Abstract: The alignment system includes a digital control circuit located within the video monitor to precisely set and maintain each of the monitor display characteristics. The values maintained by this control circuit can be input by a person, or set automatically by a computer controlled display alignment system. The system of the present invention uses a single camera and a color analyzer to make all the measurements necessary to automatically align and calibrate a video monitor. The measurements are then used to make the adjustments, via the digital control circuit, necessary for alignment and/or calibration. A calibration computer coupled with a video coprocessor subsystem accomplish all adjustments to the monitor automatically, without the need for human intervention.

Abstract: Un mât télescopique comporte plusieurs sections. Celles (11-16) du haut se déploient et se rétractent selon une séquence contrôlée prédéterminée et chacune, si elle est complètement déployée, se verrouille complètement et automatiquement avec la section inférieure. Le système de verrouillage amélioré comporte un couple projection-encoche de verrouillage, un élément de ce couple étant situé à la surface externe de chacune des sections supérieures du mât et l'autre élément, aux extrémités supérieures de chaque section intermédiaire. Toutes les sections intermédiaires et inférieures présentent un tenon de verrouillage (33). Ce couple coopère et empêche tout mouvement vertical relatif entre une section supérieure pleinement déployée et la section inférieure suivante. On utilise un écrou (22) de déplacement amélioré avec une vis de déplacement axial (17) pour déployer et rétracter les sections de mât. Il est placé près d'une embase cannelée (27) à ressort de tension, dans un logement (23) d'écrou, et absorbe les chocs initiaux lors de son engagement avec la vis de déplacement. Un dispositif (94) permettant de tendre, déployer et enrouler le câble apporte une amélioration dans la manipulation de câbles (93) tendus entre le sol et des équipements (91) placés au sommet du mât télescopique.

Title: Fireproof glazing
Inventor: GRUENHAGE HOLGER DIPL-ING
IPC: E06B5/16
Filed: 1993-06-09
Granted: 1997-12-03
Abstract: Given a fireproof glazing, there is provided, at least on the side (9), of the pane (1), directed towards the fire and in the region of the rebate, a screening device (10) which can be activated and moved, in the event of a fire, independently of a pressing action on the pane. When a predetermined temperature is exceeded, the screening device (10) is shifted such that it entirely covers the edge region (24), of the pane (1), which is to be screened. The fact that screening and exertion of pressure on the pane are carried out separately offers the advantage that, when a predetermined temperature is exceeded, the screening device immediately fulfils its full protective action for the edge region and consequently keeps the pane edge cool for a relatively long period of time. The screening device (10) may have a slide (12) which is moved, in the event of a fire, by a pressure medium (11) which expands under the action of heat. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé adaptatif de détection des ratés d'allumage dans un moteur à explosion à allumage par bougie dans practiquement toutes les conditions de fonctionnement d'un moteur, y compris la marche au ralenti. Ce procédé consiste à normaliser un signal différentiel de la durée d'un temps moteur indépendant de l'accélération du moteur et indépendant du régime du moteur pour un cylindre particulier du moteur. Ce signal est obtenu à partir de périodes de temps moteur consécutif d'un cycle de moteur au moyen d'un paramètre d'étalonnage stocké en mémoire pour le cylindre particulier. Cette première étape permet d'obtenir un signal différentiel de la durée d'un temps moteur normalisé pour le cylindre particulier. Ce procédé consiste également à comparer le signal différentiel de durée du temps moteur normalisé à un signal de raté d'allumage minimal utilisable stocké en mémoire afin de détecter la survenance de ratés d'allumage dans le cylindre. Ce signal de raté d'allumage minimum est déterminé de préférence par support à un paramètre de fonctionnement du moteur. Ledit procédé consiste enfin à modifier de manière adaptative le paramètre de fonctionnement stocké dans la mémoire selon les résultats de la comparaison.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un appareil de coextrusion d'un corps polymère multicouche qui introduit des couches mitoyennes protectrices dans le corps, protégeant les couches de l'instabilité et de la dissociation lors de la formation et de la multiplication des couches. Le procédé consiste à produire au moins des premier (11) et second (12) courants de matière thermoplastique extrudable plastifiée par la chaleur qui sont combinés pour former un courant composite de premiers sous-courants et de seconds sous-courants entrecroisés. Un troisième courant (24) de matière thermoplastique plastifiée à la chaleur est alimenté aux surfaces extérieures du courant composite pour former des couches mitoyennes protectrices adjacentes aux parois de l'appareil de coextrusion par lesquelles passent les courants polymères plastifiés à la chaleur. On évite l'instabilité et la dissociation des couches en utilisant certaines conditions de fabrication, instabilité et dissociation qui pourraient affecter autrement les propriétés optiques et/ou mécaniques des articles formés.

The comonomer may be per-substituted; alternatively, use may be made of two or more comonomers of different substitutions. More particularly, the invention relates to NLO polyesters, polycarbonates and polyurethanes made up of D(pi)A group-containing dihydroxy compounds and deuterated or halogenated dicarboxyl compounds, bischloroformates or diisocyanates known in themselves. The polymers are used as waveguides in, for instance, electro-optical devices such as an optical switch.
