Abstract: A tomographic x-ray imaging system comprises a large plurality of parallel data acquisition channels which integrate and digitize signals from an array of x-ray detectors. Calibration pulses are injected into each data acquisition channel to permit measurement of drift in electronic gain and dc offset parameters. Separate x-ray detectors continuously monitor the intensity of the x-ray source.The measured values for channel gains, dc offsets, and source intensity are fed to a digital computer where they are automatically combined with x-ray transmission data to compensate for system drift and extend the period between calibration measurements.

Abstract: A transducer for sensing the magnitude of a parameter, such as mechanical displacement/motion, pressure, temperature, electrical voltage, current and the like, uses a multimode optical waveguide fiber. At least one portion of the fiber is subjected to bending in an amount changing with a change in the sensed parameter magnitude. The resulting microbending losses in the fiber vary the attenuation of light energy between an optical source and an optical detector, response to variations in the sensed parameter magnitude. The variations of the detector output may be monotonically continuous, or may be processed to assume one of a pair of levels for "on-off" switching purposes.

Abstract: A time delay modulator is disclosed in which the instantaneous time base of a carrier signal is varied in accordance with a modulating signal. In one embodiment, modulation is achieved through the use of charge transfer delay lines and variable frequency clocks in which a carrier wave signal is applied to the input of the delay line and the carrier wave signal is propagated through the delay line at a rate determined by the output frequency of an oscillator which deviates from a nominal frequency by an amount proportionate to the magnitude of the modulating signal. In another embodiment, an analog-to-digital converter, a shift register and a digital-to-analog converter in serial configuration are each controlled by a voltage controlled oscillator. The carrier wave signal is connected to the input of the analog-to-digital converter and samples are taken in accordance with a clock input. Parallel digital output signals are applied to an N x M bit shift register, the output of which is applied to the digital-to-analog converter having a serial output. A modulating signal is applied to the voltage controlled oscillator which provides an output deviating from a nominal frequency by an amount proportional to the magnitude of the modulating signal.

Abstract: An apparatus for handling and orienting elastic, thin-walled, tubular members having a closed end and an open end, such as finger cots, such that all tubular members are delivered in the same orientation, the apparatus having a retrieval conduit, a delivery conduit angularly joined to the retrieval conduit, a reversing chamber extending linearly forward from the retrieval conduit and across the opening to the delivery conduit, and suction means to draw the tubular members through the retrieval and delivery conduits. A tubular member traveling in the forward orientation with the closed end forward will be drawn directly into the delivery conduit, while a tubular member traveling in the reverse orientation with the open end forward will first pass the opening to the delivery conduit and strike the barrier end wall of the reversing chamber, and then be drawn into the delivery conduit with the closed end forward.

Abstract: An automatic failed roll condom detection and removal apparatus wherein failed roll condoms are rapidly removed from a testing mandrel such that shut down of the testing and handling equipment is not required. Detection means detect the presence of a failed roll condom on a testing mandrel as it returns from the testing and removal station and ejection means remove the failed roll condom from the mandrel. The ejection means has a series of rotating brushes having relatively stiff bristles, the brushes being mounted on a reciprocating carriage in ascending manner in the mandrel return travel direction. When a failed roll condom is detected, the shuttle carriage return rate is slowed and the rotating brushes are brought into contact with the failed roll mandrel, each brush in succession pushing or rolling the condom higher on the mandrel until the final brush ejects the condom. After the failed roll condom is removed, the brush carriage retracts and the shuttle carriage is brought back up to normal operating speed.
