing (710), which is disposed under the lamp (2).

Abstract: Im Zylinderkopf einer Mehrzylinder-Brennkraftmaschine sind am Umfang jedes einem Zylinder zugeordneten Brennraumes zwischen benachbarten Schraubenpfeifen für die Zylinderkopfschrauben an dieser angeformte, in Quer- und Längsrichtung des Zylinderkopfes verlaufende Wände vorgesehen, die sich bis zum Zylinderkopfboden erstrecken. Um die Schraubenkräfte überwiegend auf die Längs- und Querwände übertragen zu können und eine Anpressung des Zylinderkopfes insbesondere über den Umfang jedes Brennraumes zu erreichen, endet die Tragfunktion der Schraubenpfeifen jeweils in einem Abstand vom Zylinderkopfboden. In dem sich hierdurch zwischen Schraubenpfeifenende und Zylinderboden an sich einstellenden Freiraum sind nicht tragende Trennwandbereiche vorgesehen, die lediglich die Funktion haben, die durch die Schraubenpfeifen geführten Zylinderkopfschrauben von angrenzenden Kühlwasserräumen zu trennen. Durch eine solche Abtrennung der Zylinderkopfschrauben von Kühlwasser können diese Schrauben nicht materialschädigend von dem Kühlwasser angegriffen werden. Andererseits bleibt die kraftübertragende Optimierung des Zylinderkopfes mit gekürzten Schraubenpfeifen vollständig erhalten. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Determination of the authenticity and integrity of various types of
documents such as lottery tickets is accomplished by using an electronic
verification machine to compare data contained in electronic circuits printed on
the document to document data printed on the document. The electronic circuits
are printed on the document in conductive or semiconductive ink using, for
example, the gravure printing process, and the presence and status of the circuits
can be used to verify or authenticate the document. Data can be represented in
the electronic circuits by the electrical signature of the circuit which is measured
by the electronic verification machine. In the case of lottery tickets, a ticket can
be validated by having the electronic verification machine determine which play
spots have been removed from the ticket and comparing data on the ticket with
the removed play spots to determine a play redemption value for the ticket.
Document verification or lottery ticket validation can also be accomplished by
transmitting signature data from the electronic circuits via the electronic
verification machine to a central computer for comparison with document data.
