Abstract: A fluctuation torque cancellation apparatus is
added to a machine tool, such as a turret lathe, having a
cutter indexing apparatus, so that an indexing operation
can be effected at high speed with high accuracy. The
fluctuation torque cancellation apparatus includes a torque
compensation cam, fixedly mounted on an input shaft of the
cutter indexing apparatus, a slider which can be guided by
a slide guide, and has a cam follower mounted at a distal
end portion thereof, and a spring member which is received
in the slide guide, and urges the slider. Instead of the
spring member, a device for supplying the air into the
slide guide may be used. A cam curve of the cam is so
determined that when an fluctuation torque, acting on the
input shaft, is large, a large compensation torque can be
produced by the spring member, and with this arrangement a
rotary tool holder, fixedly mounted on an output shaft, can
be smoothly rotated without causing an uneven rotation.

Abstract: Es wird eine elektrische Schaltung zum Anlegen eines oszillierenden elektrischen Stromes an eine Spule (L1) eines Elektromagneten beschrieben, durch die der Elektromagnet in Abhängigkeit von Führungssignalen ansteuerbar ist. Bei dem Elektromagneten handelt es sich vorzugsweise um den Elektromagneten eines Hydrauliksteuerventils. Um einen Durchschnittsstrom zu erzeugen, der in linearem Zusammenhang mit dem Eingangs- oder Führungssignal steht wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Treiberschaltung die Spule (L1) mit einem Strom versorgt, welcher veränderliche obere und untere Grenzstromwerte (V-PU, V-PL) aufweist. Dabei nimmt der untere Grenzstromwert (V-PL) im wesentlichen einen konstanten Prozentsatz des oberen Grenzstromwerts (V-PU) ein. Beispielsweise enthält die Schaltung einen Signalteiler (R8, R9), der aus dem Eingangssignal (V-CMD) einen oberen Signalwert (V-PU) und einen unteren Signalwert (V-PL) erzeugt, wobei der untere Signalwert (V-PL) einen konstanten Prozentwert des oberen Signalwertes (V-PU) einnimmt. Ein Stromsensor (R2) erzeugt ein Strommeßsignal (VSENSE), welches den Strom durch die Spule (L1) repräsentiert. Ein erster Komparator (14) vergleicht das Strommeßsignal (VSENSE) mit dem oberen Signalwert (V-PU), und ein zweiter Komparator (16) vergleicht das Strommeßsignal (VSENSE) mit dem unteren Signalwert (V-PL). Eine Leistungsschalteinrichtung (28) ist an eine Spannungsquelle und die Magnetspule (L1) angeschlossen und verbindet oder trennt diese in Abhängigkeit der Ausgangssignale des ersten und des zweiten Komparators (14, 16). <IMAGE>

received with a single antenna in an SFN environment or in
a multipath environment. In the demodulator of a receiver
for receiving an orthogonal frequency division multiplex
modulated signal, a received signal is Fourier transformed
by an FFT circuit 3, a PRS symbol is derived from an output
of the FFT circuit, a cross power calculator 7 calculates
from this derived PRS symbol a transfer function of a
transmission path at the frequency point where a carrier is
present, the calculated transfer function is inverse
Fourier transformed by an IFFT circuit 8 to obtain an
impulse response signal, the total of levels of the impulse
response signal in a substantially and sequentially shifted
time window generally equal to a guard interval period is
calculated by an adder 12, a peak position is detected from
an output of the adder 12 by a peak position detector 13,
and the phase of a sampling signal of an A/D converter 1 is
adjusted in accordance with the detected peak position to
control the reception timing in such a manner that the peak
position converges into a target position.

Title: Internal combustion engine control
Inventor: HALLER JAMES MICHAEL
IPC: F02D45/00
Filed: 1997-11-10
Abstract: Two stroke internal combustion engine control compensates for
diagnosed cylinder misfire conditions characterized by improper combustion,
during a cylinder combustion event, of an air/fuel mixture in an engine
cylinder by learning a required number of cylinder combustion events to
periodically be skipped to allow for removal of residual combustion elements
from the cylinder following improper combustion therein, and by periodically
postponing cylinder combustion over the learned number of events. The
learned number of events may vary across engine cylinders, across engine
operating conditions, and further may vary as a function of each cylinder's
misfire propensity and severity over various engine operating conditions.

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting a field sync signal in a HDTV includes a sign bit selector (202) for selecting only a sign bit from a received HDTV signal; a correlation portion (206) for determining the correlation value of the selected sign bit and a predetermined reference signal; a detector (208, 210) for comparing the correlation value with a threshold value, to thereby determine a field sync timing signal; and a generator (212, 214, 216) for generating a field sync signal which has a logic "HIGH" level during one field sync segment interval in response to the field sync timing signal. Here, only one MSB of input data is selected and then correlation with the reference signal is determined. Accordingly, a field sync signal which has a logic "HIGH" level during one field segment interval in each field can be accurately detected, and thus a hardware structure is simplified.

Abstract: A method for configuring a wireless data packet network comprising a control node and multiple individual nodes includes the following steps: organizing the network into multiple bands Bi each band including individual nodes located i hops away from the control node; assigning a logical address to each individual node. A routing logical address is added to every data packet and each individual node compares its own logical address to the routing address of a received packet. In dependence on the result of the comparison, the packet is discarded, re-transmitted or processed in the node. The network is preferably a packet-hopping wireless network in which data packets are transferred from node to node over a common RF channel.

Abstract: A system generates and arranges animation sequences
of articulated characters for review and selection by
a user. Motion of articulated characters is based
upon input parameters, such as torques at joints of
the character. The system can be used to select
appropriate parameters to obtain desirable motion of
the articulated characters. The system generates a
set of input vectors containing parameters of the
motion. The input parameters are then processed to
determine animation sequences and corresponding output
vectors. The output vectors include characteristics
of the motion. The input vectors are selected to
provide a dispersed set of output vectors. A large
number of random input vectors can be generated and
then culled to leave a dispersed set of output
vectors. Alternatively, a set of randomly generated
input vectors of a predetermined size are randomly
perturbed, to further disperse the output vectors.
The system includes an interface for representing the
output vectors and animation sequences in a manner
which is easily reviewable by a user. The output
vectors are displayed so that positions represent
distance between the output vectors. The user can
then select specific output vectors so that the corresponding
animation sequence is displayed.
