Patent EP-1108917-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ASAI SEIJI
IPC: F16D65/28
Filed: 2000-12-18
Abstract: This invention provides a brake cable mounting structure
for a drum brake, in which even if the distance from the
brake mounting surface to the center of the brake shoes
(110,120) in the width direction is short, the layout of the
brake cable mounting section and the mechanical expander
(300) is sufficient and effectively provided. Further, the
anchor (200) only needs to support the braking force, thereby
providing that the device can be made smaller and lighter.
The brake cable mounting structure of this invention is
characterized in that the inner cable (410) of the brake
cable (400) extends out from the brake and the guide pipe
(510) on which the outer casing (430) of the brake cable is
supported is integrally fixed with the back plate structure.

Abstract: There is provided an aligner apparatus and method which
can align a semiconductor substrate without contaminating a rear
surface. The aligner apparatus for arbitrarily aligning the
circular semiconductor substrate having a notch or "orifla" at
an edge portion includes at least three spindle units rotatably
axially supported by a plate, holding units for holding the
semiconductor substrate, attached to respective tip ends of the
spindle units, a rotation mechanism for rotating the spindle
units, and a sensor for detecting the notch or "orifla". An edge
portion of the semiconductor substrate is brought into contact
with the respective holding units, so that the semiconductor
substrate is held. When the spindle units rotate, the
semiconductor substrate held by the holding units rotates around
its axial line.

Abstract: Faults on power lines are detected by measuring the voltage and current at one end of
a power line and uses these measurements, together with values of series and shunt
parameters of the line, to calculate values of voltage and current at an intermediate point
on the line - the so-called "reach point". At least the calculated voltage is used to determine
whether a fault lies within a particular zone on the line. The calculation utilizes a value of
a derivative of said measured current with respect to time and is able to take into account
the sectioning of a line into discrete lengths corresponding to, for example, overhead and
cable sections. To increase accuracy, the line or each discrete section of the line is
conceptually divided into subsections each having their own parameter values. In a second
aspect of the invention, detection of whether a fault lies within a particular zone involves
the measurement of first-end voltage and current both before and after the fault, the
calculation of the complex impedance between an intermediate point of the line and a
reference point, normally earth, using these measured values and values relating to line
parameters and to a source impedance of the second end of the line, and the determination
of the sign of the complex impedance.

Abstract: A digital receiver for receiving an analog host signal with one or more digital
sidebands includes a bandreject filter arranged at least in part in an intermediate frequency
(IF) processing stage of the receiver. In an illustrative embodiment, first and second digital
sidebands are transmitted on either side of a frequency modulated (FM) analog host signal
in a hybrid in-band on-channel (HIBOC) digital audio broadcasting (DAB) system. The
received composite signal is filtered in the IF processing stage of the receiver by the
bandreject filter in order to substantially attenuate the analog host signal while passing the
digital sidebands. The bandreject filter may be arranged in the IF processing stage so as to
filter the analog host signal from the composite signal at a point prior to an input of an
automatic gain control (AGC) circuit, such that the AGC operating point is determined
primarily by the digital sidebands. The bandreject filter may have a group delay
characteristic for a portion of a frequency spectrum associated with the digital sidebands
that is selected to equalize a corresponding group delay characteristic for a signal path of
the receiver.

Abstract: A stator vane frame assembly including an outer structure ring (34), an inner
structure ring (36), a set of discrete vanes (22) each connecting the outer
structure ring (34) and the inner structure ring (36) forming an inner and outer
platforms with neighboring vanes (22) defining a set of flow paths, a set of
sealing members (30, 32) contoured to a set of gaps between the set of vanes
(22) disposed to sealing the gap. A method for applying a sealing member
(30, 32) to the gaps between a platform formed resulting from the coupling
between vanes (22) including affixing a set of stator vanes (22) on an inner
frame and an outer frame, and sealing a set of sealing members (30, 32) on
the backside surface of a stator vane frame. The discrete nature of individual
vane blade sealed by the sealing members (30, 32) renders the stator vane
frame assembly to add a damping effect which increases the fatigue life of the
vane (22), and permits the use of lower strength, lighter, and less expensive
material.

Abstract: A threaded connection between a first part (2) with a recess (4) which opens
outwards, and a second part (3), incorporates a through-screw (7) which has
screwed onto it a nut (8) which is intended to be insertable in the recess (4)
between mutually facing flanges (5,6) situated in the recess. The nut (8) can,
by turning the screw (7), be brought to a locking position under the flanges,
which may be followed by tightening the screw to achieve locking against the
flanges. The screw (7) has between its head (10) and its thread (11) an
unthreaded portion (12), the length of which is greater than the thickness of the
second part (3) at the screw hole (13). This means that the nut cannot be
screwed to abut unintentionally against the second part (3), thereby preventing
incorrect fitting.

Pour réaliser la sélection, le contenant de l'élément est localisé, et puis la route locale de l'élément à l'intérieur de l'arbre syntaxique est suivie, de telle manière qu'une signature de l'élément construit à partir de cette identification peut être élaborée et stockée en vue d'une utilisation ultérieure lors de l'extraction et de la traduction de la valeur de l'élément d'intérêt. Ce dernier peut alors être traduit par un traducteur de langage adéquat au demandeur. Une autre subtilité du procédé de cette invention repose sur la recherche d'éléments répétés et le stockage subséquent d'un desdits éléments sélectionnés, tel que le premier élément répété.

Abstract: A novel coating for medical devices provides nitric oxide delivery using nanofibers of linear poly(ethylenimine)diazeniumdiolate. Linear poly(ethylenimine)diazeniumdiolate releases nitric oxide (NO) in a controlled manner to tissues and organs to aid the healing process and to prevent injury to tissues at risk of injury. Electrospun nano-fibers of linear poly(ethylenimine) diazeniumdiolate deliver therapeutic levels of NO to the tissues surrounding a medical device while minimizing the alteration of the properties of the device. A nanofiber coating, because of the small size and large surface area per unit mass of the nanofibers, provides a much larger surface area per unit mass while minimizing changes in other properties of the device.

distributed synchronous transaction system manages the recovery of the
failure. 
     In such a system, processing groups are managed by comparing at least a
portion of a state of a prospective member of a processing group with at least
a portion of a group state of the processing group; by updating said at
least a portion of the state of said prospective member, should said comparing
indicate a difference; and by joining said prospective member to said

Abstract: Electromagnetic waves are transmitted with a known velocity normal to an interface surface where the wave is partially reflected and the time of flight of the reflected component is measured. The interface position is calculated knowing the wave propagation velocity in the different media and the time of flight. The propagation velocities in the different media are calculated taking into account the quadratic proportionality of the dielectric constant to the reflection factor. The dielectric constant is used to determine the propagation velocity in an unknown medium. According to the invention it is calculated from the amplitude ratio of the reflected wave to the transmitted wave using a quadratic equation linking the two values. An Independent claim is made for a device for determining the interface surface of different media in a storage reservoir.
