Abstract: A fuel metering control system for an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders. The system includes an air/fuel ratio sensor and engine operating condition detecting means for detecting engine operating conditions. The basic quantity of fuel injection is determined by retrieving mapped data according to the engine speed and engine load. A controller is provided to calculate a feedback correction coefficient to correct the quantity of basic fuel injection such that variance between individual cylinder air/fuel ratios is decreased. The quantity of fuel injection is further corrected by a fuel adhered to an intake manifold wall.

Abstract: A releasable locking connector wherein the terminals are
locked in place by a retainer which has an engagement position and
a release position. In the former, a portion of the retainer bears
against the rear of the terminals so that they cannot be removed.
Also, a lance is provided on the terminals which bears against a

retainer is in the engagement position, a closure thereon overlies
the tool opening, thereby preventing entry of unwanted foreign
material.

Abstract: Automotive emblem lighting assemblies, and methods for making them, comprise in one embodiment a bezel with a transparent/translucent lens mounted thereon. A junction exists at the lens/bezel interface. Viscous curable material is dispensed upon the lens rear and bezel. Prior to such dispensing a sealer can be applied over the said junction to prevent seepage. Gas bubbles within the viscous curable material are removed. A housing is pressed into the viscous curable material to bond therewith, and with the bezel/lens. The curable material is cured to sufficiently harden, and seals the assembly. A light source is mounted so that light can shine trough the lens. The lens can have an emblem shaped recess or recesses. Part of the lens rear can be coated with substantially opaque material. A reflective-transmissive material coats at least part of the lens rear to allow light transmission from the light source and reflect exterior light. A diffusing agent can be mixed with the viscous curable material, or light diffusion can be provided by reflective surface on the light source, or the lens can have a layer of diffusing material. Modifications can employ a lens with no substantially opaque coating, with an emblem shaped lens and reflective-transmissive material on the lens rear, and no bezel. The lens and housing can be shaped to interfit with each other, with the cured material sealing the lens/housing junction. The lens rear can be curved or even. Another modification can have a lens and housing which do not interfit. Sealer can be dispensed over the lens perimeter, and a housing placed thereagainst so that viscous curable material can be dispensed through the housing opening to cover the lens and bond it to the housing. Another embodiment has a lens with sealer dispensed about its perimeter and viscous curable material dispensed therein, with a light source such as a light emitting diode or and electroluminescent pad bonded thereagainst. In the various embodiments the viscous curable material when cured seals the assembly to impede contaminants and moisture form entering the assembly interior to protect the assembly, and covers the lens rear to protect lens coatings and enhance visual effects of the emblem, while bonding components together.

Abstract: A digital switching power amplifier with Multivariable Enhanced Cascade Controlled (MECC) includes a modulator, a switching power stage and a low pass filter. In the first preferred embodiment an enhanced cascade control structure local to the switching power stage is added, characterised by having a single local feedback path A (7) with a lowpass characteristic and local forward blocks B1 or B (3, 4). The leads to a much improved system with a very low sensitivity to errors in the switching power stage. In the second preferred embodiment of the invention the control structure is extended with a global structure composed of a single feed-back path C (8) and forward paths blocks D1 or D (1, 2). This provides further improvements and a very low sensitivity to load variations and filter errors. Both MECC embodiments are characterised by being simple in implementation, stable and extendible by adding/removing simple local (3) or global (1) forward path blocks. A third embodiment of the invention is a controlled self-oscillating pulse modulator, characterised by first a non-hysteresis comparator as modulator and second by a higher order oscillating loop realised in both forward path B1 and feedback path A to determine stable self-oscillating conditions. An implemented 250W example MECC digital power amplifier has proven superior performance in terms of audio performance (0.005 % distortion, 115 dB dynamic range) and efficiency (92 %).

Abstract: In three-dimensional graphics rendering, a method of texture mapping, or
shading, applies to triangle-based graphical objects having undergone a perspective
transformation. The present invention makes use of linear interpolation for determining
the appropriate mapping for the interior points of each triangle, thus reducing the
computation-intensive mathematical calculations otherwise required. In order to
minimize visual artifacts due to high interpolation errors, the borders of each triangle are
tested against a predetermined threshold, and the triangle subdivided if any of the
borders contain a maximum error which exceeds the threshold. The subdivision
continues until all triangle sides have maximum errors that are less than the threshold
value. Linear interpolation is then used to determine all mappings for the sides and
interior points of the triangle. In alternative embodiments, the triangle is subdivided
without using recursive methods. In one non-recursive method, the entire triangle is
subdivided uniformly based on the necessary number of segments into which the
triangle sides must be broken to keep the maximum error below the threshold. In
another non-recursive method,  w -isosceles triangles are subdivided into trapezoids,
each of which is then subdivided into  w -isosceles, and mostly geometrically isosceles,
triangles.

Abstract: A color-sorting machine for granular materials

grains by color. An optical detection unit (21; 230) to
this end comprises a condenser lens (9; 90), a plurality

120c) corresponding to the filters and can detect a
plurality of wavelengths. The light-receiving sensors (12A,
13B; 120a, 120b, 120c) lie side by side on the same plane,
are formed in a unit body, require no positioning adjustment
among the light-receiving sensors, and make it possible

path diffraction surfaces (11a, 11b; 110a, 110b, 110c) of
the same number as the light-receiving sensors, so that
the light-receiving sensors receive light of the same

light partition plates (15; 150a, 150b) are provided
between adjacent light path diffraction surfaces of the
prism and between the corresponding adjacent light-receiving
sensors to improve the precision of optical detection.
