Patent EP-0248754-B1 (EP)
IPC: H02M7/48
Filed: 1987-05-12
Granted: 1993-02-03
Abstract: The invention refers to a procedure for the conversion of electric energy, from direct to alternating, according to which the waveform of the AC voltage, with its applicable positive and negative half-cycles, is obtained taking the instantaneous values of the voltage amplitude to be obtained, by means of sequential sweeps of the junction or connection points in a plurality of DC supplies. More concretely, the sequential sweep of every two consecutive junction or connection points is made so that the connection in the second point starts before making the disconnection with the first, except in the changes of current reversal where a "zero" energy situation is established before making such a reverse.

Abstract: Appareil et procédé de distribution de matières fluides consistant à décharger le fluide par un ajutage (30) sur une pièce de travail (39). L'apport de fluide à l'ajutage est régulé par une soupape de dosage (26) située à proximité de l'ajutage. L'écoulement de fluide distribué est détecté par un transducteur de pression (36) qui détecte la chute de pression au niveau de l'ajutage. Le transducteur de pression génère un signal de réaction (37) qui peut être appliqué au moyen d'un système de commande à boucle fermée à une servo-soupape électropneumatique (24) qui actionne un cylindre pneumatique à double effet (22) lequel, à son tour, actionne la soupape de dosage (26) pour commander la chute de pression au niveau de l'ajutage commandant ainsi l'écoulement de fluide distribué selon un signal de commande (122). Lorsque le distributeur est porté par un robot, le signal de commande peut être mis en corrélation avec la vitesse relative entre la pièce de travail et l'ajutage pour commander de manière précise la quantité de fluide par longueur unitaire contenue dans un filet déposé sur la surface de la pièce de travail. Etant donné la réponse rapide du système, une telle commande précise est possible même lors de changements relativement rapides de la vitesse relative entre l'ajutage et la pièce de travail. Sont également décrits des moyens permettant de s'assurer que le volume de fluide distribué sur un intervalle prédéterminé correspond à une valeur de consigne désirée permettant de corriger les modifications de la viscosité propre du fluide distribué suite à des changements de sa température.

Abstract: A driving pinion, housed in the steering casing and meshing with a toothed rack, is particularly prone to fractures, being subjected as it is to a high level of jerk stress. Said pinion's stress-bearing capability should therefore be increased. Above the driving pinion (1) in the steering casing lies a protective shell (11). Said protective shell (11) can be riveted, screwed or glued to the steering casing (4). It encompasses the driving pinion (1) on about 180°. The protective shell can also be cast into the steering casing (4) to form a projection. Under high jerk stresses, the driving pinion (1) flexes, and is applied against the protective shell (11). A fracture of the driving pinion (1) is thereby avoided.

Abstract: A sealing member for a container has a membrane, e.g. aluminum foil, and a first sheet, e.g. polyester, part of which is bonded to the membrane. The other part of the sheet is free, so as to form a tab, to enable the seal to be detached. The seal can be attached to the neck of a bottle by a hot melt adhesive. The sheet and membrane can be stamped from a compound sheet and be of the same size. The composite portion can extend up to a line extending across a major portion of the membrane, or in another embodiment it covers a major portion of the membrane. Alternatively, the first sheet and the membrane can have a substantially common periphery in the separated portion of the sealing member forming the tab. A further embodiment provides for a sealing member that is entirely planar.

Abstract: A vertical jump exercise apparatus is proposed to train and condition participants in sports demanding a high degree of vertical jumping ability. Elastic cords (20) fastened to the waist of the user provide a nearly constant resistive force, thereby simulating increased body weight to strengthen leg muscles and to improve motor reflexes. Generation of the nearly constant force is accomplished by directing one or more of the elastic cords beneath or away from the exercise area (12), thus allowing use of an increased length of cord. Directional control for the jumper, cord following to prevent fouling of the cord, and reduced friction are provided by movable tracking assemblies (40) that may pivot or move linearly and may be provided with pulleys. The tracking assemblies may also serve as force imbalance indicators for the elastic cords.

Abstract: A learning pattern is classified into a plurality of patterns by a classifying means (102). The result of the classification, as well as the representative features quantity calculated by a representative feature quantity operating unit (103), are stored in a dictionary storing unit (104) in respective regions. Upon recognition, after feature quantities of unknown input patterns are extracted from a feature quantity extracting unit (101), a similarity operating unit (105) arithmetically operates the similarity between the input pattern and respective learning patterns for respective regions. The point accumulating means (106) searches a dictionary storing unit (104) and accumulates points corresponding to a rank for respective learning patterns included in class having the upper rank from the highest to a lower similarity for respective regions. The recognition result candidate outputting unit (107) outputs the recognition result candidate in accordance with the order of the higher accumulated point for the learning pattern. Therefore, the present pattern recognition can decrease the memory capacity of the dictionary and the number of the calculations.

Abstract: Recombinant mycobacterial vaccine vehicles capable of expressing DNA of interest which encodes at least one protein antigen for at least one pathogen against which an immune response is desired and which can be incorporated into the mycobacteria or stably integrated into the mycobacterial genome. The vaccine vehicles are useful for administration to mammalian hosts for purposes of immunization. A recombinant vector which replicates in E. coli but not in mycobacteria is also disclosed. The recombinant vector includes 1) a mycobacterial gene or portions thereof, necessary for recombination with homologous sequences in the genome of mycobacteria transformed with the recombinant plasmid; 2) all or a portion of a gene which encodes a polypeptide or protein whose expression is desired in mycobacteria transformed with the recombinant plasmid; 3) DNA sequences necessary for replication and selection in E coli; and 4) DNA sequences necessary for selection in mycobacteria (e.g., drug resistance). The present invention also relates to two types of recombinant vectors useful in introducing DNA of interest into mycobacteria, where it is expressed. One type of vector is a recombinant phasmid capable of replicating as a plasmid in E. coli and of lysogenizing a mycobacterial host. The other type of vector is a recombinant plasmid which can be introduced into mycobacteria, where it is stably maintained extrachromosomally.

Abstract: In a circuit arrangement for matching the resonant frequency of an antenna resonant circuit (18) to the output circuit of a transmitter output stage (10) the antenna resonant circuit (18) is loosely coupled via a reactance to the transmitter outupt stage (10). By means of a current sensor (16) the supply direct current of the transmitter output stage (10) is detected. A tuning component (26) lying in the antenna resonant circuit (18) can be changed as regards its value by means of a control signal; the tuning component is a governing factor for the resonance frequency of the antenna resonant circuit (18). A comparator and control unit (36) repeatedly samples the value of the supply direct current detected by the current sensor (16). In dependence upon the result of a comparison with a respective previously sampled value it applies the control signal to the tuning component (26) to obtain a maximization of the supply direct current detected.
