Patent EP-0792006-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FIEZ TERRI S
IPC: H02M3/156
Filed: 1997-02-20
Abstract: A DC-to-DC switching power supply (12) receives a DC biased power signal at
a first input (14), a control signal at its control input (16) and produces an output
DC voltage at its output terminal (20). A power supply controller (30) compares
the produced output signal V out  with an input reference signal V ref.  The
reference signal is an analog signal which may be produced via digital-to-analog
converter (34) which converts a digital input command into a corresponding
analog signal V ref.  The resulting error signal is then passed through a
proportional gain block 36 and an integral gain block (38). A signal
proportional to the differential of the output voltage is passed through a
differential gain block (44). The outputs from the proportional gain block (36)
integrator gain block (38) differential gain block (44) are summed in the second
summer (40) and applied as the input to a delta-sigma converter (42). The
output from delta-sigma (42) then constitutes a fixed-width pulse stream of
predetermined sequence such that, when applied to the control input (16) of the
switching power supply (12), the power supply produces a DC output signal
V out  at its output terminal (20) which is determined by the reference signal
V ref.

Abstract: An access port for use in surgery comprises an elongate
sleeve (2) of flexible material having an entry opening
(7) located at a proximal end (3) of the sleeve (2) and an
exit opening located at a distal end (4) of said sleeve.
An inflatable chamber (46) surrounds the sleeve (2) and
extends substantially coaxially therewith from the
proximal end (3) of the sleeve for a distance along the
length of said sleeve. The inflatable chamber (46) when
inflated operates to collapse the sleeve (2) to close the
entry opening (7). The sleeve (2) is attached to and
surrounded by the inflatable chamber (46) with the sleeve
(2) extending through the inflatable chamber (46) and
outwardly therefrom to provide a projecting flexible
sleeve portion (41) extending outwardly from the
inflatable chamber (46) to the exit opening at the distal
end of said sleeve. The projecting sleeve portion (41)
can be inserted through an incision and into a patient's
body cavity to provide a flexible sleeve portion adjacent
to the exit opening within the body cavity free of a
surrounding inflatable chamber.

Abstract: A copper wire pair linking network terminating equipment 3 in a home with a
relatively localised multiplexer 2 eg. in a street cabinet carries high data rate eg. VDSL
signals comprising eg. ATM and ISDN combined at the multiplexer. It is necessary
for the multiplexer to be provided with a power supply but, in the event of failure of
the power supply, VDSL signals could not be generated in the multiplexer. To provide
some fall-back in such a case, a metal link from the local exchange to the network
terminating equipment is formed eg. using relays A, B and C, permitting ISDN signals
to be received in the home even though the higher data rate ATM has now failed.

Inventor: OVERALL GARY SCOTT
IPC: G03G15/08
Filed: 1998-05-12
Abstract: An improved printer is provided that predicts how many pages can be
printed before the toner or ink cartridge becomes empty, and also predicts how much
time remains before this toner or ink cartridge becomes empty. This prediction is
based upon the previous printing history of the printer while using this particular
toner cartridge. After measuring the quantity of toner left in the toner cartridge, the
printer of the present invention will display the approximate quantity of toner
remaining in the cartridge on a screen of a host computer that is connected to the
printer, either directly or through a network. The monitor screen of the host
computer can also display the predicted number of pages remaining, based on the
printer's previous usage history as described above. The toner measuring device
provides a "level change" output signal when the remaining toner passes through a
predetermined gradation threshold, and depending upon the size of the toner
cartridge and upon the time and date at which the level change was detected, the
predicted number of pages remaining and the actual amount of toner remaining are
more accurately updated upon reaching one of these predetermined gradation
thresholds. As each gradation level transition occurs, the printer calculates a new
value for the "pages per gradation" variable, and also calculates the number of pages
that have been printed since the latest cartridge was installed in the printer, the
number of pages printed since the last level or gradation change, and the number of
pages or sheets printed between the last two level changes. The printer also can
approximate the amount of toner used in printing a particular page of print media to
create a Toner Tally for each printed page, which can be used to judge the amount of
toner used for one print job and compare that to the amount of toner used for a
second print job. The Toner Tally uses a combination hardware/software counter to
count the number of "active' pels of each page for a print job.

Abstract: The present invention provides a magnets containing-type motor
that minimizes a cogging torque without lowering its output. In a magnets
containing-type motor where permanent magnets are set in magnetic pole
elements of a rotor, the dimensions of each magnetic pole element are
determined to satisfy predetermined relations according to a variety of
numerical elements of the motor. In accordance with a concrete
arrangement, the dimensions of each magnetic pole element are determined,
so as to enable either one of a magnetic pole element opening angle L2 and
an equivalent magnetic pole element opening angle L3 to be expressed as
 (n+z)·Pp + x·(g/R) + y·(gp/R) , based on a predetermined relation between a
parameter (t2-t1)/g and a predetermined threshold value. In this equation,
gp denotes a length of a space between adjoining teeth; Pp denotes a central
angular pitch of teeth; R denotes a radius of an inner face of a stator; g
denotes an interval between the stator and the rotor; t2 denotes a thickness
of a magnetic pole circumferential portion; t1 denotes a thickness of a
magnetic pole element side portion; n denotes an arbitrary natural number;
and x, y, and z are real numbers that satisfy -0.6 ≤ x ≤ 0.6, 0.3 ≤ y ≤ 0.5, and
-0.06 ≤ z ≤ -0.04.

Abstract: An apparatus for efficient cleaning of the imaging
surface. The primary cleaner is a rotating collection roll
(210) located directly opposite from and on the other side
of the imaging surface from the ultrasonic cleaning assist
device (220). The ultrasonic energy is used to remove the
toner from the imaging surface enabling attraction toward
the biased collection roll. The ultrasonic energy
decreases the amount of residual toner remaining after
transfer. The residual toner that is not cleaned from the
surface by the collection roll is removed from the surface
by the rotating biased conductive brush (200), which is the
secondary cleaner. The collection roll is contactless in
that it does not come into contact with the photoreceptor.
In another embodiment of the invention, the primary cleaner
and the secondary cleaner are collection rolls with
ultrasonic cleaning assist devices directly under each
collection roll. The entire cleaning system is
contactless.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide a variable
length register device which can be used not only for assigning
an address of a memory but also as a general register. A memory
outputs an instruction to gain access to a variable length
register. A decoder decodes the instruction supplied from the
memory and composes discriminators for assigning the variable
length register and used areas therein. The first selectors
read data stored in the used areas, which are assigned in the
specified variable length register, in accordance with the
discriminators composed in the decoder, and coordinates the
areas storing the data therein. An arithmetic logical unit
carried out operations based on the data read from the first
selectors. The second selector reads the data outputted from
the arithmetic logical unit, and stores them in the variable
length register coordinating the used areas.
