Inventor: WADA TETSU
IPC: F02B75/02
Filed: 2002-02-14
Abstract: An intake system in a V-type 4-stroke engine (E) for an
outboard engine system is provided. A crankshaft (4) of the engine
is disposed vertically, and heads of left and right banks are
disposed to face rearwards. In the intake system, an intake air inlet is
provided in an upper portion of a longitudinally flat intake
air dispensing box disposed between the left (26L) and right (26R) banks
and a rear wall of the engine hood (33), and leads to an intake
passageway (54a) in a throttle body (54). The inside of the intake air
dispensing box (60) is divided by a partition wall (64) into first (63L) and
second (63R) dispensing chambers. An on-off valve (75) is mounted
on the partition wall and is capable of bringing the first and
second dispensing chambers into and out of communication with
each other. Intake ports (57) are provided in the left and right
banks to communicate with the first and second dispensing
chambers, respectively. Thus, it is possible to provide an
intake system for a V-type 4-stroke engine in an outboard engine
system, in which the air-charging characteristic can be changed
in accordance with the operation state of the engine, while
avoiding an increase in size of the engine hood.

Abstract: A two-color photo-detector (5) capable of sensing two colors at a single photo-detector
location is provided having a lower photo-detector element (13) resident in the bulk
silicon (60) and an upper photo-detector element (12) elevated above the lower photo-detector
element (13). The color sensitivity of each of the photo-detector elements (12 and
13) is determined according to the absorption curve of the upper photo-detector element (12),
the thickness of the upper photo-detector element (12) and the color filter (30) array, if any.
The elevated upper photo-detector element (12) overlies the circuitry needed for both the
upper photo-detector element (12) and the lower photo-detector element (13). In order to
accurately sample color within an array of two-color photo-detectors (5) without a color filter
array, two different thicknesses for the upper photo-detector elements (12) of adjacent two-color
photo-detectors (5) are used. Therefore, each pair of two-color photo-detectors (5)
within the array senses four different colors (i.e., blue and the complement of blue and red
and the complement of red). To process the raw color values for compression and storage, a
simple color-conversion matrix can be used on a 2x2 block of two-color photo-detectors (5)
to convert the four colors (eight color values) to a new color space, such as YCbCr (4:1:1),
without traditional demosaicing neighborhood operations.

Abstract: A baffle for a food waste disposer to reduce noise is disclosed. The baffle has a diaphragm that allows solid and liquid waste to pass through the diaphragm, and accordingly does not substantially affect the normal operation of the disposer. However, because the baffle covers the central opening in the conventional mounting gasket of the prior art, a direct path from the grinding mechanism in the disposer to the sink is blocked, thus muffling the noise coming from the grinding mechanism. Additionally, the disclosed baffles are preferably, but not necessarily, designed so as to create a water dam on their surface by impeding the flow of water from the sink faucet in a way to create a pool of water. The disclosed baffles may be installed in the drain opening of a sink above the conventional mounting gasket, although other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une forme de présentation moulée (un mannequin, par exemple) ou un autre article, cette forme étant constituée d'un matériau élastomère comportant un pigment et/ou un colorant mélangé à ce matériau, ladite forme présentant une couleur uniforme choisie, sur toute l'épaisseur dudit matériau. N'importe quelle couleur peut être choisie, des couleurs chair (reproduisant n'importe quelle couleur de peau), une couleur grise, hâlée, rouge, bleue, jaune ou métallique, telle qu'une couleur dorée ou argentée, et des mélanges de celles-ci. L'invention concerne également des articles moulés noirs et blancs. Le procédé selon l'invention convient particulièrement pour la production d'articles présentant une couleur uniforme, exempte de stries. Les formes selon l'invention sont non cassantes, résistent aux brûlures et supportent bien les hautes températures. Lorsque ces formes sont éraflées ou ébréchées, la couleur uniforme du matériau rend le dommage moins visible. Ce matériau est également suffisamment souple pour que les lignes de raccord puissent être éliminées par un polissage réalisé au moyen de patins synthétiques. Grâce à la couleur uniforme de ce matériau, il n'est pas nécessaire de peindre par dessus la surface polie.

Abstract: The present invention is related with the obtaining of modified antibodies by means of the
DNA recombinant technology from the murine monoclonal antibody P3 (MAb P3) produced
by the hybridoma cell line deposited under Budapest Treaty with accession number ECACC
94113026 and from its anti-idiotype murine monoclonal antibody 1E10 (MAbai 1E10)
produced by the hybridoma cell line with deposit number ECACC 97112901, with the
objective of achieving monoclonal antibodies which preserve the biological function of
specific binding to the antigen of the original antibodies, but being at the same time less
immunogenic. 
     The chimeric antibodies of the invention contain the variable domains of the murine
immunoglobulin and the constant regions of the human inmunoglobulin; and those
humanized, besides containing the constant regions of the human inmunoglobulins, they are
modified in the region of the murine frameworks (FRs) and in particular in those zones that
could be in an antigenic site for the T cells, so several positions of the FRS are human as
well. These antibodies can be used in the diagnosis and therapy of different types of tumors. 
     The present invention is also related with use of the antibodies for therapeutical and
diagnostic purposes.

Abstract: A method and system for providing flexible access resources or services related to particular software applications are described. The system includes a database of Internet sites that have been categorized so that the system determines the category of information that a user is accessing on the Internet. The system is also programmed so users are only allowed to access sites a limited number of times. The system is further programmed to limit a user's access to the Internet based on the network's current bandwidth usage. Moreover, users can requested a postponed access, wherein the resource or service they are requesting is stored to a server, and available to the user at a later time. In addition, if a user chooses to access a resource or service that is within certain predefined categories, they are presented with the option of retrieving the resource or service, but notified that their access will be logged to a file.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel
input operation device in which multi-functionality
corresponding to higher functionality of electrical equipment
can be achieved along with tactile functionality suitable as a
man-machine interface. 
     An input operation device (1) is provided with a
switching portion (3) under a coordinate operation portion (2)
that has dome-shaped coordinate operation portions (4a) and
(5a) that are deformable due to operation press forces. An
operator can perceive the deformation of the coordinate
operation portion (2) during a coordinate operation as tactile
operational feel. Further, an input operation of the
switching portion (3) is performed if a large operational
press force is applied, and therefore it is possible for the
operator to perform the coordinate operation and the input
operation while perceiving differences in the operation feel,
which correspond to differences in an operation press force,
and an erroneous input operation in the switching portion (3)
can also be reliably prevented. The coordinate operation can
be performed provided that the operation of pressing spherical
surface similar to trackball operation is imparted to the
dome-shaped coordinate operation portions (4a) and (5a), and
it therefore extremely superior in functionality as well.
