Abstract: A computer system having an ISA bus and a PCI bus is provided with a PCI to ISA bridge having certain imbedded functions performed by PCI slaves on the bridge. In order to implement the bridge in slow CMOS technology, the PCI control signals are latched on the bridge. Since the PCI slaves on the bridge cannot respond with control signals on the PCI bus fast enough to satisfy the PCI bus protocol due to this latching, a logic device is provided on the bridge. The logic device monitors the unlatched master-slave control signals carried on the PCI bus, and in appropriate situations, drives the control signals on the PCI bus (within the time specified by the PCI bus protocol) that the PCI slaves would normally drive but are unable to within the time necessary to meet the PCI bus protocol.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for efficient encoding of symbols with multilevel encoding, where components of the symbols that are more susceptible to errors are encoded more robustly than components that are less susceptible to error. A non-binary constellation of symbols is handled with a fractional bit rate converter that combines with the multilevel encoder to create an effective and efficient constellation of symbols. Illustratively, digital data is encoded and mapped onto a set of symbols, with the two least significant bits of the symbols being encoded with a multi-level code. The least significant bit is encoded with a code that is more robust than the code of the next-to-least significant bit, in recognition of the fact that errors in the least significant bit are much more likely. The most significant bits are mapped with the aid of a fractional bit rate mapper that optimizes a selected aspect of the symbol constellation, such as average power.

Granted: 1999-05-25
Abstract: A paperboard container composed of a unitary, continuous blank, comprises opposing top and bottom walls, a plurality of side walls bridging the top and bottom walls, an upper minor flap, and a paperboard pour spout. The plurality of side walls includes a first side wall having upper and lower ends.  The upper minor flap extends from the upper end of the first side wall, and the upper minor flap forms a portion of the top wall. The pour spout includes a spout body and a pair of spout wings hingedly connected to opposing edges of the spout body. The pour spout is pivotally coupled to the first side wall for movement between closed and open positions. The spout wings extend into the container via an opening in the first side wall. The pour spout further includes a backboard hingedly connected to the upper minor flap and adhered to an inner surface of the first side wall. The backboard partially overlaps the spout body. The spout wings form respective bumps at locations immediately adjacent to an upper edge and respective ones of the opposing edges of the spout body. The backboard forms a pair of shoulders which releasably engage the respective bumps. The spout wings form a pair of die-cut stops which project in generally opposite directions from respective ones of the opposing edges of the spout body. The stops are generally coplanar with the spout body.

Abstract: Ideal function curves are generated for a combine in various operating conditions having acceptable loss rates. These ideal function curves are stored in an onboard computer and compared with actual measured function curves. The actual function curves are derived from sensors measuring grain distribution perlinear length of grain falling through the sieve. The computer compares the actual function curve with the ideal function curve for transmitting an adjustment signal to the appropriate controller to drive the actual function curve towards the ideal function curve. Loss sensors are not required because acceptable losses for various conditions are built into the ideal function curves.

Title: Transfer method for plastics conveyor belts
Inventor: PALMAER KARL V
IPC: B65G17/08
Filed: 1994-08-26
Granted: 2005-07-05
Abstract: A method for transferring conveyed articles to and from a plastic conveyor belt (10) involves a flat transfer plate (42) positioned directly adjacent to the end run of a plastic open-link modular conveyor belt. The belt is of the type with interdigited projections of modules connected by transverse rods (20), and driven by sprocket wheels (32). Either a straight belt or a belt capable of travel around lateral curves can be used. For the smooth transfer of conveyed articles onto and off the belt, the plastic belt nodules have arched upper surfaces (22), each defining a short segment of a cylinder, so that when the belt passes over a sprocket wheel or roller at the end run, the upper surfaces of adjacent modules define a smooth half cylinder. A preferably fixed transfer plate (42) is positioned against the defined cylindrical surface, at or slightly below the level of the belt's upper surface. The open link or foraminous belt allows free passa ge and circulation of liquids and gases through the belt for processing of products conveyed and to facilitate cleaning and sterilization of the belt.

Title: Electronic devices having reduced destruction of internal elements upon malfunction
Inventor: MOCHIDA NORIHIRO
IPC: H01C1/14
Filed: 1996-10-02
Granted: 2000-03-21
Abstract: A positive thermistor device includes a positive thermistor element having a pair of opposed electrodes, each of which receives compressive force elasticallyapplied from a corresponding one of spring contact members to hold the thermistor element at a predefined position in the device.  When the thermistor device is destroyed, the element breaks into fragments, some of which remain in contact with the spring contact members.  The remaining fragments deviate in position to ensure that they do not conduct electricity, resulting in an open state, wherein any current flow is inhibited through such fragments.  More specifically, a positive thermistor disk is held within the device so that it is interposed between conductive spring contact pieces and insulative position-alignment projections, which are cross-diagonally situated with respect to each other.  The spring contact pieces are located further toward the periphery of the disk than the position-alignment projections, causing a spring force to extend in a direction generally outward relative to a direction perpendicular to the planes of the electrodes.  In one embodiment, theposition-alignment projections have cut-away portions at outer tip ends thereof respectively to further promote the formation of an open circuit state upon the occurrence of malfunction.

Abstract: A method of lubricating a lubricant requiring portion of a die casting machine includes inserting a unitized lubricant element of flowable material into a cylinder  when  an  associated  ram  is  retracted  and advancing the ram against the lubricant element  to squeeze the element against a partially closed end of the cylinder and force the lubricant to flow through a restricted passage to the portion to be lubricated.  A metal injecting shot sleeve and plunger may act as the cylinder and ram for lubricant delivery prior to the introduction of molten casting metal where  the die cavity is to be lubricated but provision of a separate cylinder and ram apparatus is preferred.  Various forms of  unitized  lubricant  elements  with  and  without containers and examples of lubricant delivery apparatus are disclosed.

Abstract: A support structure adapted to support vehicle-mounted equipment in an elevated stored state above ground is further adapted to mount onto a bed of the vehicle thereby to assist in loading and off-loading equipment relative to the bed.  A support frame is adapted to receive and support the equipment in the stored state.  A first rigid leg structure includes a first pair of legs each pivotally mounted to the support frame on a respective pivot axis such that each of the legs includes a first portion located on one side of the axis, the first portion adapted to engage the ground, and a second portion located on another side of the axis.          Each of the legs is pivotable between a support position wherein the first portion engages the ground and a stowed position wherein the leg is oriented proximate to the support frame with the second portion extending into a region between the support frame and a respective axis.  A second rigid leg structure is mounted to the support frame; and a pair of stop elements are each selectively movable into the region between the support frame and the respective axis of a respective one of the legs to define a stop position wherein the stop element obstructs the region thereby to prevent pivoting of the respective leg into the stowed position, and movable out of the region to permit pivoting of the respective leg into the stowed position.
