Abstract: Echo time cancellation may be determined in a full duplex system 300 by providing an echo time determiner 302 which samples signals on either the transmit path 105 or the receive path 106. Once sampled, the signals are then filtered via smoothing filter 402 at a first smoothing parameter. Each filtered signal sample 403 is then compared with a first threshold and this comparison is sequentially done until a filtered signal sample is favorable with the first predetermined threshold. When the first signal sample is favorable to the first predetermined threshold, the beginning echo time is determined and the smoothing parameter is adjusted to a second smoothing parameter and the threshold is adjusted to a second predetermined threshold. Upon making these adjustments, the signal samples are again filtered over this time with the second smoothing parameter. The second filtered signals are then compared with the second threshold until a second filtered signal is favorable with the second predetermined threshold. When this occurs, the end of the echo is determined.

Abstract: There is provided a process for producing MMA characterized by comprising the steps of: introducing an α-hydroxyisobutyric acid amide (HAM) production solution 5 into a thermal decomposition reactor 6; decomposing and separating non-reacted acetone cyanohydrin (ACH) to produce a HAM aqueous solution 11; contacting the HAM aqueous solution with ion exchange resins 12 and 13; dehydrating-hydrating it at a dehydration-hydration reactor 17 to produce methacrylic acid and/or methacrylamide 18 to which methanol 21 is added, which is esterified at an esterification reactor 22 to produce methyl methacrylate (MMA); contacting the MMA product 23 with a hydrophobic organic solvent 25 to extract MMA; separating MMA 42 by distillation; using the solvent 25, from which MMA is separated, for the liquid-liquid extraction; recovering methanol and by-product ammonia contained in the raffinate solution 27; using the methanol 37 as the starting material for the esterification reaction; using, for the ACH synthesis, a mixture 10 of the acetone and the hydrocyanic acid discharged from the thermal decomposition reactor 6; and recycling the resultant ACH as a starting material for the hydration reaction. 
     The present invention permits production of MMA of high purity, elongating the lifetime of the catalyst. In addition, the recovered product(s) may be recycled. The present invention is thus suitable for industrial production of MMA.

Abstract: An efficient method and system within a data processing system for storing address tags are disclosed, which include a tag directory having a plurality of congruence classes, wherein each congruence class is arranged as a tree-like data structure. A portion of an address tag common to a plurality of address tags is stored in an entry within a node at a first level of a tree-like data structure corresponding to a congruence class of the directory. Portions of the plurality of address tags are stored in a node at a subsequent level of the tree-like data structure, such that all of the plurality of address tags share in common the portion stored in the entry within the node at the first level. Since a portion common to a plurality of address tags is stored only once, the memory space required to store the plurality of address tags is reduced.

Abstract: A method for measuring the temp. and the level of a molten electrolysis bath or electrolyte in a tank for the prodn. of aluminium involves the periodic immersion of a temp. probe into the electrolyte to a determined depth that is withdrawn from the electrolyte before having attained the equilibrium temperature, then determining this temp. by extrapolation from the intermediate temperatures acquired by means of a pre-established calculation programme. In parallel with this temperature measurement, the level of the electrolyte (HT) in the tank is measured from a reference point by recording the variation in voltage between the cathodic substrate and the probe, from which the position is determined by a potentiometer and of which the voltage increases sharply when the lower end of the probe comes into contact with the electrolyte. The level of the metal (HM) can be determined in a similar manner at the electrolyte/liquid metal interface enabling the deduction of the thickness of the electrolyte (HB = HT-HM). The device used to carry out the measurements is also claimed.

Date Jul. 13, 1995A bicycle lighting system comprising a dynamo generator, integrated rechargeable batteries and an integrated electronic circuitry, the bicycle being an exemplary embodiment of pedal-driven vehicles provided with standard front and rear lamps. Hitherto known systems operate with conventional dynamos having an efficiency far too low to provide power to energize lamps and simultaneously charge batteries at speeds below 15 kmph. The inventive generator is constructed such that a rotating magnetic-circuit arrangement with a stationary air-core coil and specially defined pole shoes achieve 90% efficiency. At 5 to 7 kmph, at least 4 W energy is available for energizing lamps and rapidly charging batteries. From standstill to approximately 5 kmph, the batteries energize the lamps. The electronic circuitry comprises a converter having a special voltage set-up and voltage set-down function such that for a determinate output voltage, the input voltage can be lesser than, equal to or greater than the determinate output voltage. Above 5 kmph, energy apportioning for energizing lamps and simultaneously charging batteries in ratios of 1-2:1 is rendered possible.

Title: Self-closing boxes
Inventor: WOLLEN LAURA VIRGINIA
IPC: B65D5/20
Filed: 1995-01-16
Abstract: A box, formed by folding from a flat creased cardboard blank of thin and resilient material, is of generally polyhedral shape and has an edge (the closure line) (25) at which two faces (the closure faces) (17, 18) meet separately; pressing the vertices at the ends of that line together (at 26) splays those faces resiliently apart (at 27) along that line to allow access to the interior of the box. The closure line may be closed by temporary sealing means (e.g., peelable adhesive tape or a tear-off closure strip) (37-39). The closure faces may have an overlap (Figs. 3A-3C) for firmer closure; the overlap may be initially folded in to form a "pillow pack" (Fig. 4). A variety of shapes are possible, preferably having a flat base with the closure line lying above and parallel to the base. One basic shape is a triangular prism lying on its side (Figs. 2A and 2B); another is a rectangular base with, rising from it, four vertical sides with their top ends sloped in zig-zag fashion, and closed by two sloping triangular top faces - the side faces may be trapeziform (Fig. 5) or triangular (Fig. 6). The boxes may be nested together in partially assembled form with open bases. The boxes may be stored flat, with their bases automatically assembling when they are opened out.

Abstract: A vehicle startup approval device for encripting an identification code, which is stored in an electronic key. A startup approval ECU (1) magnetically couples with a transmit-receive control circuit (6) of an electronic key (3) through an antenna (2) and an antenna (5) of the electronic key (3) in a state where the electronic key (3) is inserted into an ignition switch (4) and supplies power. The startup approval ECU (1) transmits a random number code when the ignition switch (4) is operated to an ACC position. Upon receipt of the random number code, the transmit-receive control circuit (6) of the electronic key (3) converts a key code, which has been beforehand registered, into a return code through a predetermined code processing on the basis of the random number code, and sends back the return code. Upon receipt of the return code, the startup approval ECU (1) decodes it to a key code on the basis of the random number code, and outputs a startup approval signal to an engine control ECU (7) when the key code matches the key code registered beforehand.
