Title: Recording head to optimize high density recording
IPC: G11B5/265
Filed: 1990-03-05
Abstract: To optimize high density recording by reduction of hooks on ends of transitions, the recording head has 
at least two poles with a gap section inbetween and configured with the second pole (P₂) and gap section (g) being greater in 
width than the first pole (P₁). Transverse field components are reduced at the head fringes and the transition becomes 
substantially parallel to gap. The vertical components of the head field are also minimized. Method for producing head with 
narrow first pole (P₁) includes planarization of first pole area to receive wider gap layer (g) and wider second pole (P₂).
Patent EP-0388107-A3 (EP)
Title: Vehicle control apparatus and method therefor
IPC: B60W10/10
Filed: 1990-03-12
Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus and method therefor has a number of 
controllers (50, 63, 56) interconnected with one another by a data 
highway (10), the engine controllers being formed for example by a CPU. 
The engine controllers are each connected to a sensor for sensing a 
vehicle parameter and the controllers are also connected to a respective 
actuator (53, 58) for varying the associated vehicle parameter. The 
apparatus is arranged so that the controllers operate in cooperation 
with one another so that two or more controllers cooperate to control 
the same object or purpose. As an example (shown in Figure 20) an 
engine controller (50) provides torque data to a transmission controller 
(63) which in turn provides data to a throttle controller (56), whereby 
a gear shift is effected by the transmission controller (63) in 
synchronism with the throttle controller (56) changing the position of a 
throttle actuator so that a jerk-free gear shift is effected. In 
another embodiment (shown in Figure 33) an engine controller (50) 
cooperates with a throttle controller (56) and a suspension controller 
(64) whereby data from the engine controller determining whether the 
vehicle is accelerating or braking is transmitted to the throttle 
controller (56) and the suspension controller (64) and the throttle 
position is adjusted in synchronism with the suspension controller (64) 
for adjusting the front-back ride height of the vehicle. Thus, for 
example, when the vehicle is braking, the throttle controller closes the 
throttle and the suspension controller increases the ride height of the 
front dampers and reduces the ride height of the rear dampers. Other 
embodiments control ignition timing and fuel injection in cooperation 
with gear shift (Figure 37), control fuel injection pulse width and 
ignition timing in cooperation with a knock detector controller (Figure 
49), and upon detection of abnormal data received from sensors display a 
warning of the abnormality, and in the event of seriously abnormal data 
being detected transmits a pseudo signal to ensure that the vehicle 
keeps running.

Patent EP-0704954-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01R31/36
Filed: 1992-02-14
Abstract: A rechargeable battery is charged by connecting the terminals of the battery to an electrical power source. In order to avoid overcharging and undue temperature increase in the battery cell, the course of a least one charging parameter, such as the increase rate of the voltage, is surveyed during at least part of the process of charging the battery. This charging parameter surveyed is compared with a number of reference parameter courses representing idealistic or desireable processes of charging the battery for different starting states of charge of the battery. Such comparisons may for example be made by means of a microprocessor, which may also select the reference course with a starting state of charge similar to the actual starting state of charge of the battery. Thereafter the process of charging the battery may be controlled so as to approximate the course of said charging parameter to the selected reference course. The charging voltage may be limited to a maximum value (Vmax). When such value has been reached the charging process may be terminated after a certain predetermined time period being one of the reference values. <IMAGE>

(4) so as to move the piston (2) in response to fluid flow to maintain a
substantially constant pressure drop between the inlet (5) and outlet (11),
each unique axial position of the piston (2) within the cylinder (1)
indicating a particular flow rate. A transducer (20) senses the position of
the piston (2) and thus the direction and rate of flow.
