A rotary actuator, suitable for use with rotors having flow-varying blading, for effecting adjustment of the blading, including two relatively-rotatable and co-axially-disposed main actuator components. Each of the components carries a respective abutment means, one of which is axially-displaceable with respect to its component between an inoperative position and an operative position, and both of which are so disposed with respect to their components that during operation of the actuator with s...

A miniature inductor suitable for integrated circuits comprises a semiconductor substrate having a coplanar strip line and a plurality of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors, wherein the plurality of MIM capacitors are connected between the transmission lines of the coplanar strip line in parallel, and the coplanar strip line connected with the MIM capacitors further comprises a crossed planar strip line structure or a shifted planar strip line structure. The present invention reduces the occ...

The invention relates to compounds of the general formula (I), wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.8', R.sub.9, W, a, b and n have the significances given in claim 1, and optionally the enantiomers thereof.

A rotary actuator includes two relatively-rotatable main actuator components, abutment means being carried by the first component and displaceable axially with respect thereto, and further abutment means being carried by the second component. Holding means is operable for holding the displaceable abutment means out of engagement with respect to the further abutment means whereby relative rotational movement between the components occurs when one of them moves in either one of its two directions ...

The invention provides a surface mounting type electronic circuit unit that is suitable for miniaturization and is suitable for simple output adjustment. Circuit elements including capacitors, resistors, and inductance elements and a conducting pattern connected to the circuit elements are formed on an alumina substrate by means of thin film forming technique, and a diode D1 and a semiconductor chip of a transistor are fixed to a connection land of the conducting pattern by means of wire bonding...

A transaction method, a service center, and a device for carrying out the transaction method. In the transaction method object picture data relating to a transaction object, for example a product or a service, are made visible to a user, for instance by projecting image signals corresponding to the object picture data directly on the retina of the user. Eye features of the user are determined while the object picture data, made visible, are viewed by him/her, for example by the light being captu...

Triglyceride fat which comprises HUU triglycerides and at least 18 wt. % of HOH and HLH triglycerides, while the ratio HOH:HLH is in the range 30/70 to 85/15, which fat is characterized in that the fat contains at least 20 wt. % of HUU and 8 30 wt. % of SOO triglycerides, where O denotes the residue of oleic acid, S of stearic acid, L of linoleic acid, U of oleic acid or linoleic acid and H denotes the residue of a saturated fatty acid with more than 15 carbon atoms with the proviso that at leas...

In a connector for connecting a coaxial cable having a center conductor and an outer conductor, a relay contact is connected between the outer conductor and a ground contact held by a housing. A signal contact is held by the housing and adapted to be connected to the center conductor. The relay contact includes a soldering portion and a connected portion coupled to the soldering portion. The soldering portion has a generally L-shaped section to define a recessed part and is soldered to the outer...

Substantially linear, segmented polyester amides are described which contain aromatic residues in the "hard" segments but which still possess sufficiently low melt properties to be injection moldable. The polyester amides are obtained by reacting a carboxylic acid-terminated prepolymer (derived by reacting an excess of a dicarboxylic acid with a polymeric diol of molecular weight 400 to 4000) with a stoichiometric amount of methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate) or toluene diisocyanate or mixtures of t...

The rotor of a disc brake apparatus for bicycles comprises a spider that flatwise overlies the outer face of one spoke flange on a wheel hub and is secured by spokes that have their hook portions extending through it and that spoke flange. A flat annular disc has radially inwardly projecting tabs that are secured to the spider and hold the disc in axially spaced relation to the spokes. A U-shaped caliper body straddles an edge portion of the disc. On a shorter leg the body has a fixed brake pad;...
