Patent EP-1567375-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NONNENMACHER PETER
IPC: B60H1/00
Filed: 2003-11-28
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de conditionnement d'air, une différence étant faite entre un conditionnement d'air réalisé conformément à un procédé classique et un conditionnement d'air modifié. Le conditionnement d'air modifié selon l'invention est mis en oeuvre lorsqu'un occupant de la zone climatisée, , quand un refroidissement a déjà atteint la limite physique, c'est-à-dire la température d'air soufflé minimale, avant que l'évaporateur soit gelé, par exemple lorsque la température est très élevée, désire un refroidissement plus important et abaisse donc encore la température intérieure de consigne. Etant donné qu'un refroidissement plus important par abaissement de la température d'air soufflé n'est plus possible, dans ce cas, pour l'obtention d'un autre effet de refroidissement sensible pour les passagers, la puissance de la soufflante est augmentée conformément à la modification de la température intérieure de consigne en liaison avec la température extérieure, pour qu'une plus grande quantité d'air soit conduite dans l'espace intérieur, dans la zone de climatisation correspondante, et qu'un autre effet de refroidissement soit produit par ce plus grand flux massique.

Patent EP-1534505-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GNAEDIG CHRISTIAN
IPC: D04H1/46
Filed: 2003-06-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-ply sound-proofing and thermal insulation part (1), in particular for motor vehicles, comprising at least one three-dimensionally structured foamed plastic layer (2), which has a plurality of elevations (4) and/or recesses (5), and at least one non-woven layer (3) lying adjacent to said plastic layer. The aim of the invention is to produce a lightweight insulation part of this type in a cost-effective manner. To achieve this, the non-woven layer (3) is tacked onto the foamed plastic layer (2), in such a way that the non-woven layer follows the contours of the foamed plastic layer and the elevations (4) and/or recesses (5) of the foamed plastic layer (2) are also pronounced in the surface of the non-woven layer (3) facing away from the plastic layer. The composite of the non-woven layer and foamed plastic layer of the insulation part is thus produced without adhesive, saving the cost of said adhesive and reducing the weight of the insulation part accordingly.

Inventor: MALONEY TIMOTHY J
IPC: H01L27/06
Filed: 1995-03-27
Abstract: In device requiring ESD protection, a bias network (26) is used to
augment the diode string to distribute small but significant forward current to
the diodes. Also employed is the use of cantilever diodes (30) which provide
PNP Darlington gain block for ESD protection rather than for amplifying
signals in bipolar ICs. In one embodiment, the termination is the principal
element of the device novelty and that which makes the device "stand alone".
The termination supplies final base current to the gain block for a limited
amount of time, so that ESD charge can be shunted harmlessly through the
PNP chain, but assures that the structure draws no current from a stable
power supply long term. The entire structure is able to absorb noise spikes
as well as ESD pulses. The termination also makes provisions for
discharging its capacitor between ESD pulses, as is necessary for
standardized testing. The invention has value as an IC power supply clamp,
and reduce the damage often seen on IC power supplies during extensive
ESD testing.
