Patent EP-1275082-B1 (EP)

Abstract: One characteristic of electronic labels is that they can be read and written on without electrical contact through the communication coil ( 1 ). The reading heading is then positioned at some distance and communicates with the label through electromagnetic waves. When these labels are placed on metallic objects, reading becomes difficult even impossible because of the dispersion of the waves in the object. To overcome this drawback, the invention proposes the adding of an electromagnetic conductive element ( 3, 3 ') to the coil ( 1 ) in order to insulate it ( 1 ) and enhance the reception quality.

Abstract: To make a call, a calling-end terminal station (3) notifies a call-up control unit (71) of a communications network (7) of the terminal station number of a called-end terminal station (5) so as to cause it to stand by for a connection. The calling-end terminal station (3) notifies a calling party information server (9) of the calling-end-terminal-station number and the called-end-terminal-station number and instructs it to transmit to the called-end terminal station (5) calling party information stored in advance for the caller and called parties. The calling party information server (9) transmits the calling party information to the called-end terminal station (5) which in turn instructs the call-up control unit (71) to exit standby mode. This amounts to the communications network (7) calling up the called-end terminal station (5), resulting in the called-end terminal station (5) reproducing the received calling party information to alert the user to the call from the calling-end terminal station (3). If the user accepts the call, voice communication is started between the calling-end terminal station (3) and the called-end terminal station (5). A communications system is thereby realized whereby alert data to alert to a call can be altered according to the calling party with no settings at the called end. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A washing appliance such as a dishwasher where a top-loading wash chamber is slidable out of cabinet for loading and unloading has a cabinet-mounted chamber lid which is power driven down onto the open top of the wash chamber during the washing cycle. Linear actuators or motors mounted in opposite sides of the appliance cabinet are coupled to opposite sides of the lid to pull the lid down when the chamber has been slid back into the cabinet. In a preferred embodiment rotating dc motors are used to rotate a threaded nut which in turn produces linear motion in a threaded shaft engaged within the nut and connected to the lid.

Abstract: An advance arrangement for use in controlling timing of fuel delivery by a fuel pump comprises an advance piston (12) which is moveable within a first bore (14) and which cooperates, in use, with a cam arrangement of a fuel pump to adjust the timing of fuel delivery by the pump, a surface associated with the advance piston (12) being exposed to fuel pressure within an advance piston control chamber (37). The advance arrangement also includes a servo-piston (24) which is slidable within a further bore (22) provided in the advance piston (12) to control the pressure of fuel within the advance piston control chamber (38), a surface associated with the servo-piston (24) being exposed to fuel pressure within a servo control chamber (37). Means are provided for preventing fuel pressure variations in the advance piston control chamber (38) due to fuel leakage causing the advance piston (12) to drift whilst the servo-piston (24) remains in a substantially fixed position. The advance arrangement may also include a damping arrangement (39, 41, 47) for damping movement of the servo-piston (24) in a direction to retard timing which occurs as a result of movement of the advance piston (12) in a direction to advance timing at the end of a pumping event. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Monitoring apparatus is for monitoring a parameter, such as a drive current to a motor. Motor current flows through a series resistor which provides a voltage signal which varies in response to variations in the motor current. An analysis circuit is operable to analyze the rate of change of the voltage and to provide an alarm signal in the event that the rate of change continues in excess of predetermined rate for a period in excess of a predetermined time. The alarm signal could, for example, be used to indicate that an automatic door being driven by the motor has been blocked by a person or object which could be injured or damaged.

Abstract: A molding compound is provided for use in encapsulating electronic packages which include an optoelectronic component, such as an LED. The molding compound includes a partially cured epoxy composition, an antioxidant, and, optionally, a phosphor material substantially uniformly distributed throughout the epoxy composition. The optional phosphor material may be suspended within the epoxy composition by pre-reacting a portion of the epoxy composition prior to B-staging of the molding compound. As such, the optional phosphor material is suspended within the epoxy composition, thereby preventing settling of the phosphor material during B-staging, as well as during curing of the molding compound in the encapsulation process.
