Patent EP-0577352-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MERRITT DAN
IPC: F02B3/06
Filed: 1993-06-25
Abstract: An internal combustion engine has first and second cylinders (12, 14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14) and the second cylinder being formed in the crown of the first cylinder. First and second pistons (16, 18) are reciprocable respectively in the first and second cylinders (12, 14), the second piston (18) being formed as a protrusion on the crown of the first piston (16). The first cylinder has an air inlet (25) and an exhaust outlet (27) whilst a first fuel source (34) provides fuel to the second cylinder (14). The second piston has a crown (35) which is spaced from and connected to the crown (36) of the first piston and which has an edge (37) which is relatively thin in the axial direction compared to the spacing of the first piston crown from the second piston crown. This defines a combustion space (20) between the piston crowns and a side wall (14a) of the second cylinder (14) when the pistons are substantially at the inner dead centre position. The combustion space (20) communicates with both cylinders (12,14) during part of the expansion stroke. A spark plug (52) is provided communicating with the combustion space. Inhibiting means is also provided for inhibiting ingression prior to the pistons (16,18) arriving at or adjacent the inner dead centre position. This can take the form of a gap (128) between the second piston crown (35) and the second cylinder side wall (14a) with a peripheral groove (39) in the second cylinder wall at its upper end to enable the fuel/air mixture in the second cylinder (14) above the crown (35) to bypass the piston crown when the latter is at its inner dead centre position and enter the combustion space (20). The geometrical compression ratio of the engine, being the ratio of the volumes within the cylinders available for occupation by gas at the piston outer and inner dead centre positions, is chosen to ensure that the pressure and temperature reached in said combustion space near the end of the compression stroke are insufficient to cause spontaneous compression ignition of the fuel used. The ignition process is started with a spark and allowed to continue by compression ignition. After the spark ignition process begins, the flame raises the pressure and temperature of the gas in the combustion space sufficiently to cause compression-ignition of the remainder of the vaporised fuel as it ingresses into the combustion space under the action of the smaller piston and mixes with more air.

Abstract: The method and the device for preparing sheets (30) for packaging make it possible to cut out a packaging sheet from a strip (3) and to present it opposite the box (packet) (20) to be packaged. By carrying out, first of all, a precut (32), leaving a few points of attachment (32A) remaining between the end of the strip and the precut sheet (31), then by imposing a longitudinal tension on it and by imparting an impact to it, it is entirely separated from the strip and a space is created between the end of the strip and the cut sheet. In this manner, the risk of jamming of the packaging machine is avoided, while simplifying the synchronisation of the various elements of the device which makes it possible to operate the packaging machine (1) at a high production rate. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un modem (100) comprend un égaliseur servant à égaliser un signal reçu (10) pour corriger une distorsion de gigue d'amplitude. Le signal reçu comprend des symboles modulés basés sur une constellation prédéterminée de points, chaque point représentant un symbole. Le modem extrait tout d'abord un symbole modulé afin de produire un symbole extrait, R(k), qui comprend la distorsion de gigue d'amplitude. Le modem identifie ensuite un point signal Pn(k) de la constellation prédéterminée correspondant au symbole extrait. De plus, le modem détermine un signal d'erreur (76) basé sur la distorsion de gigue d'amplitude, puis utilise le signal d'erreur pour compenser des symboles subséquents extraits par rapport à cette distorsion.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for fastening an injection pump (2) on a bracket provided on the crankcase of an internal combustion engine. To reduce pollutants in the exhaust gas, increasing use is being made of high-pressure injection. This results in high reaction torques of the injection pump (2) and, according to the invention, these are absorbed by virtue of the fact that the upper surface of an integrally cast bracket (9) projecting from the side of the crankcase (2) or of an integrally cast part-bracket (3), also projecting from the side of the crankcase (2) and complemented by a part-bracket (4) supported on and fastened to it at the side, is extended so far towards the outside that the upper surface thus produced enables the injection pump (2) to be supported directly over the full width of its base (1) and fastened by means of screws. <IMAGE>
