Abstract: It is provided a vehicle seat which comprises a seat part having a seat part element, a basis and a lever, rotatably connected with the seat part element and by means of which the seat part element is supported on the basis movably relative to the basis. It is provided that the lever has a section adapted to make contact with at least one component of the seat part by rotation of the lever with respect to the seat part element.

Abstract: An information transfer system includes a transmitter for transferring to a receiver an information signal having main data and sub data. The sub data includes coded text lines having a plurality of character codes. The receiver is provided with a character display unit for displaying characters corresponding with the character codes in the coded text lines. The number of character display positions is less than the number of character codes in the coded text line. The receiver is further provided with display control means for controlling the display of characters corresponding to the character codes included in the coded text line in dependence on serial control codes included in the coded text line. Parts of the text in the sub data may be shown on both a full multi-line display units for displaying full text lines and a 1-line display with a relative small number of digits.

Abstract: The application relates to an information transfer system, comprising a receiver (3) and a transmitter (1) for transferring an information signal to the receiver (3) via a transfer medium (2). The information signal comprises main data and sub data. The sub data comprises coded text lines having a plurality of character codes. The receiver is provided with a character display unit (10) for displaying characters corresponding with the character codes in the coded text lines. The number of character display positions is less than the number of character codes in the coded text line. The receiver is provided with display control means (9) for controlling the display of characters corresponding to the character codes included in the coded text line in dependence on serial control codes included in the coded text line.

Abstract: An information transfer system which transmits and receives an information signal including a coded text line, and displays characters, defined by character codes included in the coded text line, on a display unit having a display capacity which is less than the number of character codes included in the coded text line. The system includes a transmitter for producing and transmitting the information signal, a record carrier for storing the information signal, and a receiver for receiving the information signal and displaying the characters on the display unit. The information signal includes main data and sub data, which sub data includes the coded text line. The coded text line includes the character codes and control codes. The receiver includes the display unit and a display control unit for controlling display of the characters in accordance with the control codes.

Abstract: A system for transferring audio and/or video information via an information carrier, e.g., DAT, CD or CDV. In the R-W subcode channels of a CD-signal, textual or visual information about the audio and/or video signal is recorded. This information is divided into packets. Packets containing information of different categories are interleaved. After reading the information from information carrier, the packets of a selected category are separated from information read. This system of transferring additional information (in packets) allows the use of a separate packet category for each of a number of different languages, so that a user can select a language with which he or she is most familiar. In addition, menu information, including coded menu text lines and command codes, can be recorded in the R-W subcode channels as packets for interactive control of the read-out of the audio and/or video information or the control of other connected devices.

Abstract: A record carrier having addressable information included thereon, including at least one track having audio information and additional non-audio information (e.g., CD-I information), and apparatus for reading and/or reproducing certain of the information included in such a track. That track includes (a) a prepart having (i) the additional non-audio information and (ii) pause information (which results in reproduction of silence) and (b) an audio part having the audio information. The additional non-audio information is located before the pause information, and the prepart is located before the audio part. The apparatus can determine whether a track of a record carrier having audio information included therein also includes additional non-audio information and/or can prohibit reproduction of the additional non-audio information.

Abstract: An information signal representing audio and/or video information is read together with a series of first data packets representing textual subinformation relating thereto from a record carrier on which such signal and data packets have been recorded together. A series of second subinformation data packets having the same format as the first subinformation packets are interleaved therewith so as to form a subinformation signal, such signal being combined with the main information signal to form a transmission signal for transmission to a receiver, the second subinformation packets representing textual subinformation unrelated to the main information signal. A receiver for such transmitted signal reproduces the information in the main information signal together with selected portions of the textual subinformation represented by the data packets, such selection being effected by a user in accordance with menus represented by the data packets and displayed on a video display unit of the receiver.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of transmitting audio information in digital form, in which for the transmission of additional information in digital form data bits of said additional information replace one or a plurality of least significant bits in every n.sup.th code word of the audio information. For this purpose one or a plurality of least significant bits of the audio information in every n.sup.th code word is/are replaced in predetermined manner by additional information bits, the number of bits being replaced depending on the value of the instantaneous code word of the audio information. This dependence is such that for larger values of the audio information more bits are replaced than for smaller values.

Abstract: A method is proposed for eliminating or suppressing unwanted acoustic signals in audio programs to be edited for reproduction in studios, in which the perceived disrupted segments in the signal are determined with respect to their time positions, and the signal ends having signal flow/polarity changes adjacent to the disrupted signal location are bridged by a transfer function, preferably in the shape of a semi-sine. The semi-sine is stored in the form of sampling values in an addressable read-only memory and can be read therefrom.
