Patent EP-0846607-A3 (EP)
Inventor: STRONG DANIEL J
IPC: B62D5/083
Filed: 1997-12-09
Abstract: A hydraulic fluid control valve (18) for a power
steering gear (10) includes first and second relatively
rotatable valve members (60, 62) which direct hydraulic
fluid to flow between the valve members (60, 62) from inlet
ports (78) to return ports (108). The valve members (60,
62) define a plurality of orifices (110) that enlarge and a
plurality of orifices (110) that constrict upon relative
rotation of the valve members (60, 62). A pair of the
constricting orifices (110b, 110c) are located in parallel
between the inlet ports (78) and the return ports (108).
Those orifices (110b, 110c) begin to constrict at the same
time, and subsequently reach fully constricted conditions
at staggered times, upon relative rotation of the valve
members (60, 62) from neutral positions.

Abstract: An antenna for use at frequencies of 200MHz and upwards has a cylindrical ceramic core
(12) with a relative dielectric constant of at least 5, and pairs of helical elements (10A -
10D) extending from a feed point at one end of the core (12) to the rim (20U) of a
conductive sleeve (20) adjacent the other end of the core (12) the sleeve (20) acting as a
trap for isolating from ground currents circulating in the helical elements (10A - 10D).
To yield helical elements (10A - 10D) of different lengths, the sleeve rim (20U) follows
a locus which deviates from a plane perpendicular to the core axis in that it describes a
zig-zag path. The helical elements (10A - 10D) form simple helices with approximately
balanced radiation resistances.

Abstract: A data conversion apparatus is provided for reading
a document for a display screen and generating a display
image for another display screen which has a different aspect
ratio from the former display screen, where the document is
composed of control statements written along with character
strings or image information. The data conversion apparatus
obtains the document from an external unit and converts the
character strings and the image information in the document
into display image elements based on conversion information.
The data conversion apparatus judges whether a storage
includes a blank for storing the display image elements at an
appropriate position based on the conversion information.
The data conversion apparatus writes the display image
elements into the blank if it judges that the storing unit
includes the blank; the data conversion apparatus assigns a
new storage area in the storage and writes the display image
elements into the new storage area if it judges that the
storing unit does not include the blank.

Abstract: A medical fastening system for a modular knee prosthesis includes a femoral component
having an aperture. A washer having an aperture alignable with at least a portion of the
aperture in the femoral component engages the femoral component to inhibit movement of the
washer through the aperture in the femoral component. A bolt engages the washer and an

Abstract: A fiber bundle (100) in which one end of each of a
plurality of optical fibers, including cores (111a-111p),
are bundled as a bundled portion, the fiber
bundle includes in the bundled portion a clad (112a-112p)
having a refractive index less than that of each of the
cores and surrounding the cores so that the cores are
positioned near to each other with a minimum distance left
between two adjacent ones of the cores. The minimum
distance is decided so that transverse modes of laser beams
propagated through the above-mentioned two adjacent ones of
the cores do not affect each other. Typically, in the
fiber bundle, the other ends of the optical fibers are kept
separated as a separated portion without being bundled. In
this case, each of the cores may include a laser active
material which produces, when excited by an excitation beam
incident to the other ends of each of the optical fibers,
the laser beam propagated through each of the cores from
the other ends of each of the optical fibers to the one
