Abstract: An integrated drive unit (10) having planetary gearing (12) and an annular cone
brake element (70, 70') affixed to a hydraulic motor barrel (24). A brake piston (66)
encircles the hydraulic motor barrel (24) and is selectively engageable with the cone
brake element (70, 70') to actuate the cone brake element (70, 70') into frictional contact
with the spindle (52) of the integrated drive unit (10) to act as a safety/parking brake.
The cone brake element (70, 70') is formed of a bronze-type powdered metal of sufficient
durability to withstand dynamic braking. The hydraulic motor (14) is selectively
connectable to a transmission (12) including planetary gearing. The planetary gearing
(12) of the present invention includes a planet gear carrier (44) having carrier pins (82)
formed of a relatively low carbon steel and locally hardened over the area on which the
planet gears will be supported. In an alternative embodiment, a carrier pins sleeve (140)
formed of VESPEL is utilized as the bearing between the planet gear (42) and the carrier
pin (82).

Abstract: A system and method controls auto-ignition of gasoline
fuel within a cylinder of an internal combustion engine by
varying an exhaust gas retaining duration. A generator provides
a parameter indicative of combustion event within the cylinder.
An engine controller adjusts an inlet control device and an outlet
control device to retain exhaust gas for subjecting the retained
exhaust gas to compression. In order to vary duration of the
exhaust gas retaining phase, closing timing of the outlet control
device is varied based on the parameter.

Abstract: A switch includes a backplane and multiple packet
processors. One or more packet processors include multi-level
policing logic. The packet processor receives a packet and
classifies the packet into multiple policeable groups. The
packet is compared against bandwidth contracts defined for the
policeable groups. Nested lookups are performed for the packet
in a policing database to identify the multiple groups and to
retrieve policing data for the multiple policeable groups. The
policing results, which may be combined into a single policing
result by taking the worst case policing result, are applied to
disposition logic as recommendations, and are combined with
other disposition recommendations to make a disposition decision
for the packet.

Abstract: A friction device includes an adjustment mechanism for adjusting
the device in response to wear on a friction surface
within the device. The adjustment mechanism includes a
first cam ring and a second cam ring adjacent the first cam
ring. In one embodiment, the first cam ring is adapted for
axial, but non-rotational movement with respect to a cover
of the friction device, the cover being secured to a driving
member for transmitting torque. The second cam ring is
adapted for rotational movement with respect to the cover
and the first cam ring. The first cam ring has a plurality
of annular ramped surfaces on an axial face of the first
cam ring. The second cam ring has a plurality of annular
ramped surfaces on an axial face opposing the axial face of
the first cam ring. The second cam ring is rotated with
respect to the first cam ring such that the ramped surfaces
cam against each other to increase the axial displacement
of the first cam ring and the second cam ring, whereby the
axial displacement is adapted to compensate for wear on a
friction surface of a member of the friction device.

Abstract: A method of driving a display device capable of obtaining a luminance of constant level irrespective of temperature change is provided. A change in luminance of an EL element due to temperature change is prevented by controlling the luminance of the EL element with current instead of voltage. Specifically, a TFT for controlling the amount of current flowing into the EL element is operated in a saturation range. Then a current value I DS  of the TFT is hardly changed by V DS  but is determined solely by V GS . Accordingly, the amount of current flowing in the EL element is kept constant by setting V GS  to such a value as to make the current value I DS  constant. The luminance of the EL element is substantially in proportion to the amount of current flowing through the EL element, and a change in luminance of the EL element upon temperature change can thus be prevented.

the signal of at least the first satellite (SV1); a determination step, in
which said demodulated signal of the first satellite (SV1) is used to
determine the phase of information modulated in the signal; a computing
step to compute the difference in propagation time of the signal
transmitted by said first satellite (SV1) and the signal transmitted by the
second satellite (SV2) from the satellite (SV1, SV2) to the receiver

characteristics, and a production method thereof. An optical fiber includes a
hollow core portion, and a cladding portion which surrounds the hollow core
portion. The refractive index of the hollow core portion is lower than that of

Abstract: A continual process to determines the concentration of carbon monoxide in air, within a confined space holding a bulk charge of a biological mass. In the process, air blows through the bulk charge. The quantity or concentration of carbon monoxide emerging from the bulk charge is continually monitored by a sensor and compared with a maximum permissible threshold value. Should the threshold value be exceeded, the supply of fresh air is terminated. The basic quantity of carbon monoxide is 10 liters/min, and the basic concentration is measured in relation to the incoming air of 1 to 400 ppm. Should the ventilation air be terminated and the concentration of carbon monoxide remain constant at 10 liters/min or increase especially beyond 20 liters/min, or the CO concentration in effluent air exceed 2-800 ppm, the surface of the bulk solid material is covered with a layer of fire-fighting foam. The CO measurements are taken at a number of different sensor stations located in the air inlet and air outlet zones. The bulk solid temperature is monitored by thermal infra-red cameras. The presence of dust is measured and compared with maximum threshold values.
