Patent EP-0820859-A2 (EP)
IPC: B30B9/10
Filed: 1992-11-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for compacting material in
which the apparatus includes a path (10), an infeed device (40) which
discharges in an opening (11) disposed in the path, and a spiral (30)
rotary about its longitudinal axis and lacking a mechanical shaft. In
connection with the discharge opening (12) of the apparatus, baffle
means (13) are provided which impede displacement of the material.
Between the free end (39) of the spiral and the discharge opening (12)
of the apparatus, the path forms a compaction cell (15). The spiral is
disposed to at least intermittently abut against the path, in addition
to which the spiral and the path form in the region of the opening (11)
a feed compartment (35) for supplied material, this compartment directly
merging into the compaction cell (15). The path (10) is provided with
drainage apertures (14).

Abstract: An object of the invention is to enable a reply to a
facsimile-transmitted original to be automatically reminded
of every predetermined period of time in a facsimile apparatus
having a memory transmission function. When facsimile
transmission to a facsimile apparatus stored as being
necessarily reminded of a reply is performed, the facsimile
apparatus having a memory transmission function stores image
data transmitted as data used for reminding the stored facsimile
apparatus of the receiving side of a reply, in an image data
storing section (5), and stores the telephone number and called
subscriber identification number of the stored facsimile
apparatus, the time of the transmission to the stroed facsimile
apparatus, the expected time of reception, the number of
retransmissions and the address number of the image, in a
transmission data storing section (7). When there is a
facsimile transmission from the stored facsimile apparatus,
the data used for reminding the stored facsimile apparatus of
a reply is erased. In the case of no reply from the stored
facsimile apparatus, when it is determined that any of the
expected times of reception stored in the transmission data
storing section (7) is beyond the present time, a main control
section (11) performs dialing based on the telephone number
corresponding to the expected time of reception and transmits
the image data corresponding to the telephone number.

Abstract: A rotary valve assembly (C) which includes of a pair of valve parts (6, 8) with flat faces
(14, 18) which, when pressed together and rotated, provide valving action between
various ports incorporated in one of the valve parts. The first valve part (6) contains
two circular arrays of through openings (20a, 20b, 22a, 22b), each of which is
connected to a conduit. The second valve part (8) contains several passages (34, 44,

and valve ports (58, 60, 62) located in the second valve part (8). The second valve
part (8) also contains one or more passages (28) which provide communication
between members of one array of openings. The valve assembly (C) can be
effectively used to automate operation of a gas or liquid adsorption system comprising
two or more adsorption vessels (A, B), the number of vessels being equivalent to the
total number of openings in either array. Use of the valve assembly (C) in an

Abstract: A keyless control system is disclosed which may be
employed to gain entry to a motor vehicle and start an engine.
When using this system, a user activates a remote control by
selecting a function for the motor vehicle to perform. In
response, a challenge number is exchanged and used in an
encryption algorithm by both the remote control and a control
circuit in the motor vehicle to produce independently of
each other separate algorithm answers. A first verification
indication is produced when the control circuit finds both
answers to be the same. The remote control also sends its
unique remote control identification and a designation of the
selected function to the control circuit. If the received
remote control identification matches is on an authorized
remote control list stored in the control circuit, a second
verification indication is produced. When both the first and
second verification indications are produced, the control
circuit issues a signal that causes the motor vehicle to
perform the selected function.

Abstract: The present invention provides a laser tracking system including a
laser generator (22) for generating a beam of laser energy (T), a beam steerer (24) for
steering the beam of laser energy (T) such that it moves in a search pattern, and a
receiving device (16) that receives laser energy (R) reflected from a targeted object (11)
and that causes the beam steerer (24) to vary the search pattern in response to the
reflected laser energy (R). A tracking method associated with the laser tracking
system includes the steps of generating a beam of laser energy (T), steering the
beam of laser energy in a search pattern, detecting a hit spot (12) formed from laser
energy being reflected from a targeted object (11), diminishing the size of the
search pattern in response to the detection of the hit spot (12), and focusing the
diminished search pattern on a feature of the targeted object (11) corresponding to
the hit spot (12). The laser tracking system and associated method presented
provide a number of advantages over conventional tracking systems. The
laser tracking system employs closed loop methodologies allowing the system
to accurately track targeted objects using continuously updated tracking data.
The laser tracking system is able to seek and lock on to vulnerable features of
potential targets. Further, the laser tracking system is able to maintain a
desired aim point indefinitely and without operator intervention. This aim point
maintenance allows an associated weapon to disable a target, despite any
relative tracker-target motion during the munitions launch and flight.

Abstract: A telephone line interface circuit with d.c. amplifiers (12) coupled to tip and ring
paths is protected against transient voltages by a crowbar-type protection device (52)
coupled via a diode bridge (28, 30) to the tip and ring paths, positive and negative
terminals of the diode bridge being connected respectively to ground and via a diode
(54) to a negative supply voltage line for the amplifiers. The diode prevents discharge
of a capacitor (26), coupled between the negative supply voltage line and ground,
through the protection device when it conducts. A locked up state, in which the
amplifiers maintain holding current to the protection device after a transient voltage, is
avoided by further diodes (56, 58) coupled from the negative terminal of the diode
bridge to inputs of the amplifiers, or by controlling a current limiter (34) to interrupt
current to the capacitor when the diode is reverse biased, so that the capacitor
discharges. The current limiter includes a resistance (38) and inductance (40) in series
for sensing current, whereby initial charging current for the capacitor is reduced on
closing of relay contacts (K1, K2) in series with the current limiter, and relay contact
deterioration is avoided.
