Patent EP-1074342-A1 (EP)
Inventor: VERONESI WILLIAM A
IPC: B24B49/00
Filed: 2000-07-19
Abstract: The rate of impact between the peening elements (14) and
an internal surface (28) of a hollow part (12) is a function of the
vibration frequency, and there is a cut-off frequency at
which a hollow part (12) can vibrate and induce repeated
impact between its internal surface (28) and the peening
elements (14) because the rate of impact becomes erratic and
loses its cyclical nature as the vibration frequency
deviates from the cut-off frequency. The present
invention provides a method for determining the cut-off
frequency at which a hollow part (12) can vibrate and maintain
the repetitive nature of the impact between its internal
surface (28) and the peening elements (14). Such a method requires
a peening element speed limit ratio, which is the ratio
of the velocity of the hollow part (12) compared to the
velocity of the peening element above which the rate of
impact begins to become erratic and lose its cyclical
nature. The present invention, therefore, teaches a
method of determining the peening element speed limit
ratio.

Abstract: An axial flow adsorber apparatus includes a bed of adsorbent material, a barrier
in the form of an open-cell material combined with a distribution screen, graded
balls, and an inflatable bladder. The open-cell material provides uniform retention of
all adsorbent material. The distribution screen provides uniform flow and pressure
distribution across the bed. The barrier substantially covers a top surface of the bed
to prevent bed fluidization. Graded balls on the barrier uniformly distribute a
downward pressure supplied by the bladder above the balls. The uniform pressure is
transmitted through the balls to the barrier to further suppress fluidization. The balls
also serve to direct gas flow in the upper end of the vessel and reduce void volume
that would trap product gas. The bladder maintains a uniform pressure on the bed
while eliminating a major portion of the void volume in the heads of the adsorber
apparatus.

Abstract: Synchronization involves an input analogue signal (r(t)) being applied to an adaptive filter (52,53) of samples (r(mTe). The adaptive filters provide correlation samples (y(m),z(m)). The elementary power of each sample is calculated, and a sliding window defined a set size larger than the sample period. The window is swept across a field at an instant of time. For each window the elementary power of the correlation sample are calculated, and the maximum power window determined. This maximum determines the synchronization window position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for reading coded
information, comprising illumination means, means for
picking-up a luminous signal diffused by an illuminated
support containing coded information, means for detecting
the luminous signal intended to generate an electrical
signal that is proportional to said luminous signal (for
example, an electrical signal with an amplitude variable,
along at least one reading direction, between at least one
maximum value Vmax and at least one minimum value Vmin),
and means for processing said electrical signal, intended
to extract the information content from it. The device
further comprises means for varying, preferably point by
point, the amplitude pattern of said electrical signal
along said at least one reading direction so as to generate
an electrical signal having a predetermined amplitude
pattern, for example, substantially constant. Preferably,
said means for varying the amplitude pattern of said first
electrical signal comprises amplifying means with a gain
variable according to a variation law substantially inverse
with respect to the variation law of said first electrical
signal. At each scan, such device compensates the typical
amplitude variations of the detected electrical signal,
caused by the intrinsic operation characteristic of the
illumination and detection means, thus increasing the
reliability of the performed reading.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and a process to extract heat and to solidify molten material particles. A flow of molten material is traversed by a high pressure dispersing/cooling flow to form particles of molten or semi-molten material. The particles impinge against a transporting device, which transport them to a collecting place. The transporting device is provided with a vibrator, which provides a vibrating movement to the transporting device to prevent the particles which are still cooling-off from being agglomerated again. A flow of a low pressure dispersing/cooling could be provided, which substantially transversely traverses said flow of particles of molten or semi-molten material which fall towards the transporting device, in order to enhance the dispersion and cooling-off effects of the particles. A hopper could be provided to collect the particles and to carry them to the transporting device. Cooling water pipes could be provided to eject a flow of cooling water onto the internal walls of the hopper and also onto the transporting device, which assist cooling of the dispersed particles.

Abstract: A connector which provides an interconnect between a pin and a flat conductor. The connector employs two bundles fabricated of densely packed gold plated wire for the electrical connection to the devices. The bundles are both housed in a dielectric sleeve structure and are themselves connected by a solid conductor. A portion of one wire bundle protrudes from one end of the sleeve structure to make electrical contact with a flat conductor in a mating assembly. The second wire bundle is recessed within the sleeve structure adjacent a second end of the sleeve structure. The pin is inserted into the second end in an installation, making electrical contact with the second wire bundle. The connector provides a robust electrical connection, and also provides for misalignment of the flat connector in addition to variations in the exact location of the pin. The length of the pin in the mating part can vary considerably, and the connector device still provides a controlled impedance interconnect over microwave frequencies. The connector can be installed in a larger assembly thus providing a large number of interconnections to be mating simultaneously. This is accomplished by providing clearances and tapers in the mating housing.

Pour résoudre le problème de l'espace insuffisant entre la lunette d'encadrement du tube cathodique et la région frontale (16) afin de recevoir les transducteurs (20) de l'écran tactile, les transducteurs (20) sont éloignés de la région frontale (16), vers la région d'épaulement (17) fortement incurvée du CRT (15).

Une tolérance est également obtenue pour l'effet de lentille et de prisme acoustique des régions de coin (26) du CRT (15) où l'on peut également placer le transducteur (20).

Abstract: The invention relates to a semiconductor device comprising a bipolar transistor having a collector (1), a base (2) and an emitter (3) at its active area (A). The semiconductor body (10) of the device is covered with an insulating layer (20). At least a part of a base connection conductor (5) and an emitter connection conductor (6) extend over the insulating layer (20) and lead to a base connection area (8) and an emitter connection area (9), respectively. The known transistor is characterized by poor gain, particularly at high frequencies and at high power. A device according to the invention is characterized in that the emitter connection area (9) and the base connection area (8), viewed in projection, are present on the same side of the active area (A), the emitter connection conductor (6) is divided into two or more sub-conductors (6A, 6B) and the base connection conductor (5) is divided into one or more further sub-conductors (5) which are present between the sub-conductors (6A, 6B) and form a co-planar transmission line (T) therewith. In this way, the inductance of the emitter connection conductor (6) is reduced considerably, resulting in a much higher gain, particularly at high frequencies and high power. Preferably, the semiconductor body (10) is interrupted at the area of the transmission line (T) and is glued to an insulating substrate (40).
