Patent EP-0853967-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LEMCOFF NORBERTO O
IPC: B01D53/047
Filed: 1998-01-07
Abstract: A rotary valve system which includes of a pair of valve assemblies (D, E) each of
which has valve parts with flat faces which, when pressed together and rotated,
provide valving action between various ports incorporated in one valve part of each
assembly. The first valve part of each assembly contains a circular array of through
openings, each of which is connected to a conduit. The second valve part of a first
assembly or of each assembly contains several passages which provide
communication between various openings of the first valve part and valve apertures
located in the second valve part of each assembly. The second valve part of the first
assembly also contains one or more passages which provide communication between
members of one or the other array of openings. The valve system can be effectively
used to automate operation of a gas or liquid adsorption system comprising two or
more adsorption vessels, the number of vessels being equivalent to the total number
of openings in either array. Use of the valve assembly in an adsorption system
eliminates the need for many of the valves required in conventional multivessel
adsorption systems.

Abstract: An ink package has a shape restoring ability and is made of a laminated
structure film material in which multiple film sheets of polyethylene or similar
material are laminated. Therefore, the ink supplying pressure for ink supplied to the
print head is kept at a negative pressure. Since the ink extracting member is formed
into a needle-like hollow body, the member can be easily stuck into a recess formed at
the ink package.

Filed: 1999-11-16
Abstract: Apparatus and method for monitoring print quality of an image (20)
produced by a digital printing mechanism (216) in real-time. Print quality is
measured by: generating a background reflectance signal representative of the
reflectance of a substrate (22); scanning the image (20) to generate a post-print
reflectance signal; comparing said reflectance signal with said post-print
reflectance signal; and, if said post-print reflectance signal is greater than a
predetermined fraction of said reflectance signal, generating an output signal
indicative of poor quality. In one embodiment, the output signal is also
generated if the post-print reflectance signal is less than a predetermined
minimum value. In another embodiment, the print mechanism is comprised in a
postage metering system (200) and the output signal inhibits further printing. In
another embodiment, the background reflectance signal is compared with the
post-print reflectance signal to classify the post-print reflectance signal as being
satisfactory, unsatisfactory, or doubtful; and if the post-print reflectance signal
is doubtful, printing a test pattern and waiting for an operator response; and
then if the operator response indicates said test pattern is acceptable, accepting
the indicia; and if the operator response indicates the test pattern is
unacceptable, rejecting the indicia. If the operator response indicates the test
pattern is acceptable, the comparison is adjusted to classify a greater portion of
post-print reflectance signals as satisfactory; and if the operator response
indicates the test pattern is unacceptable, the comparison is adjusted to classify
a greater portion of post-print reflectance signals as unsatisfactory.

Abstract: A rangefinder according to the present invention includes
light source section, camera section, distance-measuring
sensor, exposure controller and shutter. The light
source section projects light onto an object for 3D imaging
purposes. The camera section receives the light that was
emitted from the light source section and then reflected from
the object. The distance-measuring sensor estimates an approximate
distance to the object. Based on the approximate
distance, the exposure controller controls the optical output
power of the light source section and/or the open/closed
states of the shutter. The rangefinder can control the intensity
of the projected light even if the object is on the move.
As a result, the rangefinder can obtain highly precise information
about the 3D location of the object.

Abstract: A fiber optic light source module (FOLSM) (200) of a
hybrid fiber optic lighting distribution system for distributing light
from the FOLSM to various lighting features. The FOLSM (200)
includes a base (202), a lamp holder (204) connected to a forward
portion of the base (202) and an access cover (206) connected to a
rearward portion of the base (202) independent of the lamp holder
(204). The base (202) has a lamp cavity (208), a communicating
lower rod support (210) and an electrical lead port (212). The lamp
holder (204) has a front cover (214) for covering the lamp cavity
(208), an upper rod support (218) and an annular lamp support
member (216) for interfacing with a lamp (224) having a concave

collectively form a rod support (226), wherein a square cross-sectioned
light transmission connecting rod (228) is seated therein
via a resilient grommet (230). Accordingly, because the lamp support
member (216) is integral with the upper rod support (218), when the
concave mirror (222) is seated at the lamp support member (216) the
lamp (224) is automatically aligned with respect to the light

containing hydraulic fluid, a gas chamber (38) containing pressurised
gas acting on the hydraulic fluid in the compression chamber, a
compressible spring means (80) biasing the piston (34) towards the
compression chamber, and an electrically operated valve (36) between the
compression chamber and the rebound chamber and actuated by the control
unit dependent on the monitored conditions, the valve being actuable
between a two-way position in which the valve allows hydraulic fluid to
flow between the compression chamber and the rebound chamber and a
one-way position in which the valve allows hydraulic fluid to flow from
the compression chamber into the rebound chamber but not from the
rebound chamber into the compression chamber. Reduces the risk of
incorrect latching of the torsion bar.

Abstract: An antiskid brake controller (20) which utilizes measured wheel speed in
order to provide brake control for a vehicle such as an aircraft. The measured wheel
speed is differentiated to determine the deceleration of the wheel (30), and the
controller (20) then compares the deceleration to a predefined deceleration
threshold. If the wheel decelerates faster than the deceleration threshold, the
controller (20) reduces the command pressure provided to the brakes (28) by a
scaling factor. Full command pressure may eventually be applied otherwise. The
controller (20) is capable of operating based only on measured wheel speed.

Abstract: A wafer polishing device with movable window can be used for in-situ
monitoring of a wafer during CMP processing. During most of the CMP operation,
the window remains below a polishing surface of a polishing device to protect the
window from the deleterious effects of the polishing process. When the window
moves into position between the wafer and a measurement sensor, the window is
moved closer to the polishing surface. In this position, at least some polishing agent
collected in the recess above the window is removed, and an in-situ measurement can
be taken with reduced interference from the polishing agent. After the window is
positioned away from the wafer and measurement sensor, the window moves farther
away from the wafer and polishing surface. With such a movable window, the
limitations of current polishing devices are overcome.

Abstract: A system and method for vehicle dynamic control
processes a compensated yaw rate signal measurement and a

the controller is able to adjust the control action of the
vehicle dynamic control system based on the derived signal
measurement of road bank angle disturbance not compensated
