Title: Vehicle indicator lamp reflector
Inventor: SATSUKAWA HIDEAKI
IPC: F21Y101/00
Filed: 2000-01-13
Abstract: A vehicle indicator lamp includes a reflector having a diffusing and reflecting function that increases the lamp fixture efficiency by eliminating the loss of reflected light. The structure includes a reflector (14) having a reflective surface (14a) which diffuses and reflects light forward from a light-source bulb (12) arranged in a lamp fixture reference axis Ax, and a transparent lens (16) in front of the reflector (14). The reflective surface (14a) is formed such that the inner peripheral edge region (14a1) thereof indicated reflected light in a direction substantially parallel to the lamp fixture reference axis (Ax), while the outer peripheral edge region (14a2) thereof radiates reflected light in a direction towards the light fixture reference axis (Ax). Consequently, the diffused and reflected light from the reflected surface (14a) is not blocked by either the light-source bulb (12) or the standing wall (14c) of the reflective surface outer peripheral edge, thereby substantially eliminating the loss of reflected light. The lens (16) may include a condenser lens portion (16a).

Filed: 2000-03-20
Abstract: A storage domain management system and method of use for a Storage Area Network (SAN) comprises a processing unit, a plurality of communication interfaces, a management interface and a series of logic routines. The processing unit is coupled by the communication interfaces to one or more client systems and one or more storage devices. The storage devices maybe an array of hard disks or consist of non volatile memory. The management interface is a set of logic routines on the processing unit which create a virtual storage domain from the physically attached storage devices and provide access to one or more clients. The management interface may be a GUI and accessible by a touch screen. Further logic routines on the processor, translate storage requests from the clients into a common format and route them within the storage domain and allow migration of data between locations in the SAN. In one embodiment a storage server uses a virtual circuit to handle communication with the data storage areas (Fig 15) wherein routing uses mapping tables.

Abstract: The valve body 2 has two groups 12, 13 of injection ducts at different levels which are controlled separately by a hollow needle 11 and an inner needle 10, respectively. At partial load, only the first group 12 of injection ducts is opened. The injection pressure at partial load is controlled by mechanically adjusting the pre-stress force of a compression spring 7 which acts on the hollow needle 11 by means of an adjustment screw 4 acting on a pressure piece 5. The mechanical adjustment is reliable, inexpensive and uncomplicated. The opening pressure of the inner needle 10 may be adjustable hydraulically, by adjusting the pressure in a chamber above an adjustment piston 6, or mechanically.

Title: Determining the skew angle of a two-dimensional barcode
Inventor: MA YUE
IPC: G06K7/14
Filed: 2000-08-10
Abstract: In calculating a skew angle for a two-dimensional barcode, the horizontal or vertical edges within the barcode Fig 3A, are located, preferably using a finite state recognizer, and an edge array identifying the horizontal or vertical edges is generated Fig 3B. The edge lines within the edge array are identified and traced, and any segments of edge lines within the edge array which are perpendicularly connected are separated. The slope for each edge line within the edge array is calculated, preferably using linear regression techniques. In the preferred embodiment, a discrete histogram of the slopes is generated and the skew angle is then set as the highest value within the discrete histogram. In a preferred embodiment, edge lines within the edge array which are located within a first predetermined threshold of each other are merged with each other and edge lines within the edge array having a length less than a second predetermined threshold are eliminated from the edge array to speed processing.

Title: Measurement of pupil response
Inventor: GUNARATHNE THARAKA
IPC: A61B3/11
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: A system for measuring the autonomous response of pupil comprises a light source 1 with associated means 2, 3 for controlling the intensity and duration of its output 6, means 5 for forming an area of uniform illumination on the eye and for directing the beam, e.g. a partial reflector 7, and means for recording or measuring the pupil response, such as a CCD or a video camera 8.

Title: Pre-registration of intended participants in a teleconference
Inventor: BALAZ JOSEPH V
IPC: H04M3/38
Filed: 2001-05-24
Abstract: A teleconference system and method permitting teleconference pre-registration is disclosed. The system includes a configuration tool, a pre-registration system, and, preferably, an audio bridge. The configuration tool is initially used by a conference organizer to configure the pre-registration system to pre-register intended teleconference participants in accordance with a conference-specific scheme. Pre-registration may be configured to be operative during a selected time period. The pre-registration system receives calls from intended conference participants during the selected time period and pre-registers callers for the scheduled conference. During pre-registration, information is gathered from the participant in accordance with the organizer's instructions. A unique personal identifier may also be assigned to each caller by the pre-registration system. At the conclusion of pre-registration, intended participation in the scheduled conference can be ascertained by noting which intended participants have pre-registered for the scheduled conference. At the time of the scheduled conference, pre-registered parties call the audio bridge to be connected to the scheduled conference. Entry of assigned personal identifiers (if any) may serve to identify the conference to which the caller should be connected, or to provide an indication of conference attendance.

Title: Eddy-current sensor arrays
Inventor: GOLDFINE NEIL
IPC: G01B7/34
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: Inductive sensors measure the near surface properties of conducting and magnetic material. A sensor may have primary windings with parallel extended winding segments to impose a spatially periodic magnetic field in a test material. Those extended portions may be formed by adjacent portions of individual drive coils. Sensing elements provided every other half wavelength may be connected together in series while the sensing elements in adjacent half wavelengths are spatially offset. Certain sensors include circular segments which create a circularly symmetric magnetic field that is periodic in the radial direction. Such sensors are particularly adapted to surround fasteners to detect cracks and can be mounted beneath a fastener head. In another sensor, sensing windings are offset along the length of parallel winding segments to provide material measurements over different locations when the circuit is scanned over the test material. The distance from the sensing elements to the ends of the primary winding may be kept constant as the offset space in between sensing elements is varied. An image of the material properties can be provided as the sensor is scanned across the material.
