Patent EP-0619351-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TIMM JUERGEN
IPC: C09J5/06
Filed: 1994-03-24
Abstract: In a method of connecting components made of metal, especially made of aluminium and aluminium alloys, a heat-curable adhesive is applied to the fitting surfaces of the components to be bonded and, in order to effect curing of the adhesive, an outer face - adjacent to the fitting surface - of one component is irradiated with infrared. In this method at least that outer face of the component which is intended for irradiation is provided with a pattern of roughness. By means of the reduction in reflectivity of the roughened surface, its absorption capacity for infrared radiation is increased. A preferred application of the method is in the adhesive bonding of shaped parts, especially bodywork panels in automotive construction.

IPC: G06F7/58

Abstract: An automobile door lock receiver module (30) and a plurality of keychain fob transmitter units (16) contain identification numbers, secret initial values, and secret feedback masks so as to authenticate encrypted messages from any of the assigned fobs, indicative of commands registered by closing switches on the fob. Each fob is synchronized with the receiving module by means of a truly random number concatenated with a secret initial value and encrypted, through a linear feedback shift register or other operations. A second secret initial value is encrypted and command bits are exclusive ORed into the low order bit positions; the two encrypted numbers are concatenated and encrypted to form a key word which is transmitted with the fob ID. Synchronization includes decrypting to recover the truly random number and the secret initial value concatenated therewith; the truly random number is compared with previously received random numbers in order to avoid copying of recently transmitted synchronization commands. Successive lock-related commands utilize the number encrypted from the truly random number and the second secret initial value as starting values, employing a pseudo random number of encryption iterations. A half-second delay between responses mitigates gaining access through numerical trials. An authenticated panic alarm command operates the headlights and horn of the vehicle but does not alter the synchronization.

Abstract: In a combined scanning near-field optic/atomic force microscope the radiated light of a light source (3) for optical characteristic measure ment is amplitude modulated by an optical modulator (1) and directed into a light-propagating probe (4). A phase and intermittent rate of the optical modulator (1) are adjusted by a phase shifter (2). A sample characteristic measuring light is radiated onto the surface of the sample (9) from the distal end of the probe (4). A light transmitted through or scattered by the sample, or fluorescent light generated from the sample (9) is directed into a photoelectric converter (13) via an optical system (10,11,12). The invention can modify the light radiating area of sample characteristic measuring light to improve the resolution of a light characteristic image of the surface topography and optical characteristic of a sample (9) at high resolution, without relying on the existence of transmissivity and conductivity in the sample.

Abstract: Each mobile unit (108,110) in a cellular communications system (100) accumulates at least one mobility or communications traffic (teletraffic) statistic representative of "typical" operation of the mobile unit within the cellular communications system. The mobile units process or collect the statistics and then transmit the aggregate statistics to a microcell (102) or macrocell (104) base station (106 or 112) at time of origination of a call to or from the mobile, request for a handoff of a call by the mobile unit or the registration process. Included within the characteristics which can be monitored in accordance with the present invention are the following: cell sojourn time; area sojourn time; call holding times; call throughput; number of previous handoffs in an ongoing call; time periods between two consecutive failed handoffs for the mobile unit; and, the ratio of calls originating from a mobile unit to the number of calls terminating to a mobile unit. The accumulated data representative of these characteristics are utilized by the receiving base station (106 or 112) to assign new and handoff calls to a microcell (102) or a macrocell (104), to prioritize call handling within the cellular communications system and to assign customzied customer service areas.
