Abstract: The invention concerns a method for electric diagnosis of an oxygen sensor of an internal combustion engine functioning on several richness values and in particular on a lean burn, characterised in that it consists in the following steps: monitoring the functioning of the engine and when predetermined functioning conditions are observed in which the richness of the carburetted mixture remains different from the stoichiometry for a sufficient time interval, measuring the voltage level of the signal emitted by said oxygen sensor; comparing this voltage value to a polarisation value and deducing therefrom if said voltage value is substantially equal to the polarisation voltage the existence of a fault in the electric connection of the sensor, or otherwise the absence of fault in the sensor electric connection.

Abstract: An apparatus (30) and a method for providing an
output signal (28) indicative of a vehicle operating
parameter. Preferably, the operating parameter is lateral
acceleration of the vehicle. A lateral acceleration
sensor (36) senses lateral acceleration and provides a
first signal (38). A lateral acceleration estimator (40)
estimates lateral acceleration and provides a second
signal (42). The first signal (38) is passed through
filters (44, 46) to provide first signal portions

filters (48, 50). The first signal (38) and the filtered
second signal (42H) are provided to a fuzzy logic
controller (56) for analysis. The fuzzy logic controller
(56) provides two fuzzy variable values (K 1 , K 2 ) based upon
the analysis. The second signal portion (38H) and the
filtered second signal (42H) are multiplied by the fuzzy
variables, respectively. The results of the two
multiplications and the first signal portion (38L) are
summed together to provide the output signal (28).
Preferably, the apparatus (30) is part of an active roll
control suspension system (10) and the output signal (28)
is provided to a controller (24) for use in controlling
force to counteract the chassis roll force.

Abstract: The 3-phase supply enters the primary rectifier (4) through a series inductive filter (6). A smoothing capacitor (5) is connected across the DC output (VC), between rectifier and load (3). The secondary rectifier (7) is also connected to the incoming AC supply, as is a control unit (9), operating on the rectifier and an associated booster (8) to produce a compensatory current (IC) which is included in the total mains current. The rectifier is preferably thyristor-based. The booster includes an inductance (10) disposed in two windings (11, 12) placed in the positive and negative rectifier output connections. This is followed by a transistor-based (15) chopper circuit operated by the control unit. The booster output is connected in parallel, through non-return diodes (53, 54), with the primary rectifier output. The controller produces compensatory DC(ICC) and AC(IC) currents based on a current signal (IL) representative of the current drawn from the mains. A variant has a more elaborate filter and a two-stage chopper circuit, allowing lower rated transistors to be used.

Title: Systeme de gestion de fichiers a structure en boucle pour collecte post-occurrence de donnees d'evenements asynchrones
Inventor: LAWS RICHARD
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1998-03-30
Abstract: On considère ici un système d'exploitation comportant un système de gestion de fichiers permettant l'écriture de données dans un fichier dans une boucle logique de grappes d'emplacements mémoire. L'écriture peut se faire en boucle fermée ou ouverte, avec possibilité de passage d'un mode à l'autre. L'enregistrement avant l'occurrence d'un événement asynchrone se fait en mode boucle fermée. Après occurrence de l'événement asynchrone, les données recueillies dans la partie en boucle fermée sont fusionnées sans solution de continuité avec les données recueillies ultérieurement par manipulation par le système d'exploitation des pointeurs de grappes. Grâce à une telle structure générale de manipulation des fichiers dans le système informatique, on dispose de bien plus de place en mémoire pour l'enregistrement en boucle fermée. En fait, il est possible de recueillir plusieurs minutes de vidéo en qualité cinéma. En outre, étant donné que c'est le système de gestion des fichiers qui assure le stockage des données, il n'y a besoin d'aucune application spécifique pour mettre les données enregistrées sur un support physique d'enregistrement. Un tel système de gestion de fichier convient à toute application recueillant des données dans la perspective de saisir l'occurrence d'un événement asynchrone. Les applications considérées portent notamment sur l'enregistrement de films vidéo, la surveillance, la collecte de données de test, et d'autres types de systèmes qui ont besoin d'enregistrer des événements précédant une condition spécifique de 'déclenchement' aléatoire, lesquels événements peuvent nécessiter de grandes quantités de mémoire.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent article, which can be configured as a disposable diaper, a panty-type garment, or an adult incontinent product, includes a backsheet, an absorbent panel positioned on top of the backsheet, and a liquid permeable topsheet positioned on top of the absorbent panel. A pair of longitudinally extending, elasticized unitary leg gather assemblies are positioned on respective opposite sides of a longitudinal centerline of the article. Each leg gather assembly includes an outer sleeve having an upstanding portion within which are positioned at least two, and preferably at least three, elastically contractible elastic elements which effect conformance of the leg gather assemblies with a wearer for desired containment. A lowermost one of the elastic elements in each leg gather assembly exerts a relatively greater elastic gathering force than the other elastic elements to effect gathering of associated components of the article, thus enhancing fit. Apart from the leg gather assemblies, side marginal portions of the absorbent article are non-elasticized for enhanced aesthetics, and for facilitating efficient, high-speed manufacture.

Abstract: The toilet discharge system includes a valve with
a body (1) and a shutter member (2), and unblocking means
for the shutter member which act to displace the shutter
between the closing position and an auxiliary position and
to return it subsequently to the closing position. Advantageously,
the shutter member is a rotating element, and its
displacement takes place along the direction of its rotation
axis; the unblocking means can include a pneumatic system
which injects air into two chambers (6,7) defined between
the valve body (1) and the shutter member (2), on two
opposite sides of the latter. 
     The method consists in submitting the shutter
member of the valve to a cycle which includes a displacement
between the closing position and an auxiliary position, and
subsequent return to the closing position. 
     The shutter member is prevented from becoming
blocked, by avoiding formation of scale of lime and the
like, and lubrication and cleanliness of the valve are
improved.

Title: Method for searching for useable transmission frequencies for television and radio broadcasting systems
Inventor: SCHEINERT JOCHEN
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 1998-05-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining additional frequencies for radio broadcasting networks or similar. Using a constantly updated database of co-ordinated transmitters and a topology database, the inventive method optimises the quality of frequency planning, the necessary measurements, coverage plots etc.. The desired parameters for the new transmitter are inputted and every frequency in the chosen frequency range which fulfils the respective conditions for successful co-ordination is automatically determined by an information processing tool or an information processing device connected to the aforementioned databases. The method helps determine for example all the effects on the co-ordinated VHF broadcasting network, and tests the suitability of each frequency in an e.g. 100 kHz grid in the entire VHF band or in a partial range, according to the predetermined criteria. The method thus provides all the frequencies which can be co-ordinated in accordance with the predetermined conditions. The useable field strengths are determined and provided at the same time. The frequency planners then only need to test the frequencies given and optionally make a decision. The inventive method uses a more accurate allowance for the topography (diffraction models) in addition to the statistical propagation model, in order to increase accuracy.
