Abstract: A transfer protocol conversion method and a
protocol conversion equipment are disclosed in order to
transmits TS packets for a CATV network, a DAVIC network or
the like by use of IP packets for the internet. In a
network (56) using TS packets, the transmission is made
with an internet protocol header (6) stored in a private
field of an adaptation field (2; 7; 13; 20) defined in the
TS packet. An equipment (62; 302) for protocol conversion
between a network (56; 200) using TS packets and an
internet (50; 400) forms an IP packet for the internet by
use of the header transferred by the private data.
Further, lower 8 bits (331) of the IP address of an IP
packet and lower 8 bits (332) of the PID value of a TS
packet are made the same and upper 24 bits (333) of the IP
address are converted into a 5-bit value so that the
converted 5-bit value is made to correspond to upper 5 bits
(334) of the PID value.

Title: Wireless access network system capable of reducing call loss probability
Inventor: IMAI TAKESHI
IPC: H04W84/14
Filed: 1998-11-11
Abstract: An access network system capable of reducing loss
probability in an access network which is connected on one
hand to a service node (6) of an existing network through
subscriber lines (7), and on the other hand to multiple
user terminals (8a-8b), and has a concentrating function.
A WAC (Wireless local loop Access Controller, that is, a
controller of the access network) (1) connected with the
service node (local switch) (6) receives from a base
station (2) a notification that no idle wireless channel is
present if a wireless circuit (4) is busy when the service
node (6) makes a call request, and receives from the base
station (2) a notification that an idle wireless channel is
present when the base station (2) detects it in the
wireless circuit (4). If the WAC (1) receives the channel
busy notification, or cannot detect an idle channel in a
trunk line (5), the WAC (1) reserves a call processing. If
the WAC (1) receives the notification that an idle wireless
channel is present, or detects an idle channel in the trunk
line (5), and if the current subscriber line (7) from the
service node (6) still holds the incoming call state, the
WAC (1) releases the reservation of the call processing,
and performs a repeated call processing for the call
request when the call request is still present.

Abstract: Disclosed is a gas sensor (10A) for controlling a
concentration of oxygen and/or measuring NOx by allowing a
current to flow through an ion-conductive member for
conducting oxygen ion, by the aid of a current supply
circuit (14), wherein the current, which is outputted from
the current supply circuit (14), has a pulse waveform
(current signal) (Sif) having a constant crest value, and
the current supply circuit (14) comprises a rectangular
wave-generating circuit (76) for controlling a frequency of
the current signal (Sif) on the basis of an electromotive
force (V2) generated in the ion-conductive member to which
the current signal (Sif) is supplied. Accordingly, it is
possible to highly accurately measure the predetermined gas
component while scarcely being affected by the electric
noise or the like.

Abstract: A housing (11) has a piston (17) inserted thereinto.
A pull rod (12) is connected to the piston (17). An
annular collet (13) is externally fitted onto the pull
rod (12). When clamping, an engaging member (14)
provided on a peripheral wall of the collet (13) is
inserted into an engaging hole (2) of a workpiece (1)
and the piston (17) is lowered. Then a tapered outer
peripheral surface (12a) of the pull rod (12)
diametrically expands the engaging member (14) to engage
it with the engaging hole (2) and the collet (13)
slightly descends against a push spring (27). Thus a
downward driving force acting on the pull rod (12) is
transmitted to the workpiece (1) via the engaging member
(14) and the workpiece (1) is pulled and fixed to a
support surface (S) of the housing (11).

Abstract: A plurality of timing paths are established through a switching network
that has a plurality of independent switching units (120-129) with each switching unit
switching one bit of each group of data from a given external data link (e.g. 103)
through the switching network. Each switching unit establishes a path to each of a
plurality of port timing units (in 116,136) where each port timing unit controls a set of
port units (117,118,137,138). Further, each port timing unit is responsive to timing
information received on the plurality of timing paths to utilize the timing information to
provide timing to its set of port units. Each port timing unit comprises timing difference
detectors with each timing difference detector determining a difference in timing
between an individual one of the plurality of timing paths and timing generated by the
timing unit. Each of the port timing units is responsive to the difference in timing for
adjusting the timing of the port timing unit to agree with the timing of a central timing
unit (in 101). In addition, each of the port timing units determines which of the timing
paths have valid timing information and utilizes the valid timing information to
calculate the difference to adjust the timing of the port timing unit. Also, the
determination of valid timing information is performed by the port timing unit doing a
statistical analysis on the timing differences determined by the timing difference
detectors.

Abstract: This invention intends to reduce the size of a webbing
retractor (10) in which a pinion (42) is prevented from being damaged when
a large initial driving force is applied from a gear. When a
sensor detects an emergent deceleration of a vehicle, a piston
driving device (48) is actuated so as to move a rack (46) at its standby
position in a direction to a pinion (42). When the rack (46) is located
at the standby position, a tooth face on a side near a front
end, of a front end tooth (46a) thereof is in contact with a pressure
receiving surface (58) of the initially driving member (56). The rack (46)
is moved along a pitch line in the direction to the pinion (42) so
that the front end tooth (46a) presses the pressure receiving surface (58).
As a result, the initially driving member (56) converts the initial
driving force from the rack to a rotation force thereby rotating
the pinion (42) in the taking-up direction.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for controlling the temperature
of a refrigeration unit (1) with a refrigerating
compartment (3), a freezing compartment (2) and a common
evaporator (4) of a cooling circuit, and a corresponding
temperature control arrangement. In a first mode (normal
operation) the compressor (5) of the cooling circuit is
turned ON when cooling is required and turned OFF when
cooling is not required, in dependence of the refrigerating
compartment temperature (T 2 ). In a second mode, in
spite of no cooling requirement in the refrigerating
compartment (3), the compressor (5) is forced ON for a
predetermined operating time (t 1 ), when the OFF-time of
the compressor has exceeded a threshold value (t 2 ). The
forced turning ON is repeated as often as the OFF-time
exceeds the threshold value. A return to the first mode
occurs as soon as the refrigerating compartment (3) requires
cooling. The temperature control arrangement involved
has a monitoring arrangement (14) for the duration
of the OFF-time, a threshold value transmitter (16) and a
comparator (15), which, in case the OFF-time is exceeded
provides an excess signal. An ON-timer (19) transmits an
ON-signal specified for a certain duration to the switching
device (8). Thus the cooling need of freezing compartment
(2) and refrigerating compartment (3) can be satisfied
within a wide range of ambient temperatures, and
additionally a frost protection of the refrigerating
compartment and a safe defrosting of the evaporator can be
provided.
