  • Patent number: 5401907
    Abstract: According to the state of the art, it is known to link the soldering terminal plates (10) of loudspeakers by riveting them to the loudspeaker frame. It is also known to relieve the strain on loudspeaker connection cables, which extend between the soldering terminal plate (10) and the signal source. According to the state of the art, this is accomplished most of the time by pressing the connection cable with a so-called cable tie against the magnet system of the loudspeaker. It is furthermore known to clamp the connection cable with a bracket formed on the loudspeaker frame (12). To simplify the production, the invention equips the soldering terminal plate (10) with catch hooks (13), which securely attach the soldering terminal plate (10) to the loudspeaker frame (12), after linking it to the crosspiece (11). The strain-relief for the connection cable (22) is established in such a way, that a safety bolt (18) can be inserted into openings (16) in the soldering terminal plate (10).

  • Patent number: 5398288
    Abstract: Coaxial loudspeaker arrangements (10) are usually so configured, that the loudspeaker (12) located in the bellmouth (29) of the conical loudspeaker (11), is placed on the pole core (17) of the conical loudspeaker (11). However, the contact of the loudspeaker (11) has a disadvantage, with respect to automated manufacture, because either the connection cables (24) for loudspeaker (12) must be threaded through the pole core (17), or the connection cables (24) must be connected to the soldering joints in the diaphragm (15). It is also known to place the loudspeaker (12) into a preform, and to attach this preform to the edge of the loudspeaker frame (14) of the conical loudspeaker (11). The latter is very costly and detrimental to the acoustical effect. For that reason the invention has the task of indicating a coaxial loudspeaker arrangement (10), which is simplified with respect to automated manufacture, without impairing the acoustical effect.

  • Patent number: 5392127
    Abstract: A comb filter circuit (1) with a usual comb filter (3) contains a circuit to detect line-parallel color edges. To that effect, envelope curves (Sf2, Sf3) are created from the addition signal (Sb) and the subtraction signal (Sc) of the delayed and the undelayed color signal (Si) on the input side of envelope curve demodulators (23, 15), and a control signal (St) is created in a comparator circuit (38) by comparing the envelope curves, which adjusts the signal portions of the transmitted and delayed color signal on the input side, and transmits them with an adjustable electronic fader control (40) to the signal output (29) of the comb filter circuit. To ensure trouble-free control even under operating conditions, during which a large portion of cross talk signals are scanned, an additional comb filter (31) is connected to the signal path of the subtraction signal (Sc), which eliminates most of the cross talk portions on this signal path.

  • Patent number: 5378946
    Abstract: Two edge detectors (12, 13) at the input (10.1) and the output (10.2) of a delay line (10) of the edge detector arrangement (11) generate detection signals of identical shape at the detected signal edges of a signal traveling over the delay line. The delay time of the delay line is selected so that the two detection signals partly overlap in time. A subtraction arrangement (16) generates, from the two detection signals, a difference signal that contains, in the overlap region, a zero crossing that can be detected by a zero crossing detector (17). At the time of this zero crossing, the zero crossing detector generates the switching edge of an edge detection signal that controls, for example, a signal switcher (9).

  • Patent number: 5365408
    Abstract: An appliance chassis (1) contains attachment elements (52) for supporting, holding and affixing electrical and/or mechanical components (55), and, in the vicinity of certain attachment elements, has one attaching device (57) for inserting and affixing repair elements (56) assigned to the attachment elements, in the event of damage to the attachment elements. When inserted into the attaching device, the repair elements replace parts (14.1) of the holding device (14), which were lost because of damage to the attachment element.

  • Patent number: 5355412
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying secret data messages in a one-direction multipoint network. The identifying of the data messages is carried out with the help of identification used for the error check. With the help of the method according to the invention it can be identified to whom or to which group a message is potentially transmitted without increasing the number of bits in the information transmitted and without opening all the secret data messages.

  • Patent number: 5343528
    Abstract: A procedure and a decoder for decrypting the encryption of a coded video signal at a given point of time, in which the decoder (1) is tuned to a given receive channel for a given point of time using the channel and timer system of a video recorder (2) electrically in conjunction with the decoder by means of a video connection (VIDEO). The decoder (1) is tuned to a home channel while in a stand-by, whereby it receives data from the home channel. The mode of the input (IN1) of the video connection of the decoder is detected, and if a video signal is detected to approach from the video connection (IN1), said video signal from the video connection (IN1) is coupled to the decryption circuits (7) of the decoder. When the entry of the video signal from the video connection (IN1) ends, a signal from the home channel is coupled to the decryption circuits (7) of the decoder.

  • Patent number: 5323231
    Abstract: The invention concerns the measurement of the radiant density of electron beams from shadow mask tubes. According to a known process, the beam is displaced on the screen and pictures are taken of the light spot areas, as they are detected by the effect of apertures when the beam has been displaced. The pictures are then evaluated with respect to their luminance distribution. This process requires an extraordinary number of adjustments.

  • Patent number: 5243151
    Abstract: A secure joint between heavy magnet systems (11) and plastic loudspeaker frames (12) in conical loudspeakers (10) is conventionally implemented as an adhesive joint or as a shaved rivet joint. These types of joint are disadvantageous, since solvents are necessary when the components are adhesively bonded, and expensive plastics must be used for the shaved rivet joint. Residue-free separation of components joined in this manner is also difficult. Joints that create a secure joint on the basis of mechanically acting components alone are therefore indicated. According to one embodiment of the invention, the magnet system (11) is set into a plastic shroud (31) that has a convex base (32) and a crenelated rim region (36). The higher rim segments (37.2) are guided through openings (38) in the frame base (18) and expanded like rivet heads above the frame base (18), while the other rim segments (37.1) rest on the frame base (18).
