Title: Regulation of a setting element
Inventor: BARBEHOEN KAI-LARS
IPC: F02D35/00
Filed: 1998-02-20
Abstract: The position of a setting element 115 with integral behaviour, such as for an injection adjusting device (100, Fig 1) of an engine fuel pump, is regulated based on the deviation SBD between an actual value from sensor 142 and a desired value from target presetting device 132. The signal is processed and converted to an output signal AR by regulator and drive control characteristic field 210. Influencing this signal is a control value AN, based on parameters such as temperature and engine speed from sensors 144, 146, this signal controlling the integral behaviour of the setting element which tends to change its position when the deviation SBD is zero. Signal AN itself can be corrected to compensate for component ageing and tolerances, by signal AK which is derived from an integral component 230. Signal AK remains at a steady state, unless regulating deviation SBD occurs below a threshold at which switch 235 is operated, whereupon sianal SBD determines signal AK.

Title: Indexing method
Inventor: POZNANSKI VICTOR
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1998-06-02
Abstract: In order to form an index for a plurality of documents, each of the words or collocations are identified (24,25) and applied to a multilingual resource (11) or a thesaurus (12). Linguistically related but different terms, such as translation into a different language or synonyms from a thesaurus, are generated (28). These equivalent terms are ordered (32) in accordance with the likelihood of being correct or appropriate based on information contained in the multilingual resource (11) or thesaurus (12). Each of the words or collocations in the documents and each of the most likely equivalent terms is then formed into an indexing feature by appending an identifier for the or each document in which it occurs (34). This provides an index which may be used to locate documents using terms contained in the document but also using derived terms such as translations into a different natural language and synonyms.

Title: Method for storing and forwarding short messages to mobile subscribers in a cellular communications system
Inventor: WILLARS PER HANS AKE
IPC: H04M3/533
Filed: 1997-07-04
Abstract: A method and apparatus for transferring a short message between an originating mobile station (12) and the short message service center (29) permanently associated with the destination mobile station is disclosed. The originating mobile station (12) sends the short message (including the address of the destination mobile station) to the mobile network over an air interface. The mobile network transfers the short message internally between switching nodes. One of the switching nodes (18) interrogates a subscriber database (20), and passes the mobile station's address to the database (20), as well as information showing that this is a short message submitted from a mobile station. The database (20) checks to determine if the destination mobile station is short message service capable. If not, the short message is terminated. Otherwise, the database (20) returns the address of the short message service center (24) permanently associated with the destination mobile station. The short message is transferred through the mobile network to that short message service center (24).

Title: Diversity control
Inventor: ICHIKAWA TAKEHIRO
IPC: H04B7/04
Filed: 1999-12-24
Abstract: Two antennas 2,3 are used for transmitting and receiving data. Reception levels are periodically obtained from the two antennas and are stored in a memory unit 6. Average reception levels are calculated for the two antennas using a number of the periodically measured reception levels. A system control unit 5 and antenna control unit 4 control the operation of the two antennas on the basis of the average levels. In dependance of the average values, both antennas may be used in diversity operation or the antenna with the strongest reception may be used on its own. A decision may be made on the basis of the speed of a mobile communication apparatus whether to perform diversity reception using both antennas at high speed, or to use the antenna with highest average reception level when travelling at a low speed.

Title: Process for adjusting the moisture content of tobacco
Inventor: FISCHER EUGENE B
IPC: A23L19/00
Filed: 1993-10-29
Abstract: A process for reordering tobacco, which results in no significant decrease in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation, is provided. Tobacco to be reordered is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the ov content of the tobacco increases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is increased to affect reordering of the tobacco. Also provided is a process for drying tobacco, which results in no significant change in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation. Tobacco to be dried is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near or below the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the OV content of the tobacco decreases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is decreased to affect drying of the tobacco. It has been found that tobacco can be reordered or dried successfully in a continuous manner using a self-stacking spiral conveyor. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for manufacturing a gelatin coated product
Inventor: BERTA NORBERT I
IPC: A61J3/06
Filed: 1994-01-12
Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for coating product (10) with two colors which includes a first coating section, a second coating section and a means for transferring products from the first to the second sections. The first section includes a feeding (80) and loading station for depositing products onto product holders (30) retained in product carrier plates (50,50'). The products are advanced to a first dipping station in which a vacuum chamber (60) having the plurality of vacuum tubes (100) engages a plate and inverts and dips the products to coat a first portion of the product. The plates are then advanced to a first rotating station where another vacuum chamber and vacuum tube device engages the plates and rotates the plates one revolution for spreading the coating over that first portion. The plates are advanced to an elevator where they are raised incrementally to a dryer (130) that extends over the first section of the coating apparatus. The plates are transferred into the dryer where they traverse through the dryer in a controlled manner for curing the coating applied to the first portion. The plates are transferred to a down elevator and returned to the conveyor where they are advanced to a side to side transfer apparatus. The transfer apparatus transfers the products to the second section of the coating apparatus in such a manner to expose on carrier plates the uncoated portion of the products. The plates are then advanced to identical dipping and rotating stations as in the first section and then transferred by an elevator up to a second dryer located above the conveyor in the second section. The plates traverse the second dryer and are returned to the second conveyor by a down elevator where the plates are advanced to an unloading and discharge apparatus. The empty plates are then advanced to the side to side transfer where they are recycled for future use in the apparatus. <IMAGE>
