Patent EP-1297772-A3 (EP)
Inventor: REW HO SEON
IPC: A47L5/22
Filed: 2002-06-17
Abstract: Disclosed is a centrifugal blower for a vacuum cleaner
capable of achieving an improvement in motor cooling
efficiency. The centrifugal blower includes air guides so that
air sequentially passing through an impeller (54), diffuser vanes (56),
and guide vanes (7) is guided in a concentrated fashion toward the
rotor (64) of a motor (60). Accordingly, the rotor (64) generating a large
amount of heat during operation of the motor (60) is effectively
cooled, so that it is possible to achieve an improvement in the
reliability of the motor while extending the life span of the
motor, and reducing the insulation grade of the motor.

Abstract: A radiological imaging apparatus of the present invention comprises an image pickup device (2) and a medical examinee holding device (16) that is provided with a bed. The image pickup device includes a large number of radiation detectors (4) and radiation detector support plates (5). A large number of radiation detectors are mounted around the circumference of a through-hole and arranged in the axial direction of the through-hole. The radiation detectors are arranged in three layers formed radially with respect to the center of the through-hole (6) and mounted on the lateral surfaces of the radiation detector support plates. Since the radiation detectors are not only arranged in the axial direction and circumferential direction of the through-hole (6) but also arrayed in the radial direction, it is possible to obtain accurate information about a γ-ray arrival position in the radial direction of the through-hole (the positional information about a radiation detector from which a γ-ray image pickup signal is output). The use of accurate information about γ-ray arrival increases the tomogram accuracy. As a result, the present invention enhances the tomogram accuracy, that is, the PET examination accuracy.

Abstract: A navigation-satellite receiver depends on a network
server to occasionally provide key pieces of information
needed during its initialization. The navigation-satellite
receiver critically maintains its position uncertainty,
sigmaPos, to under 150-km. Therefore, at least every five
minutes, the navigation-satellite receiver uses a network
connection to download all the ephemeris information for all
the operational SV's. The power-off time uncertainty,
sigmaTime, is kept under one millisecond by running a real-time
clock with a software-compensated crystal oscillator
reference. Such information is instantly available at power-up
to reduce the time necessary to produce a first fix when
receiver signal levels are under -150dbm even for the
strongest SV.

Abstract: A brake cover  (18)  and shaft  (24)  rotate with a pedal lever  (20) 
relative to a central section  (14)  of the housing  (12)  rotate a pedal gear  (76) . The pedal
gear  (76)  rotates a sensor gear  (74)  to rotate a sensor arm  (46)  about a sensor axis  (48) .
The sensor arm  (46)  supports sensor members  (58)  that move along sensor bands  (50)  to
generate an electrical signal. As the brake cover  (18)  rotates with the pedal lever  (20)  it
uncoils coil springs  (84)  to cause brake shoes  (80)  to pivot radially outward about
respective posts  (82)  frictionally engage the interior surface  (78)  of the central section
 (14)  to thereby provide a resistance or hysteresis to movement of the pedal lever  (20) .
One feature resides in at least two elements  (74, 76)  to interconnect the sensor arm  (46) 
and the pedal arm  (20)  to reduce space while maintaining the requisite movement of the
sensor members  (58)  over the sensor bands  (50)  and the other feature resides in spacing
the braking mechanism axially from the sensor arm  (46)  in radially overlapping
relationship to one another along the pedal axis (A).

Abstract: Reference frequency spur cancellation in a synthesized measurement receiver is
achieved by determining for any given frequency to which the receiver is tuned a list of integer
multipliers of the reference frequency that produce spurious signals in the receiver's
passband. For those values the amplitude and phase for each spurious signal is determined
in the digital domain and subtracted from the digital signal from the receiver. The reference
frequency is then offset slightly and the measurement repeated. The maximum values
between each measurement are combined to produce a measurement for the input signal
without spurious signals.

Abstract: A foil is formed on a given substrate, then, peeled off of the substrate and floated on the water surface charged in a tank. The surface level of the water is decreased to contact the foil to a folding plate of a jug substrate and thus, fold the foil at the folding plate in two. The two surfaces of the foil opposing each other are laminated along a foil forming-supporting plate within a laminating region. The thus laminated foil is dried and annealed except the area in the vicinity of the foil forming-supporting plate, and then, cut along the folding plate, a foil acceptor and a supporting plate, to provide a stripping foil which can be supported by itself.
