Abstract: The automatic tire inflation status measurement system comprises a scale and a tire-deformation apparatus for automatically determining whether a pneumatic tire installed on a vehicle is underinflated. The scale plate is flush mounted with the road surface and measures the weight on the tire as the tire rolls across the plate. A second weight measurement is made by using a deformation bar which projects slightly above the road surface and causes the tire to deform as it rolls over the bar. Both the scale and deformation bar are connected to load cells, preferably the same load cells. The tire deforms as it rolls across the bar and weight on the bar vs time is measured by the load cells. Data from the load cells is collected by, for example, using a summing amplifier and a computer-operated data acquisition board. The peak reading on the scale and the peak value of the bar reading are used to calculate a ratio. This ratio is then compared to a threshold value to determine whether the tire is underinflated. The result of this analysis is communicated to the vehicle driver, for example, by an electronically controlled display, such as a visual message display, computer speech generator or printer output, connected to the computer.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for wireless transmission of data through a communications channel between at least two local data sensors (for example automotive diagnostic data sensors or NVH sensors), which may include a primary data-processing function, and data-processing function (for example a PC) to receive data therefrom. The system provides for asymmetrical division of the communications channel on a frequency or time-division or packet-switching basis so that the corresponding asymmetrical data transmission requirement of the local data sensors are matched to the capacity of their respective sub-channels whereby a single channel is capable of transmitting all the required data. A particularly practical application is to noise vibration harshness analysis of wireless-transmitted data from three-dimensionally spaced NVH sensors enabling spacial pinpointing of vibration sources in automotive warranty analysis studies.

Abstract: A personal sampling method and apparatus for real time respirable dust dosimetry for dust exposure assessment is provided to aid in assuring the respiratory health of workers. An embodiment uses a low flow-rate gas sampling pump for differential pressure measurements across a glass fiber collection filter in a disposable detector tube (12) or dust detecting device coupled to the pump inlet. The dust detecting device includes an elongated tubular element (12) having the filter (30) positioned between proximal and distal ends of the tube (12) for trapping dust mass. A pressure transducer (16) at the proximal end (36) measures the pressure from the flow of gas. The pump draws the flow of gas through the dust detecting device from the distal end (38) towards the proximal end (36) trapping the dust mass at the filter (30). A differential pressure across the filter (30) determined using the pressure from the flow of the gas in the proximal end (36) of the tubular element measured by the pressure transducer (16) is indicative of cumulative dust mass trapped at the filter (30).

Abstract: An adaptive handset interface method and apparatus for interfacing a two-wire analog telephone instrument, such as a modem, fax modem, facsimile machine or teleconferencing device, to a digital, analog or hybrid telephone system, such as a private branch exchange (PBX). The interface device is suitable for use with a variety of PBXs produced by different manufacturers, despite differences in signalling characteristics between the PBX and an associated PBX-compatible telephone. In a preferred embodiment, the invention does not require access to a handset port of the PBX-compatible telephone. The interface device is connected to the extension line along with a PBX-compatible telephone. An analog telephone instrument is then connected to the interface device. In order to communicate with the PBX using a communication protocol appropriate to the PBX, the interface device "learns" the characteristics of the PBX. This is accomplished by: determining whether the telephone system is an analog or digital telephone system; and, if the telephone system is a digital telephone system, monitoring communications between the PBX and the PBX-compatible telephone. Then, the interface device is configured according to the appropriate protocol by retrieving a set of operational parameters from a plurality of such sets pre-stored in a memory device within the interface device. The learning technique allows the interface device to automatically adapt itself to variations in signalling characteristics between the PBX and PBX-compatible telephone sets among the different PBX manufacturers.

Abstract: Novel methods are described to synthesize chromatography media. The methods describe a crosslinking procedure utilizing the catalytic effect of MnO(OH)2 in obtaining a very rigid matrix. The mechanism of crosslinking is likely of free-radical type. This is also suggested by the concurrent functionalization steps which are known to be of free-mechanism and are greatly enhanced by MnO(OH)2. The methods are simple and efficient as crosslinking and functionalization of the matrix takes place in the same step. High protein binding capacities are obtained along with an increased efficiency of the matrix. One particularly preferred process according to the present invention comprises: (1) reacting a polymeric carbohydrate matrix with an activating reagent which contains a halogen atom or epoxide and a double bond under alkaline conditions to generate an activated matrix; (2) reacting the activated matrix having double bonds inserted with a reagent or reagents producing MnO(OH)2; and (3) activating the double bond in the presence of MnO(OH)2 to crosslink the matrix and simultaneously derivatize the matrix with a halohydrin, carboxyl or sulfonate group.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for desulfurising an NOx accumulator or an NOx accumulating catalyst mounted downstream from an internal combustion engine operated with a lean mixture. According to said method, after adjustment of a predetermined relatively low desulfurization temperature reaching approximately 600  DEG C, the lambda value is lowered to a constant value of approximately 0.98 for a predetermined period. Then, said lambda value is let to oscillate around an average lambda value which is lowered to about 0.93-0.95, as a function of time, from a pre-set initial value. The oscillation amplitude is preferably risen to a maximum value +/- 0.1, while the oscillation frequency is simultaneously reduced by about 0.2 Hz to about 0.1 Hz. In order to increase the desulfurization speed, the average catalyst temperature is also risen, as a function of time, to reach approximately 700-720  DEG C. The indicated process parameters are always selected on the basis of the catalyst system which is used, so that deposited sulphur is released during removal of undesirable hydrogen sulphide emissions, essentially in the form of sulphur dioxide, and so that desulfurization times are minimised. The parameters can be modified in a time dependent or independent manner from each other.
