Patent DE-69617268-D1 (DE)
Inventor: CROYLE R

Abstract: The improved vehicle navigation system and method uses information from a Global Positioning System (GPS) to obtain velocity vectors, which include speed and heading components, for "dead reckoning" the vehicle position from a previous position. If information from the GPS is not available, then the improved vehicle navigation system uses information from an orthogonal axes accelerometer, such as two or three orthogonally positioned accelerometers, to propagate vehicle position. Because the GPS information should almost always be available, the improved vehicle navigation system relies less on its accelerometers, thereby allowing the use of less expensive accelerometers. The improved vehicle navigation system retains the accuracy of the accelerometers by repeatedly calibrating them with the velocity data obtained from the GPS information. The improved vehicle navigation system calibrates the sensors whenever GPS data is available (for example, once a second at relatively high speeds). Furthermore, the improved vehicle navigation system does not need to rely on map matching to calibrate sensors. System flexibility is improved because map matching is oblivious to the hardware, and the system hardware can be updated without affecting map matching or a change in the map database.

Abstract: A waveguide sensing element has a substrate having an input opening adapted to house an input optical fiber and an output opening adapted to house an output optical fiber. The input optical fiber transmits electromagnetic radiation, and the output optical fiber emits the electromagnetic radiation. The waveguide sensing element also has a guiding layer disposed adjacent the substrate. The guiding layer has a beveled end face. The angle of the bevel is chosen so that the guiding layer selects only those modes within a given range-i.e., high order modes. This increases the spectral absorption measurement sensitivity as compared to a waveguide sensing element which uses the complete mode spectrum. Such a highly sensitive waveguide sensing element has been found to be particularly useful as an internal reflection spectroscopic sensing element. Moreover, the waveguide sensing element of the present invention is particularly useful in a process environment, where the corrosive effects of chemicals make on-line spectral absorption measurements difficult. Thus, the waveguide sensing element of the present invention may be rear-fired, which is particularly attractive from a process seal integrity standpoint.

Abstract: The present invention is a window regulator mechanism for vertically moving a window panel mounted within a motor vehicle door. The mechanism comprises an elongated guide rail member mounted within the vehicle door and having a base portion with a pair of side flange portions. A first of the pair of side flange portions has a nose portion extending laterally outwardly therefrom. A second of the pair of side flange portions has a convex exterior surface. A window moving structure engages the window panel and has a base member and a pair of side leg portions extending from opposing sides thereof. One of the side leg portions has a nose-receiving groove formed in an inwardly facing surface thereof. The window moving structure is slidably mounted on the guide rail member. A manually operable actuating mechanism is constructed to slidably move the window moving structure vertically along the guide rail member. The nose portion of the guide rail member is received within the nose-receiving groove of the window moving structure and the convex exterior surface of the guide rail member is slidably engaged with an inwardly facing surface of another of the side leg portions of the window moving structure opposite the nose-receiving groove such that (1) relative pivotal movement between the guide rail member and the window moving structure about a fixed pivot axis extending longitudinally through the nose portion is permitted and (2) relative movement between the guide rail member and the window moving structure in a radial direction with respect to the fixed pivot axis is substantially restricted to thereby reduce vibrations which occur as a result of forcibly moving the vehicle door into closing engagement with a motor vehicle body.
