Abstract: A power circuit is provided which is capable of lengthening use time of a battery in a portable communication terminal of a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) or TDD (Time Division Duplex) type portable communication devices, and of making them compact and lightweight. Since, by using a control circuit, an output current having been limited to become a pre-set current value is supplied from the battery to a transmission power amplifier and an electrical double layer capacitor is charged so that power is accumulated therein and since power is applied from the electrical double layer capacitor to both the control circuit and the transmission power amplifier, even if power consumption of the transmission power amplifier increases during a burst period, a drop of the output voltage from the battery is small. Therefore, time required for the output voltage to reach a terminating voltage in the battery is made longer and a life of the battery can be lengthened. Also, even if the battery is put under a low-temperature circumstance and its internal resistance increases, shortening of the life of the battery can be avoided.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de réglage du temps de remplissage pour un spectromètre de masse comprenant un ion linéaire. On fait d'abord fonctionner le spectromètre de masse en mode d'émission et on fournit des ions au spectromètre de masse. On effectue la détection des ions lors de leur passage à travers au moins une partie du spectromètre de masse pour une durée prédéterminée, en vue de déterminer le courant ionique. On détermine un temps de remplissage de piégeage d'ions à partir d'une densité de charge maximale pour le piège à ions et le courant ionique. On fait fonctionner le spectromètre de masse en mode piégeage pour piéger les ions dans le piège à ions, et on effectue le remplissage du piège à ions pour le temps de remplissage préalablement déterminé. Cela permet une utilisation maximale du piège à ions, tout en évitant des problèmes dus au remplissage excessif, provoquant des effets de charge d'espace.

Title: Hazardous waste treatment method and apparatus
Inventor: CHAN BENJAMIN CHUN PONG
IPC: F23G5/08
Filed: 2003-05-06
Granted: 2009-01-20
Abstract: An apparatus and method for treating the off-gas byproduct of a waste treatment system using a plasma torch. The off-gas of a graphite electrode plasma arc furnace includes carbon black or soot which must be removed. The plasma torch employs a carbon dioxide and oxygen mixture as a working gas to avoid the creation of nitrogen oxides and other toxic by-products. The plasma torch ionizes the working gas, resulting in the creation of carbon monoxide and reactive oxygen, which assists in eliminating carbon black/soot from the off-gas. Oxygen and steam are atomized and injected into the chamber housing the plasma torch system. A process control feedback system monitors the content of the output gas and controls the operation of the injectors and the plasma torch.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un interrupteur coupe-charge haute tension fonctionnant en mode immergé dans un fluide diélectrique et pouvant être conçu pour inverser une ou plusieurs phases d'alimentation au moyen d'un ou de plusieurs inverseurs de phase. Chaque inverseur de phase peut comprendre des premier et second contacts fixes. Le premier contact fixe peut être connecté à une phase d'une source d'alimentation haute tension. Chaque inverseur de phase peut également comprendre un contact non fixe. Ce contact non fixe peut être placé dans une première position permettant de coupler électriquement le premier contact fixe au second contact fixe, et dans une seconde position permettant de découpler le premier contact fixe du second contact fixe. La zone de mouvement du premier contact non fixe entre la première position et la seconde position comprend une zone de production d'arc. Cet interrupteur coupe-charge haute tension utilise un mécanisme de circulation de fluide pour améliorer la circulation du fluide diélectrique à travers la zone de production d'arc. Pour supprimer la production d'arc entre des phases différentes, une chicane non conductrice peut séparer des interrupteurs coupe-phase différents lorsque plus d'un interrupteur coupe-charge est utilisé. Une chicane non conductrice peut également séparer une phase de la masse de sorte à empêcher une production d'arc phase-masse.

Title: Method and apparatus for unique address assignment, node self-identification and topology mapping for a directed acyclic graph
Inventor: OPRESCU FLORIN
IPC: G06F13/40
Filed: 1993-12-16
Granted: 2010-06-29
Abstract: A node identification system is described for use in a computer system in which the various components of the system are interconnected via nodes on a communications bus. Once the topology of the nodes has been resolved into an acyclic directed graph, each node may be assigned a non-predetermined unique address. Each node having a plurality of ports has an a priori assigned priority for port selection. Each child node connected to a parent is allowed to respond in the predetermined sequence depending upon the port through which it is connected to its parent. Each node in the graph will announce its presence according to its location in the graph. Each receives an address incremented from the previous addresses assigned, thereby insuring uniqueness. The same mechanism may be implemented to allow each node in turn to broadcast information on the bus concerning the parameters of its local host. Likewise, additional information may be conveyed from each node concerning connections to other nodes thereby allowing a host system to generate a map of the resolved topology including any information about disabled links which may be used for redundancy purposes.
