Abstract: A control-signal input device for computer game machines for generating game control signals based on the analysis results of biological signals, such as brain waves, in which a biological signal extracted by a biological-signal extracting means is analyzed. Signal components of each of a plurality of frequency components in the biological signal are obtained based on the above analysis results. The state of the biological signal is obtained by subjecting the signal components of each of the frequency components to a predetermined processing. A predetermined game control signal is generated in accordance with the state of the biological signal, and transmitted to a game machine via a changeover device.

Abstract: A signalling pre-processor for receiving signalling from a line card of a telephone line. The pre-processor converting analog signalling into digital form and integrating the digital signal to remove noise spikes which would otherwise appear as false traffic. The system further includes bit packing for receiving digital signalling in the form of 8-bit bytes and forming 32 bit words, each 32 bit word containing the data from a single bit address of 32 of the 8-bit bytes. These 32-bit words are packed into a memory array until all bits of a given order for a time sample have been gathered. Signal processing is then performed on the 32 bit word to update a state machine for determining the signalling state of each telephone line.

Abstract: A process and a device for the simultaneous tensioning and loosening of eccentric tension rods (19) of gas turbine rotors assembled from several turbine disks (23). An improved hydraulic tensioning device is used to provide an optimal circular and flat impact quality, and the quiet running of the gas turbine rotor is improved overall at high speeds. Further, it is guaranteed that the same forces act on each tension rod (19), the elongation of each tension rod (19) can be measured as accurately as possible, and a minimization of the setting force losses is achieved. A solid cylindrical ring (1) forms a piston chamber (11) in each case, whereby the piston chambers (11) are connected together with cross holes and are acted on by the hydraulic medium. The catch pin (3), through which a measuring rod (5) is guided, which makes contact with the head of the tension rod (19) by a pressure spring (18), is inserted through a boring in the piston (2).

Abstract: A tilting device for a direct current arc furnace and a process are disclosed for completely emptying the furnace while the furnace is operated with a continuous scrap supply through a lateral opening in the furnace vessel and removal bottoms. The scrap chute should remain in the opening of the furnace during the loading, melting, deslagging and tapping operations; it should be swiveled away only during the emptying of the furnace. The disclosed tilting device has a cam on the rolling cradle, so that the rolling mid-point remains at the zero position in a tilting range from .+-.5.degree. to .+-.15.degree., and when the furnace is completely emptied it moves to another position in a parallel direction to the bottom tapping opening. The position of the bottom tap opening changes only insignificantly in order to protect the parts of the bottom electrode located outside the vessel of the furnace from heat radiated by steel in the casting ladle.
