Abstract: The present invention relates to drive controllers as used in machinery drives, for motor control and the like. In particular the present invention relates to a drive controller inverter. In industrial plant, to enable machinery to operate, for example, a conveyor belt in a production line, pumps, compressors, ventilation systems, hoisting gear, cranes etc electric motors are employed. Electric motors may drive machinery directly by means of a clutch, by way of a transmission belt, hydraulic path, or some other means. Electric motors and other electrical devices are typically controlled by inverters which convert input power to control input signals for the motor or other electrical device. Inverters amongst other equipment must meet increasingly stringent electromagnetic interference controls (EMC) to reduce electromagnetic interference levels. The present invention provides an inverter circuit which includes a filter circuit comprising bi-directional diodes which has been shown to provide improved EMC output.

Abstract: The invention provides a titanium alloy having a narrow
distribution of material properties in the thickness direction,
allowing easy to finish the surface of the forged material after
forging, during working the product to the final shape. The forged
titanium alloy has a low sensitivity for cracking, excellent
workability, and favorable ductility and fatigue properties, and
provides a method for forging the titanium alloy. In order to
attain the forged titanium alloy and the method for forging
thereof, forging the titanium alloy, which has Tβ °C of the β
- transus, is conducted, while keeping the relation of 400°C ≦
Td and (Tβ - 400)°C ≦ Tm ≦ Tβ at a strain rate of a range from
2 x 10 -4  s -1  to 1 s -1 , further limiting the chemical composition
of the titanium alloy, keeping the relation of [(Tm - Td) ≦ 250°C]
during forging, where Tβ (°C) is the β- transus of the titanium
alloy, Tm(°C) is the temperature of the work material for being
forged, and Td(°C) is the temperature of a die. The titanium alloy,
which is produced by the above-described method, has a fine
microstructure to be controlled for forming a specified
microstructure, has a uniform and homogeneous material
properties in the thickness direction, and has an excellent
ductility and a fatigue properties.

Abstract: When a cellular telephone is misplaced or robbed, i.e., when the cellular telephone is apart from its owner, the use of the cellular telephone is limited, an unauthorized use of the cellular telephone is prevented and the owner is warned that the cellular telephone is apart so that the owner may recognize the separation. A use limit apparatus includes a signal transmission Unit (10) and a use limit withdrawing unit provided integrally with the apparatus whose use is to be limited. Each of the units includes a transmitter and a receiver, and an identification code signal from the transmission unit (10) is received by the withdrawing unit. According to the signal, a withdrawing signal of the use limit is output. When an acknowledgement code signal is returned, the transmission unit (10) decides that the state is normal. When these units are separated by more than a predetermined distance, the signal reception level is lowered, the withdrawing unit stops the withdrawing signal, and the transmission unit (10) gives warning.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is a device (100) for coolant cooling in a gas turbine (2) which, with a relatively simple construction and low plant complexity permits a particularly high degree of efficiency in using the heat produced on cooling the coolant from a gas turbine (2). Said aim is achieved, whereby a number of interconnected evaporator tubes (140, 150, 160, 170) for a flow medium, are arranged in a coolant channel (102), connected to the gas turbine (2), to form a forced throughflow steam generator. Said device (100) is preferably used in a gas and steam turbine unit (1, 1', 1") with a waste heat steam generator (30) on the exhaust gas side of a gas turbine (2), the heating surfaces of which are connected into the water-steam circuit (24) of a steam turbine (20). The evaporator tubes (140) of the device (100) are thus connected on the inlet side by means of a supply line (112) to the feed water train of the water-steam circuit (24) of the steam turbine (20).

Abstract: According to the invention, the system automatically locates effective visibility zones from which an element to be viewed is visible. For this purpose, for this purpose, the inventive system makes use of the location of potential visibility zones (obtained from data such as sitting, morphology and orientation of the element to be viewed, potential visibility distance assigned to said element, etc.) and the morphology of the region in which the effective visibility zones are to be located. Said system avails of means of appraising the degree of visibility of different visibility zones according to the level of compliance achieved in relation to the criteria for locating visibility zones. By means of a sample practical application, the element to be viewed could be an advertising medium and the effective visibility zones could be defined by effective visibility axes that correspond to the streets of an urban environment in which other parameters can also be considered, such as the number of individuals and the transport means that pass through said streets, the direction of traffic, the time, etc.
