Patent EP-0737001-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TORPEY PETER A
IPC: B41J19/14
Filed: 1996-04-03
Abstract: A method for printing an image with a color liquid ink printer (58) having a bidirectional scanning carriage printhead for printing a swath of the image. The printer prints a swath of information according to a first color transform processor in a first direction of the bidirectional scanning carriage printhead and prints a swath of information according to a second color transform processor in a second direction of the bidirectional scanning carriage printhead. A first lookup table (52) is generated for converting device independent color information to device dependent information for printing in a forward swath of the reciprocating carriage. A second lookup table (54) is generated for converting device independent color information to device dependent information for printing in the reverse direction. Although the order of inking is reversed in the reverse direction, color banding is reduced or eliminated since different lookup tables are used for printing information in different directions.

Abstract: An offset circuit (2) detects an offset word serving as a synchronization pattern. By being triggered by the detection, main and subordinate synchronization detection circuits (5 and 6) detect the periodicity of the offset word only during a predetermined backward guard period. Both synchronization detection circuits (5 and 6) detect offset words at different timings. Therefore, if one synchronization detection circuit (5 or 6) fails in detection of synchronization, it is possible to use a detection result of the other synchronization detection circuit (5 or 6). Moreover, received data during the backward guard period is stored in a data memory (11). Therefore, it is possible to use the stored data as received data after detection of synchronization. Even after establishment of synchronization, the synchronization detection circuit (5 or 6) continuously detects the periodicity of an offset word at a timing different from an established timing. Therefore, when established synchronization is incorrect, it can immediately be corrected.

Abstract: A modular electrical connector assembly to which an electrical telecommunication cable is connectable for communicating electrical signals between the connector assembly and cable. The connector assembly includes an electrically nonconductive body and a crosstalk energy emitting electrical interference source on the body and/or on or proximate the connector assembly. Electrically conductive first and second leads on the body define an electrical signal circuit for carrying electrical signals communicatable with the cable. The first lead is located more closely proximate to the interference source than is the second lead such that a greater amount of crosstalk energy from the interference source is electromagnetically impressed on the first lead than on the second lead to thereby define a difference in crosstalk energy on the first and second leads. A parasitic sized RF chip capacitor connects the interference source to the second lead for transferring crosstalk energy therethrough in an amount sufficient to substantially equalize crosstalk energy on the first and second leads and thereby reduce crosstalk-induced interference in the electrical signal circuit. In this manner and existing Category 3 connector assembly (10 Mbs) is transformed into a Category 5 connector assembly (100 Mbs) for use with signal transmission by optical fiber to buildings and the like.

Abstract: An encoded marker is transmitted as a paging signal for mobile satellite telephones. The signal is susceptible to Doppler effects, and the processing procedures are arranged to determine the Doppler characteristics of subsequent signals. The marker takes the form of a first frequency sweep occurring in a first direction followed by a second frequency sweep occurring in the opposite direction. The markers are correlated against sweep signatures to produce amplitude peaks. The mid-point between the peaks and the spacing between the peaks allows timing offsets and frequency shifts to be accurately calculated, thereby facilitating the processing of subsequent data signals.

Title: Sonde nasogastrique auto-guidee dans les conduits et procede associe
Inventor: KLINGENSTEIN RALPH JAMES
IPC: A61J15/00
Filed: 1996-10-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne une sonde nasogastrique perfectionnée possédant une pointe souple accouplée ou monobloc qui facilite l'insertion et l'avancement de la sonde dans le rhinopharynx et l'estomac d'un patient tout en réduisant le risque de lésion des fosses nasales et de perforation de l'oesophage et d'autres tissus mous. La forme géométrique et le matériau constitutif de la pointe et du corps de la sonde sont choisis de sorte que la pointe se déforme de préférence avant le corps de la sonde lorsqu'elle rencontre des obstacles dus à l'architecture morphologique lors de l'avancement de la sonde. Cette déformation de la pointe permet le guidage passif de celle-ci et du corps de la sonde à travers les fosses nasales et le long du conduit oesophagien, à la différence des sondes nasogastriques classiques qui ont tendance à déplacer ou perforer la structure des organes voisins. La pointe peut être cylindrique, tronconique, effilée, bulbiforme, cannelée et rainurée. Elle peut être creuse ou pleine, symétrique ou asymétrique, et peut comporter un renfort pour modifier sa résistance au flambage. Une ou plusieurs zones de transition peuvent être ménagées pour assurer la transition entre les structures de la sonde présentant des valeurs différentes de résistance au flambage.

Abstract: A lock-up clutch (4) by way of which input/output shafts (1a, 2a) of a torque converter (2) are operatively connected to each other is connected to an electronic type pressure control valve (4). During speed changing in a transmission, a problem of interruption of transmission of torque can be solved by turning off the lock-up clutch (4) at the time point when filling of one of speed changing clutches (21 to 24) to be next brought in an operatively engaged state with hydraulic oil is completed. Hydraulic pressure (P t ) in the torque converter (2) is exerted on the back pressure portion of a piston of the lock-up clutch (4), while hydraulic pressure (P t ) in the torque converter (2) is exerted on the proportional solenoid (42) side of the pressure control valve (40). This makes it possible to reduce the initial hydraulic pressure. During speed changing, the lock-up clutch (4) is not fully released from the engaged state but it maintains its operative state at low pressure, causing shock caused by shifting the lock-up state to be reduced. When hydraulic pressure is gradually increased, an extent of opening of the throttle, weight of the vehicle and the current gear ratio are derived so as to vary a rate of the gradual increase of hydraulic pressure depending on values of these parameters. When the vehicle runs at a normal cruising speed, control is carried out such that hydraulic pressure in the lock-up clutch assumes a value peripheral to output torque from the engine. This enables a running region of the lock-up clutch held in an operatively engaged state to be enlarged substantially.
