IPC: G01B11/03
Filed: 2004-03-06
Abstract: Device for measuring an object or its surface using a coordinate measuring device comprises a tracer element (46) and an optical sensor system consisting of a distance sensor (34) and an image-processing sensor (32). The distance sensor and the image-processing sensor have a common optical beam path. The spatial position of the tracer element is determined by the distance sensor and the image-processing sensor directly or indirectly using a target (40). The surface of the object is measured directly using the distance sensor and the image-processing sensor. An independent claim is also included for a process for determining the spatial position of an object or its surface.

comprises a nucleic acid portion having a nucleotide
sequence reflecting the genotype, and a protein portion
comprising a protein involved in exhibition of the phenotype,
a 3'-terminal end of the nucleic acid portion and a C-terminal
end of the protein portion being covalently bound,

Abstract: A system for controlling filling a motor-vehicle
tank with LPG, comprises: a normally-closed valve (12),
which can be driven in opening by excitation of a
solenoid (19); sensor means (9), pre-arranged to emit
an electrical signal indicating that a pre-set maximum
level of LPG in the tank has been reached; and a
control member, which can be operated manually for
generating an electrical signal indicating the
intention to proceed with filling the tank. The system
further comprises a control circuit (18), which is
independent of the circuit on board the motor vehicle
and which is active even when the vehicle engine is
turned off and is pre-arranged for exciting the
solenoid of the valve (12) in order to control opening
thereof when it receives the aforesaid signal
indicating activation of the mode of filling of the
tank, and for de-exciting the aforesaid solenoid (19)
in order to control closing of the valve (12) when the
signal indicating that the pre-set maximum level of LPG
in the tank has been reached is received. Preferably,
the aforesaid valve is of the servo type, in which the
solenoid controls an auxiliary open/close element
associated to a pilot hole, opening of which causes
opening of a main open/close element.

Title: Vehicle navigation apparatus
Inventor: SHIMIZU TAKANORI
IPC: G01C21/28
Filed: 2004-10-15
Abstract: A vehicle navigation apparatus is capable of detecting a current vehicle position
with improved accuracy. The reliability factor of a distance coefficient is reduced when
a vehicle runs in an area having a large altitude gradient or when a position detection
error is detected between a current vehicle position calculated using the distance
coefficient and a current vehicle position calculated based on GPS position data. When
the vehicle runs at a high speed, the distance coefficient is modified depending on the
running speed. After the distance coefficient is determined via learning, if a position
detection error is detected for a road which the vehicle has previously traveled, a
position detection cost is assigned to the road. Factors that can cause a position
detection error are minimized, thereby making it possible to detect a current vehicle
position with high accuracy.

Abstract: A swing motor having an opening formed asymmetrically
inside a stator 10. The swing motor is formed with an
asymmetrical opening, in particular in a semicircular shape
inside the stator 10. The opening is provided with a plurality
of salient poles 11 and 12 wound with coils 11a and 12a.
Electric current alternately flows through the coils 11a and
12a so that a rotor 20, installed in the stator 10 in a state
of being spaced apart from the stator 10, can reciprocally
move. Since the height of the stator 10 is reduced by forming
the opening asymmetrically in comparison with the case of
forming the opening symmetrically, it is advantageous for
minimizing the size of the product in which the swing motor is
installed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile terminal equipped with a smart card coupled with an
RFID tag and a method for performing an RFID function in the mobile terminal. The
smart card includes a user information processing section for storing user information
and generating a user information signal including user information, an RFID
information processing section for storing RFID data and generating an RFID signal
including the RFID data, and a main calculating section connected to the user
information processing section in order to control a generation and a transmission of
the user information signal and connected to the RFID information processing section
order to command a generation and a transmission of the RFID signal. When the RFID
tag detects an approach of an RFID interrogator, the RFID tag requests a CPU of the
smart card to perform the RFID function. Thus, the CPU of the smart card transmits a
mode transition signal to a processor of the mobile terminal in order to indicate a mode
transition into an RFID mode. Then, the RFID function is carried out.
