Title: Method and apparatus for receiving printed products from a revolvingly driven bucket wheel of a printing machine
Inventor: HANSCH EGON
IPC: B65H29/40
Filed: 1988-10-20
Granted: 1990-11-15
Abstract: An outfeed conveyor is arranged beneath a rotary bucket wheel driven to rotate in a predetermined rotational direction. A belt conveyor is arranged downstream of, and a product entrainment arrangement is arranged upstream of, the outfeed conveyor. An endless revolving belt is guided about belt rolls of the outfeed conveyor and upon which come to bear the printed products in inbricated formation. Entrainment elements of the product entrainment arrangement completely stuff the printed products into the pockets of the bucket wheel. Upon ejection of the printed products out of the bucket wheel they are fixedly clamped at their trailing edges between a support element and extensions or cantilever arms of the entrainment elements until the entrainment elements have passed the support element and thus an intersection location between the entrainment elements and the support element. The resiliently arranged extensions of the entrainment elements are pivoted by the support element in a predetermined direction, such as clockwise, so that the printed products are cyclically released. There is thus formed an inbricated formation of the printed products within which all prnited products are aligned and there can be maintained a substantially constant mutual spacing between the individual printed products.

Title: Speech synthesis
Inventor: SILVERMAN KIM ERNEST ALEXANDER
IPC: G10L13/08
Filed: 1988-11-18
Granted: 1991-08-01
Abstract: Coded text is converted to phonetic data to drive a synthesis filter. Accent data are also obtained to derive a pitch contour for a variable pitch excitation source. Recognition of the beginning of a paragraph causes a pitch contour of higher pitch than the pitch at a later part of the paragraph. The initial pitch falls following each subgroup into which phrases are divided. In another aspect of the invention, accents within a phrase are assigned pitch values which are high for the first accent, less high for the last; and the remainder alternate between higher and lower lesser values.
