Patent EP-1367781-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TANINAKA DAI
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 2003-05-07
Abstract: A storage system includes storage devices having
connection ports and logical device groups connected to each
connection port, and a switch having a plurality of switch
ports to which the storage devices can be connected via their
connection ports and, when a data frame is input to one of
the switch ports, being capable of outputting that data frame
from either one of the switch ports connected to one of the
connection ports to which that data frame is to be sent
according to a destination specified in that data frame. The
switch stores a table that defines a correspondence between
the destination and the connection port. In rearranging data
stored in one logical device group to another logical device
group, a management server connected to the switch sends an
update request to the switch and makes it update the
correspondence in the table.

Title: Method and apparatus for sorting out shredder waste
Inventor: OKAMURA YOSHINAO
IPC: B07B13/10
Filed: 2003-03-13
Abstract: An apparatus and a method for sorting out shredder waste
allows for lower sorting cost and higher sorting accuracy
to be achieved. 
     Shredder waste is fed into a hopper (2) to untangle it. The
untangled shredder waste is quantatively supplied into a
separating duct (6) wherein the shredder waste is subjected to
steam by a steam injector so as to be further untangled. The
shredder waste that has been further untangled in the
separating duct is carried, while being agitated, into a
striker (7). In the striker (7), the shredder waste is struck by chains (7d)
that swing as a rotating shaft rotates, so that harness waste
or the like is separated from the shredder waste. The separated
harness waste or the like is transferred onto a conveyor (8) through
an outlet. On the conveyor (8), the harness waste is separated
from heavy materials, such as rubber and rigid plastics.

Abstract: An electronically-controlled viscous fan drive (10) having a one-piece
accumulator (59) and reservoir (35) located on the top side of the clutch. The
accumulator also has a low pressure (112) and high pressure fill (114) hole for allowing

fluid from the reservoir to the anti-bleedback chamber through the fill holes
by energizing or deenergizing the spring based on engine operating
conditions. The valve disk may be a one-piece or two-piece design. The
accumulator is designed to prevent morning sickness associated with the
flow of viscous fluid from the reservoir to the operating chamber during
engine off situations.
Patent EP-1355510-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HOOVER ALAN ANDERSON
IPC: H04R5/04
Filed: 2003-04-03
Abstract: There is provided an acoustic sound reproducing apparatus for a first
audio signal and having an input terminal for receiving a second audio signal, a
selector switch and at least one loudspeaker. The at least one loudspeaker is driven
by an output signal from one of the first or second audio signal through the selector
switch. As a result, the acoustic sound reproducing apparatus, and the apparatus
providing the second audio signal, can commonly use a single loudspeaker or set of
loudspeakers. When the external audio signal is selected, the internal loudspeaker(s)
becomes part of the external loudspeaker arrangement for a surround sound system.
When more than one loudspeaker is used, the loudspeakers are connected to each
other in series when they are connected to be driven by the external second audio
input signal instead of each being driven by their respective amplifiers. This permits
the loudspeakers to be driven by an external amplifier having a higher power output
than the internal power amplifier so that the loudspeakers will not be damaged when
driven by a higher power external amplifier.
