Patent CA-1327626-C (CA)

Abstract: Abstract of the Invention Improved   blade-type,   air   dielectric switchgear  apparatus  is  provided  having  spring loaded, fast acting, operator independent mechanism for selective opening and closing of internal switch contacts.    Preferably,  the  operating  mechanism includes a pair of opposed, pivotal, notched, scis-sor-like arms with a rotatable latch plate therebe-tween; a pair of latching pins are carried by the plate, and the latter is operably connected with a power spring assembly.   A trip element is also provided which, upon rotation thereof in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, serves to shift a corresponding arm away from the latch plate to disengage the latching components.  At this point a high velocity rotational movement is imparted to the latch plate by the spring assembly to rotate the latch plate to a second position wherein the plate and the opposed arm come into latching engagement. The trip element is provided with stops to prevent pivoting thereof to an over center condition with respect to the power spring assembly, thereby elim-inating the possibility that a lineman operating the switchgear will mistakenly believe that the switch-gear contacts have been separated, when in fact they have remained in engagement.   The pin and notch latching arrangement is also designed to give a positive weld break function during initial stages of operation of the mechanism.   The switchblade shaft is preferably pivotally supported by means of an inexpensive threaded connection which also gives a degree of axially adjustability to the shaft.

Abstract: Abstract A control system for governing multiple operating mode adjustable suspension units in an automotive vehicle with an adjustment mechanism for receiving an adjustment control signal for placing the suspension units in any of the multiple adjustment modes, and a fault warning mechanism for detecting an inability of the adjustment mechanism to adjust one or more of the suspension units and for generating a fault warning signal in response to such detection.  The diagnostic mechanism responsive to such fault warning signal is operatively connected with the adjustment mechanism for determining the extent which the ability to adjust the suspension units has been impaired and a mode selection mechanism operatively connected with the diagnostic mechanism for deciding into which of the multiple operating modes the suspension units should be directed based upon the determination of the diagnostic mechanism, with the mode selection mechanism further including a mechanism for generating an adjustment control signal corresponding to the operating modes and for communicating such signal to the adjustment mechanism.     l290K

Title: Echo canceller

IPC: H04B3/23
Filed: 1989-03-16
Granted: 1996-04-02
Abstract: An echo canceller provided with an expected echo generating unit which generates an expected echo of a transmission signal and a frequency offset correction unit which detects a phase error between an echo in a received signal and an expected echo from the expected echo generating unit and corrects the frequency offset for the expected echo by an offset frequency estimated based on the phase error, wherein use is made of the expected echo after offset correction by the frequency offset correction unit so as to suppress the echo in the received signal, the frequency offset correction unit using the phase error obtained after normalizing the phase error by the magnitude of the echo in the received signal.  By this, it is possible to perform frequency offset correction adaptive to the far-end echo characteristics.  Further, it is desirable to perform the frequency offset correction after it is confirmed that the rate of change of the output from a subtractor for cancellation of the near-end echo has become almost zero.

Abstract: ABSTRACT         Devices for applying film layers and/or active agent carriers to the skin are disclosed,  including a liner layer having a release surface, a carrier layer for the film layer, a first adhesive between the carrier layer and the film layer, and a second adhesive between the liner layer and the opposite surface of the film layer and carrier layer.  In this manner, the film layer is sandwiched between the liner layer and carrier layer, and the coefficients of adhesion of the two adhesives are selected so that upon separation of the liner layer and the carrier layer the film layer remains on the carrier layer, and upon application of the film layer to the skin,  the  film layer transfers  from the carrier layer to the skin.   The device preferably includes a hinge permanently connecting a peripheral edge of the carrier layer to the liner layer in order to facilitate this process,  and in a preferred embodiment an active agent carrier is either substituted for or added to the film layer.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE  DISCLOSURE           This invention relates to a unique transmission system for applying torque from an engine flywheel to the drive train of an automotive vehicle including a long travel viscous damped torsional damper driven by the flywheel and coupled to a continuously variable transmission which in turn is coupled to a wet drive clutch, the output of which is connected to an output counter shaft for the automotive drive train.  An important part of the unique combination is the long travel viscous damped torsional damper of the invention which includes an enclosed, effectively sealed housing containing input and output members coupled through a plurality of series parallel spring sets and immersed in a viscous medium to provide effective viscous damping matched to the effective spring rate of the mechanical damping system to accommodate both transient and steady-state vibrational torques.   The damper is especially useful with the continuously variable transmission but is useful in other applications as well.

Abstract: ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT VEHICLE ROLL-OVER BAR       Abstract of the Disclosure An adjustable height roll-over bar is provided in which the cross-piece is separate from the vertical members.  The height of the roll-over bar is adjusted by adjusting the connection between the cross piece and the roll-over bar.  The three embodiments for this connection are taught:  First, corner brackets are provided and an extension can be added between the vertical member and the corner bracket to increase the height of the roll-over bar.  One corner bracket leg is longer than the other to compensate for the difference in horizontal distance between the vertical member and the vertical member plus extension when the vertical members are angled.  The same corner brackets can be used at either height simply by flipping the corner bracket end-for-end to adjust the position of the long leg.  In the second embodiment, the vertical members and the cross piece each are provided with angled engagement surfaces, preferably 45 degrees.  These surfaces can be engaged in a complimentary fashion so that the vertical members align with the U-shaped cross piece and provide maximum height. Alternatively, the cross piece can be flipped end-for-end so that the cross piece extends at an angle from the vertical members, preferably rearwardly at about 90 degrees.  These surfaces are provided with matching knobs and depressions to prevent motion therealong and a bolt or other engagement means is provided to hold the two surfaces together.  In the third embodiment, the cross piece is pivotally mounted to the vertical members.  While the vertical members can be angled slightly relative to one another, the pivot surface on the two hinges is parallel.  The U-shaped cross piece is pivotal between a maximum height position parallel to the vertical members and one extending rearwardly therefrom at a lower height.  A quick release pin is provided to hold the cross piece in either of these positions.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An exercise device is provided together with a method for using the device which, when used either independently or in combination with a conventional exercise apparatus, generates a series of pulse forces in the same direction as the resistance force applied by the conventional apparatus   in combination with which the present device is utilized, and in a direction opposite to that applied by the subject utilizing the exercise device, and with force sufficient to move the body member of the subject a short distance and thereby to stretch the muscles of the body member with each pulse force. The stretching of the muscles by the application of the the pulse forces results over a period of time in the strengthening of the body member muscles to a greater degree than would occur as a result of exercising with the conventional apparatus alone.
