Patent EP-0768961-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DORSCH WERNER
IPC: H03K17/968
Filed: 1995-10-17
Abstract: Les commutateurs de commande de véhicules étaient conçus jusqu'à présent sous forme de commutateurs électriques (1) avec un élément lumineux alimenté, par exemple, à partir d'une source lumineuse extérieure (3) par un conducteur de lumière. L'invention concerne un dispositif, dans lequel une partie de la lumière est dérivée du conducteur de lumière et acheminée vers un récepteur extérieur (4) par un guide de lumière (2) sous forme d'un conducteur de signaux. Un dispositif de commande optique est inséré dans le passage des rayons du commutateur (1) et couplé à un élément de commande du commutateur (1). Ce dispositif de commande interrompt ou permet le passage des rayons, cette opération étant détectée par le récepteur (4) qui commande un courant de commutation de façon correspondante. La structure du commutateur (1) est ainsi simplifiée et l'investissement en câblage réduit.

Abstract: A process for producing trioxane comprising an aqueous formaldehyde solution with an acidic catalyst, wherein the concentrations of methanol and formic acid present in reaction system are controlled each at 0.5-5 wt.% and the concentration of methanol in terms of wt.% is controlled so as not to exceed two times the concentration of formic acid in terms of wt.%. With this process, the corrosion of production equipment is very low, the amounts of by-products formed are small, and trioxane can be produced efficiently.

Abstract: Une plaque (10) supporte un venturi (11) dans un conduit (20) et divise l'écoulement d'un fluide en un premier flux traversant le tube de venturi (11) et en un deuxième flux qui contourne ce tube. On décrit divers mécanismes de réglage permettant de faire varier la superficie de section du flux de contournement. Cet appareil est conçu pour permettre à une contre-pression présente dans le tube de venturi (11) de forcer une partie croissante de l'écoulement de fluide à contourner le tube de venturi (11) pour maintenir un taux d'aspiration relativement constant dans ce tube. Les mécanismes de réglage décrits incluent une deuxième plaque (12), similaire à la première (10) et à rotation manuelle, et un anneau de blocage (60) qui se déplace en fonction des changements intervenant dans le débit d'écoulement du fluide. Des passages de forme hélicoïdale (605) peuvent également être prévus à la sortie pour favoriser le mélange.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un convertisseur N/A comportant un circuit polarisé fournissant une tension de grille bien compensée à une source de courant pondérée intérieure au convertisseur de manière que toute modification des caractéristiques des composants du convertisseur au niveau de leur fabrication ou du fait des variations de température de ce même convertisseur soit compensée de façon à obtenir la tension analogique de sortie requise. Le circuit polarisé comprend un amplificateur (V1) et un transistor à effet de champ de type p (X9) dont le drain est ramené à l'entrée non inverseuse (NINV) de l'amplificateur, une tension de référence (VREF) étant appliquée à une entrée inverseuse (INV) de l'amplificateur. Le circuit polarisé fonctionne en feedback négatif de telle manière que l'entrée non inverseuse soit aussi proche que possible de la tension de référence. Une première résistance (R1) est reliée au drain du transistor à effet de champ de type p.

Abstract: Un système diagnostique de bord, destiné à un système de contrôle de l'évaporation de carburant dans un véhicule à moteur à combustion interne, fait appel à une pompe volumétrique (24) à piston alternatif pour créer, dans l'espace d'évaporation du carburant, une pression qui diffère sensiblement de la pression barométrique ambiante. On alimente la pompe (24) en puissance en utilisant le vide de la tubulure d'admission du moteur pour produire une course d'admission forcée au cours de laquelle un ressort interne (74) est comprimé de façon croissante et une charge d'air atmosphérique est créée dans un volume (62) d'une chambre de pompage d'air. Le vide est ensuite supprimé, et le ressort (74) se détend pour produire une course de compression forcée au cours de laquelle une partie de la charge d'air est introduite de force dans l'espace d'évaporation de carburant. L'actionnement de la pompe est géré par un ordinateur qui contient un algorithme d'actionnement de la pompe selon des modes de fonctionnement particuliers, permettant de parvenir à une décision concernant l'intégrité de l'espace d'évaporation de carburant par rapport aux fuites.

Abstract: An analogue cardiac signal (SA) passes through a low pass filter (10) which eliminates all frequencies above for example 500 Hz taken as the upper limit for characteristic signals. The resultant signal (SAF) is digitised (12) to produce a signal (SN). Sampling then takes place at a frequency at least double that of the low pass filter cut off. The digitised signal (SN) is differentiated (14) by measuring the change in successive samples over the sampling period to produce an output of limited slope (SL). The latter is subtracted (16) from the digitised signal (SN) to give a processed signal (ST) which is compared with a threshold (SD) to yield a control signal (SC).
