    Abstract: An apparatus for detecting anomalies of the skin, more particularly melanomae, includes a light source for illuminating a two-dimensionally extending examination region of the skin, successively, with ultraviolet light range and with visible light. A camera records a fluorescence picture of the examination region having signal values F(x,y) at its picture points x,y in response to the illumination with ultraviolet light and a reference picture having signal values R(x,y) at its picture points x,y in response to the illumination with visible light. A memory stores the signal values of at least one of the fluorescence picture and said reference picture, and a processor responsive to the memory produces an output picture having respective signal values A(x,y) at its picture points x,y which are formed from respective quotients F(x,y)/R(x,y) of the signal values of the fluorescence and reference pictures at the same picture points. Various filters are provided positioned or positionable between the light source and the examination region or in front of the camera.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of taking measurements along an optical transmission path by means of an optical sensor. The optical sensor includes an optical converter whose optical attenuation properties can be influenced according to the value to be measured and through which a first beam portion of a high-frequency amplitude-modulated optical transmission beam is passed. A second beam portion of this transmission beam is conveyed via a delay element. The second beam portion is applied together with the first beam portion outputted by the optical converter, via the transmission path as a receive beam to the receiver arrangement. In this way the modulation change produced by the sensor is processed and evaluated as an information about the measure value. Measuring a value at the transmitter end is possible with any optical transmission path of an undefined length, without recalibration of the receiver arrangement, because the optical transmitter beam is additionally subjected to low-frequency modulation. An original modulation factor m.sub.o of the transmission beam is preset as the ratio of the high-frequency (I.sub.HF) to the low-frequency (I.sub.NF) modulation amplitude and is fed the receiver arrangement 3. The received sensor-influenced modulation factor of the receive beam is measured by the receive arrangement 3. The received-to-original modulation signal ratio is evaluated as information about the measuring value (M).

    Abstract: An apparatus for driving a plurality of motors at different variable speeds. The apparatus includes a rectifier for supplying direct current power to a dc bus circuit. A plurality of inverters are connected to the dc bus circuit and each inverter drives a respective motor. Each inverter is controlled by an individual controller connected thereto for controlling the frequency of the output of the inverter to thereby control the speed of the associated motor. The inverters are preferably mounted on a common heat sink to reduce electrical and mechanical complexity. The apparatus permits the rectifier and the dc bus circuit to be sized to handle a maximum rating of less than the sum total of maximum loads of each of the motors. The dc bus circuit also serves to distribute energy generated by a slowing motor, for example, to other motors driven from the bus circuit. A chopper resistor may be included and switched across the dc bus circuit to provide braking to the motors.

    Abstract: During the transmission of measurement values of a sensor from a transmitter circuit to a receiver circuit, for example via an optical fibre, use has been made of a device which must be activated by the receiver circuit before a measurement value can be transmitted. This is done in order to achieve potential freedom. The novel device for transmitting the sensor measurement values aims to operate faster and independently of the receiver circuit. The sensor (1) is activated by control pulses generated by a pulse generator circuit (3) and applies to the pulse generator circuit, during the occurrence of a control pulse, a measurement pulse which is dependent on the measurement value circuit. The repetition frequency and/or the width of the control pulse then depends on the amplitude value of the measurement pulses.

    Abstract: Apparatus for measurement of the stress birefringence of an optical sensor that is influenced by a quantity to be measured. An optical emitting device sends light of two adjacent wavelengths .lambda..sub.1 and .lambda..sub.2 through an emitting light guide and via a polariser and a retarder plate to the sensor. An analyser conducts mutually parallel polarization components of the light emerging from the sensor on a common path to a receiving and evaluating device which derives from the measured-value-dependent intensities of such polarization components information concerning the magnitude of the quantity to be measured. The thickness of the retarder plate is dimensioned to provide a path length w of the light through the retarder plate such that the two light components .lambda..sub.1 and .lambda..sub.2 that leave the analyzer are influenced in mutually opposite senses by the measured quantity via the sensor, so that they do not need to be separated by optical filters and combined again by a coupler.

    Abstract: The yarn tension at each of a plurality of yarn processing stations is continuously monitored, while continuously determining the mean value of the monitored tension at each station, and while also continuously determining the differential between the monitored value and the mean value. Also, an alarm signal is generated whenever the mean value leaves a predetermined tolerance range, and whenever the differential value leaves a second predetermined tolerance range. An alarm signal may serve to actuate a visual error indicator, or to shut down the associated processing station.
