Abstract: The invention provides fully aqueous-based antiperspirant compositions for application onto the skin for reducing or inhibiting body malodor and perspiration. The compositions contain blocked polyglycols which function as detackifiers and/or emollients, and which provide a completely soluble environment for the antiperspirant active ingredient. The compositions of the invention are stable, are easily and inexpensively prepared and manufactured, and provide versatile formulations which may be delivered and applied to the skin by a variety of means, including roll-ons, aerosols, and the like. Without the need for emulsions or stringent alcohol additives, the aqueous-based antiperspirant solution technology of the invention provides compositions that are clear, non-tacky, quick drying, and leave little to no visible residue or film on the skin following application.

Abstract: In the 1394 communication, communication at a data rate of S100, 5200, S400, S800, S1600, 53200 or at a faster speed in the future can be performed. When the 1394 communication is performed with an optical-fiber cable and a UTP cable, it is possible to cope with high-speed communication by arranging bits being not used at a low speed, on a data stream. Transmission of data rates is realized by sending speed-control symbols at a predetermined speed. As for a Tp bias signal, an equivalent object is achieved by sending predetermined control symbols.

Granted: 2002-07-30
Abstract: Dividing the function of wireless handset control from the function of telecommunication call control in a software architecture of a wireless telecommunication system. The wireless handset control function follows the wireless handset as it registers and is handed off from switch node to switch node; the telecommunication call control function remains on the switch node on which the wireless handset first became active and remains on that switch node until the wireless handset becomes inactive. Upon the wireless handset becoming inactive, the wireless telecommunication call control function is transferred to the switch node on which the wireless handset is currently registered.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une munition encartouchée comprenant un projectile (11) logé dans une douille (10). Une cartouche (12) placée dans la douille (10) délimite une chambre à haute pression (21), dans laquelle est logée une charge propulsive (14). La cartouche est entourée d'une chambre à basse pression (10a) délimitée par les parois internes de la douille (10) et par une partie du fond du projectile (11). Une composition traçante est logée à l'arrière du projectile (11) dans un tube (27) qui fait saillie dans la chambre à haute pression (21) à travers la paroi supérieure de la cartouche (12). Le projectile et la douille sont reliés par un point destiné à la rupture (12d). La pression pour expulser le projectile (11) hors de la douille est fournie par la pression régnant aussi bien dans la chambre à haute pression (21) que dans la chambre à basse pression (10a). Lors de l'expulsion du projectile, l'extraction de la composition traçante hors de la chambre à haute pression (21) accroît le volume de cette dernière. Ces mesures permettent d'éviter des pointes de pression à forte pente dans la courbe de pression lors de l'expulsion du projectile. Dans le même temps, pratiquement l'ensemble du volume du projectile est disponible pour une charge efficace.

Abstract: A plow assembly is disclosed for vehicles such as pickup trucks and tractors for moving snow or other materials. The plow assembly has at least one extendable, forwardly pivotable plow wing which is extendable on one end of a main plow by sliding movement along the front of the plow between a retracted and an extended position in which the plow wing is generally aligned with the plow front surface. The plow wing is also pivotally mounted on a hinge for movement between the extended position and a forwardly angled position in which the plow wing front surface extends at an angle to the plow front surface. A pair of fluid power cylinders are connected to the plow wing to move the wing between the retracted, extended and forwardly angled positions. In the preferred embodiment, an extendable plow wing is included on each end of the main plow with a pair of fluid cylinders connected to each of the respective plow wings. The fluid cylinders in each respective pair are operable independently of one another to move the plow wings independently between their respective retracted, extended and forwardly angled positions. When both plow wings are pivoted to their forwardly angled positions, the plow assembly has a general U-shape which facilitates pushing snow or other material without the snow slipping off the plow blade ends. The main plow may include a section formed from polymeric sheet material for weight reduction.

Abstract: A method for generating sentences of text for selected medical findings in an electronic medical diagnostic system (10) is disclosed. First, a descriptive phrase for each medical finding is created. Each descriptive phrase is then analyzed to determine possible truncation points for modifying the descriptive phrase of one medical finding if another medical finding is also selected. A code at each possible truncation point is then entered into the phrase. Language to be inserted at each of the truncation points is then created and the descriptive phrase and modifying language are stored in database file (20) and knowledge base file (22).      Finally, the stored descriptive phrases and modifying language are then combined to form a readable text on display (12) for the medical findings selected from the databases.

Abstract: A method and system/apparatus implementing a non-model based Decentralized Feedforward Adaptive Algorithm (DFAA) for active vibration control of an actively-driven element, such as an Active Vibration Absorber (AVA) (24). The AVA (24) preferably includes an inertial tuning mass (42) and a voice coil assembly (46) and is contained in an active vibration control system (20) wherein the method and system/apparatus reduce vibration of a vibrating member (22) at an attachment point (26) by receiving an error signal from an error sensor (28) such as an accelerometer and a reference signal from a tachometer (32) or accelerometer (34), where the reference signal is correlated to, or indicative of the frequency content of, a primary vibration source (36) and calculating an updated output signal via an electronic controller (39) using the non-model based DFAA to dynamically drive the actively-driven element, such as AVA (24). The method and system/apparatus using DFAA is effective for reduction of both tonal and broadband vibration. The method approaches the performance of Filtered-x LMS control, yet is decentralized and does not require information regarding the plant.

Abstract: In the communication system performing transmission by generating a vacant period in a slotted mode during data transmission in order to perform various process, such as different frequency carrier quality measurement or so forth, a control signal for maintaining a communication quality is inserted even in the vacant period. Therefore, a link quality may not be degraded even if the vacant period is long. Namely, when a pilot signal is used as the control signal, even in the vacant period, measurement of the link quality of the forward link with the pilot signal is performed in the mobile station to report the result of measurement to the base station. Therefore, transmission power control of the forward link can be performed according to the report in the base station. Therefore, degradation of the forward link can be eliminated.

Granted: 2006-04-18
Abstract: In a method for controlling a powered sliding door system, a standard ti me period for the sliding door to pass a calibration interval defined near a fully closed position under a standard duty ratio condition is measured, and the duty rat io of the drive pulse signal for the motor in the remaining interval of operation is determined from this standard time period so that the sliding door may move at a prescribed speed irrespective of the load acting on the door. This control method can be favorably used in combination with the process of detecting an obstacle in the path of the sliding door, which is based on the detection in the reduction in the speed of the sliding door, without any interference between them.
