Patent EP-0845399-A3 (EP)
IPC: B61B13/12
Filed: 1997-11-27
Abstract: A monitor camera transporting apparatus (10) which comprises
rails (12) laid along a transportation path of a monitor
camera (11), a carriage (21) having the monitor camera mounted
thereon and movable along the rails, and transporting means
(31) for moving the carriage by means of compressed air. The
transporting means includes a pipe (32) provided parallel to
the rails and having a slit (32a) formed in its lower part
along a full length of the pipe, an internal moving body (34)
movable within the pipe by means of compressed air introduced
into the pipe, a connecting plate (33) connected at its one end
to the internal moving body and externally projected at the
other end through the silt to be connected with the carriage, a
sealing wire (36) disposed within the pipe along the full
length of the pipe to close the slit, and a wire retracting
part (37k) formed in the internal moving body or connecting
plate for retracting inwardly of the pipe the sealing wire located
at the connecting plate. Thereby, even at such dangerous
place where no persons are allowed to enter and no electric
motors can be used, the monitor camera can be transported efficiently,
safely and reliably even to such an object in the dangerous
place to be photographed as moving at a high speed to
observe the inside of the place.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for measuring the
height of an apex of an object (601) with high accuracy
without influence of the surface state of the object are
disclosed. Correlation coefficients of respective
positions of a waveform (102) formed from digital data
indicative of the height of the object detected by a
head portion of a detector (603) and a previously
prepared standard waveform (101) are calculated while
moving the waveforms in the vertical and horizontal
directions and the height of an apex position of the
standard waveform at a position having a largest
correlation coefficient from the calculated result is
decided as the height of the apex of the object.
Accordingly, the height of the apex can be decided from
the whole detected waveforms without influence of local
abnormality of the reflected light quantity waveform due
to minute ruggedness or discoloration of the surface of
the object.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for estimating software 
operation and performance measures using a goal/question/metric 
paradigm. In the present invention, each goal is associated 
with questions and metrics and stored to memory as a tree (36). 
The nodes in the tree are then interconnected (38) in 
accordance with boolean logic relationships. A minimal path is 
determined (40) through the tree. Probabilities are then 
assigned (42) to each node and used in assigning (44) an overall 
probability to the top node or goal. A percentage contribution 
to the overall probability is then assigned (46) to each node. 
The probabilities, minimal path and percentage contributions are 
then used in determining (48) an action plan for use during 
development of the software to ensure software operation and 
performance accordingly.

Abstract: A computation apparatus such as a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)
apparatus which processes ordered sets of data in a computation unit (4, 24)
operating according to a high-speed clock includes an input buffer (1, 21) arranged
to accept data in synchronism with a relatively low-speed clock, and an output
buffer (6, 26) arranged to discharge the data in synchronism with the low-speed
clock. The apparatus includes an internal memory (3, 23) as well as means such as
selectors (2, 22) and (5, 25) for transferring data in synchronism with the high-speed
clock from the input buffer to the computation unit or the memory; between the
computation unit and the memory; and from the computation unit or the memory to
the output buffer. The transferring means is arranged to reorder the data, preferably
in reverse-digit sequence, during transfer from the input buffer or during transfer to
the output buffer. This avoids the need for a separate reordering memory at the
input end or output end of the device.

Abstract: A vent valve (10) for a gasoline tank has a multi-piece
valve housing (16) that is inserted into the tank through a tank wall
opening. The multi-piece housing includes a valve member (16) of acetal
resin and a cap member (18) of high density polyethylene (HDPE) that
has a flange (32) that is ultrasonically welded to the gasoline tank and a
coupling skirt (38) that has minimal protrusion into the gas tank. The
coupling skirt fits into upper portion of the valve member and has a
plurality of key-ways (40) that receive inwardly projecting lugs (42) of the
valve member to couple the valve and cap members to each other. The
valve and cap members are retained in the coupled position by resilient
lock fingers (46) of the valve member that engage notches (44) in the
bottom of the coupling skirt. The resilient lock fingers are cantilever
beams that extend radially outwardly from an anchor spaced radially
inwardly of an outer cylindrical wall of the valve member. The resilient
lock fingers do not extend outwardly of the cylindrical wall to provide a
snag free coupling arrangement. In a modification the notches (44')
coincide with entrance portions of the key-ways (40'). The cap member
(120) of a second embodiment has a coupling skirt with key ways that fits
over an upper portion of the valve member that has outwardly projecting
lugs (144) and resilient lock fingers (146) that are cut out of the wall of
the valve member. In a modification of the second embodiment the
outwardly projecting lugs (144') and lock fingers (146') are part of the
coupling skirt and the key-ways (124') are part of the valve member
(140').

Abstract: An electrodeless lamp apparatus of high efficiency
employs a reflection system that allows the lamp to
reabsorb light energy. The energy is redirected back to the
light to provide increased system efficiency. The
redirected light is of the wrong polarization and/or wrong
parts of the color spectrum. The lamp efficiency is
increased because of the optical pumping as well as the
reuse (after some downshifting) of the returned light. In
one embodiment, a projection system provides an image
source or projection engine that includes the improved high
efficiency lamp of the present invention.

A page specifying area 3 for specifying a page in the
expansion area 4 is provided within the common area 2. A
data in a memory card 5 corresponding to the page specified
in the page specifying area 3 is transferred to the expansion
area 4 for a CPU to access that data. And the page can be
changed with a page changing device 6 within the memory card,
therefore it is possible to obtain the memory capacity
arbitrarily.
