IPC: G07F7/10
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: The method provides services using a smart card 10 (or 100 or 200). The
services are provided by a third party other than the OEM of the smart card. The method
comprises the following steps. The method generates 1506 a plurality of data, where each
of the data comprises information for activating a service associated with an electrical
apparatus. The method also generates 1505 an indicium associated with each data. The
method then programmes 1518 a smart card by loading said plurality of data into a
memory of said smart card and applying each indicium 1516 to a surface of the smart
card. The method also comprises loading the smart card into a smart card reader 1604
and selecting 1608 any one of the indicia. The method then activates the service by
communicating 1614 the selected data to the electrical apparatus.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method, a system and
an interface circuit for identifying a defective plug-in
unit in a computer system comprising a CompactPCI
bus (PCI) and plug-in units (2) connected to it via an
interface circuit (1). In the method, the bus address
being used in the bus is transferred into a first register
(A) and the bus address is transferred in conjunction
with a reboot from the first register (A)
into the second register (B). The bus address can be
read for fault diagnosis from the second register (B)
by means of an operation and maintenance facility (4). 
     The invention makes it possible to locate
faults in situations where bus release is not monitored
in conjunction with the addressing sequence. In
this situation, e.g. the DEVSEL# signal is active and
the TRDY# signal inactive.

method of manufacturing the pneumatic tire having improved
tire uniformity characteristics is disclosed. The carcass
reinforcement ply (820) has a plurality of reinforcement
cords (821) embedded in a matrix material that can be

Title: Vorrichtung und Verfahren zur druckgeregelten Versorgung aus einem Flüssiggastank mit einem Wärmetauscher
Inventor: KRUELL JOACHIM
IPC: F17C13/02
Filed: 2001-08-10
Abstract: Bei Tankeinrichtungen für flüssiggasbetriebene Fahrzeuge erfolgt ein nur sehr langsamer Druckaufbau bis Erreichen eines gewünschten Betriebsdrucks. Der Einbau von Heizeinrichtungen im Tankinnern führt zu Wärmebrücken, welche die Speicherdauer des Tanks herabsetzen. 
     Erfindungsgemäß wird Flüssiggas aus einem Speicherbehälter entnommen, durch eine Flüssiggaszuleitung einem Wärmetauscher zugeführt und dort verdampft. Das verdampfte Flüssiggas wird über eine Gasrückleitung anschließend zumindest teilweise dem Speicherbehälter wieder zugeführt. Durch Einsatz von Rückschlagventilen in der Flüssiggaszuleitung sowie in der Gasrückleitung werden gerichtete Druckpulsationen hergestellt, die einen raschen Wärmeeintrag in das Innere des Speicherbehälters bewirken. Eine Entnehme von Gas für einen Verbraucher erfolgt zweckmäßigerweise auf der der Flüssiggaszuführung strömungstechnisch abgewandten Seite des Wärmetauschers. 
     Durch die Erfindung wird ein rascher Druckanstieg im Speicherbehälter erreicht, gleichzeitig wird der Wärmeeintrag durch Wärmebrücken oder thermoakustischen Schwingungen gegenüber Vorrichtungen nach dem Stande der Technik vermindert. Herstellungs- und Wartungskosten des Speicherbehälters werden verringert und der Einsatz einfacher Lecksuchverfahren erleichtert.

Abstract: A fuel pump comprising a plurality of radially spaced pumping arrangements
(10a, 10b, 10c), each of which includes a pumping plunger (20a, 20b, 20c)
which is reciprocable within a plunger bore (19a, 19b, 19c) formed in a pump
housing (18) under the influence of a respective driven tappet member (24a,
24b, 24c) which acts to transmit a force to the pumping plunger (20a, 20b,
20c) during a forward stroke thereof. The plunger bore (19a, 19b, 19c)
defines a pumping chamber (22a, 22b, 22c) within which pressurisation of
fuel to a relatively high level occurs upon reciprocal movement of the
pumping plunger within the plunger bore. An end region of the tappet
member (24a, 24b, 24c) is provided with a further bore (70a, 70b, 70c), a
surface associated with the end region of the tappet member (24a, 24b, 24c)
defining, in part, an annular auxiliary pumping chamber (40a, 40b, 40c) for
fuel, the further bore (70a, 70b, 70c) defining a working chamber (51a, 51b,
51c) arranged to receive fuel to generate a force on the tappet member (24a,
24b, 24c) which acts in a return direction so as to increase the volume of the
pumping chamber (22a, 22b, 22c) during a return stroke of the pumping
plunger. The fuel pump further comprises a transfer pressure flow path (43)
providing communication between the auxiliary pumping chamber (40a, 40b,
40c) of a first pumping arrangement (10a) and the pumping chamber (22b,
22c) of at least one of the other pumping arrangements (10a, 10b) such that
fuel displaced from the auxiliary pumping chamber (40a, 40b, 40c), in use,
can be supplied through the transfer pressure flow path (43) to said at least
one of the other pumping chambers (22b, 22c). The auxiliary pumping
chambers (40a, 40b, 40c) and the transfer pressure flow path (43) are 
constructed and adapted to ensure fuel flows through the transfer pressure
flow path (43) at a substantially constant flow rate for a given speed of
rotation of the pump.

Abstract: A signal transfer circuit (41) in a pre-drive circuit (32-1) converts the reference potential of a control signal, supplied from a drive control circuit, to the reference potential of an output element. The control signal is then amplified in a signal amplifier circuit (42) and thereafter supplied to the output element. This makes it possible to isolate the reference potential and transfer the control signal to the output element even when the reference potentials of the drive control circuit and the control signal are different from that of the output element. The drive control circuit can also be prevented from being affected by variations in potential of the output element or the like.
