Patent EP-0850816-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SUGAI MASARU
IPC: B60T8/88
Filed: 1997-12-19
Abstract: An apparatus for diagnosing a fault in a dynamic
system includes a controller which controls the dynamic
system through use of a control input signal and vibrates
the dynamic system through use of an vibration signal
irrelevant to the internal state quantity of the dynamic
system; an observer for estimating, on the basis of a
response output from the vibration dynamic system, total
disturbance which is a sum of an internal disturbance vector
stemming from a fault in the dynamic system and a vibration
disturbance vector occurring in the dynamic system through
vibration; a correlation calculation unit which calculates
cross-correlation between the thus-estimated total
disturbance and the internal state quantity of the dynamic
system and separates a component related to the internal
disturbance from the total disturbance; and a diagnostic
unit for diagnosing a fault in the dynamic system on the
basis of the thus-separated component related to the
internal disturbance. Since the dynamic system is vibrated,
the response output can be increased even when there exists
small external disturbance. As a result, a fault or a
variation in air pressure in a tire can be highly accurately
diagnosed.

Abstract: An enzyme-treated hesperidin, comprising alpha-glucosyl
hesperidin, hesperidin and beta-monoglucosyl
hesperetin, 
   wherein the content of hesperidin is 0.1 part or
less by weight; and that of beta-monoglucosyl hesperetin,
0.1 to 0.5 part by weight, on the basis of 1 part by
weight of alpha-glucosyl hesperidin. 
     The present invention also provides a process to
produce enzyme-treated hesperidin, which comprises
subjecting a solution containing alpha-glucosyl hesperidin
and intact hesperidin to alpha-L-rhamnosidase to convert
the intact hesperidin into beta-monoglucosyl hesperetin. 
     The enzyme-treated hesperidin which is excellent
in water solubility and is free from crystal precipitation
(clouding) even if stored for a prolonged period of time

Abstract: A board game is provided having a generally rectangular game board including
an undulating bottom surface defining parallel valleys having a part cylindrical shape
and formed about parallel axes extending transversely of the board. Ball player
assemblies are mounted to rotate about respective ones of the parallel axes, and
slidable axially so that a game player can move the ball player into position to pick
up a ball lying in an associated one of the valleys below the ball player. Targets are
mounted on the respective end walls and each of the ball players has a body and an
arm assembly rotatable relative to the body for rotation between a pick-up and a
delivery position about said axis. The arm assembly defines a scoop which moves
adjacent the valley to engage a ball and, after receiving the ball, the ball can be
projected by continuing the movement and stopping suddenly so that the ball flies
out of the scoop and towards a target.

Abstract: A switching system comprising a switching structure (1130) for routing cells from a set of M
input ports towards a set of M output ports. The systems further includes a set of distributed
individual Switch Core Access Layer elements (S.C.A.L.) (1000) which communicating with one
input and output port of the switching structure by means of a set of serial communication links
(1400, 1600). Each SCAL element provides attachment to at least one Protocol Adapter
(Protocol Engine 1600- 1900), and comprises a set of circuits (PINT 511-515; 611-614), each
PINT circuit being associated with a corresponding one of said at least Protocol Adapter
(Protocol Engine 1600-1900). The receive part of each circuit receives the data cells from the
attached Protocol Adapter (Protocol Engine 1600) and includes at least one first FIFO storage
(701-704) for storing the cells being received. Additionaly, there is introduced at least one extra
byte to every cell, which at least one extra byte is reserved for a routing header dedicated for
controlling either the routing process within the switching structure. Each transmit part of the
destination PINT circuit comprises at least one second FIFO storage (801-802) having a
substantially greater capacity than said of said first FIFO storage. Every Transmit part receives all
the cells that are generated at the corresponding output port but uses the at least one extrabyte for
determining whether or not the cell is to be entered into the at least second FIFO contained in a
considered PINT circuit. Additionaly, each distributed individual SCAL element comprises
control means for performing Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) access of the at least one first
FIFO and second FIFO so that the high rate communication between the switching structure and
SCALs can be distributed between the different Protocol Adapters. A set of serializer/deserializer
permit the use of cheap serialized communication links between the centralized switching system
and the different SCAL elements.

Abstract: A female power contact (9) which is energized only upon insertion of a male
plug (5). The contact (9) includes a plunger (21) which is biased toward a position
which blocks accidental finger insertion into the contact. The plunger (21)
also contains sharp points on its outer edge to further prevent accidental finger
insertion into the contact. However, insertion of the male plug (5) into the
female power contact (9), against the spring (25) bias, causes the plunger (21)
to depress the spring (25) in order to produce an electrical connection between
the male plug (5) and female contact (9).

Abstract: A volume rendering system re-samples voxels read from
a voxel memory to generate samples along perspective
rays cast from a center of projection using a level
of detail value. Color computations are performed
with the samples to produce pixels for a baseplane
image. The level of detail is computed, at each plane
of samples perpendicular to a principal viewing axis,
from the current sample position and the distance
between the center of projection and the baseplane;
the principal viewing axis is the coordinate axis in
a rendered volume most parallel with a viewing
vector. The level of detail provides a measure of the
distance between tow neighboring perspective rays at
each plane and is used to determine the number of
voxels and weights for these voxels required to compute
a single sample at each plane. Multi-resolution
datasets prepared for different levels of details are
used to simplify the resampling operation by limiting
the number of voxels required to compute a single
sample.

Abstract: A trunk apparatus prevents a signal error
due to a fluctuation in an optical power in a WDM
communication system. A monitoring and controlling
signal transmitting and receiving circuit (49) sends
transmission power information regarding a
transmission power monitored by a transmission power
monitor (32) to an immediately proceeding trunk
apparatus located on a downstream side of the local
trunk apparatus. The monitoring and controlling
signal transmitting and receiving circuit (49)
receives transmission power information sent from an
immediately preceding trunk apparatus located on an
upstream side of the local trunk apparatus, and
sends the received transmission power information to
an automatic gain control circuit (43). The
automatic gain control circuit (43) controls the
optical amplifier based on the transmission power
information received from the immediately preceding
trunk apparatus so as to equalize the transmission
power of the local trunk apparatus to the
transmission power of the immediately preceding
trunk apparatus.

Abstract: This invention reduces the possibility of causing waits

outputs trace information such as execution address, data,
processor status. Trace information is output in a variable
length packet format. Because this makes it possible to
complete sending one unit of trace information in a shorter
time on the average than the conventional practice, the
probability that trace information overruns occur during a
real-time trace is reduced.

connected elements and the similarity in thickness (Fig. 5A).
Then, the character recognition level of a group is

weighted by the area of a rectangular area. Using a
total of the weighted values as an evaluation value

combinations in all groups (Fig. 5B). The combination of the
groups having the highest evaluation value is
extracted as a character string (Fig. 5C).
