Patent EP-1065117-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MASHIKI ZENICHIRO
IPC: F02D9/02
Filed: 2000-06-30
Abstract: A brake booster (50) is actuated based on negative
pressure in an intake passage (32). When an engine is
operating in the stratified charge combustion, an ECU (92)
decreases the throttle opening size to lower the pressure in
the intake passage (32) if the pressure in the brake booster
(50), or a booster working pressure, is higher than a demanded
value. When the booster working pressure is lower than the
demanded value, the ECU (92) increases the throttle opening
size as the difference between the booster working pressure
and the demanded value increases. Therefore, when the
difference between the booster working pressure and the
demanded value is small, the booster working pressure is
rapidly lowered if the booster working pressure increases
above the demanded value. When the difference between the
booster working pressure and the demanded value is great, the
pumping loss of the engine is decreased.

Abstract: The apparatus to splice yarn ends at a cross wound bobbin winder, with a pneumatic action outside the yarn travel path, has a suction catch tube (25). A control wedge block (33) is at the upper end position of the suction tube (25) to give a defined action on the flap tube (18). As the suction catch tube (25) is swung against the control block (33), the initial action is to open the entry (27) into the tube (25). When the tube (25) is swung clear of the control block (33), the effect is to close the entry (27) into the tube. The control block (33) has two separate sliding paths (48). The first path (48) controls the movement of the flap tube (18) as the tube swings upwards. The second path controls the flap (18) as the tube swings downwards. The control block (33) has a base body (30) and a curved section held in a basic position by a spring (35). The sliding paths (48) at the control block (33) match an operating cam (62) at the tube flap (18), with a strap at the curved section. A notch, which is always open, is at the tube opening (27).

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un arrangement destinés à gérer un transfert de données par paquet dans un système cellulaire. Elle est avantageusement appliquée dans des systèmes basés sur le procédé d'accès multiple par répartition en code à bande large (WCDMA), tels que le système de télécommunications mobile universel (UMTS). La décision du choix du canal utilisé pour le transfert de données par paquet est basée sur un paramètre de sélection de canal, et les valeurs des paramètres nécessaires à la réalisation de la décision sont envoyées à la station mobile (630). Ces paramètres sont avantageusement envoyés sur un canal commun tel que le canal de diffusion (BCH) ou d'accès à la liaison avant (FACH). Ils comprennent la taille maximale de paquet sur le canal à accès aléatoire (RACH), la charge actuelle du canal RACH, une valeur de seuil pour les quantités de données dans des tampons de gestion de liaison radio (RLC), etc. Il est possible de définir les paramètres de manière à concerner toutes les stations mobiles, un sous ensemble des stations mobiles ou une station mobile dans la zone dans laquelle les paramètres sont envoyés. L'invention permet de minimiser la charge de capacité de transfert associée avec la signalisation et le transfert de données par paquet peut être réalisé avec des retards minimaux dus à la signalisation.

Abstract: A unified policy management system for an organization
including a central policy server and remotely situated policy
enforcers. A central database and policy enforcer databases
storing policy settings are configured as LDAP databases
adhering to a hierarchical object oriented structure. Such
structure allows the policy settings to be defined in an
intuitive and extensible fashion. Changes in the policy
settings made at the central policy server are automatically
transferred to the policy enforcers for updating their
respective databases. Each policy enforcer collects and
transmits health and status information in a predefined log
format and transmits it to the policy server for efficient
monitoring by the policy server. For further efficiencies, the
policy enforcement functionalities of the policy enforcers are
effectively partitioned so as to be readily implemented in
hardware. The system also provides for dynamically routed VPNs
where VPN membership lists are automatically created and
shared with the member policy enforcers. Updates to such
membership lists are also automatically transferred to remote
VPN clients. The system further provides for fine grain access
control of the traffic in the VPN by allowing definition of 
firewall rules within the VPN. In addition, policy server and
policy enforcers may be configured for high availability by
maintaining a backup unit in addition to a primary unit. The
backup unit become active upon failure of the primary unit.

Abstract: A pixel design for CMOS image sensors that has a high frame rate
potential and, therefore, provides motion capture capabilities. The pixel is
designed for global electronic shuttering so every pixel is exposed simultaneously
to images incident upon the pixel array plane. The present invention has the
advantages of: (1) Allowing the accommodation of changes in the pixel output
groupings for different monochrome output format or CFA patterns with only
changes in metal routing layers; (2) allowing true electronic shuttering to image
moving scene with all the pixels having the same capture time windows; and (3)
providing a symmetric global shutter gate and transfer gate to minimize pixel
related fixed pattern noise. The pixel architecture provides for a CMOS based,
active pixel image sensor comprising an array of pixels formed in rows and
columns, with each of the pixels containing at least one active circuit element.
There are a plurality of output channels formed such that each of the output
channels are operatively connected to a subset of pixels wherein each of the pixel
have an attribute that is the same. The pixel architecture also provides an output
gate region and a shutter gate region that are symmetric about the center of the
pixel. By arranging the shutter and transfer gates, a symmetric manner about the
center of the pixel, a more efficient transfer of electrons to these gates is
provided. A Pixel Output Bus structure allows configurable connections to
column-wise signal busses that provide parallel output channels.
