Title: Method to determine unstable vehicle state; involves determine difference between measured transverse acceleration and transverse acceleration calculated from steering wheel angle and vehicle speed
Inventor: SCHUELKE ARMIN
IPC: B60T8/175
Filed: 1999-12-04
Abstract: The method involves using a device to measuring transverse acceleration (aQM) or yaw rate with one device and vehicle speed (Vx) with another sensor. The steering wheel angle (WLR) is also measured, and a value for transverse acceleration (aQB) or yaw rate is calculated from the steering wheel angle and the vehicle speed. A difference is obtained (daQ) between the measured and calculated values.  An Independent claim is included for a device for implementing the method.

Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for determining fluid viscosity
comprises conveying substantially fully developed, uni-directional, and
undisturbed fluid flow through a differential pressure measurement section and
flow rate measuring means connected in line with, but separated from, the
differential pressure measurement section. A preceding flow tube section is
connected to the inlet of the differential pressure measurement section, and a
succeeding flow tube section is connected to the outlet of the differential
pressure measurement section so that entrance and exit flow effects are avoided
in the measurement section. Differential pressure measured in substantially
undisturbed, uni-directional, and fully developed fluid flow results in improved
accuracy of viscosity calculation using the Hagen-Poiseuille equation.

Abstract: Each drying airflow supplied to a silo (20, 30) has its own heater (23a, 33a). Drying airflow is controlled both as a function of temperature and the respective heater power. On reaching a given heating power, the respective drying air flow is throttled back. This assures heating to a preselected desired temperature, independently of the drying air quantity distributed into the individual air flows.   An Independent claim is included for the plant carrying out the process. A drying-air dryer (10), heater (23a, 33a), blower (6) and drying circuit (9) are employed. Flow- (11) and return- (12) lines have interconnecting branches (21, 28;31, 38) for each supply line (21, 31). Preferred features: Throttling of a drying air stream in accordance with heating power, is triggered when the relevant heater does not switch off within a given interval. In each branched line, the individual heater is located after the valve.

Abstract: A base station within a cell of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
(OFDM) based spread spectrum multiple access system employs sectorization as a way to
reduce the intercell interference. The cell is sectorized from a transmission point of view
by the directionality of the downlink antenna, and the OFDM tone set employed in each
cell is correspondingly sectorized, i.e., each sector in the cell is allocated a set of tones
within a sub-band of the available frequency bandwidth for use when transmitting into
that sector. The sub-bands assigned to each sector are periodically changed, or "hopped",
among the available sub-bands within the totally available bandwidth. Such sub-band
hopping is a so-called "slow" hopping, in that it is not performed on a symbol-by-symbol
basis but instead occurs only after more than one symbol has been transmitted in a sector
on tones within the sub-band. Each sector employs its own pilot signal, which is assigned
one or more tones within the sub-band currently employed by that sector. Similarly, for
the uplink, the base station may employ a directional receiver antenna. Preferably, the
mobile terminal only transmits on a tone that is within a sub-band that is allocated to the
sector in which the mobile terminal is located. This, sub-band, however, need not
correspond to the same location within the bandwidth as the sub-band used by the
downlink to communicate with the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A process for neutralising exhausted sulphuric acid
by means of production of di-hydrated calcium sulphate
that provides the feeding of sulphuric acid (1) and of a
soluble calcium salt (2) in a precipitator (3) for the
precipitation of di-hydrated calcium sulphate, which is
filtrated in a decantation plant (4), washed (5) and then
dried (6,7,8). In the precipitator (4) a liquid acid phase
and metal salts in solution remain. The calcium salt (2)
can be obtained in a reactor (10) by a ion exchange
reaction between a calcium ore (11) based on calcium
carbonate and an exchanging acid that is stored (9)
downstream the precipitator (3, 4) as liquid phase
separated from the calcium sulphate (6) obtaining carbon
dioxide (12). In a reactor (13) calcium hydroxide is added
(14), whereby the metal hydroxides precipitate and decant
in the plant (15). The calcium salt in solution is then
stored in the starting reservoir (2). The di-hydrated
calcium sulphate has acicular crystals of high quality,
whereas the metal hydroxides can be calcinated and with
the metal oxides resulting therefrom brick material can be
obtained for the building industry.

Abstract: A CTI system in which a user's profile comprises a workgroup containing the names of other users in whose telephony status he is interested, e.g. whether they are free or busy. The user's client displays a respective icon for each of his workgroup members, the icon has a text/coloured fill section to denote that member's telephony status. When an incoming call is received, the CTI controller sends details of the incoming call to the called user and every user whose workgroup includes the called user. Thus, at the user's client, when an icon indicates that a member of his workgroup has an incoming call, the user clicks on the icon to preview the details of the incoming call. The profiles also contain a value in seconds for "Divert To Mail After", and, on receipt of the incoming call, this value is retrieved from the called user's profile and sent as part of the details of the incoming call to the called user, and to every user whose workgroup includes the called user. In each client associated with these users, a call-associated countdown timer is started from the received value. Thus, when a user previews an incoming call, the current value of the call-associated countdown timer is displayed together with other details of that incoming call.

which is formed symmetrically, a leaf spring having a drawn
portion in at least one of plate surfaces of arm portions
and a central bent portion; and the like. As a result, in
the magnetic tape cassette, it is possible to suppress
deformation such as warpage of side walls due to molding
shrinkage difference or the like of the slider or the lower
half, to prevent deformation of the brake member due to the
molding shrinkage difference, to keep excellent dimensional
precision, to improve the dust-proof property, and to
improve a degree of freedom in designing leaf springs to
thereby reduce the cost and to improve the productivity.
Further, in the slider of the magnetic tape cassette, at
least upper and lower end faces of vertical wall surfaces 
of a side core of molds for molding the side walls are
rounded so that the side walls ride over the side core when
the molds are opened after molding to thereby make it
possible to mold a slider that is superior in terms of
outer appearance and moldability, without sacrificing the
dimensional precision. The molded article stamping method
may Further be applied to a plastic molded article in
addition to the magnetic tape cassette.
