Patent EP-1506428-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TIEMEIJER LUKAS F
IPC: G01R27/28
Filed: 2003-05-08
Abstract: Consistent with an example embodiment, there is a method for calibrating an N terminal microwave measurement network. The method including the measurement of network parameter values of a load device depends on the knowledge of the parasitic impedance of the load device. According to the example embodiment, the accuracy of the method is improved by at least approximately determining the parasitic impedances of the load device. This may be achieved by measuring network parameter values of an auxiliary open device, having substantially identical parasitic impedance as that of the load device. The accuracy is further increased by measuring network parameter values of an auxiliary short device, having substantially identical parasitic impedance as that of the load device. A similar principle can be used for de-embedding a device under test. A load device, an auxiliary open device and an auxiliary short device each having substantially identical parasitic impedances are disclosed.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un ensemble soupape comprenant un corps de base (2) conçu pour être monté sur une ouverture à fermer d'un récipient, d'un tuyau ou d'un élément similaire. Ledit corps de base comprend un passage (3) présentant des extrémités axiales. Un premier siège de soupape (9) se trouve à proximité d'une extrémité axiale du passage. Un élément de soupape (4) présentant des extrémités axiales et un second siège de soupape (8) est maintenu dans le corps de base, à proximité d'une extrémité axiale, le second siège de soupape pouvant être mis en prise hermétique avec le premier siège de soupape afin de fermer le passage. L'élément de soupape est mobile par rapport au corps de base, de façon limitée par une butée, entre une position de fermeture et une position de libération. Un élément de poussoir (13) comprenant des premiers systèmes de raccord (12) conçus pour venir en prise de manière amovible avec des seconds systèmes de raccord (11) situés sur l'élément de soupape peut être inséré dans le passage, du côté de son autre extrémité axiale, afin de déplacer l'élément de soupape au moins de la position de fermeture à la position de libération, de préférence également de la position de libération à la position de fermeture. Le corps de base et l'élément de soupape constituent des pièces moulées séparées. Une zone de tige (5) de l'élément de soupape (4) s'étend sur un passage qui est délimité par des bras de butée (16) faisant saillie de la paroi périphérique interne du passage (3) vers l'intérieur et qui présente une largeur de passage supérieure à la dimension radiale de la zone de tige et inférieure à celle d'une surface d'appui (18) de l'élément de soupape, de façon que la surface d'appui puisse venir en prise, limitant alors le mouvement, avec les bras de butée lorsque l'élément de soupape passe en position de libération. A l'encontre de ceci, les bras de butée peuvent fléchir de manière élastique vers l'extérieur, à partir de la position de repos limitant le mouvement, sous l'effet d'une force exercée dans un sens qui est opposé au sens de déplacement de l'élément de soupape en position de libération. Cet ensemble soupape est caractérisé en ce que l'élément de soupape (4) est monté à l'intérieur des limites axiales et périphériques du passage (3).

Title: Circuit arrangement with power factor correction, and corresponding appliance
Inventor: HERMANN WOLFGANG
IPC: H02M1/00
Filed: 2003-04-12
Abstract: The circuit arrangement has a mains connection (NA), a mains switch with two switching contacts (1, 2), a demagnetization coil (ES) and a switch-mode power supply, which contains a driver circuit (DC) for producing a control voltage (DS) for the switching transistor of the switch-mode power supply.

Abstract: A vehicle bumper system (20) includes a beam (21), and an energy absorber (22) with top and bottom horizontal sections and a mid-horizontal section. The horizontal sections form top (26) and bottom (27) nose portions that are semi-rigid but initially collapsible with a parallelogram motion that shifts the top and bottom portions vertically up (or down) upon impact. Horizontal impact forces are converted in part to vertical forces during an initial stroke of a frontal impact, "catching" an impacted human being. Then during a further continuing impact stroke, the top and bottom horizontal sections provide a "throwing" action. End sections of the energy absorber extend around ends of a bumper beam, forming a collapsible corner that, during impact, initially absorbs energy at a low rate to "catch" a person, and then develops increasing lateral forces that "throw" the person during a continuing impact stroke.

Abstract: In order to improve road safety, modern vehicles are provided with sensor systems, which assist the driver of the vehicle either directly or indirectly with respect to the environment surrounding said vehicle, especially with regard to early recognition of dangerous situations, in addition to the usual illumination device. Said systems more particularly include radar systems for detecting distance and the relative speed of objects or night vision improvement systems which are based on illumination of the field of the road environment with infrared light. According to the invention, the illumination means of the illumination device are formed by an arrangement of a plurality of semiconductor light sources (2) grouped together to form a field. Sensor elements (3) are arranged at individual positions of said field instead of said semiconductor sources (2). A multifunctional headlight can thus be advantageously created. Said headlight can be embodied as a robust, compact, low-space unit. By virtue of the fact that the light sources (2) and the sensor elements (3) do not necessarily use the same lens system (1) i.e. each individual element of the multifunctional headlight can be provided with an individually designed lens system (1), the beam path of the illumination device can be separated from the field of vision of the sensor system and can thus be determined independently over large areas.
