Abstract: A coarse filter/ strainer comprising a dished grid (2) formed from a reversibly deformable e.g. thermoplastic material, can be flipped/ inverted when fouled with debris, such as leaves, to throw off the retained matter and then be ready for re-use. When mounted in a duct (5), the grid curvature adopted during flow is reversed when the air flow is stopped, and throws off surface-held debris. Independent claims are included for a filter element (2) which is clipped into a mounting (4) by lugs (3, 3'), motor vehicles and ducts fitted with such self cleaning filter, and the self cleaning process and its use, particularly in a motor vehicle.

Abstract: An improved handheld electronic device, keypad, and method in accordance with the invention meet these and other needs. An improved handheld electronic device having an improved keypad provides enhanced usability and reduced size by organizing its keys in pairs, with a pair of keys being disposed on a support. Each key of a pair of keys is individually actuatable. An actuation of a key causes a primary conductor associated with the key set to electrically to connect a pair of contacts and to cause a secondary conductor associated with the key to electrically connect another pair of contacts. The primary conductor is a collapsible dome or a tactile switch that can electrically connect the pair of contacts and that can provide a particular tactile feedback to the user. The secondary conductor is a conductor other than a collapsible dome or a tactile switch. An actuation of any key or of any pair of keys thus provides to the user a consistent tactile feedback, i.e., from a collapse of a single dome. An improved method in accordance with the invention is also disclosed.

IPC: H03L1/00
Filed: 2005-04-01
Abstract: Shown is a method and circuit for determining a calibration factor between a fast, high
accuracy clock signal and a slow, low accuracy clock signal, which can be realised with
a minimum number of electronic units, and which obtains the calibration factor in a very
short time, thus minimising power consumption of the circuit. The present invention
operates by counting the number of cycles of a high accuracy clock signal during a single
cycle of a low accuracy clock signal to obtain a first number representing the number of
cycles counted and then successively summing the first number until a sum of the first
numbers reaches a first predetermined value. The count of the number of summing
operations required to reach the first predetermined value is then used to determine the
calibration parameter, which is proportional to the number of summing operations.

Abstract: A combustor (36c) for use in a direct-inject internal combustion engine is described. The combustor comprises a substantially conical body (38) having a concave outer surface, an apex (40), which preferably receives fuel during at least a first period of an injection event, and a plurality of fuel directing channels (50a,50b,50c) formed in the concave outer surface. The channels are of different lengths and are arranged to direct fuel to an ejection means which ejects fuel into different regions of a combustion chamber (24a,24b) of the engine at different time periods during the injection event to aid the combustion of fuel. The ejection of fuel into different regions of the combustion chamber at different time periods during an injection event enables the dynamics of the combustion process to be controlled, thereby reducing unwanted emissions such as NOx and particulate matter, and to reduce engine noise.

Abstract: A Raman amplifier for a use in optical transmission systems. The Raman amplifier comprises a Raman active optical fiber and a Raman pump in operative connection with said optical fiber. The Raman pump further comprises a plurality of pairs of pump light sources which emit polarized pump light. Each pair of pump light sources generates a pair of mutually orthogonal pump fields (E1a-c, E2a-c) with respective central frequencies (½ 1a-c , ½ 2a-c ). The Raman pump also comprises a pump field combiner in operative connection with the pump light sources. The pump field combiner is adapted to couple each of the plurality of pairs of pump fields (E1a-c, E2a-c) at mutually orthogonal directions of polarization into said optical fiber. It is proposed that the respective central frequencies (½ 1a-c , ½ 2a-c ) of the pump fields of at least one, preferably each pair of mutually orthogonal pump fields (E1a-c, E2a-c) are different from each other and exhibit a frequency shift (½) below 1.8 THz. This feature avoids polarization dependent gain (PDG) on channels of the optical transmission system which may arise from the fact that some channels of the optical transmission system effectively receive a Raman gain from only one of the polarized pump fields if the frequency shift between said central frequencies (½ 1a-c , ½ 2a-c ) exceeds the proposed specification.
