Patent GB-988208-A (GB)
Abstract: 988,208. Hydraulic reciprocating motors; timing gear. NEW YORK AIR BRAKE CO. Aug. 8, 1963 [Sept. 10, 1962], No. 31299/63. Headings F1A and F1K. An hydraulic system for starting an I.C. engine comprises an hydraulic swash plate starter motor 1 coupled to the engine 7 through a one-way clutch 9 and control valve means 29, 52 whereby the motor 1 may be operated either by its normal high output pressure pump 15 or by a lower pressure pump 15<SP>1</SP> normally used for supplying the engine auxiliary system. The maximum rate of flow supplied to the motor is made equal to the motor demand at or slightly above engine ignition speed, pumps 15 and 15<SP>1</SP> being designed to provide either this flow-rate or greater flow rates, in the latter case a flow limiter 24 being provided. The starter motor swash plate 11 is controlled by a motor 26 controlled by a valve member 35 biased by a spring 42 having two settings determined by its seat member 45. Positioning of seat member 45 is controlled by a valve 52 subjected to the pressure upstream of flow limiter 24 and acting to supply pressure fluid to spring seat chamber 49 to move spring seat 45 to its high spring loading position when high pressure pump 15 is in circuit 1 and to connect chamber 49 to exhaust for return of spring seat 45 to its low loading position when low pressure pump 15<SP>1</SP> is in circuit. The spring settings are adjustable by a sleeve 46 and bolt 47. For normal starting, high pressure pump 15 is put in circuit by opening valves 21 and 22 and its output pressure acts on valve 52 to move spring seat 45 to its high loading position. The pressure downstream of flow limiter 24 moves valve member 35 leftward to connect pressure to control motor 26 to move swash plate 11 to its maximum displacement position. When the engine accelerates after starting, the pressure acting on valve 35 falls and valve 35 then acts to control the swash plate to maintain the motor demand constant during engine acceleration to starter cut out speed, at which the starter motor displacement is zero. If low pressure pump 15<SP>1</SP> is used to start the engine, its output pressure is insufficient to hold spring seat control valve 58 against spring 64, so that the spring seat 45 is moved to its low-load setting and valve 35 controls the starter motor in the same manner as for the high pressure pump. Specification 959,726 is referred to.

Title: Method and system for determining the location of a chain jam
Inventor: MILLER MICHAEL
IPC: B65G43/02
Filed: 1999-02-18
Abstract: A method of determining the site of a jam in a chain drive system, eg a conveyor system, having an endless chain driven about a pathway comprises providing a plurality of sensors and a corresponding indicator at locations along the pathway; sensing for a condition at each sensor indicative of a chain jam in a given direction from the sensor; and, actuating the indicator corresponding to the sensors at which a condition indicative of a chain jam in said given direction from said sensor is sensed. The system may comprise a chain 14 forced into a zig-zag pattern by the inclusion of deflectors 24, 28 at various positions along the chain pathway and the force exerted against these deflectors, from tension in the chain, is measured by sensors 32, 34. When a jam occurs the force on the deflectors between the location of the jam and the drive, in the direction upstream from the drive, increases, and this increase is sensed and used to actuate indicators 40 near each of the sensors at which such an increase has occurred. The chain jam is found upstream of the furthest actuated indicator from the drive. The indicators may also be connected to a central controller which displays a representation of the chain pathway on a computer terminal.

Title: Adaptive dual filter echo cancellation
Inventor: HAKANSSON STEFAN
IPC: G06F17/10
Filed: 1998-02-26
Abstract: A digital signal processor (100) that is used for echo cancellation computations is disclosed, which includes parallel multiplier/adders (102/104 and 106/108), an input signal sample memory (120), and a plurality of accumulators (112, 114, 116, 118) for temporarily storing the results of the computations performed. Consequently, not all of the computational results have to be saved in an external data memory (136, 138), which minimizes data transfer bottlenecks arid significantly increases the computational efficiency of the digital signal processor (100). The adaptive filter coefficient updates can thereby be computed much faster, and the adaptive filter coefficients can be copied much faster from one filter to the other. The computational complexity of the digital signal processor (100) is significantly less than that of prior digital signal processors.

Title: Diagnosing a fault condition in an air assisted fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine
Inventor: RUTKOWSKI BRIAN D
IPC: F02D41/22
Filed: 1999-11-29
Abstract: A fault condition in an air assisted injection system of an internal combustion engine is diagnosed from the rates of airflow through an electronically (microprocessor) controlled 12 throttle plate 34 and an air assisted injector 38 system. The air assisted injection system is operated at first and second rates of airflow and corresponding first and second values indicative of the air flow entering the throttle at idle speed are generated, and from these values an error signal is generated. Airflow rates through the air assisted injector system can be increased or decreased at a predetermined rate, or the system can be turned off, when determining the first and second airflow rates through the throttle. Alternatively, a fault condition can be generated as a function of a first error value and a second error value, the first error value being determined from the difference between first expected and first actual airflow values, and the second error value determined from the difference between a second actual value and the sum of first and second expected values. A predetermined waiting period can be introduced to allow the engine idle speed to stabilise. A fault indication may illuminate an instrument panel error light.

Abstract: 1395987 Treating vitreous material GLAVERBEL 23 Oct 1972 [25 Oct 1971] 48783/72 Heading C1M A body of vitreous or partly vitreous material is treated in a gas-filled treatment chamber (other than the drawing chamber, or annealing lehr associated therewith, of a drawing machine), in at least one zone of which the temperature of at least one face of the body is sufficiently high for the geometry of that face to be influenced by the heat distribution in the gas, gas-displacing forces being exerted first in one direction and then in a reverse direction to cause the gas in the said zone to move to and fro in contact with the said face. Preferably the forces are exerted at at least 1 cycle in 10 minutes, and up to 10 cycles per minute. The chamber may be an annealing lehr 37 in which a glass ribbon or sheet 43 is supported on rollers 44. Transverse motion of the gas to and fro above the sheet is caused by alternate injection of gas from tuber 45 and 46, which are supplied with gas from reservoir 52 and distributer 51. The treatment is preferably carried out in the zone in which the glass has a temperature of 450-600‹ C. The gas injected may be preheated air, or may be a combustible gas. Mechanical means, e.g. propellers or reciprocating plates, may replace the injectors. In an alternative embodiment (Fig. 4, not shown) the gas-displacing technique is used in a process for bending glass sheets by sagging into a concave mould.
