Patent EP-1077353-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TAKAGI NOBORU
IPC: F16K31/06
Filed: 2000-04-07
Abstract: A switch valve is provided in a refrigerant circuit.
The switch valve includes a first valve mechanism (50), a
second valve mechanism (80), and a single valve housing (51)
incorporating the first and second valve mechanisms (50,
80). The first valve mechanism (50) is an electromagnetic
valve. The first valve mechanism (50) selectively connects
and disconnects an outlet of a compressor (10) with an inlet
of a condenser (11) in accordance with an electric current
supply. The second valve mechanism (80) is a differential
pressure valve. The second valve mechanism (80) selectively
connects and disconnects the outlet of the compressor (10)
with an inlet of an evaporator (14) in accordance with a
difference between the pressure at the outlet of the
compressor (10) and the pressure at the inlet of the
condenser (11). In this manner, the single switch valve,
which includes the first and second valve mechanisms (50,
80) incorporated in the same valve housing (51), switches
the refrigerant circuit between a path for a cooling
operation and a path for a warming operation. This
structure simplifies the configuration of the refrigerant
circuit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a packing method and an apparatus
implementing said method in which a material is packed into a container by
an air tapping process in which the air-pressure state of the space
comprising a container and a space part connected with said container,
which space being loaded with the material, is switched several times from a
low air-pressure state to a high air-pressure state alternately, while keeping
said low at-pressure state equal to or higher than the atmospheric pressure
existing outside said space, thereby preventing the material from getting
blown up by the inflow of the atmospheric air outside the container and
packing a material into said container homogeneously.

Abstract: A motor vehicle assembly is disclosed in which a bulkhead assembly 2 is secured to a
vehicle body 20 having an aperture 26. The bulkhead assembly 2 includes a channel 6 about
a periphery thereof. A bead 50 of an adhesive or sealant is provided in the channel 6. The
vehicle body comprises a flange 38 to at least one edge of the aperture. The bulkhead
assembly is secured to the body by engagement of the flange 38 within the bead 50 of
adhesive or sealant within the channel 6. This has the advantage that since the bead of
adhesive or sealant is located within the channel 6, there is a reduced risk of the sealant or
adhesive being wiped or smeared during assembly. Also, the bulkhead assembly 2 is readily
located relative to the body 20 by the interaction of the flange and the channel.

Abstract: A method for controlling the starting, stopping and operation of an AC motor
(16) is provided. Each winding of the AC motor (16) is interconnected to an AC
source (18) by a thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) and a bypass contactor (50, 52, 54) for
providing voltage and current to the AC motor (16). The method includes the steps of
sequentially firing a pair of tyristor switches (42, 44, 46) to bring the AC motor (16)
to full operating speed. Once at operating speed, the bypass contactors (50, 52, 54)
are closed. Upon detection of a voltage drop across a thyristor switch (42, 44, 46), the
thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) is fired immediately to transfer motor current from the
bypass contactor (50, 52, 54) to the thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) in order to maintain
voltage and current to the AC motor (16).

Abstract: A ratchet wrench has a drive head (28) and a handle (24), the latter defining an
elongate body. The body of the wrench is formed with a series of through cavities
(56) which are sized in steps for releasably holding a series of correspondingly sized
sockets (60). The sockets are retained in place frictionally by means of elastomeric
inserts (68) carried by and positioned to project inwardly of exposed annular side
walls which define the cavities. Conveniently, the stored sockets may be forcibly
expelled from the cavities in either of two opposed axial directions. For ready visual
identification, markings (64) are provided on the body of the wrench indicating the
specific size of each socket-receiving cavity. The described features of the ratchet
wrench also enable one quickly to verify the socket size, and allow socket placement
over a fastener without requiring that the socket itself be first removed from the tool
handle.
