Inventor: ZILLMER MICHAEL
IPC: F02D41/12
Filed: 2000-08-30
Abstract: A method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle with a butterfly valve, where the butterfly valve is opened and a fuel supply is cut off when the vehicle is in an overrun phase, the method including the steps of determining a first value of a position of the butterfly valve during the overrun phase as a function of a vehicle speed and an engine rpm value at a beginning of the overrun phase, adjusting the butterfly valve to the first value during the overrun phase; and adjusting the butterfly valve to a second value, which is calculated as a function of the vehicle speed and the engine rpm's, instead of to a value based on a gas pedal position for a certain predetermined time after an end of the overrun phase.

Title: Authenticatable 3-dimensional object and method for protecting and identifying objects produced by a foundery technique
Inventor: CAMDESSUS MARIE-ODILE
IPC: B22D19/00
Filed: 2000-12-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for protecting and identifying a 3-dimensional object such as a work of art, an object of value or an industrial component, produced by a foundery technique, casting or similar. According to said method, marker elements (50) are added to the core material (30) of the object when it is produced, said marker elements having different characteristics to the core material (30) of the object so that they have a different reaction to that of the core material (30) of the object to non-destructive agents for examining the internal structure of the object. Said marker elements are metallic (50) and consist of balls with a higher melting point than the metallic core material (30) of the object. The marker elements are introduced into the liquid core material (30) of the object randomly, in solid form, when the object is being poured, without premixing. After the object has been produced, it can be identified by locating the marker elements in the inner structure of the object using a technique of analysis by x-ray tomography. The inventive method provides a means of authenticating an object which is characterized by a reference plane and at least one cutting plane parallel to said reference plane, comprising the image of at least one marker element (50).

Abstract: A driving force control system for a four-wheel drive
vehicle is disclosed which enables the vehicle to smoothly
start on a low-µ road surface, and is capable to
distributing just required amounts of driving forces to
auxiliary drive wheels depending on an actual accelerating
condition of the vehicle, thereby improving the response
and fuel economy of the vehicle. The four-wheel drive
vehicle includes front wheels as main drive wheels, and rear
wheels as auxiliary drive wheels. The driving force
control system controls engagement forces of
electromagnetic clutches to thereby control the driving
forces (torques) distributed to the rear wheels. The
2/4WD · ECU of the driving force control system calculates
a filtered vehicle acceleration XGF1F of the vehicle 2 based
on a drive torque TD, and then calculates a basic VATC torque
value VATC based on the calculated filtered vehicle
acceleration XGF1F, for use in calculation of the final
desired VATC torque value TOBJM of torque to be distributed
to the rear wheels.

Abstract: A textile multi-needle flatbed knitting machine has two opposed beds of needles which operate in esp. a split-stitch process to form a split mesh extending over one or more needles. Using the split-stitch the foundation mesh (40) is looped around the free needle (5) in the facing bed (3), followed by the formation of a split mesh (10) as the start-loop with the needle (4) which previously bore the foundation mesh (40). This process is followed by movement of the thread guide (60) past the needle (4) with the starting mesh (10). The foundation mesh (40) transferred to the needle bed is looped around the needle on the same side within the same needle bed. The needle is then expelled with the foundation mesh into the knitted position.

base preferably N-benzylidene primary amino acid amide is used, with the primary
amino acid amide preferably being derived from an aliphatic primary amino acid
amide, for example tertiary-leucine amide. As organic solvent use is preferably
made of an aromatic hydrocarbon, a cyclic, aliphatic hydrocarbon or a ether, in

Abstract: An objective of the invention is to improve the
strength and stability of mechanical bonding between a
connection electrode of an electronic component and a
patterned conductor of a mount substrate, through simple
configuration and simple steps without adversely affecting
the operation of the electronic component. 
     In a method of manufacturing an electronic device, the
electronic component (13) and the mount substrate (11) are
disposed such that one of surfaces (13a) of the electronic
component (13) faces toward one of surfaces (11a) of the
mount substrate (11), and a connection electrode (14) of the
electronic component (13) is electrically connected and
mechanically bond to a patterned conductor (12) of the mount
substrate (11). A resin film (15) is then placed over the
electronic component (13) and the mount substrate (11). A
gas existing on an electronic-component (13) side of the
mount substrate (11) is sucked through a hole (31) provided
in the mount substrate (11) from the side of the mount
substrate (11) opposite to the electronic component (13).
The resin film (15) is thereby deformed to closely contact
the electronic component (13) and the mount substrate (11).
The resin film (15) is then heated and adhered to the mount
substrate (11).

hole  (32)  in the circuit board  (12)  with the light emitting portion or lens  (34)  extending
from one of the surfaces  (14  or  16)  of the circuit board  (12)  and the heat sink  (28) 
extending from the other one of the surfaces  (14  or  16)  of the circuit board  (12).  A
thermal coupling agent  (36  or  38)  is disposed between the heat sink  (28)  and the heat
dissipater  (30)  for providing a full thermal path between the heat sink  (28)  and the heat
