Inventor: SAKAI MASANORI
IPC: G21C17/02
Filed: 1994-12-19
Abstract: A system for monitoring the operation of a plant,
which includes the facility of simulating the corrosion
potential of a material and which can assess the effect of
a countermeasure for mitigating the corrosion environment
of the material, with the corrosion potential obtained by
the simulation. The corrosion potential of the structural
material of the plant is computed through a numerical
analysis by applying an electrochemical mixed-potential
theorem on the basis of the analytical result of a charge
transfer reaction. Programs for such potential
computations are prestored in a computer system from which
data are accepted into a host computer (40 in Fig. 7). The
computed corrosion potential is related with water quality
data (for example, the concentration of hydrogen injected
into the plant), and the relationship is output to a
display unit (42).

IPC: B41J29/02
Filed: 1996-05-24
Abstract: Described is an ink jet printer casing (1) which reduces the
volume and thickness of a used ink tank by fully utilizing the
inherent ink absorbing capability of the ink absorbing
substance. A used ink containing room (25), defined by side
walls (20, 21, 22, 23), is formed on the bottom surface (1a) of
the casing (1). The used ink containing room (25) is divided
into a plural number of segmental regions by partitioning
plates (30, 31, 32, 33). Individual segments of ink absorbing
substance (40, 41, 42, 43) made of a porous material are placed
in the segmental regions, respectively. If the casing is
tilted, the water heads of the segments of ink absorbing
substance are low as a whole when viewed in the vertical
direction since the segments of ink absorbing substance (40,
41, 42, 43) are isolated from one another by the partitioning
plates (30, 31, 32, 33). The ink absorbing substance may also
be formed as a single member, and the ink led to a central part
of the used ink containing room.

Inventor: VOGT ARNO
IPC: F23N5/20
Filed: 1996-10-08
Abstract: The process ignites a gas-air mixture in a blast furnace (1), and has a gas supply which is applied to an airstream after a pre-ventilation phase, and after a subsequent reduction of the normal operating air pressure through a control valve (2). The rising pressure during the pre-ventilation phase causes a delayed lowering of the reduced normal operating air pressure of the furnace.   During the lowering phase a quantity of gas is supplied to the air, which is larger than normal. A device to perform this process, and in which an aperture (7) is arranged in a control pressure pipe (6) from the air supply pipe (3) to the control valve, is also discussed.

Title: System for distributed multiprocessor communication
Inventor: SCHIFFLEGER ALAN J
IPC: G06F15/167
Filed: 1991-11-22
Abstract: A tightly coupled communication scheme based on a common shared resource circuit and adapted particularly to a multiprocessing system including 2<N> CPUs. A mechanism has been added that allows data in a shared register to be read and incremented as a single instruction, eliminating the need for semaphore manipulations during the operation. A second mechanism has been added to permit the use of indirect addressing in the addressing of semaphore bits and shared registers. Operating systems can relocate semaphore bits and message areas to permit simultaneous execution of the same function within a single task. In addition, an instruction has been added which tests of the semaphore bit and acts upon the state of that bit. If the semaphore bit is not set then the processor takes control of the semaphore bit by setting it. If the semaphore bit is set, the processor will execute a branch and execute other instructions. Thus, jobs assigned to a processor in a multiprocessing, multitasking application do not block or wait for the semaphore bit to clear. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A traveling control system for a hydraulically driven
vehicle enables the vehicle to travel at a higher speed and also
enables a vehicle body to be braked appropriately when the
vehicle descends a slope with a travel control valve kept in its
neutral position. The traveling control system includes pressure
switches 30a, 30b for detecting an operative state of the travel
control valve 9, a detection line 31 for detecting a shift
position of a transmission 13, a controller 32, a solenoid valve
33, load lines 34a, 34b, a shuttle valve 35 and a control line 36
for cooperatively increasing the capacity of a travel motor 7
upon the detection of the travel control valve 9 being in its
neutral position and also the transmission is shifted to a high-speed
gear. A timer function 32b of the controller 32 allows the
capacity of the travel motor 7 to be increased after the elapse
of a predetermined time after the detection of the travel control
valve 9 being in the neutral position. The load lines 34a, 34b
and the shuttle valve 35 jointly serve as a hydraulic source for
switching the motor capacity.

IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 1996-05-24
Abstract: An antitachycardia stimulation device that
automatically adjusts its detection rate threshold as a
function of a sensed physiological parameter indicative
of cardiac rate. The implantable antitachycardia
stimulation device includes heart rate detection
applying a specific antitachycardia therapy in the event
that the detected heart rate falls within at least one
tachycardia rate zone. The tachycardia rate zone is
defined by a lower threshold limit, and may also be
defined by an upper threshold limit if more than one
rate zone is used. The lower threshold limit is
automatically adjusted as a function of an independently
sensed physiological parameter that predicts a normal or
natural change in the heart rate. If more than one rate
zone is used, other threshold limits may also be
adjusted automatically as a separate function of the
same sensed physiological parameter.
