Patent EP-1326036-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WARNER RUSSELL K
IPC: F16H57/00
Filed: 2003-01-03
Abstract: A noise reduction structure is provided for use with
a meshing gear assembly, such as in a power take-off unit
for selectively providing power to one or more rotatably
driven accessories. The meshing gear assembly includes
meshing input and output gears (10,20) that are supported within a
housing and are rotatably driven during use. A helical
coil wrap (40) spring extends about and is frictionally engaged
with a portion of the output gear. A first end of the
wrap spring extends outwardly therefrom to form a control
tang that extends adjacent to an abutment surface provided
on the housing of the power take-off unit. As a result,
the wrap spring is prevented from rotating relative to the
housing as the output gear is rotatably driven. The wrap
spring is wound and sized to frictionally engage the
output gear and thereby impart a constant drag thereon as
the output gear is rotated in a first rotational direction
during use and to prevent the output gear from rotating in
a second rotational direction opposite to the first
rotational direction. As a result, the amount of noise
that is generated when the power take-off unit is operated
is significantly reduced.

Abstract: It is determined whether each block (51) including a plurality
of pixels extracted from a basic field (30) has an edge or not. Each
of the pixels forming the block (51) having an edge is then analysed
to determine whether it is stationary or non-stationary. 
An absolute value of a difference is then calculated between a pixel
determined to be non-stationary and a pixel (91 or 92) in each pixel
position or pixel positions (82 to 85) in a reference field (40)
adjacent to the non-stationary pixel, and a correlation is found
between such pixels in consideration of the calculated difference
absolute-value. A motion vector is determined by the block matching
method according to results of the determination, and allocated to
each of the pixels. Thus, the motion vector of each block is
corrected to an accuracy of each of the pixels.

Abstract: L'invention concerne le domaine des filtres à particules pour gaz d'échappement de moteur diesel. Le but de l'invention est d'optimiser le procédé de filtration, notamment en termes de régénération des moyens de filtration, de façon à apporter une solution satisfaisante au problème de colmatage desdits moyens de filtration par des particules de carbone. Pour ce faire, le procédé selon l'invention dans lequel tout ou partie des particules contenues dans les gaz d'échappement sont retenues sur des moyens de filtration et sont brûlées grâce à l'action d'un catalyseur de combustion, est caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste essentiellement à obstruer au moins une partie des moyens de filtration dès que la température θg des gaz d'échappement à filtrer devient inférieure ou égale une température seuil θs, de manière à limiter, voire à éviter, le refroidissement de la partie obstruée et à la maintenir à une température θo supérieure ou égale à θs jusqu'au moment où θg redeviendra supérieure à θs, et permettre alors une régénération accéléré de cette partie obstruée des moyens de filtration. L'invention a également pour objet un dispositif de filtration de gaz d'échappement permettant la mise en oeuvre du susdit procédé de filtration à régénération continue et régulière des moyens filtrants.

Abstract: The act of blowing an unpassivated electrical fuse (for example, fuse 405) using a laser can result in the splattering of the fuse material and result in electrical short circuits. A blast barrier (for example blast barrier 406) formed around an area of the fuse that is blown by the laser helps to contain the splattering of the fuse material. The blast barrier may be formed from the same material as the fuses themselves and therefore, can be created in the same fabrication step.

Abstract: A method for optimizing a source synchronous clock reference signal timing to capture data from a memory device (e.g., DDR SDRAM) includes conducting an iterative two-dimensional data eye search for optimizing the delay of the source synchronous clock reference signal (e.g., DQS). Embodiments of the present invention are directed to tuning the delay for each device for the optimal margin in two dimensions: maximize the distance from the data eye walls and maximize the noise margin on the interface. An iterative data eye search is performed while varying the DQS delay timing and noise margin.

Abstract: An image-forming apparatus includes image-forming sections (11BK,11Y,11M,11C), a density detector (19), and a controller (21). Each image-forming section (11BK,11Y,11M,11C) has an exposing unit (13BK,13Y,13M,13C) and a developing unit (25BK,25Y,25M,25C). The image-forming section (11BK,11Y,11M,11C) prints an image of a density detection pattern having a plurality of pattern segments of different duties. This half-tone image is printed on a print medium under a predetermined printing condition. The density detector outputs detection values indicative of densities of the plurality of pattern segments printed on the print medium. The controller (21) determines a correction value based on the detection values and corresponding target values of density to modify the printing condition for the image-forming sections (11BK,11Y,11M,11C). The correction value may be a correction to the amount of light to be emitted from the exposing unit (13BK,13Y,13M,13C). The correction value may be a correction to the developing voltage to be supplied to the developing unit (25BK,25Y,25M,25C). The correction value may be weighted in accordance with detected variations of density.

Abstract: The module under focus herein to be applied mainly in presses is made up of
a drive axis (1) in charge of operating a toothed belt (3) whose ends are fixed to a
lifter (9) that displaces the upper part of the module in question until it reaches point
"B", whereby a horizontal limiter travel (11) transfers the movement of the toothed
belt (3) towards the vertical axis until the programmed position "C" after which the
known operating of the non-described-herein "X" axis occurs. After this stage, the
said module starts returming by inverting the direction in which it was going (so as
to turn clockwise), the toothed belt (3) thereby returning down to the vertical axis
until reaching point "B", where the vertical limiter travel is; this way, the
abovementioned belt carries on its movement back to the module in question until
the starting point "A".
