Abstract: An improved electric propulsion motor (10) for marine vehicles. The motor (10) has an axial gap design with a disk-shaped rotor (16) and two disk-shaped stators (12,14). Within the large, open diameter of the motor (10) a sound isolation coupling (32) is disposed between two annular plates (28,30) that connect the rotor (16) to the propeller shaft (26). Circumferential thrust bearings (74) counter and distribute electrical and mechanical forces in the motor to maintain the position of the rotor (16) relative to the stators (12,14). A journal bearing (76) supports the rotor. Noise reduction is greatly enhanced by the implementation of staggered stators (12,14), skewed stator slots, skewed field poles and a current control system that compensates for torque pertubations that are a repeatable function of shaft angle.

Abstract: A single-pass color printer provides registration by controlling the velocity of the photoreceptor (44;Fig. 1) as a plurality of color separation latent images are superimposed on an area of the photoreceptor. The velocity of the photoreceptor is controlled by averaged error values  v   ij . The averaged error values  v     ij    are determined periodically for the same photoreceptor or when an old photoreceptor is replaced with a new photoreceptor or when a user depresses a button in a display to recalibrate the averaged error values  v   ij  after noticing degradation of print quality. The averaged error values are based upon at least one of time deviations (T ij ), average transit times (T l *) and average velocities (V l *) of areas of the photoreceptor on which the latent images are formed. The calibration of the velocity variations is equivalent to a calibration of the belt thickness uniformity. Further, the method of determining or calibrating the averaged error values  v   ij  can be used to verify that the method was properly done.

Abstract: Modifications to existing frame relay communication protocols are described which permit both voice and data packets to be handled in an integrated frame relay system. A Voice Frame Identifier bit is defined in the address field of a frame. When an intermediate node detects a voice packet, a CRC operation is performed using only the frame header ; that is, voice information is excluded from the computation. The frame is flagged for priority processing in the node. When the intermediate node detects a data packet, the CRC operation uses both the header and the data fields.

Abstract: The thermoplastic extruder's (2) orifice (4) is controlled by the wall thickness program (3). The preform (1) is blown to a hollow body (7) in the mould (6), removed, and any adherent fragments are taken out. The time t1st to extrude a given length, is measured; difference at  DELTA G from the desired value Gsoll; this is stored, paired with DELTA t values. The pairs control ns and sa in a following cycle. It measures the time to grow the preform, even before it is blown to shape. This is largely controlled by the extrusion gap and extruder screw speed, for given material properties. The weight of the vessel, the material distribution in the hollow blown body, and the wall thickness are controlled. The process in this case produces a particularly marked stretching of the preform, a rectangular vessel being depicted. The parameters are particularly quickly stabilised. Any weight variation is fed back to the next cycle. All the key process parameters are inter-related to the programmed wall thickness. Because the parameters are inter-related, methods relying on individual adjustment and measuring the effects in isolation are obviated. Further process details are provided, and examples of the necessary corrective action, in terms of screw speed alteration, required by measured extrusion times, are tabulated for a practical case. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A code-excited linear predictive coder or decoder for a speech signal has an adaptive codebook (105), a stochastic codebook (106), and a pulse codebook (107). A constant excitation signal (ec) is obtained by choosing between a stochastic excitation signal (es) selected from the stochastic codebook and an impulsive excitation signal (ep) selected from the pulse codebook. The constant excitation signal is filtered to produce a varied excitation signal more closely resembling the original speech signal. The varied excitation signal is combined with an adaptive excitation signal (ea) selected from the adaptive codebook to produce a final excitation signal (e) which is filtered to generate a synthesized speech signal. The final excitation signal (e) is also used to update the adaptive codebook.

Abstract: A master electric charge retaining medium 2 having electrostatic charge information recorded thereon is disposed face-to-face with a reproductive electric charge retaining medium 3, and a voltage is applied between the respective electrodes of the two electric charge retaining media to induce an electric discharge, thereby inversely reproducing the electrostatic charge information on the reproductive electric charge retaining medium, as shown in Fig. 2(b). It is possible to effect the reproduction any number of times while preventing the lowering in the contrast of the master electric charge retaining medium by making the electrostatic capacity of the master electric charge retaining medium adequately larger than the electrostatic capacity of the reproductive electric charge retaining medium. In addition, a master electric charge retaining medium 2 having an insulating layer with a relatively high softening point and a reproductive electric charge retaining medium 4 having a thermosoftening resin layer 4a are disposed face-to-face with each other to induce electric charge on the thermosoftening resin layer in correspondence to the electrostatic charge image on the master electric charge retaining medium 2, and the thermosoftening resin layer is softened by heating to form a dimple pattern thereon, thereby enabling transfer development to be effected any number of times without leaking the electrostatic charge.

Abstract: The retransmission of signaling messages that data terminals (e.g., modems) might exchange prior to exchanging user data is controlled by arranging a data terminal that receives multiple copies of the same signaling message so that it saves only the first copy thereof, but transmits a response to the sending terminal following receipt of each such copy. The sending terminal terminates its transmission of the signaling message upon receipt of a response from the receiving terminal. The inventive procedure is especially advantageous for controlling the retransmission of signaling messages during a n-way handshake between two terminals.
