IPC: H03B5/12
Filed: 2002-06-19
Abstract: The circuit is designed to generate a negative conductance (NG) between two connection terminals (A,B), and comprises two transistors (T1,T2) connected as a differential pair between the two terminals. Two further transistors (T3,T4) are connected between the bases and the collectors of the differential pair transistors, the additional devices implementing feedback which brings negative currents to the bases of the transistors of the differential pair, generating a negative conductance. The collectors of the differential pair transistors (T1,T2) are connected to a supply voltage terminal (VCC) via load resistors (RC), and their emitters are grounded via a current source (10). The additional transistors (T3,T4) are connected as followers, and the emitters are connected to the ground by the intermediary of respective current sources (I1,I2). In a second embodiment, the active-component transistors (T3,T4) are connected as diodes, and resistors are inserted between the emitters of the differential-pair transistors (T1,T2). An oscillator comprising an inductive element and a capacitive element connected to form a resonant circuit for generating a signal having frequency tuneable by the capacitive element, that is the oscillator such as a voltage-controlled oscillator, comprises the proposed circuit connected to the resonant circuit. A receiver for radio-signals comprises an input stage, a mixer, and the oscillator as a local oscillator.

Abstract: A supporting device 2 for audio-visual equipment
consists of three main parts, namely a normally vertical tube
4, a sleeve 6 and a collar 8. The tube 4 is the support upon
which the sleeve 6 and the collar are supported. It is
provided at its exterior with two diametrically opposite
longitudinal slots 10. The sleeve 6 is provided at its
interior with two diametrically opposite longitudinal ribs 12
which fit slidingly in the slots 10 but prevent rotation of
the sleeve 6 relative to the tube 4. Extending through the
wall of the sleeve 6 at at least one of the ribs 12 are two
set screws 14 in threaded bores 15 in the wall of the sleeve
6 and tightenable against the base of the relevant slot 10 to
fix the sleeve 6 releasably in the desired position along the
tube 4. A diametral pin 16 fixed in the bases of the slots
10 prevents the sleeve 6 from falling from the lower end of
the tube 4 when the set screws 14 are released. The collar
8 closely encircles the sleeve 6 co-axially and, at the level
of an annular groove 18 formed around the exterior of the
sleeve 6, is provided with a plurality of set screws 20 which
can slide in the groove 18 to permit rotation of the collar
8 round the sleeve 6 and are mounted in threaded bores 21
through the collar 8. The screws 20 can be tightened against
the base surface of the groove 18 to fix the collar 8
relative to the sleeve 6. To prevent the collar 8 from
falling from the lower end of the sleeve 6 if the screws 20
are fully withdrawn relative to the groove 18, the lower end
of the sleeve 6 is formed externally with an annular flange
22. The mating surfaces between the sleeve 6 and the collar
8, as well as the upper surface of the flange 22 and the
lower end surface of the collar 8, are precision-machined to
allow smooth rotation of the collar 8 relative to the sleeve
6.

Abstract: The present invention provides an active matrix type liquid crystal display
employing the line inversion driving. At the time of the wide mode display, in which
specific area (black frame area) of the pixel unit (11) consisting of such as upper two
rows and lower two rows are displayed in black, the liquid crystal display drives the
gate lines (24 -1 , 24 -y-1 ) of odd number rows and the gate lines (24 -2 , 24 -y ) of even
number rows of the black frame area using driving pulses (1) and (2) of different lines
which are generated by the driving pulse generating circuit (135), while sequentially
outputs image signals whose polarity is inverted every 1H period to the signal lines (25 - 
 1 ∼25 -x ) via the horizontal switches (122 -1 ∼122 -x ) to perform line inversion driving in
the black frame area.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une icône trois états (10) pour ordinateur. L'icône empêche le démarrage d'une opération, par inadvertance, sur un ordinateur. L'icône présente un premier état (11) qui dissimule un second état (14). En sélectionnant le premier état au moyen d'un dispositif de pointage (souris, par exemple) (116), l'icône passe au second état.  En sélectionnant l'icône au second état, on démarre l'opération sur l'ordinateur. En conséquence, ce n'est qu'en sélectionnant l'icône au premier état, puis au second état, que l'opération commence sur l'ordinateur, empêchant ainsi tout démarrage accidentel de l'opération. Une fois le second état sélectionné, l'icône passe à un troisième état (22a ou 22b) qui indique que l'opération est en cours sur l'ordinateur.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for the optical transmission of an MR signal from an MR receiving coil (6) to a detection unit (22). The light of a light source (21) is applied, by way of an optical fiber, to an electro-optical modulator which consists of an electro-optical material which is arranged between two crossed polarizers (3, 5). Thus, a light signal which is amplitude modulated around zero is generated, the intensity of said light signal being proportional to the voltage induced in the MR receiving coil (6). The modulated light signal is then conducted from the electro-optical modulator to the detection unit (22) by way of an optical fiber.

Abstract: A flash vaporizer ( 34 ) provides a constant flow of vaporized hydrogen peroxide or other antimicrobial compounds for rapidly sterilizing large enclosures ( 10 ), such as rooms or buildings. The vaporizer includes a heated block ( 50 ) which defines an interior bore or bores ( 70, 72, 74 ). The flowpath created by the bore or bores increases in cross sectional area as the hydrogen peroxide passes through the block to accommodate the increase in volume during the conversion from liquid to gas. The vapor is injected into dry air in a duct that circulates it to the large enclosure.

Abstract: A safety PLC 1 and at least a safety slave unit 2
are connected through a safety network 3. The safety
slave unit has the safety information transmission
function for transmitting the safety information for
determining whether a safe state prevails or not and
the unsafety information transmission function for
transmitting the unsafety information containing no
safety information. The unsafety information
transmission function transmits the unsafety
information on condition that the safety slave unit is
in a safe state. Specifically, in the case where it is
determined that no safe state prevails at the timing of
transmitting the unsafety information, the unsafety
information is not sent but the safety is transmitted.
A safety controller, upon receipt of the unsafety
information, estimates that the safety slave unit at
the transmitting end of the particular unsafety
information is in a safe state.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of synchronizing a mobile station with a base station in a wireless communications system, to a mobile station for a wireless communications system, as well as to a wireless communications system of this kind. In order to enable faster ultimate synchronization, it is proposed to compare components of the received data not only with a stored synchronization pattern, but also with a stored identification pattern prior to the adaptation of the timing of the mobile station to received data. Already before the synchronization it can thus be determined with a high degree of probability whether received data originates from a desired base station or not. The necessity of checking the contents of packets which are not associated with a desired base station can thus be avoided. Moreover, because of such preliminary checking, it is no longer necessary either to reset the timing of the mobile station after synchronization on the basis of data which later appear to originate from another base station.
