Inventor: OTA MASAKI
IPC: F04B27/10
Filed: 2000-05-11
Abstract: An improved variable displacement compressor has a drive
shaft (16) extending through a crank chamber. A lug plate
(19) is integrally fixed to the drive shaft (16). A drive
plate (20) is connected to and driven by the lug plate (19)
by a hinge mechanism (21). The drive plate (20) inclines
with respect to the drive shaft (16) to vary the
displacement of the compressor. The hinge mechanism (21) has
a linear guide (19) on the lug plate (19) and a pin (34)
projecting from the drive plate (20) toward the lug plate
(19). A bearing surface (36a) engages the pin (34). The pin
(34) has an axis (AXp) that intersects an axis (Axg) of the
guide (19) . The axis (AXp) of the pin (34) is parallel to
the axis (AXd) of the drive shaft (20) when the compressor
operates with a maximum load.

IPC: B60L3/10
Filed: 2000-12-12
Abstract: Bekannten Verfahren zum Schleuder- und Gleitschutz sowie zur
maximalen Haftwertausnutzung der Antriebe von Schienenfahrzeugen
ist gemeinsam, daß das Haftwertmaximum erst überfahren
wird, ehe eine Reduzierung des Momentensollwertes am Antrieb
bewirkt wird, was eine große Belastung für die Antriebssysteme
darstellt. 
     Nach dem Verfahren wird der aktuelle Drehmoment-Istwert jedes
Antriebsmotors bestimmt, diese Drehmoment-Istwerte werden
miteinander verglichen und bei Überschreiten der Drehmoment-Istwertdifferenz
zweier Antriebsmotoren des Gruppenantriebes
über einen vorbestimmten Wert wird der Drehmoment-Sollwert
für den Gruppenantrieb auf den aktuell erreichten Istwert des
Gesamtdrehmoments des Gruppenantriebs begrenzt. 
     Das Verfahren ist für alle Schienenfahrzeuge mit elektrischem
Gruppenantrieb einsetzbar.

Abstract: There is disclosed an ink jet recording apparatus in which temperature of a recording head is detected at a timing adapted for an actual recording operation, and temperature correction is performed on the basis of a detection result, so that the recording head can be driven on optimum drive conditions. The ink jet recording apparatus of the present invention has a detection timing controller. On the basis of detection judgment results of a cut sheet detection sensor and a continuous sheet detection sensor, the detection timing controller allows a temperature sensor to detect the temperature of the recording head by each page when a recording medium is a cut sheet, and allows the temperature sensor to detect the temperature of the recording head by every predetermined number of raster, which is, for example, a raster unit treated as one page after sheet cutting when the recording medium is a continuous sheet.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: In an image forming apparatus, a latent image
is formed on a rotatable photosensitive body (1)
and treated with a liquid developer (6) containing
a carrier solution and toner particles, whereupon
a visible image is formed on the body. The visible
image is transferred from the photosensitive body to
a record medium (11) through the intermediation of
an intermediate transfer body (9). The transfer
body has a surface that serves as a transfer medium.
As the transfer medium is pressed against the body
in a transfer position (PT), the visible image is
transferred from the photosensitive body to the
transfer medium. At least one of the respective
surface temperatures of the photosensitive body (1)
and the transfer medium (9) is controlled such that
T1 ≦ Tg < T2 is fulfilled where T1 and T2 are the
surface temperatures of the photosensitive body and
the transfer medium in the transfer position (PT),
respectively, and Tg is the glass transition point of
the toner particles, and that the complex coefficient
of viscosity of the toner particles at the temperature
T2 is at 10,000 poises or more.

Abstract: The invention relates to a weighing method and arrangement. More specifically, the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for making measurement results reliable in weighing appliances. In addition, the invention relates to a condition monitoring method and arrangement for a weighing apparatus. The weighing method of the invention comprises measuring a kinetic weight by means of weighing sensors (110), measuring the weighing sensor for its vertical component of acceleration and/or vertical angle by means of acceleration sensors (120), delivering the measurement results in a serial communication mode to a data processing unit, and finally, calculating a static weight (140). The present inventive method and arrangement can be used for reducing the error factors caused by acceleration for a measurement which is improved in terms of its reliability and speed. The calibration values for settings of the sensors are stored in a recording instrument preferably included in the same measuring apparatus as the sensors, the discussed measuring apparatus being replaceable without special calibration procedures. The invention is particularly suitable for scales dealing with cranes, loaders and carriers.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: An accounting system and method are incorporated into a data
communication network conducted by a information provider which includes
a central computer for data communication with a user computer.
Download data, such as route guidance data, is transmitted from the central
computer of the information provider to the user computer, whereas the
upload data which is available to enrich a database in the central computer
is transmitted from the user computer to the central computer. The central
computer determines accounts payable by the user in accordance with
content and/or volume of the download data. It also determines a reward
for the user in accordance with content and/or volume of the upload data.
An amount that is a balance obtained by subtracting the reward from the
accounts payable is charged to the user. Therefore, the more the upload
data sent by the user to the central computer and the more it is utilized, the
more the user's expense for the service provided by the information provider
is reduced.

virtual path handlers (VPHs); a plurality of virtual
channel handlers (VCHs); trunks (3); and a control
unit (5). The control unit issues an OAM (operation

out a loop back control to at least one of the virtual
path handler, the virtual channel handler, and the
trunk, which are associated with the specific OAM cell
handler, as an object unit in response to the OAM cell
send instruction. Also, when the specific OAM cell
handler sends out an OAM cell from the specific OAM
cell handler to the object unit in response to the OAM
cell send instruction, the control unit determines a
fault position based on returning or non-returning of
the OAM cell from the object unit to the specific OAM

Abstract: A vibration isolator wherein an inner and an outer cylindrical fittings are
connected by a rubber elastomer between both fittings; in the rubber
elastomer above and below the inner cylindrical fitting, hollow spaces are
formed circumferentially in a larger width, in a cross-section square to the
axial direction, than an outside diameter of the inner cylindrical fitting, and
lateral portions as support arms of the rubber elastomer between the hollow
spaces support the inner cylindrical fitting to the outer cylindrical fitting. In
order to lower the dynamic spring rate in the lateral direction square to the
axial direction and facilitate the tuning of rigidity, without changing the
vibration-isolating characteristics in the vertical direction and without
deteriorating the durability, it is characterized in that small vacancies are
provided in the lateral portions at a distant position inboard from the outer
cylindrical fitting.
