Patent EP-0913560-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GROSS CHRISTOF
IPC: F01N9/00
Filed: 1998-09-19
Abstract: Exhaust emissions from a combustion engine are reduced using a catalyst while simultaneously limiting the battery arrangement. Process for improving the exhaust gas emissions from a combustion engine comprises heating a catalyst after starting the engine so that the output of the generator during the heating of the catalyst is reduced until the catalyst reaches a required lowest temperature. During the heating up stage the performance of the generator is adjusted whilst the performance is reduced in such a way that this is larger than 0. The performance compared to the normal operation is reduced after the heating up phase (104, 102). The generator performance is regulated (105) so that the required threshold values of the power supply potential are not exceeded (103).

Abstract: The spring of a spring-tensioned cable (6) is supported between a housing-side part (1) and a movable Bowden tube (5) side part. Pre-tensioned catch elements prevent the backward movement of the Bowden tube side part. At least one pair of spaced apart thrust pieces correspond to at least one part with restricted movement. The restricted movable parts are in the form of catch elements (31-33) spaced apart axially and have a pair of thrust pieces each between which the catch element moves axially to a limited extent. The catch elements are mounted in guide slits (10) in the housing-side part.

Abstract: An enhanced communication network switch utilizes a Time Slot Interchange
facility to decompose and compose composite ATM cells that each comprise a 5 byte
header and a 48 byte payload. The payload comprises data from a temporarily defined
set of call connections of a virtual 48 channel transmission facility; and the switch
comprises a Cell Header Decoder comprising a plurality of records which direct
operation of the TSI to decompose corresponding received composite ATM cells. At
the time that a cell is committed to call connection service, the switch seizes and
initializes an idle record in the Cell Header Decoder. 
     For the purpose of composing a composite ATM cell for transmission to an ATM
line, Cell Header and payload data are read from memory locations assigned to call
connections served by the cell during the time slots currently assigned to the cell.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method to provide a service to a user of a
subscriber in a universal personal telecommunication network. The method
includes the step of requesting access by the user to the telecommunication
network via a terminal and via an access subnetwork of the telecommunication
network in order to provide thereby an access request. The method further
includes the step of providing by a notifying service provider to the user via the
access subnetwork, a notification which includes a capability to accept a service
of an offered service provider. In the event when the notifying service provider is
a home service provider of the user, the offered service provider is different of the
notifying service provider. The offered service is a virtual visited environment
similar to a virtual home environment but identified by the user as visitor and the
offered service provider.

Abstract: An electrical power management system (300) is disclosed
comprising a power supply (301) which, when a first switch
(302) and a third switch (306) are closed, provides power to
a DC-DC step up converter (303) which, in turn, supplies
power to a load (310) and simultaneously stores energy in a
capacitor (305). In the case where the load momentarily
requires more power than can be provided by the power
supply, the first switch (302) and the third switch (306)
are opened and a second switch (304) is closed. Energy
previously stored in the capacitor (305) is now provided to
the DC-DC step up converter (303) thereby allowing an
efficient use of energy stored in the capacitor.

Abstract: Le recours à des analyses structurelles radiographiques de protéases de VIH résistant à l'action des médicaments et à la modélisation moléculaire a permis de développer un nouveau type d'inhibiteurs présentant un petit reste P3 (cf. figure). Ces inhibiteurs sont efficaces contre le VIH et ses mutants résistant à l'action des médicaments, ainsi que contre le VIF. La modification d'inhibiteurs de protéases du VIH existant par réduction de la taille du reste P3 présente le même effet. Cette découverte constitue une nouvelle stratégie de développement d'inhibiteurs de protéases du VIH efficaces contre les mutants de type sauvage et résistant à l'action des médicaments et fait apparaître que la protéase du VIF est un modèle utile pour des protéases du VIH résistantes à l'action des médicaments, lesquelles sont souvent développées par la réduction de la taille de la région de liaison du groupe P3 ou des groupes P3 et P1 combinés.

Abstract: To destroy germs in materials containing paper fibers, the infected material (M) is initially degassed virtually completely. It is then heated (1) intensively at least at 80 deg C, followed by dispersion (2). For special handling, chemical additives (CH) are introduced into the process. The material (M) has a residual air content of  <= 1 vol% before or during the heating stage (1).  The degassing is to give a pref. residual air content in the material (M) of  <= 0.1 vol%. The material (M) is compressed (3) without affecting its water content, at least to a compression stage where the gas-filled hollow zones take in the residual air content. Or the compression changes the water content to give it a solid content of \-15% and pref. 20-35% with a resulting air extraction, directly followed by heating (1). Before or during heating, the compressed material (M) is loosened and flushed with vapor and pref. steam, which also raises the material temp. The steam flow is against the direction of material (M) travel. After the compressed material (M) has been expanded and/or loosened, it is heated to at least 120 deg C, and held in a stack or a flow path for a dwell time of at least 2 secs. at 120 deg C. The material is dispersed (2) or kneaded, directly after the heating stage (1). In preparation for the heating stage (1), the material (1) is mixed with peroxide at a level of at least 4% of the material dry content. The heating is applied without the use of reduction chemicals. The material (M) has a solid content of 15-80 mass%, mainly of used paper. An Independent claim is included for an appts. with a compression stage connected directly to the heating stage, to feed compressed material plugs into the heater. The heating stage has a gas exhaust, and a steam flushing system using steam from the exhaust.
