Title: Steuerung von Kupplungen, insbesondere von solchen für Antriebsnaben in Fahrrädern
Inventor: STEUER WERNER
IPC: B62M11/16
Filed: 2003-02-20
Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kupplung zum Gangwechsel in einem Getriebe mit einem treibenden Kupplungsteil und mindestens einem angetriebenen Kupplungsteil, wobei das eine der Kupplungsteile ein bewegliches Koppelelement und das andere der Kupplungsteile ein Gegenprofil mit mindestens einer Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme einer Antriebskante des Koppelelements aufweist, wobei die Antriebskante des beweglichen Koppelelements in die Ausnehmungen hinein oder aus den Ausnehmungen heraus bewegt werden kann, wobei das Koppelelement zwischen zwei zueinander relativ drehenden Kupplungsteilen zum Zweck der Herstellung oder Lösung einer drehfesten Verbindung angeordnet ist und wobei ein Beeinflussungselement das Koppelelement vornehmlich zur Herstellung des Laufzustands "Antrieb" steuert. Ein von außerhalb des Getriebes betätigbares Steuerelement wirkt mit dem Beeinflussungselement zusammen und kann insbesondere doppelt wirkende Koppelelemente für den Laufzustand "Leerlauf" außer Eingriff halten, wodurch das Getriebe ohne Erzeugung störender Geräusche umlaufen kann. Von Vorteil ist die Möglichkeit der Anordnung zweier Koppelelemente in Achsrichtung gesehen hintereinander mit einem für beide wirkendem Steuerelement.

Abstract: A method of driving a PDP including alternately-arranged X and Y electrodes and A electrodes crossing the X and Y electrodes provides a recurring cycle of a resetting period, an addressing period, and a sustaining period. The method includes applying a ramp waveform in the resetting period. Discharge starting threshold voltages between the X and Y electrodes and between the A and Y electrodes are denoted by V tXY  and V tAY , respectively. Voltages applied between the X and Y electrodes and between the A and Y electrodes at the trailing edge of the ramp waveform are denoted by V XY  and V AY , respectively. An offset voltage of the voltage applied between the A and Y electrodes at the end of the sustaining period is denoted by V aoff . In such a case, the voltage of a driving waveform for each electrode is set so as to satisfy the relational expression "2V tAY  - V tXY  ≤ 2V AY  - V XY  - 2V aoff ".

Abstract: An automatic player piano has a feedback control loop (64) for each of the black/ white keys (72/ 74); the controller (100) firstly determines a reference trajectory, i.e., a target key position (rx) varied with time for each key (72/74) to be moved in the playback, and calculates a target key velocity (rv), and compares a true key position (yx) reported from a key sensor (27) and a true key velocity (yv) calculated from the true key position with the target key position (rx) and target key velocity (rv) for optimizing the duty ratio of the driving signal; the positional difference (ex) and the velocity difference (ev) are independently multiplied by a positional gain (kx) and a velocity gain (kv) so as to determine the optimum duty ratio; since the ratio of the velocity gain (kv) to the positional gain (kx) is 1 to 3, the key travels along the reference trajectory without oscillation and overshoot.
