Abstract: A rotating, conductive, heat transfer device includes an outer race (14) having an axis (12), an inner race (16) coaxial with the outer race, and a plurality of bearing balls (18 to 38) disposed in a radial direction between the inner race and the outer race. The device (10) also includes a plurality of separators (40 to 58) disposed alternately in a peripheral direction between the bearing balls. A first track (62) and a second track (66) are supported by the inner race (16), for supporting the separators. The inner race has a first, fixed, inner ring portion (92) with a first bearing surface (96), and has a second, separable, inner ring portion (94) with a second bearing surface (98). The outer race (14) has a third bearing surface (100), disposed in a radial direction opposite to the first bearing surface (96) and also has a fourth bearing surface (102), disposed in a radial direction opposite to the second bearing surface (98). The first and second and third and fourth bearing surfaces are in contact with a spherical surface of each bearing ball. A plurality of coil springs (110 to 122) urge the second inner ring portion (92) in an axial direction toward the first inner ring portion (92), thereby applying first and second and third and fourth forces normal to the respective first and second and thrid and fourth bearing surfaces, for providing heat conduction from one race to the other race.

Abstract: A thrust reverser is disclosed having a thrust reverser door with an outer door panel pivotally attached to an inner door panel which, in turn, is pivotally attached to an annular housing. The door panels are pivotable about parallel, but displaced pivot axes such that the inner door panel undergoes a greater range of motion between its closed and open positions that does the outer door panel. This enables the inner door panel to be flush with the upstream and downstream portions of the inner housing surface to provide a smooth airflow through the air duct during the forward thrust mode, while at the same time enabling an efficient operation of the door during the reverse thrust mode.

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved paper feeding apparatus to feed paper sheets into a machine such as a collator or a printing machine. In the paper feeding apparatus wherein paper sheets stacked on the paper supply shelf (12) are picked up sequentially from the uppermost paper sheet (A), the invention is characterized in that it is provided with the paper supply shelf (12) guided for vertical movement, and urged upwardly by the resilient force of spring means (16), and stop means (30) engageable with the uppermost paper sheet (A) of the stack for defining the upper limit of the movement of the shelf (12), and means (47-50) for intermittently pushing down the paper supply shelf (12) for a predetermined stroke, and means (18,19) for interlocking the picking up operatin of the uppermost paper sheet (A) of the stack with the intermittently pushing down operation of the paper supply shelf, whereby when the uppermost paper sheet of the stack is picked up, the paper supply shelf is synchronously pushed down. Thus there is no need for providing a special power source for upward movement of the shelf, and a sensor and a cotrol section for controling the position of the shelf.

Abstract: A smoke and fire detection system (10) wherein a central controller (12) transmits data to remote 
transponders (24, 
26) on a voltage supply line (22) by pulse code modulation (PCM) of the supply voltage, and the transponders (24,26) 
communicate with the controller (12) by pulse width modulated (PWM) current pulses. A transmitter (30) 
supplies a nomi­
nal operating voltage and transmits a data word that includes plural data bits to the transponders (24, 26) over 
the line (22) 
by switching the voltage from the nominal operating voltage to a first voltage corresponding to a first logical 
level or a sec­
ond voltage corresponding to a second logical level. A decoder (84) in each transponder (24) detects the 
transition and de­
termines the logical level of each bit by measuring the transmitted voltage level immediately after detecting 
the transition. 
The transponder (24) returns data signals to the controller (12) having a duration based on the data to be returned.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un convertisseur numérique/analogique (CNA) du type à échelle résistive à Y bits monolithique ayant un amplificateur opérationnel d'inversion du gain d'unités sous la forme d'un tampon d'entrée sur le segment de l'échelle résistive du convertisseur numérique/analogique. La tension de référence est appliquée à l'amplificateur de tampon d'entrée. Le fonctionnement bipolaire optionnel est prévu en appliquant une tension de référence non inversée sur la sortie du segment d'échelle résistive du convertisseur numérique/analogique par l'intermédiaire d'une résistance étalonnée. Une annulation du courant de terre analogique est asurée par une échelle secondaire R-2R à X bits (où X Y), la tension de référence non inversée étant appliquée sur celle-ci. L'échelle binaire secondaire est commutée en parallèle avec les X bits supérieurs de l'échelle principale, fournissant ainsi approximativement la même quantité de courant que les X bits les plus significatifs de l'échelle principale résistive, mais avec un sens opposé. L'effet sur la sortie du convertisseur numérique/analogique de la résistance et du coefficient de température des commutateurs utilisés dans l'échelle R-2R et ailleurs dans le circuit est réduit au minimum en sélectionnant les commutateurs étalonnés de manière appopriée pour obtenir des résistances dont l'addition a pour effet de les annuler. (En particulier, un commutateur de transistor à effet de champ polarisé en permancence est prévu à l'entrée de l'amplificateur opérationnel d'inversion de gain d'unités). Etant donné que le convertisseur numérique/analogique est monolithique, les commutateurs ont approximativement des coefficients de températures égaux de sorte que l'effet des commutateurs est uniforme à toutes les températures.

Abstract: This phase locked loop (2) consists of a phase detector (4), a controller (6) and a controlled oscillator (8). According to the invention, a correction signal (ukorr or ukorr') corresponding to the phase detector output signal (uPD) of the locked-in phase locked loop (2) or corresponding to the input signal (u1), respectively, is generated, the phase angle and frequency of which is firmly referred to the fundamental oscillation of the locked-in phase locked loop (2) and which is continuously subtracted from the phase detector output signal (uPD) or, respectively, from the input signal (u1). Dynamic range and smoothing of the phase locked loop (2) can thus be adjusted independently of one another. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In hitherto customary methods, the steel surface sections have been provided with a corrosion-protection lacquer. This method had, under unfavourable conditions, e.g. with moist lightweight concrete, unsatisfactory results, especially with regard to the durability of the lacquer. To obtain permanent, satisfactory corrosion protection in steel surface sections of reinforced lightweight concrete elements, a shaped part (4) consisting of a sleeve which is closed on one side and is preferably made from a special steel, is pushed over the reinforcing-steel end (3) into the lightweight concrete element (5). As a result, a smooth-faced outer surface, on which the adhesion of a subsequent coat of paint, a coating (6) or the like is guaranteed, is obtained. <IMAGE>
