Abstract: At downshifting, hydraulic pressure of hydraulic
clutch on engaging side (ON clutch pressure) is increased
when an input and output speed ratio ("Gratio") has fallen
below a predetermined value YGDNS. YGDNS is variably set
depending on the vehicle speed and the engine temperature
so that it becomes a lower value at a high vehicle speed
than at a low vehicle speed, and a higher value at a low
engine temperature than at a high temperature. When a
downshifting command to a still lower speed stage is
issued during downshifting control (when FTBD=1), a
downshifting completion processing is performed in the
course of the downshifting control (step in S111). Oil
pressure in a hydraulic engaging element on the
disengaging side QDNOFF and oil pressure in a hydraulic
engaging element on the engaging side QDNON are switched
to the oil pressures at the time of completion of
downshifting, to thereby complete the first step
downshifting control at an early time. In order to
prevent unnecessary speed changing at the time of tire
locking, downshifting is prohibited when deceleration of
the vehicle speed has exceeded a predetermined value (when
a setting of FLOCK=1 is made).

Abstract: A method for the common transmission of digital source data and control data between data sources and data sinks. The data sources and data sinks are subscribers in a communication network with a ring structure. The source data and control data are transmitted in a format which prescribes a pulsed sequence of individual bit groups of identical length. Specific bit positions in each of the bit groups are reserved for source data and control data. The transmission is in a continuous data stream synchronous with a clock signal. An arbitrarily large contiguous region of the bit positions can be reserved for the source data within a bit group for data which are transmitted in data packets. Each of the data packets has a start with a subscriber address and a defined length.

Abstract: A container holder adapted to be mounted within a vehicle interior compartment
is provided comprising a housing which mounts at least one pivotable arm which defines a
container-receiving area. The arm is pivotable by a user between a retracted and an extended
position to vary the usable size of the container-receiving area. After a beverage container is
placed within the housing, a user can pivot the arm into contact with an outer surface of the
beverage container so that the beverage container is securely retained during operation of the
vehicle. The beverage container is thereby retained in the housing in a stable manner. A release
assembly is also provided which returns the arm to the retracted position when the beverage
container is removed.

altering its physical state in response to appropriate
synergistic stimulation by impinging radiation, particle
bombardment or chemical reaction, successive adjacent

Abstract: This invention relates to an electron tube having a structure for enabling a stable operation for a long time. In the electron tube, at least a confining mechanism (60,61) is arranged between a photocathode (22) and the electron incident surface of a semiconductor device (40), which are arranged to oppose each other through a container. Particularly, the area of the opening of the confining mechanism is smaller than that of the electron incident surface, thereby confining the orbits of photoelectrons from the photocathode. This structure avoids bombardment of electrons arriving at portions other than the electron incident surface of the semiconductor device and prevents the semiconductor device from being unnecessarily charged.
