Patent EP-0833415-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DEVIR DANIEL D
IPC: H01R33/965
Filed: 1997-09-19
Abstract: A lamp capsule with lug connectors, having a lamp bulb,
a holder, and a lug is disclosed. The lamp capsule lead
extends through the holder passage to fit closely with the
lug foot. The lug foot is then rotary swaged to the lamp
lead. The swaging mechanically and electrically seals the
lead and the lug. An interference coupling is exactly
formed along the lead by the swaging, so the lead and lug
are precisely located and cannot move with reference to one
another. The lug and lead are then tightly held and located
with reference to the holder. The mechanical interference
fit also forms an electrical connection that cannot separate
like a cold weld. The swaging may additionally remove any
excess exterior extension of the lead. As a result, the lug
is quickly, accurately, and permanently coupled to the lamp
lead, and holder preventing subsequent loosening or
displacement that may effect lamp positioning or connection
durability.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer la topologie d'un réseau informatique consistant à lire des données transmises aux ports en provenance de chaque appareil dans, au moins, un sous-ensemble d'un réseau informatique. Les données transmises aux ports sont, ensuite, traitées et analysées de façon à déduire la topologie du sous-ensemble, au moins, du réseau informatique. La lecture des données transmises aux ports est, de préférence, effectuée en rendant tous les commutateurs accessibles dans le sous-ensemble, au moins, du réseau informatique de façon à fournir, pour la suite de l'analyse, un maximum de données transmises aux ports, disponibles. L'analyse topologique utilise une fonction récursive de façon à déduire la topologie à partir des données dérivées, transmises aux ports et ce, en plaçant les commutateurs accessibles dans une structure arborescente permettant de visualiser, de façon efficace, les interconnexions physiques des commutateurs.

Abstract: A system for coding of digital video images
such as bi-directionally predicted video object
planes (B-VOPs) (420), in particular, where the
B-VOP and/or a reference image (400,440) used to
code the B-VOP is interlaced coded. For a B-VOP
macroblock (420) which is co-sited with a field
predicted macroblock of a future anchor picture
(440), direct mode prediction is made by calculating
four field motion vectors (MV f,top , MV f,bot , MV b,top ,
MV b,bot ), then generating the prediction macroblock.
The four field motion vectors and their reference
fields are determined from (1) an offset term
(MV D )of the current macroblock's coding vector, (2)
the two future anchor picture field motion vectors
(MV top , MV bot ), (3) the reference field (405,410) used
by the two field motion vectors of the co-sited
future anchor macroblock, and (4) the temporal
spacing (TR b,top , TR b,bot , TR D,top , TR D,bot ), in field
periods, between the current B-VOP fields and the
anchor fields. Additionally, a coding mode decision
process for the current MB selects a forward,
backward, or average field coding mode according to
a minimum sum of absolute differences (SAD) error
which is obtained over the top (430) and bottom
(425) fields of the current MB (420).

The carrier axis (2), with the feed zone for the heating/cooling medium, has a cylindrical drilling (12) to hold a protective cylindrical tube (6) which rotates with the carrier axis (2). The tube (6) is surrounded by a stationary connection (4) at the end which projects from the carrier axis (2). At least one brush seal (5) is directly between the mantle surface of the end of the tube (6) and the stationary connection (4), or between a bush (11) at the tube (6) end rotating with the carrier axis (2) and the connection (4). The bush can be axially between the brush seal (5) and the adjacent end of the carrier axis (2). The zone is sealed externally between the carrier axis (2) and the projecting tube (6) end by the bush (11). The brush seal (5) is under tension before insertion. At least one other type of seal can be fitted in addition to the brush seal. The heating medium is steam, with an outlet for condensation at the brush seal (5) zone. The steam is fed through a channel (3) into the cylinder, and escapes through the stationary connection (4). A static channel (7) takes condensation from within the cylinder out through the connection (4). One of the channels (3,7) forms a stationary ring channel round the other, with pref. the steam feed channel (3) as the static ring channel section. The steam feed channel (3) is at one end of the cylinder, and the connection (4) is at the other end. The carrier axis (2) is a stub axle at both ends of the cylinder.

array (201; 560) includes a plurality of sets of word
lines. Each set is provided in each row of SRAM array and
each word line in each set is connected to a different
group of memory cells of an associated row. An address
signal for the SRAM and an address signal for the DRAM are
separately applied to an address buffer (255). The
semiconductor memory device further includes an additional
function control circuit (229) for realizing a burst mode
and a sleep mode. A data transfer path from DRAM to the
SRAM and a data transfer path from the SRAM to the DRAM
are separately provided in the bi-directional transfer
gate circuit. Data writing paths (GIL) and (LIL) and data
reading paths (LOL) and (GOL) are separately provided in
the DRAM array. By the above described structure,
operation of the buffer circuit is stopped in the sleep
mode, reducing power consumption. Since data writing path
and data reading path are separately provided in the DRAM
array, addresses to the DRAM array can be applied in non-multiplexed
manner, so that data can be transferred at
high speed from the DRAM array to the SRAM array, enabling
high speed operation even at a cache miss.

Abstract: This invention provides an analog PD module useful for a large number

 Ltanα  from the lens center in the direction of a projection of a vector TS
from the highest edge (T) to the lowest edge (S), where L is the distance
between the lens center and the PD. The fiber should deviate in the contrary
direction. The orientation enables a beam emanating from the fiber end to
pass the center of the lens and reach the PD by spreading on a direct line.
