Patent EP-1430450-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WAECHTER MARK L
IPC: G07D5/02
Filed: 2002-09-12
Abstract: A coin sensor is provided including a method and apparatus for providing adaptive operating point (AOP) control. The AOP control is provided using circuits and associated methods and algorithms connected between measurement circuits of the coin sensor and the coin sensor oscillator. The AOP control automatically monitors and controls the quiescent voltage levels of four signals used by the coin sensor to discriminate coins. The four signals represent coin size and coin composition. In addition, the AOP control automatically performs calibration and adjustment functions both during manufacture of the coin sensor system and during its operational life. The automatic monitoring and control functions provided by the AOP control result in a significant increase in the dynamic range of the coin sensor response. This reduces the coin false-reject rate while improving the coin discrimination precision.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un détecteur/régulateur de courant à boucle fermée destiné à des systèmes sans fil utilisant un schéma de modulation à enveloppe d'amplitude non constante. Toutes les composantes de fréquence AM du signal de réaction résultant de signaux à enveloppe d'amplitude non constante sont éliminées par annulation aval du signal à enveloppe. Globalement, ce détecteur permet d'obtenir un signal représentant la variation AM dans les signaux à enveloppe d'amplitude non constante avant l'amplification. Ce signal à variation AM est ensuite utilisé pour annuler les composantes AM du signal de réaction résultant de l'enveloppe non constante pour créer un signal de commande d'amplification de puissance sans variations AM, avec uniquement le profil de rampe désiré.

Abstract: A turbine generating apparatus includes a control unit which controls the turbine generating apparatus as follows. During a system connection running mode, a fuel is fed to the gas turbine at a fuel flow rate corresponding to a preset load. The converter prepares a pseudo-system in which a frequency conforms to a set rotational speed of the gas turbine at the preset load, and converts an output of the generator to a direct current in a state that a number of revolutions of the gas turbine is specified by operating the generator synchronously with the pseudo-system. A power to be taken out is controlled depending on a magnitude of a turbine output. The inverter converts a DC voltage output from the converter to an AC voltage by a pulse width modulation at a system voltage and a system frequency so as to keep the DC voltage output from the converter at a predetermined voltage.

element allows a person to grasp and manipulate the handle while accessing the inlet port
to aspirate fluid through it. The device is also effective to facilitate penetrating of the
device into bone due to the configuration of the distal penetrating tip. The device is
particularly suitable for use as a bone marrow aspiration device.

Abstract: A universal setting tool for disposition within a
rotary drive tool comprises a stub shaft potion (114)
mounted upon a first end of a collet housing (112) to be
mounted within a chuck mechanism of the rotary drive tool,
and an axially oriented stepped bore (126) extending into
the interior of the collet housing from the opposite end
thereof. A coil spring (132) is disposed within the stepped
bore, and one end (138) of the coil spring is staked or
secured upon the collet housing. The coil spring
effectively defines an axially oriented expansible and
contractible tubular member into which a free end portion
of a rebar or threaded rod anchor member (158) can be
inserted. In this manner, when the rotary drive tool, and
therefore the collet housing member, are rotated in the
clockwise direction, this causes a radial contraction of
the tubular spring member. Continued rotation of the collet
housing member causes a drive connection with the rebar or
threaded rot anchor member. Rotation of the rotary drive
tool in the opposite direction release the grip of the
spring member upon the anchor.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif d'antenne comprenant au moins deux éléments d'antenne omnidirectionnels radiants actifs ou principaux disposés en fonction d'au moins un élément d'antenne passif ou de commande de faisceau utilisé comme réflecteur. Cet élément d'antenne de commande de faisceau peut présenter plusieurs éléments de réactance qui peuvent le terminer sur le plan électrique afin d'adapter les diagrammes de faisceau d'entrée ou de sortie produits par la combinaison des éléments d'antenne actifs et les éléments d'antenne de commande de faisceau. Plus spécifiquement, les éléments d'antenne de commande de faisceau peuvent être couplés à différentes réactances de terminaison de manière à modifier les caractéristiques du faisceau, telles que la directivité et la largeur de bande angulaire. Un traitement peut être employé pour sélectionner quelle réactance de terminaison utiliser. Par conséquent, le diagramme de rayonnement de l'antenne peut être facilement dirigé vers un récepteur/émetteur cible spécifique, diminuer les niveaux d'interférence signal/bruit, et/ou augmenter le gain par utilisation d'une fréquence radio (RF), d'une fréquence intermédiaire (IF) ou d'un traitement de bande de base. Une technique de traitement à entrées multiples, à sorties multiples (MIMO) peut être utilisée pour faire fonctionner le dispositif d'antenne avec des diagrammes de faisceau simultanés.
