Patent EP-1201895-A3 (EP)
Inventor: DOW PAUL J
IPC: F02M19/00
Filed: 2001-10-31
Abstract: A carburetor with a valve assembly having a plastic cam body connected
to a plastic shaft which extends into the carburetor body and a valve head press-fit into
a slot formed through the plastic shaft. Desirably, the valve assembly eliminates the
use of threaded fasteners and the need to swage or otherwise deform any of the
components to connect them together. Desirably, the shaft and cam body are
constructed and arranged to prevent relative rotation between them. This permits
accurate location of the cam body on the shaft and facilitates calibration of the throttle
valve assembly between its idle and wide open throttle positions. Further, the
characteristics of the throttle valve assembly can be changed by simply providing a
cam body having a different shape or construction with the shaft and/or valve disc
being the same for a wide range of carburetors. The slot in the shaft is preferably
longer than the diameter of the valve disc so that the valve disc may shift axially
relative to the shaft so that it is self-centering within the fuel and air mixing passage.
The valve disc can preferably also shift laterally relative to the shaft. This greatly
facilitates assembly and manufacture of the throttle valve assembly by greatly
increasing the tolerances with respect to the location of the valve disc on the valve
shaft and of the slot.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are presented for producing carbon black on a substrate. One preferred method includes providing a head assembly including a nozzle, the nozzle including a first injector for injecting a gas such as acetylene, and a second injector for injecting a mixture of a fuel and an oxidant to produce a pilot flame. The head assembly is indexed over a substrate on which is to be deposited carbon black. The acetylene is injected through the first injector, then through a pilot flame emitted from one or more second injectors, and finally toward a substrate to be coated with carbon black, but only when a deposit of carbon black is desired. The method includes ceasing the flow of acetylene, indexing the head assembly away from the substrate on which was just deposited the carbon black after a carbon black deposition sequence, and ceasing fuel gas and oxidant gas flows through the second injector. Just before the next carbon black deposition is required, the fuel and oxidant are initiated and ignited with an ignition source and accompanying automatic electronic ignition, thus recreating the pilot flame(s). Indexing the head assembly toward a surface to be coated with carbon black, and initiating a flow of acetylene when a layer of carbon black is desired, completes a cycle.

Abstract: A skew of an optical pickup device can be adjusted by a movable-side
member itself which holds thereon an objective lens. A holder (33) which holds
an objective lens (32) is supported by four spring wires (43) such that it can be
moved in the focusing direction and the tracking direction of an optical disk. A
center of a magnetic circuit (M) which drives the holder (33) is shifted in the outer
peripheral side relative to the optical disk. Elastic force of the spring wires of the
inner peripheral side is suppressed by increasing the amount of a gel material (72)
bonded to the spring wires located on the inner peripheral side of the optical disk
as a damping material as compared with the amount of the gel material (72)
bonded to the spring wires located on the outer peripheral side. Thus, the holder
(33) can be driven by a predetermined inclination in the focusing direction such
that the optical axis of the objective lens becomes substantially perpendicular to
the signal recording surface of the optical disk in response to the focus height
changed due to the skew of the optical disk.

voice communication to be changed by a common operation
independently of diverse network configurations. 
     A first network monitors the communication situation

of a first terminal, and determines an appropriate coding mode
based on the communication situation. In addition, the first
network sends to the first terminal a first request for change
to the appropriate coding mode. Upon reception of the first
request, the first terminal sends a second request for change
of the coding mode to a second network. Upon reception of the
second request, the second network changes the coding mode of
the voice codec given to a second terminal engaged in voice
communication with the first terminal, and sends back to the
first terminal a response to the second request. The first
terminal, which receives the response to the second request,
sends back to the first network a response to the first request.

Abstract: A switch comprises voltage applying means for providing
direct current potentials to first to third beams arranged with
a spacing slightly distant one from another, and electrodes
for inputting/outputting signals to/from the beams. By
controlling the direct current potential provided to the beam,
an electrostatic force is caused to thereby change the beam
positions and change a capacitance between the beams. By
causing an electrostatic force between the first and second
beams and moving the both beams, the first and second beams
can be electrically coupled together at high speed. Also, an
electrostatic force is caused on the third beam arranged facing
to the first and second beams, to previously place it close
to the first and second beams. When the electrostatic force
is released from between the first and second beams, the second
beam moves toward the third beam thereby releasing the first
and second beams of an electric coupling.
