Title: Methode de mesure sans contact et appareil servant a produire un signa l representatif d'une distance separant des surfaces opposees
Inventor: MISSOUT GILLES
IPC: G01B7/00
Filed: 2001-11-07
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de mesure sans contact et un dispositif servant à produire un signal représentatif d'une distance séparan t des surfaces opposées d'une première et d'une seconde pièce, lesdites pièces  étant séparées par une distance restreinte, comme dans le cas du rotor et du  stator d'une machine à rotation électrique. Le procédé se caractérise par la  mise en place d'un détecteur sur la surface de la première pièce. Le détecte ur comprend des première et seconde plaques conductrices superposées, parallèle s et électriquement isolées l'une de l'autre. La seconde plaque se trouve entr e la première plaque et la surface de la première pièce. La seconde plaque reçoit un signal haute fréquence via une résistance. Une impédance élevée, u ne capacité d'entrée faible, une tension amplifiée à gain unitaire sont introduits via la résistance, en même temps que le signal haute fréquence. L a seconde plaque reçoit un signal de sortie de l'amplificateur. Le signal de sortie de l'amplificateur est directement proportionnel à la distance entre les deux surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cantilever seat fixing, in particular for rail vehicles for personal transport. The aim of the invention is to disclose a seat fixing which may be flexibly applied, independent of the usual height a nd positional variation of the C-rails (4, 5), whereby said flexibility permits the number of differing seat holders to be reduced, thus leading to a lower price. Three or more different seat heights (between the range .DELTA.H .congruent.120mm) should also be capable of being set and should be simple t o assemble and various seat shell thicknesses or different types of cushion systems from different manufacturers should also be capable of being positioned in the functionally required seat height. The above is achieved with a seat fixing comprising a horizontal support (2), fixed on one side to vertical elements (6) and at least one cross-piece (3), fixed on one side to the horizontal support (2) and on the other side to the vertical elements and/or to the floor in the vicinity of a corner region between the vertical elements and a floor (7). The horizontal support is fixed to an upper connection point on the vertical elements (6) by means of a side wall adaptation element (1), in which the side wall adaptation element comprises at least two housing points of the horizontal support and/or the upper connecti on point, which gives a variable seat height.

Title: Signal recognition in an on-frequency repeater
Inventor: ZHANG JIE
IPC: H04B1/38
Filed: 2004-03-03
Abstract: An intelligent gain controller (IGC) for an on-frequency repeater implements a method for identifying a desired narrow band signal within a broadband RF signal.      Thus, a candidate narrow band signal within the broadband signal is isolated. The isolated narrow band signal is then processed to detect repeating features of the narrow band signal. The detected repeating features are then analyzed to identify the signal type of the isolated narrow band signal. System gain of the in-frequency repeater can be controlled based on the power level of the identified narrow band signal.

Title: Improvements in and relating to portable defibrillators
Inventor: HERBERT KEVIN
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 2002-11-28
Abstract: A portable defibrillator which includes a self-test circuit (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 & 9) in which during the self-test electrical energy is discharged from one or a bank of capacitors (4) to a change receiving circuit (5, 8) which recycles the energy to a rechargeable battery (1) to thereby prolong the original charge within the battery. An alternative embodiment of the invention includ es a charge receiving circuit (I1-I4, S1-S3, 21) containing a relatively high Ohmic value/low Wattage resistor means (21) such that the discharge occurs over a relatively long period of time, therefore dispensing with the requirement for a heat sink. The resistor means may be a single high value resistor or comprise a network (21a) of two or more smaller value resistors. The invention also provides optional switching (5, I1-I4, S1-S3, 21) of the discharge electrical energy during a self-test to either recycle it to the rechargeable battery or discharge it through the resitor. In a further refinement the self-test is carried out on a bank of capacitors (4) in rotation, which may also include the energy discharged from one capacitor being discharged into the next capacitor in the bank such that all capacitor s are charged and discharged from substantially a single power input.
