Patent EP-1129890-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FUKASAKU YOSHINORI
IPC: B60L50/15
Filed: 2001-02-27
Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle driving apparatus
capable of being mounted easily even in a narrow space such
as under-floor of the vehicle (10). The vehicle driving
apparatus comprises a first and a second generator (40, 44)
driven by an engine (20) for driving front wheels (26A, 26B),
and a motor (30) driven by receiving a power supply from the
second generator (44) to drive rear wheels (36A, 36B), the
first and second generators (40, 44) being installed in the
vicinity of an engine (20) within an engine room, the motor
(30) being arranged in the vicinity of a differential gear
(33) with which a reduction mechanism is integrated and is
positioned substantially in a central part of the rear wheels
(36A, 36B).

IPC: H05K7/20

Abstract: A housing for electronic equipment having a cooling air
flow passage system of first and second parts. The first part
receives incoming cooling air, the air flowing through the first
part and then, at one location, flowing from the first part into
and then along the second part of the system. At a second
location, some of the cooling air is returned into the first part
of the system, the remainder of the cooling air having been
expelled from the housing. Because of the return of cooling
air into the first part of the system, there is an accumulation
of incoming and returned air to pass along the first part of the
system and this accumulation is greater than the rate at which
air is entering and is being expelled from the housing. As a
result, the accumulation of air travels at an extremely high flow
rate through the first part of the system so as to maximize the
removal of heat from electronic components. The electronic
equipment may be densely populated with electronic components
while the cooling air system maintains desired operating
temperatures within the equipment. A method of removing heat
from electronic equipment is also discussed.

IPC: A61N1/36

Abstract: This is directed to an implantable multimodal neurostimulator having improved efficacy
in treating epilepsy and other neurological disorders and to processes of using that
neurostimulator. The neurostimulator itself generally has two modes of electrical stimulation:
the first involves delivering a non-responsive electrical stimulation signal which is applied to the
central nervous system to reduce the likelihood of a seizure or other undesirable neurological
even from occurring, and a second mode that involves delivering electrical stimulation signal or
signals when epileptiform waveforms are impending or extant. The responsive electrical
stimulation signal or signals are intended to terminate epileptiform activity, e.g., to
desynchronize abnormally synchronous brain electrical activity. Alternatively, the second mode
may be used to deliver sensory stimulation, e.g., a scalp or sound stimulation, to the patient
rather than deliver electrical stimulation to the patient. Finally, the implanted neurostimulator
may be used by a physician to induce epileptiform activity and then verify the effectiveness of
the parameters of the first and second neurostimulation signal or signals.

sensing device and causes the sheet processing apparatus to
process the sheet of material based upon the sensed one or
more exudants, their location and/or their concentration.

Abstract: A user graphically selects a portion of text of a first document stored on a first computer system, and chooses "Copy Export" from the edit menu. The user is then presented with a list of computer systems coupled to a wireless network and, from that list, selects a second computer system to which the selected portion of text on the first computer system is to be exported. The selected portion of text is then made available to the wireless network by sending a wireless signal from the first computer system to the second computer system indicating that the data is ready for transmission. The user identifies a location in a second document stored on the second computer system by properly positioning the cursor of the second computer system in the second document, and chooses "Past Import" on the second computer system. A wireless signal is then sent from the second computer system to the first computer system requesting that the data be transmitted. In response, the first computer system wirelessly sends the data to the second computer system. The received text portion is then inserted into the second document at the identified location.
