Title: Automatic wireless service activation in a private local wireless system
Inventor: RICE CHRISTOPHER W
IPC: H04Q3/58
Filed: 2001-07-10
Abstract: Automatic activation (i.e., first time access) of digital wireless/cellular mobile telephones with a private/localized wireless/cellular system (i.e., a secondary system) occurs within an area having an overlapping macrocellular primary wireless communication system (i.e., a dominant system).

Abstract: A regeneration device of an exhaust gas purification filter that reduces the regeneration time of the filter. The regeneration device includes a plurality of first temperature detectors (26a, 26b) arranged in casings to detect the temperature in each casing and a second temperature detector (26a, 26b) for detecting the temperature of the exhaust gas. A processor (30) is connected to the first temperature detectors and the second temperature detector. The processor compares the temperature of the exhaust gas and the temperature of at least one of the casings, opens the associated switch valve based on the comparison result, and preheats at least one of the filters with the exhaust gas. The heat of the exhaust gas suddenly increases the temperature of the filter from the initial temperature and reduces the filter regeneration time.

Title: Operating circuit for a discharge lamp with frequency-variable ignition
Inventor: BUSSE OLAF
IPC: H05B41/285
Filed: 2003-02-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a novel operating circuit for a low-pressure gas discharge lamp 1 in the case of which a digital controller 12 is designed such that by gradually lowering the operating frequency in the ignition procedure it initiates shutdown operations of a safety shutdown device for excessive currents through a lamp inductor 1C in order thereafter to increase the operating frequency somewhat. It is possible overall in this way to achieve an ignition, for example by repeated pulsed ignition operations as far as shutdown operations, or else by a continuous ignition operation at a minimum frequency at which no shutdown operation occurs. The invention has the advantage of being insensitive to temperature fluctuations and component tolerances and, moreover, of permitting the lamp inductor 10 to have comparatively small dimensions.

Abstract: A multi-layer steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket includes a unitary stopper Layer interposed between mirror image beaded outer layers. A stopper ring situated about the boundary of a combustion opening on the stopper layer is formed by folding over the boundary edge of the, stopper layer material. The stopper ring pre-stresses the gasket interface about the combustion opening during securement of a cylinder head to an engine block. The stopper layer includes at least one raised epoxy bead structure, circumferentially and closely surrounding the outside edge of the stopper ring. The epoxy bead acts to spread load, and hence to avoid point loads at the combustion aperture boundary. The epoxy bead is applied to the gasket by screen-printing, and may incorporate a powdered metal for limiting bead resiliency.  The bead height is greater than the thickness of the stopper ring, to reduce risk of splitting the stopper layer material.
