Patent EP-0948762-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BARKER RICHARD JOHN
IPC: G05F1/565
Filed: 1998-09-11
Abstract: A stable voltage regulator circuit of simple circuit configuration comprises a differential amplifier (M2, M3) which is powered from a supply line (1) at a nominal voltage level (Vin), by being coupled between the supply line and a return line (2). A reference device (M1) is coupled to a first input (4) of the differential amplifier (M2, M3) for defining a desired output voltage (Vca) on an output line (3) coupled to an output (6) of the differential amplifier (M2, M3). In accordance with the invention, the differential amplifier (M2, M3) is coupled to the return line (2) by a varying current source (M4) which feeds a varying bias current to the differential amplifier (M2, M3) and which is controlled from the supply line (1) in accordance with variations in the nominal voltage level (Vin) on the supply line (1). The varying bias current to the differential amplifier (M2, M3) provides a first-order compensation of the output voltage (Vca) for these voltage variations on the supply line (1). A second-order compensation is provided by a feedback coupling (R7, R8) from the output line (3) to the second input (5) of the differential amplifier (M2, M3).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un composite de fenêtrage thermoréflecteur comprenant successivement: (a) un substrat sensiblement transparent; (b) une première couche diélectrique extérieure; (c) une couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges; (d) une couche métallique de correction des couleurs comprenant un métal différent de la couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges; (e) une couche métallique de protection comprenant un métal différent de la couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges et de la couche de correction des couleurs; et (f) une seconde couche diélectrique extérieure. Les couches diélectriques sont plus spécifiquement constituées par de l'oxyde d'indium, de l'oxyde de zinc et d'indium, de l'oxyde d'étain et d'indium ou de mélanges de ces oxydes. De préférence, le composite comprend également des couches supplémentaires de couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges, de couche de correction des couleurs, de couche de protection et de couche diélectrique. De préférence, le composite comprend une couche supérieure de verre ou d'un plastique polymère transparent. La couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges est plus spécifiquement constituée d'argent, d'or, de cuivre, ou d'alliages de ces métaux. La couche métallique de correction des couleurs présente généralement un indice de réfraction dans l'intervalle de lumière visible compris entre 0,6 environ et 4 environ, et un coefficient d'extinction de la lumière dans l'intervalle de lumière visible compris entre 1,5 environ et 7 environ. Des métaux tels que le chrome, le cobalt, le nickel, le zinc, le palladium, l'indium, l'étain, l'antimoine, le bismuth, et des alliages de ces métaux, peuvent être utilisés dans la couche métallique de correction des couleurs, l'indium étant toutefois le métal préféré. La couche métallique de protection est fabriquée à partir d'un métal dont l'oxyde est sensiblement non optiquement absorbant, tel que l'aluminium, le titane, le zirconium, le niobium, l'hafnium, le tantale, le tungstène, et des alliages de ces métaux, le titane étant toutefois le métal préféré. Les couches métalliques de protection et de correction des couleurs peuvent également être disposées sur les deux faces de la couche métallique de réflexion des infrarouges. Les composites de l'invention permettent d'obtenir une structure de fenêtrage thermoréflectrice dotée de propriétés de résistance à la dégradation exceptionnelles et de propriétés de réduction de la transmission de la lumière visible, sans réflectance exagérée.

fiber assemblies with lenses that are disposed such that
the optical axes thereof are parallel in the same
reference plane. The optical fiber assemblies with lenses
are supported by a lens holding member (16). A prism
holding member (24) is supported by the lens holding
member (16) such that it supports first and second prisms

Abstract: A container for microwave cooking having geometric features
which improve the efficiency and uniformity of microwave cooking of
food products containing liquids and which enhance boiling
uniformity while preventing boilover of the contents. The container
has a bottom portion and a side panel (18) wherein the bottom portion
contains a central segment (13) in the shape of a section of a sphere.
The side panel is tapered outwardly as it extends from the bottom
portion to an end opening. Sharp corners are avoided within the
container. As the result of the geometry of the container, a more
uniform distribution of heat within the contents of the container
is attained during cooking and the combination of uniform heating,
the lack of sharp corners and the tapered side panel causes boiling
of the contents without bumping, thereby minimizing the risk of boil
over.

Abstract: In order to produce a metal bellows (2) of a length of "Ls" for use
in a heated atmosphere, the following steps take place. First, a blank
of the bellows is prepared, which is a metal pipe having a plurality of
bulges formed therearound. The blank (2X) has a length of "L" that is
longer than the length "Ls". Then, the blank (2Y) is axially compressed
by a length of "a", so that the compressed blank has a length of "L-a"
that is shorter than the length "Ls". Then, the compressed blank is
axially expanded so that the expanded blank (2Z) has a length of "L-a+b"
that is longer than the length "Ls". Then, the force that has been
applied to the blank is removed, and then the treated blank is left in
room temperature until the time when the treated blank becomes to have
the length of "Ls" due to the spring-back phenomenon.

Abstract: Le procédé de cette invention peut servir à la fois de consignateur de données brutes (36) pour l'analyse du fonctionnement d'un puits et comme consignateur d'événements de puits pour l'analyse du rendement du puits. Cette invention offre une technique améliorée de consignations des événements hors site et des variables de process et de conservation des données, conçue spécialement pour répondre aux besoins des puits à débit de gaz intermittent et éliminer ainsi le risque de fuite de gaz, associé à des conditions de débit gazeux irrégulier ou intermittent, pour éliminer également les erreurs de mesure et réduire le coût de fonctionnement. Les données de puits (1.1, 34) peuvent être analysées en quelques secondes pour donner une indication du débit courant, et lorsqu'un ensemble de conditions spécifiques sont réunies, un programme de régulation intégré réagit à ces conditions en fermant le puits jusqu'à ce que certains critères de pression soient réunis pour rétablir le débit dans le puits. Afin de préserver l'intégrité des mesures, l'intégration du débit comprend une consignation précise d'événements (1.2) se rapportant aux positions des vannes permettant d'indiquer la période de débit courant.
