Patent EP-0424095-A2 (EP)
Inventor: JENSEN JAN E B
IPC: G06F1/12
Filed: 1990-10-16
Abstract: A clocking control circuit for a computer system and method for receiving a microprocessor clock signal which drives a microprocessor and for supplying a support clock signal having a lower frequency. The support clock frequency drives support interface circuitry such as a peripheral controller, a CPU/memory controller, and a bus bridge interface, and thus causes the support interface circuitry to operate at a lower frequency than the microprocessor. The clocking control circuit ensures synchronization between the support clocking signal and the microprocessor clocking signal. The transmission of control signals between the microprocessor and support interface circuitry is controlled to ensure proper communications between the microprocessor and support circuitry.

Abstract: Reduced calorie food compositions are produced by replacing at least a portion of the fat content of a conventional food with an ester of polymerized C₁₈ unsaturated fatty acids. Said esters are at least partly hydrolyzed by the processes of intestinal digestion into simple alcohols and polybasic acids, which polybasic acids are of sufficient molecular weight that they are substantially not absorbed by the intestine, and are thus non-caloric. Additionally, the esters are altered by said intestinal digestion into an oil of high viscosity which avoids the laxative effect common to most low calorie oils.

Abstract: A process for coupling one or more different diazo components with resorcinol on an industrial scale is characterised in that the coupling pH of the initial resorcinol charge is adjusted and stabilised with the aid of a buffer system prior to the reaction and is kept at a constant value during the coupling reaction(s) by means of a flow rate ratio control system for the streams of the diazo component(s) and of the base. The process according to the invention makes it possible to prepare mono- and polyazo dyes in a high consistent quality and in high yield.

Abstract: This prosthesis is of the type comprising two elements articulated with respect to one another via a hinge pin (4), namely a femoral element (3) simulating the condyles of the femur and a tibial element simulating the tibial plateau, each of these elements (2, 3), on their face opposite the one directed towards the other element, being integral with an anchoring rod (22, 34) intended to be implanted, with or without cement, in the medullary canal of the corresponding bone. The means for connecting, to the tibial plateau (21), the support (23) of the hinge pin (4) consist of a shank (25) oriented radially to the axis of the bearing (24) and engaged in a well (26) formed in the tibial plateau. The shank (25) and the well (26) of the tibial plateau intended to receive it have a cross-section which is non-circular, and the tibial plateau (21) has, on its face in contact with the condyles (31), two undercuts (21e) which are of a shape complementing that of the sector encompassed by the condyles (31) and of which each one is intended to be engaged on the abovementioned sector of the condyle (31). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device transports bags between a filling station and a closing station. So that the filled bag (1) can be transferred in an exact orientation, the bag clamps (16) are arranged in a frame (7), of which the two end faces pointing in the direction of transport and the top side are open. The frame (7) is arranged so as to be capable of being raised and lowered on a carriage (9) movable between the filling station (2) and the closing station (4). The closing station (4) has an abutment (22), a closing jaw (23) movable towards the abutment (22) as well as a folding blade (20) mounted pivotably on one side. An upper edge-strip of the bag (1) is folded on to the front side of the bag (1) via the folding blade (20) and is adhesively bonded with the front side of the bag (1) in the clamping point between the abutment (22) and closing jaw (23). The clamping plane of the abutment (22) and closing jaw (23) is arranged essentially vertically. Furthermore, the folding blade (20) is pressed against the abutment (22, 22a), with a bag portion interposed. The closing jaw (23) grips the upper edge-strip of the bag (1) and folds it round on to the front side of the bag (1) via the folding blade (20). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The reaction is preferably an antibody-antigen reaction. On a base layer (2) there are test zones (21 to 25) which have capillary activity and are arranged side by side and form a liquid transport distance (30) along which a liquid flows, driven by capillary forces. During this, a specific detection reaction takes place and leads to a species characteristic for the required analysis, and this species is detected in a detection zone (26). In order to provide a test strip which is easy to handle and can be produced at low cost and has a start zone which needs to be only briefly immersed in the sample and then gradually releases the absorbed sample liquid in such a way that the successive zones which form the actual functioning region of the test strip are adequately and reproducibly supplied with liquid, it is proposed that the start zone (21) be composed of a non-swelling bonded fabric with a water-insoluble binder. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A current mode sample-and-hold circuit 46, includes a differential amplifier 20, having a non-inverting input coupled to a first leg of a current mirror 39, from which a first current 1 1  to be sampled is drawn. An inverting input of the differential amplifier 20, is coupled to its output and further coupled to a capacitor 36, through a sample hold switch 32. The first current 1 1  drawn from the first leg of the current mirror 39, causes the capacitor 36, to charge through the differential amplifier, when the switch 32 is closed. The charged capacitor is coupled to the current mirror and biases the current mirror so as to provide the required first current. Opening the sample hold switch 32 causes the capacitor 36 to maintain a bias level determined by the first current. The bias signal in turn causes a mirrored current l OUT  flowing in a second leg of the current mirror to be maintained, even in the absence of the first current. Thus an input current is sampled and a corresponding output current is provided. The capacitor operates in a feedback loop to improve accuracy. Furthermore, the capacitor is isolated from both the input and output providing high frequency capability.

Abstract: A video signal is coded by intraframe coding. The coded video signal is then decoded by intraframe/field decoding. While, a decoded local video signal is generated, which corresponds to a specific region in one frame of a video signal coded one frame prior to the video signal. A first motion signal is generated, which indicates motion of pictures in both the decoded video signal and the decoded local video signal. The motion signal is then subtracted from the video signal to generate a predictive error signal which is then coded by intraframe coding. The coded video signal and the coded predictive error signal are decoded by intraframe/field-decoding. A second motion signal is generated, which indicates motion of pictures in both the decoded video signal and a video signal decoded one frame prior to a video signal to be reproduced. The decoded predictive error signal and the second motion signal are added to each other to reproduce the video signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method in which a phase modulated or frequency modulated signal can be directly generated with a PLL frequency synthesizer. With an interpolating synthesizer it is possible to create a very dense output frequency (f x ) raster, so that the pulses received in the phase comparator (63) both from the reference signal (f o ) branch and from the voltage controlled oscillator VCO (65) are lengthened in lengthening means (62, 69; 67, 68; k₁, L+ΔL; k₂, L) by a desired amount. The numbers k₁ and k₂ are proportional to the amount of lengthening. When these integers now further are changed proportionally to the modulating signal, the change of the integers causes a change of the time difference of the pulses received by the phase comparator (63). This change of the time difference further causes a change in the output signal (f x ) of the voltage controlled oscillator. The method is particularly well suited to provide digital quadrature phase modulation QPSK or quadrature amplitude modulation QAM, in which the shift from one carrier phase to another has a predetermined size and waveform as a function of time.
