Patent EP-0754377-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RYAN JOHN O
IPC: H04B1/16
Filed: 1995-04-05
Abstract: A system and method of information dissemination that permits the user to listen to the specific content of information when and where he or she wants to. A radio or television receiver system receives information from an FM subcarrier, a television vertical blanking interval transmission, an active picture area television transmission a television separate audio program transmission or a dedicated radio channel and stores the transmitted information in a memory. A user interface allows selection from the memory of the stored information via a set of menus controlling a hierarchical database, so as to access particular items of the information. Typically the system includes RAM and/or a magnetic storage medium such as a digital audio tape, a magneto-optical mini-disk, a magnetic disk or optical disk, sufficient to store information for several hours of audio output. A decompression device accepts the accessed compressed digital audio information items and transforms them into audible speech signals. The user interface is either a voice control or a single or multi-position switch allowing scanning through and selection from the menu items. The system is also capable of transmitting alphanumeric data and converting this alphanumeric data to an audible form using a voice synthesizer.

Abstract: An elongated multi-layer tubing (10) is disclosed for connection to a motor vehicle system to handle fluids containing hydrocarbons. The tubing includes a first layer (14) disposed radially innermost and having an inner surface capable of prolonged exposure to a fluid containing hydrocarbons and an outer surface spaced a first predetermined radial thickness from the inner surface, the first layer (14) consisting essentially of an extrudable, melt-processible thermoplastic. The tubing (10) also includes a second layer (16) having a second predetermined radial thickness at most equal to the thickness of the first layer (14). The second layer (16) is uniformly and homogeneously connected to or bonded to the first layer (14) and consists essentially of an extrudable, melt-processible thermoplastic capable of sufficiently permanent laminar adhesion with the first layer (14) to prevent delamination during a desired lifetime of the tubing. At least one of the first and second layers (14, 16) is resistant to permeation by hydrocarbons. The tubing (10) includes a third layer (12) having a third predetermined radial thickness greater than the thickness of the first layer (14). The third layer (12) is capable of sufficiently permanent laminar adhesion to the second layer (16) to prevent delamination during said desired lifetime of said tubing. The third layer (12) is uniformly and homogeneously connected to or bonded to the second layer (16) and consists essentially of an extrudable, melt-processible thermoplastic. At least one layer of the tubing (10) is capable of dissipating electrostatic energy in a range between about 10?-4 to 10-9 Ohm/cm2¿.

Abstract: An insulated lattice is prepared with a plurality of lattice oriented atoms to create a substantially planar surface having a lattice arrangement. Any unsatisfied chemical bonds are terminated along the substantially planar surface by placing atoms at the site of the unsatisfied chemical bonds to terminate the unsatisfied chemical bonds and insulate the surface to form an insulated lattice platform. Atoms are placed at predetermined locations on the insulated lattice platform to form a first atomic chain which behaves as one of a conductor, a semiconductor and an insulator. A second chain of atoms is also placed at predetermined locations on the insulated lattice platform so that the second chain behaves as another of a conductor, a semiconductor and an insulator. These placements are made such that the second chain of atoms is electrically coupled to the first chain of atoms, and the second chain of atoms behaves differently than the first chain of atoms. That is, in the first chain the atoms are placed at a first separation distance and in the second chain the atoms are placed at a second separation distance, where the second separation distance is different than the first.

Abstract: The drive consists of a separately excited electric motor, with a chopper inverter (6) supplying the motor, a rotor phase position sensor providing a signal (24) for each phase indicating the instantaneous rotor phase position. In a phase correction stage (25) dependent on the rotor rate of movement all phase signals are phase shifted and from one of the phase shifted signals an equivalent sensor signal (27) is obtd. which, after comparison with a reference value (26), is processed to produce a control signal. The control signal is fed to a wave shape generator (28) which provides commutation signals (29-34) to the chopper-inverter to control the amplitude and phase displacement of the power supply. A control stage (36) provides information on the reference value for the phase position of the sensor signals and amplitude or r.m.s. value of the phase voltages (35).

Abstract: A microwave multiphase detector for demultiplexing and regenerating data from an incoming data stream includes N data channels and has a data rate R. For recovering data corresponding to a channel M, a detecting unit receives the data stream, detects a sampling phase corresponding to a data transition on channel M and generates a phase width modulated (pwm) pulse, phase modulated with the sampling phase. A digital to analog (D/A) conversion unit converts the pwm pulse to a contributing control voltage and a data regeneration unit provides a recovered data bit for channel (M). The detector is supplied with N variants of a local clock signal with a rate R/N, each variant being phase displaced with ±360°/N from the adjacent variants. A counterbalancing unit is also provided for each channel, such that if a pwm pulse is indeed generated, the contributing voltage for that pulse is compensated for with a balance pulse of opposed amplitude. In this way, the sampling phase corresponding to the respective M data channel may be adjusted by varying the ratio between the amplitudes of the pwm pulse and the balance pulse.

Abstract: The seal, esp. for a casing containing an explosive substance or a propellant fuel, contains a ring (13) of a material which causes the casing to open along a fracture line (21) in the event of a rise in temperature caused e.g. by a fire, allowing the pyrotechnic compound to spill out and burn without exploding. The ring (13), pref. of zinc, is contained within a cavity in the casing with two thrust faces (12,19) lying parallel to the fracture line (21), and the thrust faces of the ring exert an effort against them perpendicular to the fracture line. In a variant of the design the expansion ring can be fitted round a bolt with a shearing head.

Abstract: The method involves making a blank from a soft metal or alloy, and hammering it to obtain an irregular surface with projections and recesses. At least one coat of paint or similar opaque material is given to the blank. The surface is then brushed to remove the paint from the projections while leaving it in the recesses. After this, a coat of varnish or other transparent protective finish is applied. The initial blank can be made from cast aluminium, zamac or other soft metal, e.g. copper, zinc or tin which is suitable for hammering. It can be carried out in a rotary drum containing hard balls. The paint can be applied in two coats of different colours, with only the second coat removed from the blank's projections.
