Patent EP-1392032-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MAEDA SATORU
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 2002-05-24
Abstract: The present invention provides a
transmission/reception apparatus capable of achieving
both a high processing speed and good extensibility in
performing communication protocol processes. Used for
transmitting data in accordance with a predetermined
communication protocol and receiving data transmitted in
accordance with the predetermined communication protocol,
the transmission/reception apparatus has a configuration
capable of executing communication protocol processes by
using hardware (in first and second communication-protocol-processing
units) and software (in first and
second control units). The hardware or the software can
be selected properly in accordance with the type of data.
For example, a communication protocol process for data
regarded as a heavy processing load can be carried out by
using the hardware at the high processing speed whereas a
communication protocol process for data regarded as a
light processing load can be carried out by using the
software, which offers the good extensibility.
Patent EP-1400031-A1 (EP)
Inventor: OLKKONEN MIKKO
IPC: H04W8/00
Filed: 2002-06-21
Abstract: When an ad hoc network is formed between short range wireless devices, at least one device assumes the role of an ad hoc network information provider for the new piconet. In this role, the device allocates a browsing hierarchy of service classes in its service registry. The service classes will provide a record to characterize the ad hoc network. When a new wireless device arrives within the communication range of any member of the ad hoc network, its inquiry signals are answered by the first member detecting the inquiry. If that first member is an ad hoc network information provider, it responds with information accessed from its service registry characterizing the ad hoc network. If, instead, an ordinary device in the ad hoc network is the first to respond to the inquiry signals of the arriving device, the device responds with the address of the ad hoc network information provider. The arriving device then pages the ad hoc network information provider to obtain information characterizing the ad hoc network.

Title: Silicone composition crosslinkable into elastomer by hydrosilylation, in the presence of carbene-based metal catalysts, and catalysts
Inventor: GEORGE CATHERINE
IPC: C07F15/00
Filed: 2002-06-03
Abstract: The invention concerns a silicone composition crosslinkable into elastomer by hydrosilylation, in the presence of carbene-based metal catalysts. The invention aims at providing a composition of that type, stable over long periods at room temperature (one day to several months), without loss of its characteristic of being heat-curable by hydrosilylation and without generating secondary isomerization or coloring reactions. The invention is characterised in that the composition comprises: a polyorganovinylsiloxane(polydimethyl)(methylvinyl) siloxane; a polyorganohydrogenosiloxane; a platinum catalyst formed by a complex of formula C3 and optionally an acetylene crosslinking inhibitor, optionally a siliceous filler. The invention also concerns novel hydrosilylation catalysts of the metal complex type of formula C3 above. The life span of the potted single-constituent compositions of the invention is significantly increased

Title: Method for monitoring a power supply of a control unit in a motor vehicle
Inventor: SIEVERS FALKO
IPC: G01R31/00
Filed: 2002-05-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for monitoring a power supply of a control unit in a motor vehicle, whereby a supply module that provides the voltages is connected to the components of the control unit via a RESET line. Each time the control unit is restarted or after filtered faults of the monitored voltages, an absence of faults is indicated once again from all monitoring limits of the supply module and a test of the RESET line ensues. This test is effected by forced periodic pulses that are generated for the supply voltages based on a distortion of the limits of monitoring bands. The reference voltages VREGEL and VREF are maintained independent of one another here in order to prevent feedbacks.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de mélange biétagé comprenant un premier et un second mélangeur interne et externe à tuyère d'éjection (20) pourvu de lobes identiques (48) dont le nombre équivaut au nombre de lobes du mélangeur interne du premier étage (42), et assurant le mélange du flux secondaire interne du moteur à réaction avec le flux primaire. Ce mélange permet de niveler les vitesses de flux disparates de l'échappement du moteur à réaction, de réduire les vitesses maximales à partir du flux primaire du moteur à réaction (36), et d'augmenter les vitesses de dérivation inférieures du flux secondaire interne du moteur à réaction. Les lobes du mélangeur à tuyère d'éjection sont conçus pour entraîner l'air extérieur dans le flux interne du moteur à réaction. Ces lobes présentent des courbures complexes qui améliorent considérablement le mélange des gaz et de l'air de refroidissement ambiant, d'où une réduction du bruit. Lesdits lobes agissent conjointement comme un injecteur en poussant le flux secondaire ambiant de refroidissement dans le flux primaire mélangé lorsqu'il sort de la tuyère. Ces opérations permettent de réduire le niveau de bruit.

Abstract: The device for damping noise in a hydraulic circuit, particularly in
a fuel line (18), comprises an inlet chamber (3) that is connected to a
first channel (11). The first channel is connected to an inter-chamber
(9) whereby the inter-chamber is located beside the inlet chamber. The
inlet-chamber is connected downstream via a second channel (12) to an
outlet chamber (4). The outlet chamber is arranged beside the
inter-chamber. The diameter of the inlet and outlet chamber is larger
than the diameter of the first and the second channel. This arrangement
reduces the noise of a pressure wave that arrives at the inlet chamber,
whereby the pressure wave is guided by the first channel to the
inter-chamber and by the second channel from the inter-chamber to the
outlet chamber.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a multi-function machine tool which makes it possible to machine helical grooves of diverse shapes in a workpiece using an all-purpose multi-function machine tool, and a machining method of this multi-function machine tool. 
     The multi-function machine tool of the present invention has a tool rest main body which is disposed movably relative to the main spindle of the machine tool in a first linear direction parallel to the axial line of the main spindle and a second linear direction perpendicular to the axial line of the main spindle, a turning tool rest 72 which is disposed so that this turning tool rest can turn relative to the tool rest main body about a turning axis 73 oriented in a direction that is perpendicular to the first and second linear directions, and control means which control the rotational motion of the main spindle, the turning motion of the turning tool rest about the turning axis, and the relative motion of the tool rest main body. Furthermore, the control means can cause the turning tool rest to perform a turning motion about an arbitrary position that differs from the position of the turning axis by concurrently and synchronously causing a turning motion of the turning tool rest about the turning axis, and a circular-arc motion based on the relative motion of the tool rest main body in the first linear direction and second linear direction.
