Abstract:
A light-emitting cavity device comprising: a pair of mirrors spaced apart to define a resonant cavity; a luminescent layer located in the cavity; and a control layer located in the cavity and controllable to adjust the resonance wavelength of the cavity and thereby spectrally redistribute the energy emitted by the luminescent layer.
Abstract:
A coding head for applying magnetic codes onto magnetizable layers of scales, graduations, angle encoders, transport belts and the like has a magnetic pole (10) about which a coil (12) is wound, the saturation induction of the magnetic pole being selected in dependence upon the coercive field strength of the magnetizable layer (18). In this case, the saturation induction (in Tesla) has a specified relationship to the coercive field strength (in kOe).
Abstract:
In a magnetic field sensor comprising at least one magnetic-field-dependent resistor disposed in the vicinity of an outer side of a housing that is open on at least one side and further comprising a permanent magnet that is adjacent to said magnetic-field-dependent resistor, the magnetic-field-dependent resistor(s) (6), arranged on a support (4), are in a contacting relationship with the inside of a detector side wall (2) of the housing (1), and the thickness (x) of said detector side wall (2) is, at least in the area of the active surface of the magnetic-field-dependent resistors (6), smaller than that of the other housing walls (17, 18, 19) and/or the housing base (20). A rugged, high-resolution magnetic field sensor is thus obtained.
Abstract:
A light and weather resistance testing apparatus (9) is provided with a sensor (1) located in the plane of the testing samples (14). The sensor (1) uses a transmitter (4) for wireless transmission of signals representing radiation received to an antenna (3) disposed on the wall (8) of the apparatus housing. The sensor (1) has multiple receptor cells (6) for various spectral ranges. The sensor (1) is powered by solar cells (7) located on the sensor housing. A plotter and display unit (13) can be connected to the apparatus for read-out of irradiance and irradiation. The wireless transmission of data from sensors to the display unit permits continuous measurement during rotation of samples and sensor.
Abstract:
To measure contact resistance between a probe and a terminal sample, and to insure gentle engagement of the probe on the sample, a scale beam is used which has an adjustable engagement weight, and which is lowered under control of a cam disk with an interposed magnetic system in which two magnets of equal polarity are placed adjacent each other so that, due to the repelling force of the two magnets, jolt-free, vibration-free engagement is possible, providing in effect a magnetic buffer. Preferably, the probe is a test wheel which, upon lowering from a raised position, can be disengaged from the drive motor which, when the test probe is off the sample terminal, rotates the wheel so that a fresh wheel surface is available for subsequent measurement. Engagement force can be controlled by suitable positioning of a counter weight, for example by a servo motor.
Abstract:
An object extends into a passage and defines a clearance space with the inner wall of the passage. A hardenable, foamable synthetic resin in flowable state is admitted into the clearance space. Upon hardening and foaming of the synthetic resin, the object is sealingly secured in the passage by the synthetic resin. In a preferred application, the passage is one provided in a coal mine and the object is a hose line for the purpose of suppressing dust. The synthetic resin is advantageously polyurethane including a polyhydroxyl component which contains a polyetherglycol having a hydroxyl number of 300 to 350 and a polyetherglycol having a hydroxyl number of 450 to 500. The polyetherglycol components respectively constitute 80 to 90 parts and 10 to 20 parts of the polyhydroxyl component. The polyhydroxyl component preferably includes a filler in an amount such that the weight of the latter at least equals that of the polyhydroxyl component.
Abstract:
A device including at least one magnetoresistor for sensing the position of a ferromagnetic part which moves past the magnetoresistor. The magnetoresistor is influenced by a permanent magnet which is mounted near the magnetoresistor in a housing which contains the magnetoresistor. The device is useful as a position, direction, or speed sensor.
Abstract:
A magnetic field detector has a sensor arrangement which is disposed in a housing and includes a plurality of stripe-magnetic-field-dependent resistors arranged on the underside of a dielectric support. A permanent magnet is oriented perpendicularly to the upper side of the support and to the magnetic-field-dependent resistors. In one embodiment, the sensor arrangement is located approximately in the center of the housing and a plurality of electrical contact means are attached on both sides of the permanent magnet and adjacent thereto within the housing. In another embodiment, the sensor arrangement is located laterally from the center of the housing and the electrical contact means are attached within the housing and adjacent to only one side of the magnet. The electrical contact means have internal terminals which are connected by small wire conductors to the magnetic-field-dependent resistors, and external terminals are formed into solder contacts or plug contacts which are adapted to engage a mating connector.
Abstract:
A driving method and system for controlling the operating characteristics of a tubular-bag machine, in which a tubular bag is closed off at the bottom end so as to be fillable with packing material through a fill pipe. An intermittently moved thin foil tube is for this purpose guided vertically between transversely arranged, heated sealing jaws, the opening and closing of which being camcontrolled. The foil movement is adjusted to the opening and closing movement. The drive for effecting the foil movement and the drive for effecting the sealing, separating and welding device are driven by separate motors controlled independently from one another, and are adjusted to one another such that each angular-speed stage can be adjusted independently from the preceding or following stage to the demands of the work cycle at any time during the work cycle. The magnitude of the angular speed can be adjusted as well.
Abstract:
Apparatus for drilling geological formations includes a hydraulic motor through which a high pressure fluid is delivered to plural nozzles which define material cutting jets. A portion of the fluid supplied to the motor is diverted and employed to generate a torque which causes the rotation of the rotor of the motor, which is mechanically connected to the drill head which includes the cutting jet defining nozzles, about the motor stator. The apparatus is connected to a source of pressurized fluid and thrust nozzles may be employed to position of the motor and associated drill during the boring operation.
