Abstract: The invention provides a level indicator for liquid storage vessels by making the contents of the vessel readily visible when the liquid in the vessel has fallen below a certain level. This object is achieved according to the invention by the fact that the container wall (1') has a prism (4) situated in the region of the inspection cover (2 or 10). At the prism, the light (7) entering via the openings (5) in the inspection cover is reflected or absorbed by the liquid (9) in the vessel (11). The design according to the invention of the level indicator provides a simple level indication which manages without additional mechanical or electrical devices. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A shutter opening and closing device includes movable components such as a lever (36), an actuating pin (41) and a spring (42) all disposed in a guide channel (35c) of a cartridge holder (35) into which a disk cartridge is inserted. The device of this construction is low in profile and compact in size and makes it possible to reduce the overall size of a disk drive in which the device is incorporated. With the combination of a straight guide groove (39) and an oblique guide groove (40) formed in the cartridge holder (35), the actuating pin (41) is movable along a substantially straight path. This enables the user to insert the disk cartridge into the cartridge holder (35) smoothly with a small muscular effort.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for the detection and treatment of arrhythmias using a processor having a neural network (21) with a hierarchical arrangement including a first lower level (21A) for classifying individual waveforms, a second higher level (21B) for diagnosing detected arrhythmias and a third higher level (21C) for the application of therapy in response to a diagnosed arrhythmia. The neural network (21) may be a back propogation neural network or an associative memory type neural network. The arrhythmias detected may be at least one of bradycardia, tachycardia and fibrillation. The apparatus may include a cardioverting/defibrillating packmaker (15). In general, the apparatus acquires physiological signals representative of heart activity in a patient. A neural network (21) receives the physiological signals and determines if any arrhythmia is present, and if present, selects therapy to be applied to the heart. A therapy generator then applies the therapy selected by the neural network (21). The physioligical signals may be processed or unprocessed ECG signal, signals indicative of the properties of the blood, and blood flow signals or signals representative of ventricular wall impedance or ventricular volume.

Abstract: A method for designing and operating a multi-processor computer system, in which data required for performing a task is determined by a first processor (12) and then downloaded to a second processor (16) that will execute the task. The data is associated with regions whose uses are expected by the second processor (16) but whose actual contents are determined by the first processor (12). The method accommodates mutually exclusive access by both processors to memory of the second processor (17), while providing all data required for the task in a single read operation.

Abstract: 5 n7 A SONET/DS-N desynchronizer and method for receiving an incoming stream of SONET (Synchronous Optical NETwork) data, having a controller for controlling either a direct digital synthesis circuit that provides a desynchronized clock for smoothly adapting the rate at which data is retrieved from a data buffer to the rate at which the incoming SONET data is stored in the data buffer. To minimize jitter and buffer spills (i.e., data overruns or underruns), the frequency and phase of the desynchronized clock is constantly varied to match the variations of the data rate of incoming SONET data. The DDS circuit generates the desynchronized clock, which has a center frequency equal to a predetermined frequency of a reference clock, whose phase is advanced or retarded in accordance with the magnitude of a tuning word supplied by a controller, which implements either a linear, non-linear, or fuzzy logic control algorithm. The controller periodically updates the tuning word in response to status variables to adjust the frequency of the clock output of the DDS circuit. In an alternative embodiment, a digital voltage controlled oscillator is used in place of the DDS circuit.

Abstract: A bus coupler (BA) for connecting a device (G) to a data bus (10) contains a microprocessor which carries out a bus dialogue with the data bus and a device dialogue with the device (G). The bus dialogue is carried out with priority, the device dialogue being interrupted whenever a bus dialogue is taking place. In the program sequence of the device dialogue carried out with lower priority, a set signal is in each case generated which starts a timer (12). If the period of the timer (12) elapses before a new set pulse has been generated, a fault signal (SS) is generated. This makes it possible to detect hardware and software errors in the bus coupler (BA), both during bus dialogue and during device dialogue. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 7  A motion compensation predicting coding apparatus includes a motion detector for comparing pixel data in an image signal with pixel data of the previous image signal to generate a motion vector. The motion vector is indicative of the displacement differences between the image signal and the previous image signal. The image signal may be organized into blocks of pixel data for a single field or for multiple fields when motion detection is performed on the image signal by the motion detector. A subtracter generates a prediction compensation error signal by subtracting the pixel data in the previous image signal from the pixel data of the image signal. A coder receives the prediction compensation error signal and generates an appropriate coded output. The apparatus may also include an adaptive blocking mechanism for receiving the prediction compensation error signal and organizing the data in the signal into blocks into one of several fashions as dictated by the motion vector.

Abstract: A gas refractometer is disclosed for use with a measurement interferometer and which in its simplest form (Fig 1) comprises an auxiliary interferometer which uses the same light source as the measurement interferometer and which provides two light paths therethrough of different lengths. The gas refractometer operates as a tracking interferometer by providing a signal indicative of changes in the refractive index of the atmosphere in which the measurement interferometer is operating. At the same time the gas refractometer is made to act as an absolute refractometer by arranging that the maximum change in the difference between the two path lengths within the refractometer which will be produced for the full range of refractive index variation under which measurements are likely to be made will be less than one wavelength of the light used. 
     Various embodiments of the refractometer are described including variants in which two auxiliary interferometers are used, and the use of the refractometer output to correct the measurement interferometer reading or to control the wavelength of the light used is also described.

In other words, the first input signal is blocked and is not transmitted to the main body, so that the state of the main body at the time when the power source of the display unit is turned ON is correctly displayed on the display unit.

Abstract: An output driver circuit has a circuitry portion (70) which is used to generate a Drive-Hi control signal in response to an Output Enable, an optional Precondition signal, and a Data Input signal. A circuit portion (75) ensures that the Drive-Hi control signal is maintained at a voltage which is substantially equal to Vdd when the Output Enable is deactivated. Circuit portion (80) selectively controls the Data Output by driving Vdd onto the Data Output in response to the Drive-Hi control signal being activated. A circuit portion (100) functions to selectively drive the Data Output to a logic zero (ground potential) when a Drive-Lo signal is asserted. Circuit portions (90 and 95) generate the Drive-Lo signal in response to the Output Enable, the optional Precondition signal, and the Data Input signal. In general, the output driver circuit allows an integrated circuit powered at a first voltage to interface to another integrated circuit which is powered at a higher second voltage without loss of performance, without excessive leakage currents, without crossover current, and without increasing gate oxide stresses.
