Title: Vacuum switch
Inventor: SHIOIRI TETSU
IPC: H01H33/66
Filed: 2001-02-08
Abstract: A third electrode (8A) is soldered, via a support
fitting (9) onto the inner surface of a support part (1a)
which projects into the intermediate part of the inner
surface of an insulation tube (1A). An arc generated
between the fixed-side contact (5A) and the movable-side
contact (5B) when the switch is opened is led from the outer
periphery of the fixed-side contact (5A) via the third
electrode (8A) to the movable-side contact (5B), in a so-called
two-point switch, and the dielectric breakdown
probability is thus reduced, particularly at low voltages. 
     The third electrode may have its outer periphery
exposed from the insulation tube and be used as one
electrode when conditioning is carried out. 
     By the use of this structure, the present invention is
capable of meeting the demands for environmental protection
and insulation reliability.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a
pneumatic tire (400) with improved tire uniformity. The
tire has a pair of beads (432a,432b) in bead portions and
at least one carcass ply (418) extending between the beads
and consisting of reinforcement cords (419) embedded in a
rubber matrix (836). The method is characterized by the
steps of: a) forming the rubber matrix of the carcass ply
or a portion of the bead portions from a matrix material
(such as a thermoplastic) that can be rendered plastic and
rendered non-plastic, which respectively permits and
restricts reorientation of the reinforcement cords, b)
rendering the matrix material plastic (such as by heating
the thermoplastic) before the tire begins to cure to permit
the one or more of the reinforcement cords to be free to
reorient themselves, and c) curing the tire in a tire mold
(354) while the matrix material remains plastic so that the
reinforcement cords remain free to reorient themselves
while curing.

Abstract: A digital broadcast recording/reproducing apparatus which is
able to determine the bit rate at the time of recording operation in
accordance with the bit rate of the recorded video data and audio
data, so that the bit rate at the time of reproducing operation is
reduced to be lower than the bit rate at the time of recording operation
is obtained. When reserving the reproduction bit rate, it prevents
taking a large band superfluously. The amount of records and
time for every picture, which are the coding unit of the video signal
of MPEG-2, are held at the time of recording operation, and the bit
rate for every picture is calculated from these data. The value
somewhat higher than the maximum is set up as the reproduction bit rate,
and it reproduces. By doing so,
the bit rate at the time of reproducing operation can be
decided in accordance with the bit rate of the recorded video and
audio signals, so that the bit rate at the time of reproducing
operation can be reduced to be lower than the bit rate of the TS at the
time of recording operation.

IPC: A61N1/37
Filed: 2001-01-17
Abstract: An improved system and method for performing autocapture /
autothreshold detection in an implantable cardiac stimulation device or any
device capable of stimulating some organ or tissue in the body. In some
existing systems, loss-of-capture and capture decisions are based upon
two consecutive cardiac events. However, such systems may be subject
to subthreshold stimulation pulses that capture and lose capture on
alternating pulses, trigeminy PVC sequences, or the like that require a
higher stimulation pulse amplitude but cannot make this determination
due to the two consecutive event requirement. Accordingly, in the
present invention, the determination of whether there is a loss-of-capture
is determined only according to paced events, i.e., ignoring intrinsic and
PVC beats. Furthermore, the loss-of-capture determination is based
upon X out of the last Y beats, where Y is greater than 2 and X is less
than Y. Accordingly, consecutive loss-of-capture events are no longer
required in determining the threshold level. In a further aspect, a
preferred embodiment monitors cardiac events to detect a sequence of
patterns that could indicate a trigeminy pattern and, if detected, the
pacing rate is increased to attempt to break the pattern and thus permit
the threshold level to be detected.

Abstract: An audible warning device e.g. for a fire alarm system is
arranged to generate an audible output signal having a first
frequency 1/T1 and comprises an audible output transducer 10
and a driver circuit 12 for applying an alternating drive
signal, having a second and higher frequency 1/T2, to the
transducer 10 over successive distinct periods, the frequency
of the periods being equal to the first frequency 1/T1. The
(second) frequency at which the transducer 10 is driven is at
or near the resonant frequency of the transducer 10. However,
the (second) frequency signal is only applied in successive
distinct periods at the (first) lower frequency and thus the
transducer appears to produce an audible output signal at this
lower frequency. 
     There is also disclosed a method of tuning the a
transducer to output an audible output signal at the (first)
lower frequency by determining the (second) frequency at which
the audible output of the transducer is high and driving the
transducer 10 with a drive signal at the determined (second)
frequency over successive distinct periods, the frequency of
the periods being equal to the desired (first) frequency.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un logiciel d'auteur comportant une interface graphique permettant la création interactive d'une présentation multimédia comprenant des supports temporels et non temporels. L'interface graphique permet de spécifier les relations temporelles et spatiales des médias et de reproduire la présentation avec les relations temporelles et spatiales spécifiées. Les relations temporelles et spatiales spécifiées des médias peuvent être modifiées indépendamment les unes des autres. La présentation peut être visualisée de manière interactive sous le contrôle de l'auteur pendant le processus de création sans recours à un codage des données audio et vidéo en un fichier de données médias en continu à des fins de combinaison avec d'autres médias, simulant ainsi le comportement d'un explorateur qui recevrait un fichier de données média en continu. Cette présentation multimédia peut comporter des éléments qui lancent la reproduction de la présentation depuis un point spécifié dans le temps. Une fois la création de la présentation achevée, le logiciel d'auteur contribue au codage et au transfert de la présentation à des fins de distribution. Les informations concernant le format et l'emplacement de distribution peuvent être stockés en tant que profils définis par l'utilisateur. La communication avec l'emplacement de distribution peut être testée et la présentation et les informations de distribution peuvent être vérifiées avant le codage et le transfert, afin de réduire les risques d'erreurs. Afin d'obtenir une présentation codée, une présentation est codée conformément aux relations temporelles et spatiales définies, au format de distribution et aux informations de distribution. Cette dernière et toute donnée de média de support sont transférées à l'emplacement de distribution, par exemple un serveur. Un serveur de médias en continu peut être utilisé pour des médias en continu, tandis que d'autres données peuvent être stockées sur un serveur de données classique. Des comptes peuvent être prévus pour un serveur de médias en continu afin de permettre aux auteurs de publier leurs présentations. Le logiciel d'auteur peut être associé à un service utilisant le serveur de médias en continu. Ce type de serveurs peut également constituer une source de séquences stockées à l'usage des auteurs.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficient hashing uses both an identifying portion of a data packet, e.g., source and destination ID, and an identifying value of the node, e.g., the IP address of the node, to generate a hash result. By inserting a unique value into the hash operation at each node, the invention effectively provides for a different hash implementation at each node. As a result, in situations where multiple paths or multiple links within a path are available to forward packets, traffic can be split over the multiple paths and links. Inefficient utilization of network links found in prior systems which use the same hash operation at each node are eliminated.
