Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé et un système qui permettent de compenser l'usure des roues, lequel système fait appel à des informations de position et/ou de vitesse en provenance d'un système de positionnement indépendant pour mesurer une distance parcourue par le train. Des informations de rotation des roues et/ou de distance et de vitesse sur la distance parcourue sont également recueillies, en provenance d'un capteur de roue. Les informations de rotation des roues et les informations de distance et/ou de vitesse sont alors utilisées pour mesurer la taille des roues du train et/ou pour déterminer un facteur de correction permettant de corriger les informations en provenance du capteur de roue eu égard à l'usure des roues. Le procédé de l'invention est mis en oeuvre périodiquement afin de corriger les modifications se produisant dans la taille des roues au fil du temps en raison de l'usure, de sorte que les informations de rotation des roues peuvent être utilisées pour déterminer la position et la vitesse du train en cas de défaillance du système de positionnement.

Title: Audio amplifier
Inventor: FRENCH JOHN B
IPC: H04R5/04
Filed: 2005-05-05
Granted: 2007-08-21
Abstract: In a first aspect, the invention provides an audio amplifier. A regulator reference signal corresponding to an input audio signal is generated by regulator reference generator. A  power signal is generated corresponding to the regulator reference signal by a voltage regulator. A compensation block also uses the input signal, or a delayed version of the input signal to generate a modulation control signal. A modulator generates a modulated signal in response to the modulation control signal. An output stage combines the power signal and the modulation signal to provide an output audio signal corresponding to the input audio signal. The compensation block may be a forward compensation block configured to compensate for characteristics of the regulator reference generator or the voltage regulator or both, and possibly other components of the amplifier. In other embodiments, the compensation block may be part of a feedback compensation loop.

Title: Prediction of aspirated volume of a liquid
Inventor: GRAHAM EDWARD J
IPC: G01N1/14
Filed: 2006-07-31
Granted: 2015-12-22
Abstract: A method of aspirating a liquid, includes: providing an aspirating probe which comprises a probe tip and a piston pump, wherein the probe tip and piston pump are in fluid communication; measuring an initial gas pressure in the tip of the aspirating probe prior to the liquid entering the liquid to be aspirated; moving the tip into the liquid, whereby a volume of gas is located between the top of the liquid and the piston of the piston pump; moving the piston of the piston pump a predetermined distance which corresponds to a selected volume of liquid to be aspirated; measuring the gas pressure in the volume of gas when the piston stops moving and the column of liquid pulled into the tip has equilibrated; determining the piston volume created by the movement of the piston; and determining the volume of liquid aspirated by the following formula: V liquid aspirated = V piston volume - ((P initial - P final) * Volume/unit pressure), wherein P initial is initial gas pressure before the liquid enters the tip, P final is final pressure of the volume of gas after the column of liquid has equilibrated, and Volume/unit pressure is the change of the gas volume for each change of unit pressure. In a preferred embodiment, the pressure is expressed in analog/digital counts. In another preferred embodiment, the liquid is a sample or reagent in a diagnostic analyzer.

Title: Power supply device
Inventor: KATAYAMA JUNTA
IPC: H02J7/00
Filed: 2005-08-19
Granted: 2009-10-13
Abstract: A cooling fan (30) of a secondary battery (10) and a cooling fan (40) of a DC/DC converter (20) are arranged in parallel to share the same air discharge path (80).  A temperature sensor (12) on an air intake side and a temperature sensor (14) on an air discharge side are attached to the secondary battery (10). When the cooling fan (30) is in failure, a temperature deviation between the air intake side and the air discharge side in the secondary battery (10) increases because a backflow component (95) of a discharge air (90) is generated through the discharge path (80) as the cooling fan (40) operates. Based on this phenomenon, when operation commands for both of the cooling fans (30, 40) are issued, the control circuit (50) senses a failure in the cooling fan (30) by monitoring the temperature difference between temperatures (Tb1, Tb2) detected by the temperature sensors (12, 14). Failure detection is thereby possible without providing a sensor at each of the cooling fans.

Abstract: A corner joint between two frame lineals of a pultruded window frame is defined by inserting a leg of a corner member into a hollow interior of each lineal and attaching the legs to the lineals by adhesive. Each leg has a plurality of surfaces thereof each having a first portion at the corner which lies closely adjacent a corresponding surface of the first lineal and a second portion, at the end of the first portion remote from the corner which tapers inwardly away from the corresponding surface of the first lineal such that a spacing therebetween increases in the direction away from the corner. The adhesive is applied to the tapered portion and the taper acts to force the adhesive along the leg to the first portion and to the ends of the lineals where the excess can be wiped away.

Title: Configurations and methods for sox removal in oxygen-containing gases
Inventor: CHOW THOMAS KING
IPC: B01D53/50
Filed: 2005-10-20
Granted: 2011-02-08
Abstract: Sulfur oxides are removed from an oxygen-containing acid gas (102) in configurations and methods in which oxygen is removed from the acid gas using reducing gases at relatively high temperature. The so treated acid gas is then fed to a direct reduction reactor (130) in which the sulfur species are converted to elemental sulfur (132). Contemplated configurations are particularly effective and economically attractive as they are generally not limited by reaction equilibrium as present in a Claus reaction and do not require solvent and solvent-associated equipment.
