Patent EP-0681649-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MONONEN REIJO
IPC: F02D41/40
Filed: 1994-01-31
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling the injection of diesel fuel. The opening of a needle (2) included in an injection nozzle (1) is subjected to a mechanical action by a piezoelectric actuator (6). Thus, the timing and rate adjustment of injection can be controlled by means of electronics (7), which delivers electrical control pulses to the actuator (6). The invention can be applied in a free-piston engine whose operation is controlled by adjusting the timing and rate of fuel injection.

Title: Method of recovering zinc
Inventor: WARNER NOEL ALFRED
IPC: C22B5/02
Filed: 1994-03-15
Abstract: Zinc is recovered from zinc sulphide material by introducing such material at a feed station (42) into a molten copper sulphide matte which is circulated in a closed loop path through said feed station (42), a zinc recovery station (16) and an oxidising station (44). The matte is heated electrically directly by resistive heating using electrodes (20). Oxygen in the absence of other gases is introduced at the oxidising station (44). Sulphur dioxide is removed in a sulphuric acid plant. The method is operated to keep the activity of copper in the total matte at less than unit activity. Virtually zero gas emission is possible.

Date Dec. 8, 1994A method registers a vehicle in a road toll facility that is provided with radio transmitter and receiver units (7). The radio transmitter and receiver units are configured to communicate with at least one vehicle unit (12) arranged in the vehicle (4). The vehicle unit is configured with radio transmitter-receiver equipment so that on receipt of a command from the radio transmitter unit (7) of the road toll facility, the vehicle unit communicates adequate data for performance of a debiting operation regarding a toll. Upon the entry of the vehicle into the toll facility area, the transmitter and receiver units (7) of the toll facility determine whether the vehicle (4) is equipped with a vehicle unit capable of performing a correct debiting transaction. The method distinguishes between vehicles for which the correct debiting can be performed and vehicles for which no debiting can be performed, and establishes a position for the vehicle by subjecting the vehicle to successive position measurements, and tracks the vehicle to a predetermined position where the license plate or other identifying characteristics of the vehicle that did not properly carry out a debiting operation is recorded for postdebiting of the toll.

Abstract: A floating mass transducer for improving hearing in a hearing impaired person is provided. The floating mass transducer (100) may be implanted or mounted externally for producing vibrations in a vibratory structure of an ear. In an exemplary embodiment, the floating mass transducer comprises a magnet assembly (12) and a coil (14) secured inside a housing (10) which is fixed to an ossicle of a middle ear. The coil is more rigidly secured to the housing than the magnet. The magnet assembly and coil are configured such that conducting alternating electrical current through the coil results in vibration of the magnet assembly and coil relative to one another. The vibration is caused by the interaction of the magnetic fields of the magnet assembly and coil. Because the coil is more rigidly secured to the housing than the magnet assembly, the vibrations of the coil cause the housing to vibrate. The vibrations of the housing are conducted to the oval window of the ear via the ossicles. In alternate embodiments, the floating mass transducer produces vibrations using piezoelectric materials.

IPC: H04Q1/46
Filed: 1994-09-14
Abstract: Speech is distinguished from noise by a spectral comparison (114, 115) of an input signal with a stored noise estimate (113). Updating of the noise estimate (in a buffer (113)) is permitted during periods when speech is absent under control of an auxiliary detector (200). In order to improve operation in the presence of signals with strong harmonic components (e.g. signalling tones) an LPC prediction gain is computed from the input (x(i)) and a residual (y(i)) obtained from the input following filtering by a filter (105) having a response complementary to the frequency spectrum of the input, and if the gain exceeds a threshold, buffer updating is suppressed.

Abstract: A subtractor (106) forms a difference signal (D) from a video input signal (C) and a further signal (M) supplied thereto. The difference signal is limited (108) and attenuated (110) and the resultant signal (F) is combined (112) with the video input signal for providing a noise reduced video output signal (H). A delay circuit (202), responsive to the video output signal, provides field (A) and frame (B) delayed video signals. A selection circuit (220) selects a median value (M) of the field delayed video signal, the frame delayed video signal and the video input signal as the further signal for application to the subtractor. Advantageously, the further signal provides the dual functions of (1) facilitating the noise reduction of the output signal and (2) concurrently reducing the occurrence of potential motion artifacts to a very substantial degree.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for controlling a firing shrinkage of a ceramic green body. The method includes the steps of: subjecting a ceramic powder to a pretreatment by which a spherical diameter (Rs) of the ceramic powder is adjusted to be 1µm or less, wherein Rs is expressed by an equation of Rs(µm)=6/ρ S (ρ is a true density (g/cm³) of the ceramic powder, and S is a BET specific surface area (m/s) of the ceramic powder.); subjecting the ceramic powder to heat treatment at a specific temperature calculated in advance; molding the ceramic powder to obtain a ceramic green body; and firing the ceramic green body. A temperature for the heat-treatment is calculated of the basis of a correlation between calcurating rates for firing and arbitrary selected temperatures.
