Patent EP-1548252-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HANASATO MAKI
IPC: F02B61/02
Filed: 2003-09-11
Abstract: The present apparatus comprises a plurality of throttle valves 30
respectively disposed at each air intake passage 21 corresponding to each cylinder
of an engine, a plurality of throttle shafts 41, 42 to support the plurality of throttle
valves 30 for each group, and a plurality of drive means 60, 70 to respectively
drive the throttle shaft 41, 42. With this structure, open-close control of one
group of the throttle valves and that of the other group can be performed
separately. Therefore, the combustion condition, namely the power, can
adequately be controlled in accordance with the driving conditions, and fine
control, even to perform ISC, is possible. 
     In this manner, it becomes possible to obtain electronic control and fine
control to a multiple throttle apparatus of an engine mounted on a motorcycle.

Patent EP-1521369-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KARAKI ISUKE
IPC: H03L7/00
Filed: 2004-09-17
Abstract: The phase of a clock signal output from an SAW oscillator
(3) is corrected by a phase control section (8) so that a signal
synchronizing with the carrier wave of a standard time and
frequency signal, that is, a carrier wave signal
phase-synchronizes with the phase-corrected clock signal. Therefore, when a
standard time and frequency signal can be received, it is
possible to correct a clock signal in accordance with a carrier
wave signal which can be generated from the standard time and
frequency signal anytime. Therefore, even if the operational
environment (for example, temperatures) of the SAW oscillator
(3) is changed and the phase of a clock signal output from the
SAW oscillator (3) is fluctuated due to the change, it is possible
to synchronize the fluctuated clock signal with a standard
time and frequency signal, that is, the carrier wave of a radio
wave for providing a very accurate frequency standard and time
service signal and, as a result, it is possible to improve the
accuracy of the clock signal in accordance with the correction.

Abstract: A seatbelt apparatus includes an electric motor 20 for winding a
seatbelt 12, and a microcomputer 30 for controlling the electric motor 20.
The microcomputer 30 controls the electric motor 20 so as to wind the
seatbelt 12 at a winding load which increases to a first winding load at a first
rising gradient when collision is detected using a detected length and a
detected vehicle velocity by a length sensor 41 and a vehicle velocity sensor
42. The microcomputer 30 controls the electric motor 20 so as to wind the
seatbelt 12 at a winding load which increases to a second winding load
which is larger than the first winding load at a second rising gradient which
is larger than the first rising gradient when an emergency braking operation
is detected by detection signal from a brake switch 43. Therefore, the
seatbelt can be wound at a winding mode and a winding load which can
protect a passenger without giving much feeling of discomfort.

Inventor: BEHUN BRYAN S
IPC: C12Q1/22
Filed: 2004-02-23
Abstract: A high capacity reader detects fluorescence emitted by a biological indicator to determine the efficacy of a sterilization cycle. The reader permits a large number of biological indicators to be read in rapid succession. For example, the biological indicators may be pre-incubated in a separate, high capacity incubator and then placed in a high capacity reader for fluorescence detection. The reader makes a positive or negative growth determination based on a single fluorescence threshold comparison for each pre-incubated biological indicator. The single fluorescence threshold comparison involves comparison of measured fluorescence to a baseline fluorescence of a reference biological indicator. The reader acquires the baseline fluorescence from the reference biological indicator, and thereafter uses the baseline fluorescence as the threshold for subsequent biological indicators processed by the reader. In addition, the reader may generate output for storage, processing and display of biological indicator results.
