Patent EP-1139580-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LEE XIAOYANG
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2000-11-21
Abstract: A base station controller and method for controlling a forward link power level in
a CDMA cellular system provides an adjustment threshold. The method includes the
steps of defining the adjustment threshold for the forward link power level, and receiving
an inner-loop power control command from a remote transmitter. The power control
command defines a request for an incremental adjustment in the forward link power
level. The method further provides for defining the forward link power level based on
the adjustment threshold and the request. Tracking a cumulative power adjustment of
the forward link power level allows the base station controller to avoid continuous
increases in transmitted power when the power commands are actually the result of
multipath effects. The result is an improvement in overall cell operation.

Abstract: A method for making shoes (1) comprises the stages
of moulding a base (2) of the shoe (1) according to
a preset curve, folding the edges (2a, 2b) of the
base (2) outwards, folding the flaps of an upper
(5) outwards and of joining the upper (5) to the
base (2) at the outer edge of the base. The method
may also comprise stages of applying a
thermoformable element (3) on a first surface of
the base (2), at least at the outer edge of the
base (2) and of applying a sole element (4), on at
least a portion of a second surface of the base
(2). A shoe obtained in this way, therefore,
comprises a base (2), moulded according to a preset
curve and an upper (5) attached to the base (2) at
the outer edge of the base (2) by joining the flaps
of the upper (5) and the edges (2a, 2b) of the base
(2) which are folded outwards.

Abstract: A robust, reliable and low-cost metal structure and
process enabling electrical wire/ribbon connections to the
interconnecting copper metallization of integrated circuits. The
structure comprises a layer of barrier metal that resists copper
diffusion, deposited on the non-oxidized copper surface in a
thickness such that the barrier layer reduces the diffusion of
copper at 250 °C by more than 80 % compared with the absence of
the barrier metal. The structure further comprises an outermost
bondable layer which reduces the diffusion of the barrier metal
at 250 °C by more than 80 % compared with the absence of the
bondable metal. Finally, a metal wire is bonded to the
outermost layer for metallurgical connection. 
     The barrier metal is selected from a group consisting of
nickel, cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten, and
alloys thereof. The outermost bondable metal layer is selected
from a group consisting of gold, platinum, and silver.

Abstract: The output of an engine (1) is recovered by a generator (2). A motor (4) is driven by the
electric power generated by the generator (2). When there is a sudden acceleration,
etc., the generation power output by the generator (2) is delayed, and when the electric
power supplied to the motor (4) is insufficient, the insufficient part is supplied from a
battery. The maximum power output of the battery decreases according to battery
temperature. However, as the response of the generation power output of the
generator (2) is increased if battery temperature is low, the above-mentioned insufficient
part is always suppressed below the maximum power output of the battery. In this
way, the inability of the battery to supply electric power required for acceleration is
prevented, and thus the problem of poor acceleration is eliminated.

Inventor: BROWN ROBERT WALTER
IPC: B29D30/00

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tire construction and
method of correcting one or more tire uniformity
characteristics. A tire (300) has two beads (802) and a
carcass reinforcement ply (820) having reinforcement cords
(821). The method is characterized by the steps of
   A) forming a portion of the tire with a material (typically
a thermoplastic), that can be rendered plastic (such as by
heating) and rendered non-plastic (such as by cooling),
which, in turn, respectively, permits and restricts
reorientation of the reinforcement cords (821);   B) rendering the material plastic, after the tire has been
vulcanized, to permit one or more of the reinforcement
cords to be reoriented;   C) reorienting one or more reinforcement cords with respect
to other reinforcement cords or tire components; and   D) rendering the material non-plastic, to restrict further
reorientation of adjacent reinforcement cords.
Reorientation of the cords can be achieved without
stretching them beyond their elastic limit.
