Patent EP-2181812-A3 (EP)
Inventor: NORONA JOAO
IPC: B25F5/00
Filed: 2009-10-30
Abstract: A compliant shifting mechanism can change the operation of a power tool between first and second operating conditions. The shifting mechanism can provide two distinct forces on a gear set during movement of the gear set between the two operating conditions. The shifting mechanism can provide a user with a tactile sensation of the completion of the transition between the two operating conditions without the gear set completing the full transition. A shifting mechanism can automatically complete the change between operating conditions, regardless of an alignment between the gear set and another component. The two distinct forces can be a torsional resistance force and a bending resistance force.

Abstract: The present invention provides a precision press device and a press load control method thereof for downsizing a vacuum chamber in press work in the vacuum chamber, shortening a time required to reach a vacuum and further performing high accuracy pressure control. To downsize a chamber 16, a pressure sensor is set up outside the chamber 16 and a cylinder chamber 17 is formed to allow a tubular plunger 7 to slide up and down using the tubular shape of the chamber 16. A negative pressure 22 in the chamber 16 attracts the pressurized section 2 and the pressurizing section 1 to each other, but by injecting an equivalent pressure 19 of a fluid into the cylinder chamber 17, pushing out the tubular plunger 7, the attractive forces are canceled out. It is possible to control the load on the substrate or the like transferred by the press stage with high accuracy.

Abstract: Diese Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur kapazitiven Abtastung von Kreisteilungen, vielfach als kapazitiver Drehwinkelsensor, aber auch als Drehwinkelcodierer oder -geber bezeichnet. Viele Anwendungen erfordern solche Drehwinkelsensoren mit aussergewöhnlich hoher Messgenauigkeit und Auflösung des angezeigten bzw. ausgegebenen Winkelwertes, oft auf wenige Winkelminuten. Eine verbreitete Bauart solcher Drehwinkelsensoren besteht aus ein oder zwei stationären Kondensatorelektroden oder - belägen, wovon mindestens eine über den Umfang segmentiert ist, und einem drehbaren Rotor, der mit dem Objekt mechanisch verbunden ist, dessen Drehwinkel gemessen werden soll. Zwischen den beiden stationären Kondensatorelektroden wird ein elektrisches Feld erzeugt. Dieses Feld und dadurch die Kapazität zwischen den Elektroden wird bei Drehung des Rotors, der eine variable, elektrisch wirksame Struktur aufweist, so verändert, dass eine Bestimmung der Winkellage des Objekts mit grosser Genauigkeit möglich ist. Die erfindungsgemässe Lösung vermindert oder vermeidet grossen Schaltungsaufwand und nachträgliche elektrische Kompensation und Korrektur der ermittelten Werte in der Weise, dass die elektrisch wirksame Struktur des Rotors der erfindungsgemässen, genau definierten mathematischen Funktion entspricht. Der Rotor kann ein Leiter oder ein Nichtleiter sein, seine elektrisch wirksame, d.h. das elektrische Feld beeinflussende Struktur ist in beiden Fällen durch die Formgebung bedingt.

Abstract: In a multilayer optical disc having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, because the type of each information layer is not recorded in the other information layers, in read and write operations by a compatible optical disc device conforming to a plurality of optical disc standards, every time the information layer being accessed changes, it has been necessary to read the type of the information layer and select a method of generating a tracking error signal adapted to the type of information layer, so access has taken time. 
     In order to solve the above problem, in the optical multilayer disc according to the present invention, having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, in an area in one of the information layers, information about the other information layers is recorded. The time required to access the other information layers can be reduced by using this information to select a tracking error signal generating method.
