Abstract: A device for the measurement of the diameter of a body such as a cylinder, more particularly in the form of a workpiece on a roll grinding machine, having a contact wheel adapted to run on the surface of the body and a first rotational pickup (angle encoder) centrally coupled with or provided with a the contact wheel, and a second rotational pickup, which is adapted to indicate at least full revolutions of the body. The cylinder is coupled with the second rotational pickup (angle encoder), which like the first rotational pickup has high pulse rate for each measurement operation one respective start pulse and end pulse of one of these two pickups is utilized in order, with corresponding pulses of the other of the pickup, to calculate the diameter of the roll. A computer is provided which, by interpolation in each measurement operation of the registered pulses of at least one of the pickups, produces at least one intermediate pulse series with increments, which are respectively smaller than the fixed increments of the one pickup, of which one corresponds with such accuracy to the one end measurement pulse received approximately simultaneously of the one or normal pulse series of the other rotational pickup.

Abstract: The invention concerns a continuous mixing and homogenization unit for, in particular, mill products. The system ensures in particular that all the raw materials are mixed together simultaneously in a pre-mixing chamber (8) in order that the subsequent homogenization takes place continuously to the highest specifications. The raw-material  weighing device (4) used, as well as the worm conveyor (25) for removal of material from the weighing device, are designed as substantially tube-shaped units and together form a differential throughput-control system (6). Throughout the whole system, the inside wall in contact with the material is thus tubular and subject to a continuous cleaning action by virtue of the movement of the material. It is also possible to use several weighing devices (4) located symetrically round a collection point (17), for different components. The quality of mixing is extremely high.

Abstract: In a system in which a low-bit rate encoder and decoder carries matrixed audio signals, an adaptive rematrix rematrixes matrixed signals from an unmodified 4:2 matrix encoder to separate and isolate quiet components from loud ones, thereby avoiding the corruption of quiet signals with the low-bit-rate coding quantization noise of loud signals. The decoder is similarly equipped with a rematrix, which tracks the encoder rematrix and restores the signals to the form required by the unmodified 2:4 matrix decoder. The encoder adaptive rematrix selects the matrix output signals or the amplitude weighted sum and difference of the matrix output signals. The choice of whether the matrix output signals or the sum and difference of the matrix output signals are selected is based on a determination of which results in fewer undesirable artifacts when the output audio signals are recovered in the decoder. The adaptive rematrix may operate on frequency component representations of signals rather than the time-domain signals themselves.
