Abstract: A computer implemented abductive reasoner checks for contradictions in the reasoning operations during processing and determines subsequent processing dependent upon the results of the checking. Constraints on variables may be imposed to permit proofs to be pursued which otherwise would involve contradictions. Different types of abductive reasoning step may be assigned different costs and proofs or future processing steps selected dependent upon the costing. Alternatively or in addition, reasoning operations and the resulting proofs, if any, may be grouped according to the types of reasoning steps involved and provision may be included for pursuing operations involving less costly reasoning steps in preference or prior to operations which may be more costly. Where successive goals are to be proved, the proof of each successive goal may be performed by reference to hypotheses established in proofs of previous goals. In applications involving the production of control signals, commands defining required control signals may be provided in the form of premises in rules contained in a knowledge base with which the abducer operates and means may be provided for outputting said commands and converting them to the required control signals.

Abstract: 5 n7 An electrochemical fluid delivery device of the present invention includes a case, pressure generating part and fluid reservoir part. The case has a cover capable of being opened and closed. When the cover is closed after the fluid reservoir part is accommodated in the case, the inside of the case can be maintained in an airtight condition. The pressure generating part includes a power supply part and electrochemical cell part. When a direct current flows in the electrochemical cell part, gas is generated and accumulates in the airtight case. By the pressure of gas, the fluid reservoir part is pressurized so that the fluid can be delivered. The amount of gas generated at constant pressure by the electrochemical cell part is determined by a quantity of electricity (current x time). Since the amount of fluid to be delivered is proportional to the amount of generated gas, the amount of fluid to be delivered in a unit time can be determined by the intensity of a current. A total amount of delivered fluid can be determined by the quantity of electricity.

A driving electrode (10) for driving the movable electrode (6) is fixed on the substrate (3) at an interval from the movable electrode (6). The distance 2L between the driving and movable electrodes (10, 6) is twice the distance L between the movable and reference electrodes.

Abstract: A fuel metering control system for an internal combustion engine including a feedback loop having an adaptive controller and an adaptation mechanism that estimates controller parameters            θ     ^           . The adaptive controller corrects the quantity of fuel injection to bring a controlled variable obtained at least based on an output of said air/fuel ratio sensor, to a desired value. The adaptation mechanism is input with the controlled variable once per prescribed crank angle such as TDC of a certain cylinder and estimates the controller parameters (vector). The adaptive controller is therefore operated to synchronize with every prescribed crank angle, e.g., every TDC of all cylinders of the internal combustion engine. With the arrangement, the system enables adaptive control of a commercially practical internal combustion engine without degrading control performance.

Abstract: A strip conveyor and stacker receives cut elongated flexible strips from a strip former and by conveying and stacking the strips produces a stack of strips such as a cellular panel for a window covering. The conveyor receives the strips from the strip former and includes a foraminous conveyor belt which holds the strips on the surface thereof by suction. At the stacker, the strips are discharged from the conveyor belt by applying a burst of pressurized air, thereby ejecting the strips into a stacker magazine. As the strips are stacked, the magazine is indexed to increase its depth, or a cellular structure formed by the stacked strips is withdrawn from the body of the magazine. An auxiliary magazine may be used to form a preliminary stack of soft, flexible strips prior to stacking in the magazine. A strip defect sensor scans each strip and causes the ejection of defective strips from the apparatus.
