Title: Umdrehungszähler zum Ermitteln einer Umdrehungszahl eines um eine Drehachse drehbaren Drehelements
Inventor: SIESS RAINER
IPC: G01P3/486
Filed: 2002-10-04
Abstract: Ein einziger Sensor (4) tastet ein Drehelement (1) ab. In jeder
Drehstellung des Drehelements (1) ist dabei anhand des
Rohsignals (S) des Sensors (4) eindeutig eine von mindestens
drei Winkelbereichsgruppen (I, II, III) ermittelbar. Zwei
Winkelbereichsgruppen (I, III) weisen je einen einzigen zusammenhängenden
Winkelbereich (I, III) auf, die anderen Winkelbereichsgruppen
(II) je zwei in sich zusammenhängende,
voneinander getrennte Winkelbereiche (IIa, IIb). Von einem
Energieerzeugungssystem (6) werden bei einer Drehbewegung unterhalb
einer Minimaldrehzahl zwangsweise Energiepulse abgegeben,
so dass jeweils mindestens ein Rohsignal (S) erfassbar
und die korrespondierende Winkelbereichsgruppe (I, II, III)
ermittelbar ist. Das Energieerzeugungssystem (6) und das
Drehelement (1) sind derart miteinander gekoppelt, dass für
mindestens einen Teil der so ermittelten Winkelbereichsgruppen
(I, II, III) der Winkelbereich (I, IIa, IIb, III) ermittelbar
ist und anhand der ermittelbaren Winkelbereiche (I,

Abstract: The invention relates to a rubber composition which contains
starch/plasticizer composite, precipitated silica and carbon black reinforcement
together with a coupling agent wherein the coupling agent is an organosilane
polysulfide having an average of from 2 to 2.6 connecting sulfur atoms in its
polysulfidic bridge. The invention provides for a chemical reaction between a
coupling agent and silica which is substantially decoupled from a reaction
between a coupling agent and starch/plasticizer to form a filler reinforcement
network in situ within the elastomer host followed by a subsequent phase
mixing of the carbon black therewith. The invention further relates to the
resulting rubber composition and articles of manufacture, including tires, having
at least one component comprised of said rubber composition.

Abstract: An electronically controlled magnetorheological
fluid based fan drive assembly 60 used to increase the
rotational speed of a coupled radiator cooling fan.
Introducing a magnetic field within a working chamber 99
between a drive ring 74 and an output member 86 increases
the viscosity of a magnetorheological fluid by changing
the state of the fluid from a free flowing liquid to a
semi-solid state. The shear rate of the
magnetorheological fluid can be increased to create
additional torque to drive the output member 86 and
coupled radiator fan at a higher rotational speed to cool
the engine coolant flowing through a closely coupled
radiator. The magnetic field is induced by directing a
flow of electrical current through an electronic coil 62
coupled within the fan drive assembly 60, and an
electronic control unit coupled to the electronic coil 62
controls the amount of electrical current flowing through
the coil 62. This maintains the temperature of the engine
block within an acceptable temperature range at a
particular engine speed.

Title: Piezoelectric transformer
Inventor: NAKATSUKA HIROSHI
IPC: H01L41/107
Filed: 2002-06-13
Abstract: A low loss, small scale piezoelectric transformer, suited for a cold cathode
tube load, and having a high effective coupling factor, is provided using a
piezoelectric plate having a single polarization direction. Controlling the
dimensions of the third electrode portion 15a constituting the high impedance
portion makes it possible easily to adjust the capacitance of the electrostatic
capacitor formed between the first electrode portion 12 and the third electrode
portion in accordance with the load. Also, the second electrode portion 13 and the
fourth electrode portion 15b constituting the low impedance portion are
substantially equal in area and the third electrode portion and the fourth electrode
portion are formed in one piece, so that energy propagation efficiency can be
increased. Consequently, the effective coupling factor resulting from the electrode
structure and the vibration mode can be kept high even if the capacitance is changed
freely, and thus high element efficiency and a small amount of generated heat can be
maintained and stress can be decreased.
