Abstract: The invention relates to a rear suspension of a vehicle, such as a bicycle, a motorcycle or similar. The invention is of the type that comprises: a chassis (1); a swing arm (7) which is solidly connected to the chassis (1) and which bears the axle (11) of the hub of a drive wheel; and a shock absorber (15), the ends of which are solidly connected to the chassis (1) and the swing arm (7) respectively, the motor torque being transmitted to the drive wheel by means of a chain (Z). The aforementioned swing arm (7) is solidly connected to the chassis (1) by at least two articulation means (12, 13), such that the arm (7) pivots around a point, known as the instantaneous centre of rotation (C), which can move when the hub of the drive wheel moves to either side of the reference position thereof (P<SUB>r</SUB>)<SUB>, </SUB>said reference position corresponding to the position of the axle (11) of the hub of the drive wheel when the vehicle is in static equilibrium. The inventive suspension is characterised in that the instantaneous centre of rotation (C) moves upwards along a parabolic trajectory (T) having an asymptote (A) which is oriented towards the rear free end of the swing arm (7) bearing the axle (11) of the hub of the drive wheel when said hub moves above the reference position P<SUB>r </SUB>thereof.

Abstract: In order to locate malfunction in a communication network, the elements therein are configured for generating alarm and to propagate a malfunction signalling to at least one other element in said set. Those elements in the network to which the malfunction signalling was propagated, are excluded, preferably by way of self-exclusion, from the action of locating malfunction. Preferably the arrangement is implemented in the form of a distributed agent-based architecture, wherein each element has an associated agent for categorizing the alarm information in its possession, e.g., as related to internal malfunction, contiguous malfunction, and external malfunction. The categorized alarm information is collected, preferably via direct exchange between the associated agents, for all the elements having alarmed resources physically or logically connected with each other. On the basis of the categorized alarm information collected, at least one element responsible for malfunction is elected out of those elements in possession of alarm information categorized as related to internal malfunction or contiguous malfunction, while discarding those elements in possession only of alarm information categorized as related to external malfunction.

Abstract: A high frequency switch (11) includes electrically connected switching elements, such as a first diode (D1), a second diode (D2), inductors (SL1), (SL2), capacitors (C5), (C6), and a resistor (R). A diode having a smaller charge capacity in the ON state is used as the first diode, while a diode having a larger charge capacity in the ON state is used as the second diode. That is, the first and second diodes employ different part number diodes. A diode part number having a smaller charge capacity is used as the first diode, while a diode part number having a larger charge capacity is used as the second diode. Alternatively, the charge capacity of diodes that belong to the same lot may be measured and classified, so that a smaller charge capacity diode is used as the first diode, while a larger charge capacity diode is used as the second diode.

Abstract: A steering lock for locking the steering spindle of a motor vehicle steering system including a blocking element that pivots along a longitudinal axis from a locking to an unlocking position using an electromechanical drive and is maintained in the unlocking position by a spring-loaded lever. In order to enable the lever to maintain the blocking element in the unlocking position when a worm drive generates the displacement of the blocking element, a worm gear representing a first control contour is used. A first cam for pivoting the blocking element to the unlocking position and a second cam for actuating the lever are mounted on the worm gear. Prior to the pivoting of the blocking element from the unlocking to the locking position, the lever is pivoted from a rest into a release position and, only afterwards, the worm gear enables the blocking element to pivot to the locking position.

Abstract: A method for predicting the rate of penetration (ROP) of a drill bit drilling a well bore through intervals of rock of a subterranean formation is provided. The method uses an equation based upon specific energy principles. A relationship is determined between a bit-specific coefficient of sliding friction µ and confined compressive strength CCS over a range of confined compressive strengths CCS. Similarly, another relationship for the drill bit is determined between mechanical efficiency EFFM and confined compressive strength CCS over a range of confined compressive strengths CCS. Confined compressive strength CCS is estimated for intervals of rock through which the drill bit is to be used to drill a well bore. The rate of penetration ROP is then calculated utilizing the estimates of confined compressive strength CCS of the intervals of rock to be drilled and those determined relationships between the bit-specific coefficient of sliding friction µ and the mechanical efficiency EFFM and the confined compressive strengths CCS, as well as using estimated drill bit speeds N (RPM) and weights on bit (WOB).
