Abstract: The logic device comprises a programmable array responsive to to signals applied to the external terminals of the device for generating a number of logic signals. A number of programmable output cells each receive logic signals which are stored and generate a signal in return at predetermined input/output ports. A number of storage cells each store predetermined logic signals and generate a signal in return. A counter stores a count value which is selectably incremented or decremented and generates counting signals indicative of the value. A device receives and counts signals and logic signals for storing the count value in a last-in, first-out stack for removing the last-in contents of the stack. The counter also receives signals generated by the stack.

Abstract: A magnetometer comprises a transparent spherical photocell (1) filled with natural helium 4He. A laser (2) of the LNA (lanthanum-neodymium aluminate) type excites the photocell. An oscillator (3) generates a soft discharge inside the photocell (1). The electronic magnetic resonance frequency of helium atoms in the excited metastable state is determined on the basis of the light (FT) transmitted by the photocell, under excitation by a radio electric field, and the magnetic induction is thereby found.

Title: Electric switchgear
IPC: H01H71/10
Filed: 1988-08-11
Granted: 1993-10-06
Abstract: Electrical switchgear for fitment to installation circuit breakers.   Known switchgears have one or more contact points on which a switch mechanism acts, the switch mechanism interacting with an adjacent circuit breaker. Differential operation of the contact points is thus not possible. To operate the switch poles 35, 45, a switch mechanism 36, 46 is provided in each case, which switch mechanisms are independent of one another and in each case have a coupling element which engages with the adjacent circuit breaker. In this case, each switch mechanism 36, 46 operates a switch pole 35, 45 which in each case is designed as a two-way switch. The arrangement permits the optional connection of the switch poles as opening or closing contacts and allows them to be operated differentially.

Granted: 1994-01-26
Abstract: A phase-locked loop is formed by a series circuit of a counter, a register, an arithmetic unit, a low-pass filter, a PI-filter, and a voltage-controlled oscillator. The digital, internal clock signals generated by the oscillator are counted in a counter and are transferred into the register and stored as a current counter reading at points in time determined by time interval clock signals. For example, the time interval clock signals are acquired from reference clock signals by means of a divider and exhibit a lower frequency than the internal clock signals. A drive signal in digital form is determined in the arithmetic unit on the basis of the current counter reading, on the counter reading of the preceding evaluation interval, and on a rated value. This drive signal proceeds via a digital low-pass filter, PI-filter, and D/A converter to the control input of the oscillator, and controls the latter such that the internal clock signals coincide in phase with the reference clock signals.

The resultant EEEPs are useful in food formulations and for cooking as they have good mouth feel and characteristics similar to vegetable oils and fats. Being relatively non-absorbable, non-digestible, and non-toxic they may be substituted for natural or processed oils and fats, but have low caloric value.

Abstract: Male and female book binding strips are packaged in cassettes (31) and the respective cassettes are stacked in male and female hopper stations (66, 116). Punched sheets are deposited in a staging station. The components of the book are then assembled in an assembly station (121). Thus the stack of sheets is fed onto one jaw and one male strip is fed onto that jaw while a female strip is fed onto the opposite jaw superimposed above the first-mentioned jaw. The two jaws (123, 136) are moved toward each other until the stack is loosely held therebetween. Thereupon the jaws are pivoted to vertical position, the stack resting on a base plate attached to one jaw. The stack is jogged so that the holes in the sheets are aligned with each other and with the holes in the female strip. The male strip is pushed inward toward the stack, the studs fitting through the holes in the sheets and through the female strip. The assembled stack and strips are then moved into a bind station (201) where the strips are compressed together, excess stud length cut off and rivet heads formed on the severed ends of the studs.

Abstract: Self-supporting bodies are produced by reactive infiltration of a parent metal (10) into boron carbide (12) typically resulting in a composite comprising a boron-containing compound and metal. The mass to be infiltrated may contain one or more inert fillers admixed with the boron carbide (12), or at least one carbon donor material, to produce a composite by reactive infiltration, which composite comprises a matrix of metal and boron-containing compound embedding the filler. The relative amounts of reactants and process conditions may be altered or controlled to yield a body containing varying volume percents of ceramic, metal and/or porosity. The mass to be infiltrated can be contained within a refractory vessel (16) having a venting means included therein.

Abstract: The holding device for semiconductor slices (wafers) orients and secures the slice during transportation to the processing position but exposes the surface to be processed and secures the position of the wafer with the aid of a ring, which remains in the processing position, shortly before the processing position is reached. Under these conditions, the slice surface can be processed completely or with minimum shadowing and at the same time the transportation mechanism can be effectively protected from the processing, for example coating or etching. All the parts continuously exposed to the processing can easily be replaced. If the slice remains stuck in the processing station, it is pulled off by the positive-acting transportation safety device.
