Patent EP-1052378-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YOSHIKI KOICHI
IPC: F01L13/00
Filed: 2000-04-28
Abstract: A controller for an internal combustion engine has a
hydraulic valve characteristic changing mechanism for changing
valve operating characteristics of suction and exhaust valves;
a valve system provided with a hydraulic valve phase variable
mechanism that changes the phase; a map that stores a fuel injection
quantity and an ignition timing in response to the valve operating
characteristics; and delay time setting means for setting a delay
time required to complete changeover of the valve operating
characteristics, based on operating oil properties detected from
behavior of a valve phase variable mechanism, to change the map
after the delay time has elapsed. Thus, a valve operating
characteristic changing timing coincides with a map changing
timing to thereby achieve an improved performance of the internal
combustion engine.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a reception unit and
a recording unit (1100). The reception unit receives a broadcast
signal, out of a plurality of broadcast signals that can
be specified by conditions made up of broadcast frequencies
and other items such as reception areas. The recording
unit (1100) records (1) the broadcast signal received by the
reception unit and (2) broadcast ID information that
enables the broadcast signal to be identified out of a
plurality of broadcast signals, onto a recording medium (1200)
in an interrelated manner. The broadcast ID information
can be a broadcast station name, which is specified based
on a broadcast format, a broadcast channel number
corresponding to a broadcast frequency, and a code for
identifying a reception area or the like. A playback
apparatus (1100) includes a reading unit, a display unit (1210) and a
playback unit (1100). The reading unit reads a program, which
is a broadcast signal during a certain period, and at least
part of broadcast ID information, the program and
broadcast ID information having been recorded in an
interrelated manner on a recording medium (1200). The display
unit (1210) displays at least part of the read broadcast ID
information. The playback unit (1100) plays back the read
program.

Abstract: A canning structure comprises a ceramic honeycomb
structure (10) which is to be loaded with a catalyst,
canned in a metal case (11) and being held by holding
material (13). An impermeable film (60) is provided
between the ceramic honeycomb structure and the holding
material. To load a catalyst, a catalyst slurry is
poured in only on the ceramic honeycomb structure side of
the impermeable film, thereby preventing the holding
material from carrying the catalyst. Thus, the holding
material does not carry expensive catalyst. Chipping and
cracking of the ceramic honeycomb structure can be
prevented during transport, during loading of catalyst,
during canning, and during handling.

Patent EP-1153297-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KATZ DAVID H
IPC: A61P37/06
Filed: 2000-02-15
Abstract: The invention provides an IgE and antigen-specific screening assay for use in identifying agents which suppress the IgE mediated immune response to antigen. The assay is performed in vivo in Animals which hyper respond to antigen by producing exaggerated levels of IgE. The animals are sensitized to an antigen during a specific window of sensitivity which closes a day after the animal has been treated to produce the IgE hyper responsive phenotype. The screening assay is performed in the animals by treating them with a candidate IgE suppressor agent in conjunction with further immunization made after closure of the window of sensitivity defined by the invention. Positive results (indicating that the candidate agent has IgE suppressive activity) are obtained in the assay through measurement of a decline in antigen-specific IgE in the animal following its treatment with the candidate agent. The screening assay may also be utilized to measure other components of the immune response to antigen, including IgG1 and IgG2a antibody production.

Abstract: A flange portion (87) is provided on a
fuel pipeline (80) for discharging fuel. A pipeline
insertion hole (63) in which one end portion of the fuel
pipeline (80) is to be inserted is formed at the outlet of
a discharge through-hole (62). A wall portion (64) extends
from the outer surface of a fuel tank (21) in such a manner
as to surround the pipeline insertion hole (63). Claws (95)
are mounted on the wall portion (64), and then the claws (95)
are engaged with the flange portion (87) of the fuel
pipeline (80). With this configuration, the fuel pipeline
(80) is prevented from being pulled out of the pipeline
insertion hole (63). 
     The fuel pipeline can be easily, speedily
connected to a fuel tank by inserting the fuel pipeline
in the pipeline insertion hole, and engaging the claws
with the flange portion of the fuel pipeline. Further,
the projecting amount of the wall portion can be made
smaller than the projecting amount of a conventional fuel
pipeline connecting portion which projects from the tank
outer surface to be connected to the fuel pipeline. As a
result, it is possible to carry the fuel tank without
interference of the wall portion with other members, and 
hence to improve the handling performance of the fuel
tank.
