Abstract: A control system prevents recurrence of surge in a dynamic compressor. An anti-surge valve bypasses flow and is operated by the control system between a low limit and a full open position. The low limit is initially established to be zero, or a fully closed anti-surge valve. In the event of a compressor surge, the system detects a position of the anti-surge valve at the onset of surge, and stores a position related to the detected position as a new low limit. The stored position is preferably the detected position plus a small increment in order to prevent recurrence of the surge event.

Title: System for detecting failure of fuel pressure sensor
Inventor: HOSOGAI SEIICHI
IPC: F02M65/00
Filed: 1998-08-21
Granted: 2003-05-13
Abstract: A system for detecting failure of a fuel pressure sensor in an internal combustion engine, including an injector (32) provided at an intake system of the engine downstream of a throttle valve (38), a fuel supply passage (16) connected to a fuel supply source (fuel tank 12) for supplying fuel to the injector (32), pressure regulator (28) provided in the fuel supply passage (16) and operating to maintain a difference between the fuel pressure (PF2A) and the manifold absolute pressure at a constant value, a fuel pressure sensor (PF2 sensor 54) for detecting the fuel pressure (PF2A) in the fuel supply passage (16) downstream of the pressure regulator, and a manifold absolute pressure sensor (62) for detecting the manifold absolute pressure (PBA) downstream of the throttle valve (38). In the system, an index indicative of a ratio (.DELTA.PF2A) of the fuel pressure (PF2A) fluctuation relative to the manifold absolute pressure (PBA) fluctuation is compared to reference values (#PF2L, #PF2H) which define a range. Sensor failure is discriminated when the index (.DELTA.PF2A) is found to have remained outside of the range for a predetermined maximum time (tmP2STK). The system enables rapid and accurate detection of fuel pressure sensor abnormality (failure).

Abstract: A curtain edge tensioning assembly comprised primarily of a portion of t he curtain extending across the leading edge of the door. The curtain portion i s releasably coupled to a guide extension extending beyond the leading edge of  the door and engaging guide members to guide the door in a plane. The guide extensions also engage the guide members to restrict the guide extensions fr om moving toward the center of the curtain. The releasable coupling between the se horizontally restricted guide extensions and the resilient member places a tension on the curtain portion. The curtain portion is thus stretched across the doo r, and serves as a wind retention bottom bar or edge that also substantially confor ms to or deflects around an obstruction, thus preventing or minimizing damage to the door, the bottom bar and the obstruction.

Title: Method of transferring funds employing a three-node real-time electronic interlock
Inventor: THOMPSON JAMES W
IPC: G06Q20/38
Filed: 1997-10-21
Granted: 2007-08-07
Abstract: A method of transferring funds electronically, is per-formed by a group of N computers X(1) thru X(N) which are intercoupled to each other, and to another computer Y, by a communication channel. Each computer of the group includes multiple customer accounts, and the computer Y includes a net account for each computer of the group. To initiate the transfer of funds between two customer accounts, a customer sends an input request to one of computers X(i) of the group; and this in-put request specifies that funds F(z) be transferred in a particular direction between a customer account A(r) in computer X(i) and a customer account A(s) in another computer X(j) of the group.  For each input request that is received by computer X(i), a respective sequence of electronic control messages is sent on the communication channel among the computers X(i), X(j) and Y.  By this sequence of control messages, computer X(i) tests the status of customer account A(r); computer X(j) tests the status of customer account A(s); and computer Y tests the status of the net accounts for computers X(i) and X(j). If all of the tests by the computers X(i) and X(j) are satisfied, then those computers both authorize computer Y to transfer the funds F(z) between the net accounts for computers X(i) and X(j); and if all of the tests by computer Y are satisfied, then computer Y authorizes the computers X(i) and X(j) to transfer the funds F(z) between the customer accounts A(r) and A(s). This authorization from all three computers eliminates the need to reverse a transfer of funds; and consequently, the transferred funds are available for withdrawal immediately after the sequence of messages is com-pleted successfully.

Abstract: A communication scheme capable of guaranteeing the order of packets in the communication media exchange during the communication so as to be able to continue the communication smoothly even after the communication media exchange is disclosed. The source host transmits a first check packet through the first communication path and stops transmission of user data packets upon transmitting the first check packet, while the destination host transmits the first check packet through the second communication path upon receiving the first check packet through the first communication path while transmitting a second check packet through the first communication path, and stops transmission of user data packets upon transmitting the second check packet. Then, the source host starts transmission of user data packets through the second communication path upon receiving the first check packet through the second communication path, while the destination host starts transmission of user data packets through the second communication path upon receiving the second check packet through the second communication path.
