Patent EP-1065557-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRUECHMANN GERD
IPC: G02F1/163
Filed: 2000-05-13
Abstract: The method involves determining the voltage applied to the glass and comparing with a reference value. Based on the difference value, a voltage of positive or negative polarity is applied to the electrochromic glass to generate a control current until the reference voltage is reached. After this, the applied voltage is switched off or reduced so that no control current flows. After the actual voltage applied to the glass has deviated from a predetermined threshold, the voltage of the appropriate polarity is re-applied to the glass until the reference voltage is reached. An Independent claim is included for a circuit for performing the method.

Abstract: A power converter includes first and second voltage busses and a neutral bus.
A first switching circuit, e.g., a rectifier circuit, is operative to selectively couple an
input node thereof to the first and second voltage busses. A balancer circuit is
operative to selectively couple the neutral bus to the first and second voltage busses
such that relative magnitudes of respective first and second voltages on the first and
second voltage busses are controlled responsive to respective first and second rates at
which the balancer circuit couples the first and second voltage busses to the neutral
bus. A second switching circuit, e.g., an inverter circuit, is operative to selectively
couple the first and second voltage busses to a load connected at an output node
thereof. The balancer circuit preferably includes first and second switches operative
to selectively couple respective ones of the first and second voltage busses to the
neutral bus through an inductance such that the relative magnitudes of the first and
second voltages are controlled responsive to respective first and second duty cycles of
the first and second switches. The power converter is capable of multiple operating
modes and suitable for use in uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs).

Abstract: A sheet inversion device for inverting a sheet that is
fed in and for feeding out the inverted sheet has intermediate
rollers, feed-in rollers, feed-out rollers, inversion rollers,
and pressing guide members. The feed-in rollers are positioned
on one side of the intermediate rollers to feed a sheet. The
feed-out rollers are located on the other side of the intermediate
rollers to feed the sheet. The inversion rollers are located
to the rear in the feed-in direction upon the receipt of the
force produced by the advance of a sheet slip across the sheet
while rotating in the feed-out direction. The pressing guide
members exert, with the inversion rollers, a sheet pressing
force to counter the force transmitted by the sheet. In the
sheet inversion device, the pressing faces of the pressing
guide members have the same arced shape as have the outer
circumferential faces of the inversion rollers.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a stretched film
which is light and has improved mechanical properties inherent in
stretched film. 
     The stretched film of the present invention, containing the
independent voids, is the one obtained by treating the as-stretched film to
form the independent voids therein, these voids being formed by the flaky
layers which keep characteristics of the as-stretched film. These
independent voids have a thickness of, e.g., 10 to 500 µm on the
two-dimensional plane and 1 to 250 µm in the thickness direction, and the
film has a total thickness of 5 to 2000 µm thick. The stretched film may
be coated with surface layers on both sides, thickness of each surface layer
being 5 to 20% of the total thickness.

Abstract: An alternator regulator controls both output voltage and output current,
limits input drive power and torque, and maintains output power within a
prescribed range while operating over a wide ambient temperature range and
shaft speed range. Voltage, shaft speed, and temperature signals are
monitored, and the results are processed to determine the output current and
to control the output power without exceeding the programmed limits for
output voltage, output current, temperature, output power, drive power,
torque, and shaft speed. This provides a predictable output power
characteristic for the alternator and it eliminates high input drive power and
torque excursions that occur at low temperature and certain shaft speeds. If
programmed limits are exceeded over a specified interval, and the alternator
does not respond to the control changes imposed by the regulator, the
regulator will turn off the alternator's field current, activate an alarm circuit,
and set fault codes. The regulator is also capable of communicating with
other control systems to provide status, specify needs, and respond to
requests.
