    摘要: A power monitoring and correction to a desired power level of a laser or group of lasers utilizes two photodetectors which are employed to accurately determine the amount of output power from the front end or “customer” end of a laser or a plurality of such lasers. During power detection, which may be accomplished intermittently or continuously, the laser is modulated with a tone of low frequency modulation. One photodetector at the rear of the laser is employed to detect the DC value of the frequency tone, i.e., a value or number representative of the AC peak-to-peak swing, amplitude or modulation depth of the tone. Also, the rear photodetector may be employed to determine the optical modulation index (OMI). In either case, these values may be employed in a closed loop feedback system to adjust or otherwise calibrate the value of the low tone frequency relative to the total desired bias current applied to the laser. A front photodetector is employed to receive a portion of the total output of the laser, or of each laser, and the average output power of the laser, or of each laser, is determined from already knowing the optical modulation index (OMI) via the rear photodetector. Thus, by measuring and/or calibrating the laser OMI with the use of a rear photodetector, the average output power from the front end output can be unambiguously determined from detection of the AC peak-to-peak swing or amplitude of the low frequency tone received via the front photodetector.

    摘要: An apparatus for monitoring whether a cable is coupled to a port of a computer network. A free-running oscillator is initially set to a base frequency when a cable is not coupled to the port. If a cable is subsequently coupled to that port, the inherent capacitance of that cable loads one of the nodes associated with the oscillator. The result of this capacitance is that the oscillator is now running at a lower frequency. A frequency counter and threshold comparator are used to detect whether the oscillator frequency has fallen below a pre-determined frequency threshold. If the oscillator frequency has not fallen below this threshold, the port is not included in the network path. However, if the oscillator frequency has fallen below the threshold, this indicates that a cable has been coupled to the port. Consequently, the trunk port is inserted into the computer network's path.

    摘要: A gas fired hot water heater includes a housing enclosing an internal chamber divided by a vertical partition into two compartments, the partition having a top edge spaced below the top of the chamber. One of the compartments has a gas burner in the lower portion with an adjacent combustion air intake vent. A first heat exchanger is located in the same compartment above the gas burner but below the top edge of the partition, and a second heat exchanger is located in the other compartment at substantially the same horizontal level as the first. The two heat exchangers are connected in series. Condensate collection means is provided in the other compartment below the second heat exchanger to collect condensate forming on the second heat exchanger and to duct the condensate out of the housing. A flue pipe ducts flue gases from the housing, and a blower is provided to blow the flue gases through the flue pipe. In a particular development, a bimetallic, helically twisted baffle is provided within the straight portions of the central heat exchanger tube, so that temperature swings will cause the bimetallic baffle to expand and contract, thus automatically scouring the internal surface of the tubes, and reducing deposits.

    摘要: In the manufacture of a glass fiber reinforced plastic part a chopped glass fiber reinforced, thermosetting resin is placed in a mold cavity. A continuous filament glass fiber cylinder impregnated with the same resin used in the above formulation without chopped glass fiber is placed in the stud support areas of the mold. The mold is then closed and the resin subjected to heat and pressure to cause it to completely fill the mold cavity and cure. The cured part has continuous filament glass fiber reinforcements in the stud support areas.
