Abstract: In a peeling apparatus of an extrusion material batch, a circular blade (13)
is arranged at an outlet portion (10) of a kneader, and an outer surface of the extrusion
material batch extruded from the outlet portion (10) is peeled uniformly. It is
preferred to arrange a longitudinal blade (14) for cutting the peeled waste materials in
a radial direction at a periphery of the circular blade (13). Since a water content of
the peeled waste materials is not varied, they can be returned as they are to the
inlet hopper of the kneader via a transfer line.

Abstract: In a four-way switching valve a pressure-regulating chamber 9 is selectively
connected to a low-pressure chamber d or a high-pressure chamber a by a
three-way solenoid valve 17. Another pressure-regulating chamber 8
communicates with a chamber b by a tube 16. When the three-way solenoid
valve 17 connects the pressure-regulating chamber 9 t the low-pressure
chamber d, ports A, B communicate while ports B, D are separated. Pressure
increase in chamber b increases the pressure in pressure-regulating chamber
8. A plug 2 urged by a piston 3 separates ports A and C and connects ports C
and D. When three-way solenoid valve 17 connects pressure-regulating
chamber 9 to high-pressure chamber a, a plug 4 urged by a piston 5 separates
ports A and B and connects ports B and D. Reduced pressure in chamber b
reduces the pressure in the pressure-regulating chamber 8. The plug 2 urged
by high pressure connects ports A and C, and separates ports C and D. Those
superimposed valve functions avoid refrigerant leakages when controlling the
pressures in the pressure-regulating chambers 8 and 9.

IPC: H04B1/7097
Filed: 2002-12-27
Abstract: In a noise elimination method and apparatus, a spread
spectrum modulation signal having a data signal and an
overlapping noise component at a signal point on a time axis and
a noise component at a zero point on the time axis is received. 
A correlation of the received modulation signal to a spread
spectrum code is generated by using a correlating filter. Zero is
set at points of the modulation signal other than the signal point
where the correlation becomes the maximum, so that the noise
component at the zero point is extracted from the modulation
signal. The noise component at the signal point is predicted by
performing interpolation prediction based on the extracted noise
component. The noise component at the signal point is removed
from the modulation signal based on the predicted noise
component.

Title: Power converter
Inventor: JANSEN ARIAN M
IPC: H02M7/21
Filed: 2002-06-18
Abstract: The invention is a power converter having a transformer (T) with a primary side winding (T1A) and a secondary side winding (T1C). Both the primary side and the secondary side have switches (Q1 and Q2) which are switched on and off alternately. When the primary master switch is switched on, the transformer charges. When the primary master switch is switched off, the intrinsic capacitance of the secondary slave switch discharges generating the zero voltage switching condition for the secondary slave switch. The secondary slave switch is switched on at a time determined in accordance with the waveform generated by the transformer. When the secondary slave switch is switched on, the transformer discharges and ultimately the charge from an output capacitor flows into the transformer as a backflow which charges the transformer. The secondary slave switch is switched off at a time determined in accordance with a current flowing through said secondary switch. The intrinsic capacitance of primary master switch discharges generating the zero voltage switching condition for primary master switch.
