Patent CA-2426670-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FLICK KENNETH E
IPC: G08C17/00
Filed: 2003-05-13
Abstract: A remote start control system may include an engine speed data bus reader at the vehicle for reading the engine speed signal on the vehicle data communications bus, and a remote start controller at the vehicle and connected to a receiver and the engine speed data bus reader for operating the engine starter based upon a remote start transmitter and based upon the engine speed signal. In some embodiments, the engine speed signal may include a digital code, and the engine speed data bus reader reads the digital code and converts the digital code into a pulsed tachometer emulation signal for the remote start controller. In other embodiments, the engine speed data bus reader generates an output level based upon the digital code exceeding at least one threshold, such as an engine started or engine overspeed threshold. The remote start control system is readily interfaced to a vehicle having a data communications bus to thereby be able to operate using an engine speed signal.

Title: Ultrasonic apparatus and methods for the monitoring of melting, mixing, and chemical reaction processes
Inventor: JEN CHENG-KUEI
IPC: G01N29/22
Filed: 2003-06-12
Abstract: Ultrasonic apparatus and associated methods for the in-line monitoring of melting, mixing and chemical reaction processes of materials inside an enclosed chamber having rotating elements associated therewith are presented. The chamber may be heated and the rotating elements may be blades and/or screws. The chamber may be a heating barrel and the materials may be polymer and polymer composites pellets, metal pellets and chemical compounds.  Ultrasonic sensors, which are preferably coupled to a wall of the chamber, may be high temperature ultrasonic transducers attached to the external surface of the chamber or ultrasonic buffer rods embedded into the chamber and coupled to cooled ultrasonic transducers. These sensors are operated in the reflection mode and are placed over the rotating elements. The number and locations of the sensors depend on applications. The synchronization of the transmission of the ultrasonic signals and the associated data acquisition with the position of the rotating element may be accomplished by using a high speed multiple-record data acquisition system. The ultrasonic speed and attenuation in the material being processed, or the traveling time in the material and the amplitude of the ultrasonic signals reflected by the rotating element, the ultrasonic reflection coefficient or the amplitude of the ultrasonic signals reflected at the chamber-material interface or the buffer rod probing end-material interface, and the ultrasonic signals scattered by the material within the chamber, can provide information on the: melting, mixing and chemical reaction of the materials.

Abstract: Missing of a packet addressed to a mobile host is prevented, the traffic of binding update packets is reduced, and the frequency of transmissions of binding update packets is reduced when the time during which the mobile host does not receive/transmit any packet is long. A packet communication system comprises a mobile host, a home agent, a party host, and a mobile agent so a s to transmit a packet addressed to a node present in a mobile network. The mobile agent transfers a packet received from the home agent or party host t o the mobile host if the operating mode of the mobile host is an active mode a nd the packet does not need be buffered; the mobile agent buffers the packet if the operating mode is the active mode and the packet needs to be buffered; a nd the mobile agent buffers the packet and notifies the mobile host of the arrival of the packet when the operating mode is an idle mode.

Filed: 2002-01-18
Abstract: A customized programming creation (100) system provides the ability to transmit customized programming offerings to individual users based upon their known profile (136) or their responses to contemporaneous queries. The invention provides for a programming transmission center (102) to maintain a single or multiple MPEG storage server (214) environments storing a vast library of programming and other information signals. The transmission center (102) selects and accesses programming segments or other information from the storage servers (214). Through the use of splice points encoded through the MPEG process, the programming transmission center (102) can inconspicuously splice disparate program segments together to create a single custom program stream (104) for delivery to a single user or multiple users of the same profile.

Patent CA-2442721-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SONG EUNSEOK
IPC: H03L7/197
Filed: 2002-03-20
Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer (Fig. 3) incorporates fractional spur compensation circuitry. This fractional spur compensation circuitry dynamically compensates charge pump ripple whenever a charge pump operates. It can utilize a programmable divider (336), two phase detectors (314 and 324) each using a charge pump stage pumps. A fractional accumulator stage (340) determines the number of charge pumps that operate during a phas e comparison. The PLL frequency synthesizer avoids the need for compensation current trimming. Also, fractional compensation is accomplished dynamically and in a manner that is robust to environmental changes. A phase-locked loop (PLL) fractional-N type frequency synthesizer can incorporate a sample-and- hold circuit. The synthesizer can reduce circuit size by eliminating a loop filter. The synthesizer or fractional-N type PLL can use a divider and at least two phase detectors coupled to a sample-and-hold circuit. A lock detecting circuit can initially determine a reference voltage for the sample - and-hold circuit.

Title: Internal combustion engine
Inventor: TSUBOUCHI MASANORI
IPC: F02M59/10
Filed: 2003-12-02
Abstract: A multicylinder internal combustion engine has a valve chamber (30) containing a valve train (V) for opening and closing intake valves (43) and exhaust valves (44), and decompression mechanisms (D1 to D3). First, second and third cylinders (C1, C2 and C3) are arranged in a row parallel to an axial direction (A1) parallel to the axis of a camshaft (31).      An exhaust cam (50) for opening and closing the exhaust valve, which is opened and closed by the decompression mechanism (D2), for the second cylinder (C2) is not coincident with respect to the axial direction (A1) with an abutment end (44A) of the exhaust valve with which a rocker arm (58) driven by the exhaust cam (50) comes into contact; and is coincident with respect to the axial direction (A1) with the decompression mechanism (D2). Thus, a space for placing the decompression mechanism (D2) is secured while suppressing increase in the length of the camshaft (31) and in the longitudinal size of the valve chamber (30). Consequently, the internal combustion engine can be formed in compact construction. Interference between the pump cam (68) and the decompression mechanism can be avoided and increase in the length of the camshaft can be suppressed by disposing the centrifugal weight (91) of the decompression mechanism (D3) at a specific position on the side of the cam lobe (Np) of the pump cam (68) as viewed in the axial direction (A1).

Title: Workpiece steady for a decorating machine
Inventor: MCCOY GARY W
IPC: B65G47/26
Filed: 2004-04-07
Abstract: A reduction to the traveling motion of bottles along a delivery conveyor in an intermittent motion decorating machine is provided by one of a pair of workpiece feed cams rotatably supported in a side-by-side relation to rotate about spaced horizontal axes lying in a common horizontal plane. The workpiece feed cams have feed cam tracks for receiving cam followers of each of plurality of vertical bottle carriers. One of the feed cam tracks reduces the speed of the bottle carriers from a relatively high entry speed corresponding to the through put speed in the decorating machine to the speed of the deliver conveyor for more densely populating the delivery conveyor with workpieces. Carrier transfer members at each of opposite ends of the workpiece feed cams transfer the bottle carriers from one to the other of the workpiece feed cams. A drive rotates the workpiece feed cams, carrier return cams and carrier transfer members. The decorating machine is provided with a registration station preceding spaced apart decorating stations. The registration station includes a drive to reduce the clamping pressure by chucks on a workpiece while establishing a predetermined orientation of each workpiece relative to the decorating stations.
