Patent EP-1245461-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KOBAYASHI HIROYUKI
IPC: B60R21/239
Filed: 2002-03-27
Abstract: An airbag (10) has a slit group (18) arranged in a flexible
peripheral wall. The slit group (18) is formed by arranging a
plurality of slits (20,21) intermittently along one line. As an
inflating gas flows into the airbag (10) so that the internal
pressure of the airbag (10) rises, portion designed to rupture
between the slits ruptures to open a vent hole (17) in the area of
the slit group (18) for discharging the inflating gas. At the
peripheral edges of the individual slits (19) of the peripheral wall (11),
there are portions (24) which are solidified after melting. In this
airbag (10), the shape holdability is retained at the peripheral
edges of the slits (19). Therefore, the effective area and the
opening timing of the vent hole (17) is uniform for every airbag (10).

Abstract: The invention provides a method of using a communications device to
access an on-line service provided by a network server. In one embodiment of
the invention, a mobile telephone is used to establish a connection with a proxy
server. The mobile telephone is then used to establish a second connection with
a network server on which hypermedia information is stored. The second
connection is a secure end-to-end connection which may be achieved by either
tunneling through the proxy server or by bypassing it entirely. The second
connection is used to send a secure request for hypermedia information to the
network server. If it is determined that, in order to service the request, additional
information is required, then the mobile telephone is notified and a service
capable of providing the additional information is accessed remotely in the proxy
server by sending a communication to the proxy server via the first connection.

Abstract: A pacemaker comprises a pulse generating means (12) for delivering
stimulation pulses to a patient's heart and a controlling means (8) for controlling
the delivery of stimulation pulses from said pulse generating means. A sensor (2)
is provided to measure a parameter related to cardiac output of the patient. The
controlling means comprises an altering means (10) for altering atleast one of the
time delays W-delay between consecutive stimulation pulses to the right and left
ventricles and AA-delay between consecutive stimulation pulses to the right and
left atria from a predetermined first W- or AA-delay value to a predetermined second
W- or AA-delay value, and back to said first W- or AA-delay value. The sensor
is adapted to measure the parameter in a time window inside a time of operation
with said predetermined first W- or AA-delay value, in a time window inside a
time of operation with said predetermined second VV- or AA-delay value and in a
time window inside a time of operation after the return back to said first VV- or AA-delay
value. A determining means comprises a calculation means (6) for calculating
an average value of the measured parameter during each of said time windows
and the determining means uses said average values in determining which
one of the vV- and/or AA-delay values result in a higher cardiac output.

Abstract: A solar cell array having an exposed electroactive portion is connected to a system power supply through an insulation transformer, a ground-fault interrupter is provided between the solar cell array and the system power supply, and a ground-fault detector is provided at the grounded line of the solar cell array. A set current value at which the ground-fault detector judges a ground-fault is larger than an amount of a set current value at which the ground-fault interrupter interrupts a circuit. The insulation transformer is provided between the solar cell array and the system power supply. Owing to such structure, the present invention aims at the simplification of environment-resistive coating having a large ratio of cost of the solar cell, and the simplification of insulating coating of members that connect the solar cells in series and parallel, and provides a photovoltaic power generation system which does not stop by the leakage current of the electroactive portion in connection with such simplification of the environment-resistive coating and insulating coating.

Abstract: When a memory card (30) is inserted into a kiosk terminal (20) by a user and a
command is given for a specific map data to be purchased, the kiosk terminal (20)
stores the map data on the memory card (30). At this time, the kiosk terminal (20)
encrypts a portion of the map data using a serial number which is a code specific to
the memory card (30) as the key. Then, when the memory card (30) is inserted into a
navigation system (10), the navigation system (10) reads the map data stored on the
memory card (30) and decrypts the encrypted portion which includes the read map
data using the serial number of the memory card (30) as the key. As a result, it is
possible to minimize illegal copying of the map data onto another storage medium.

Abstract: In microwave energised ultraviolet bulbs, much of the input energy is converted to heat
emissions. It has been found that the efficiency of such a bulb can be optimised by
monitoring power density of different portions of the UV spectrum (for example, UVA
and UVC) and adjusting input power to the bulb and/or the bulbs temperature
accordingly. This may be used not only to improve efficiency of the bulb but also to
improve the efficiency of emissions at either UVA or UVC. A control system and
suitable control parameters are described.

out among all applicable policies including those embedded in the secured
electronic data. In a preferred embodiment, the access right evaluation process
is invoked only when a system being accessed is protected or a file being
accessed is detected to be in a secured format. Further, the access right
evaluation process is configured preferably to operate transparently to the user.
The access right evaluation may be advantageously used in systems or
applications in which devices, mediums or electronic data are secured and can

Abstract: In a sewage treatment plant, dissolved ammonium is extracted from the waste-water stream, and is transferred to a body of secondary water. The secondary water is passed through an electrolysis station, where the ammonium is transformed to nitrogen gas. The capture and transfer can be done by ion-exchange, the electrolysis then being done on the regenerant water. Or the capture and transfer can be done by first transforming the dissolved ammonium to ammonia gas by raising the pH of the waste-water, then passing the ammonia gas through acidic secondary-water, in which the ammonia dissolves, the electrolysis then being done on the acid-water. The electrolysed, ammonium-diminished, secondary-water can be re-used in further capture/transfer episodes. The secondary-water does not mix with the waste-water stream. <IMAGE>
