Patent EP-0511012-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DAIGLE RONALD E
IPC: G01B17/00
Filed: 1992-04-24
Abstract: A method of position sensing using ultrasound that allows unconstrained motion of a scanhead 12,80 or sensing probe. Combined with ultrasound echo sensing, a static, B-mode ultrasound imaging system is obtained that does not require mechanical arms or similar structures. The signal acquisition means comprises a scanhead 12 having two or more ultrasound transducers 70-74, 90-94 that convert echoes from a subject into echo signals. For B-mode imaging, an image processor 32 processes the echo signals to produce intensity data for a scan line 16 having a known orientation with respect to the scanhead 12. The echo signals are Doppler processed to produce position data representing the relative positions of a series of scan lines 16, and a scan converter combines the intensity and position data to produce a two-dimensional image of the subject. The scan converter first processes samples along each scan line to produce intermediate intensity values, and then combines intermediate intensity values for adjacent scan lines to produce the output image.

Abstract: A facsimile apparatus for tele-copying an original image has reading means to read a multi-color original image so as to obtain plural sets of color image data and a set of integrated image data. Each set of the color image represents an image of a color in the muti-color image and the integrated image is a total image formed by all colors of the multi-color image. Memeory means of the apparatus separately stores each image data set. In transmitting the image data to a receiving station, a transmitter of the apparatus selects necessary data sets from the stored image data sets based on printing capability of the receiving station and transmits only the selected data sets.

Abstract: The invention relates both to signal diplexers and to means for coupling the energies from sources which provide in-phase signals of like amplitude. The energy coupling means and the diplexer are not mounted in series but nested. This is achieved by arranging two filters (F1, F2) on the inputs of the output junction (B) of the coupling means (E1-En, Rd1-Rdn, D1-Dn, C1, C2, B) for a first signal (I) and by applying a second signal (S) to the output junction (B) of the coupling means so as to have it reflected by the two filters which reject this second signal and pass the first signal (I). Application, in particular, in television transmitters. <IMAGE>

Abstract: For detecting the position of a magnetic element (5) having a field component (B Z ) zeroing in at least one point in space, typically in a plane (β), use is made of an array of elementary Hall-effect sensors (S i ) aligned side by side in a direction (X) perpendicular to the field component in question and to the current (I) flowing through the elementary sensors. The elementary sensor (S r ) generating a zero output voltage therefore indicates the zero position of the field component and consequently the position of the magnetic element (5) in relation to the position sensor (1), so that the outputs of the elementary sensors provide a quantized numeric code indicating the position of the magnetic element.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un appareil qui permettent de joindre de façon séparable deux éléments (21/22; 51/52) en plusieurs points le long de leurs bords respectifs (23/24; 53a/54) et sans déplacement longitudinal de ces bords pendant ou après la fermeture du joint. A cet effet, une clavette mobile (44; 61) est amenée à avancer entre des paires de points (35-38/41, 42; 55, 58) recevant la force, qui sont reliés à chacun des deux éléments. Au fur et à mesure que la clavette avance dans la direction du sommet, les paires de points sont contraints de s'éloigner et, en réaction directe, les bords correspondants sont attirés l'un vers l'autre. L'invention décrit des variantes apportées à deux modes de réalisation principaux dont l'un est linéaire et l'autre circulaire. Dans le mode de réalisation linéaire, deux portes, deux panneaux ou deux barres peuvent être joints. Les modes de réalisation circulaires permettent de joindre entre eux des pièces tubulaires ou des tiges rondes ou de fixer un bouchon circulaire sur un récipient ou sur un élément d'enceinte. L'invention peut également être réalisée sous la forme de kits servant à joindre des éléments linéaires ou circulaires. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, un matériau de garniture étanche (59) et/ou tout autre composant similaire est placé et maintenu en position fixe entre les bords correspondants.

Abstract: A sensor for force, acceleration and magnetism which can make high precision detection without temperature compensation and moreover, can be produced by a simple production process. The peripheral portion of a flexible disc-like substrate (10) is fixed to a sensor casing, and an operation member (50) is bonded to the central portion. An X, Y, Z three-dimensional coordinates system is defined with respect to an origin (O) inside the substrate (10), and four sets of detectors (D1 to D4) are disposed along the X axis. Each detector has a sandwich structure in which piezoelectric devices (21,23) are sandwiched between upper electrodes (31-34) and lower electrodes (41-44). When force (Fx) in the direction of the X axis acts on the operation member (50), the substrate (10) undergoes deflection and a positive or negative charge occurs in each electrode. The mode of generation of the charge depends on the direction of the acting force, and the quantity of the generated charge depends on the magnitude of the acting force. Therefore, the component of the acting force in each direction can be detected on the basis of the charge generation pattern.
