Title: Weight detector for vehicle seat
Inventor: SAKAI MORIO
IPC: B60N2/90
Filed: 2001-09-24
Abstract: A weight detector for detecting the weight of a
passenger seated on a vehicle seat includes a first load
sensor and a second load sensor provided on opposite sides
of a rear portion of the vehicle seat. Each of the first and
second load sensors has a predetermined detection range. The
weight detector further includes a third load sensor and a
fourth load sensor provided on opposite sides of a front
portion of the vehicle seat. Each of the third and fourth
load sensors has a predetermined detection range. If a
detection value based on a load acquired by one of the first
through fourth load sensors exceeds its detection range, the
weight detector uses an old value that was determined under
proper condition. Otherwise, the weight detector determines
the size of the passenger based on the currently detected
values.

Patent EP-1189352-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DEDIC IAN JUSO
IPC: H03M1/46
Filed: 1996-02-20
Abstract: A comparator receives an analog input signal and
produces in each conversion cycle digital data that has
a first value when the input signal value is greater
than a comparison value and that otherwise has a second
value. The comparison value is dependent upon a trial
signal value determined by the converter for use in the
cycle concerned. In each conversion cycle successive
approximation circuitry adjusts the trial signal value
in dependence upon the said digital data produced in
the cycle concerned so as to tend to bring that value
into closer correspondence with the input signal value. 
     At least one conversion cycle of the series is a
correction cycle in which the comparator is operated
more than once to that respective first and second
comparisons are performed in the correction cycle. In
the correction cycle successive approximation circuitry
employs the digital data produced respectively by the
first and second comparisons when adjusting the trial
signal value. 
     Such an ADC can employ the same analog circuits as
a conventional successive-approximation ADC but can
operate at higher speed because errors in the decisions
made in one conversion cycle are, within reasonable
limits, corrected automatically in subsequent
conversion cycles.

Abstract: The invention relates to coolably fixing the root of a stator vane
(3) to the stator casing (1) by means of attachment elements, preferably
by means of attachment screws (9), which act with a force fit. In order
to reduce the thermal stress on the attachment elements and on the
stator casing, the invention proposses that the stator vane root be
designed as a hollow profile, comprising a radially inner platform (4)
matched to the contour of the flow channel (19) and, at a distance from
it, a radially outer platform (5) matched to the contour of the stator
casing (1), as well as two essentially parallel sidewalls (6,7), wherein
the outer platform (5) is equipped with at least one hole to accommodate
an attachment element (9), preferably a screw, originating from the
stator casing (1). This allows for cooling this cavity without any
essential losses of coolant and for installing vanes without any seals
between platforms and other vane root parts. 
According to one preferred embodiment, the outer platform (5) is
detachably connected to the vane root.

determined to occur according to a result of determination
that the magnitude of the filtered control current
(Iout_lpf) is in excess of a predetermined threshold current
value (Iout_lpf_th).

Abstract: In a light source unit, a switchable filter section in which
an RGB filter and a fluorescence observation filter can be
shifted into the light path is disposed in front of a lamp.
When fluorescence image mode is selected, excitation light in
a part of the wavelength band of the blue wavelength band is
supplied to an electronic endoscope, and the excitation light
which is reflected by the subject is shielded by an excitation
light shielding filter situated in front of a CCD, whereby a
fluorescence image can be obtained. On the other hand, if
normal-light image mode is selected, then R, G, B light is
supplied sequentially, and even under illumination of B light,
the color component image in the wavelength bands which are
not shielded by the excitation light shielding filter are
captured, thereby yielding a normal-light image also, and
hence making it possible to capture both a fluorescence image
and a normal-light image by means of a single image pickup
element.
