Patent EP-0717525-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KOBAYASHI MASAYUKI
IPC: F02D45/00
Filed: 1995-10-25
Abstract: An asynchronous serial communication device in which data transmitted at different speeds coexist and are exchanged, time losses when errors are generated are effectively eliminated, asynchronous serial data communications for diagnosing failures are performed between a diagnosing tool (5) and an electronic controller (1, 2) via a communications line (3). In performing the data communications, first data are exchanged between these devices at a low transmission speed (5bps) and then by switching the speed to high speed (10.4Kbps) various data are exchanged. In a case where communication errors are generated during exchanging, the operation is started again from the data exchanging at the low speed. Here, the edges of the data sampled at the low speed are detected by an edge detecting terminal provided in a communication circuit (17), a communication error is identified when a difference between first edge detecting time and next edge detecting time is shorter than 1 bit time of the low transmission speed data, and based on further next edge detecting timing the data receiving by the low speed sampling is started over again.

The system is managed by an instruction decoder (DI) and a management unit (AC). The instructions in a program of instructions (1C) are divided sequentially among the memories and conditional jump instructions are accommodated by the management unit (AC). The memories operate at a frequency inversely proportional to their number but the multiplexer (MUX1) enables instructions to be supplied to the processor (UT) at normal frequency.

Abstract: A shrink sleeve of expanded synthetic material, particularly for the joints of jackets on pre-insulated district heating pipes (10), is provided with a series of corrugations or folds (5) which extend over at least a half of the periphery of the sleeve. The height of the corrugations (5) varies from a maximum on the one side of the sleeve to a minimum on the other side, preferably so that the one side of the sleeve is completely smooth. The effect of the asymmetrical folds (5) is that the sleeve can easily be adapted for a joining of the pipes in a bend. The side of the sleeve which lies outermost at the bend is thus capable of being stretched without the inner side of the bend being crumpled together. Consequently, the subsequent shrinking by influence from a gas flame will be able to be effected so that the shrunken sleeve lies smoothly up against both the outer side and the inner side of the bend.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne la sécurité relative aux bases de données dans une grande base de données présentant un grand nombre d'utilisateurs. Dans une base de données présentant un grand nombre d'utilisateurs appartenant à des groupements naturels de clients, un rôle particulier d'administration de systèmes peut être établi pour chaque client, en plus du rôle d'administration centrale donnant accès sans restriction à la totalité de la base de données. Un client représentant ici une seule organisation, ou un seul département, lequel présente un certain nombre d'utilisateurs de la base de données, nécessite l'accès seulement à certains des ensembles de valeurs stockées dans la base de données et pour n'utiliser que certaines des applications disponibles dans la base de données. Le rôle d'administration de clients n'a accès qu'aux parties de la base de données auxquelles le groupe de clients dans son ensemble a la permission d'accéder. Ce rôle permet à un administrateur de clients de gérer des droits d'accès d'utilisateurs appartenant au même groupement de clients, et exécutant des opérations sensibles pouvant impliquer une perte de données pour le client. L'administrateur de clients n'a aucun pouvoir sur ses propres droits d'accès, lesquels sont gérés par un administrateur central.

Abstract: A fluid-powered rotary actuator for providing rotary movement between first and second external members. The actuator includes a cylindrical body with first and second ends. The body is adapted for coupling to the first external member, and a shaft extending generally coaxially within the body and supported for rotation relative thereto. The shaft having an adjustable end limit of rotation relative to the body. The shaft has an end portion adapted for coupling to the second external member to provide rotational movement between the first and second external members. An annular body insert is positioned coaxial with the body and at least partially within the body at the body first end. The body insert is formed as a separate part from the body and is adjustably rotatable relative to the body to permit adjustment of the end limit of rotation of the shaft relative to the body. The body insert is restrained by the body against axial movement relative to the body during powered operation of the actuator. An end cap is securely attached to the body at the body first end and spaced axially outward of and away from the body insert to define a compartment therebetween. An adjustment member extends through an aperture in the end cap with an interior portion within the end cap compartment in position to engage the body insert and an exterior portion accessible from the exterior of the end cap compartment. The adjustable member is adjustably movable in the aperture to apply an adjustment force on the body insert to adjustably rotate the body insert relative to the body to a selected rotational position relative to the body in order to adjust the end limit of rotation of the shaft relative to the body. The adjustment member, when not being adjustably moved in the aperture, holds the body insert to prevent its rotation from the selected rotational position relative to the body. A piston is mounted within the body and is reciprocally axially movable therein in response to selective application of pressurized fluid thereto. A torque-transmitting annular member is positioned generally coaxially within the body for movement with the piston. The torque-transmitting member drivingly engages both a grooved sidewall portion of the shaft and a grooved sidewall portion of the body insert as the torque-transmitting member reciprocally moves within the body.

Abstract: A code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile communication system with improvements to permit stable reception with a minimum of bit error. The system comprises a voltage-controlled oscillator (63) for supplying a carrier to a radio frequency quadrature demodulator (57), and a frequency controller (70) for detecting a frequency error from a phase correction signal of the first step to generate a control signal that controls the oscillator (63). The frequency controller (70) includes an extracting circuit and an integrating circuit. The extracting circuit extracts a phase change based on the frequency error derived from the phase correction signal of the first step and from a signal preceding that signal by a predetermined delay time. The integrating circuit integrates the phase change and outputs the integrated result as the control signal. The predetermined delay time is preferably set within a range not exceeding the delay time needed for averaging by an averaging circuit that receives the phase correction signal of the first step and outputs a phase correction signal. The carrier to a radio frequency quadrature modulator (66) is preferably supplied from the voltage-controlled oscillator (63).

Abstract: A method for encrypting a plaintext string into ciphertext begins by cipher block chaining (CBC) (70) the plaintext using a first key and a null initialization vector to generate a CBC message authentication code (MAC) whose length is equal to the block length. The plaintext string is then cipher block chained (72) again, now using a second key and the CBC-MAC as the initialization vector, to generate an enciphered string. The CBC-MAC and a prefix of the enciphered string comprising all of the enciphered string except the last block are then combined (74) to create the ciphertext. The described mode of operation is length-preserving, yet has the property that related plaintexts give rise to unrelated ciphertexts.
