Abstract: A two-way communication device includes a magnetoelastic rod located between an inertial back mass and a front panel of low mass. A coil is located in the vicinity of the rod, and the rod and coil together define an audio-electric transducer. An electronic processing circuit ensures that an audio-electric signal input to the device is applied to the coil to produce a sound wave from the low mass front panel and that when a sound wave impinges on the low mass front panel an audio-electric signal is produced and output from the device.

Abstract: An electronic throttle controller (200) includes a feedforward control (222), a PID (224), a sliding mode control (226) and an adder (230). The PID (224) is capable of generating a first feedback term that compensates for an error signal. The sliding mode control (226) is capable of generating a second feedback term that incorporates a solution to a Lyapunov equation applied to the error signal with sliding gain being updated by an estimation of unknown dynamics. The adder (230) adds the first feedback term, the second feedback term and the feedforward control (222) so as to generate a control signal (232).

Abstract: The self-anchoring expansion gap assembly for refractory lined vessels such as a gasifier includes a substantially annular insulating blanket structure formed of compressible refractory material. A coil of rope formed of relatively incompressible refractory material is positioned proximate an outer periphery of the insulating blanket structure. The expansion gap assembly is placed in an expansion gap of a gasifier, for example, such that the coil of rope aligns with an annular channel formed in the refractory lining of the gasifier at the expansion gap. Compression of the expansion gap assembly locks the coil of rope in the annular channel of the expansion gap thereby resisting vacuum pullout. The coil of rope can be formed as a single coil or a plurality of substantially concentric coils preferably from a single length of refractory rope.

Abstract: A wireless or wired communication system and method is provided including a transmitter and a receiver. A RF communication system in accordance with the present invention includes an apparatus and gain control method between RF receiver and baseband modem in case of a plurality of gain stages inside a receiver. The gain of each stage can be controlled by an integrated gain controller. The gain controller monitors the signal level of each gain stage to place its gain to optimal value. The gain control apparatus and method can be implemented in a digital AGC system. The gain controller accepts a signal implementing gain control and thus there is no stability issue. When distributed gain stages are present inside a related art receiver and separate gain control loops are used, stability issues can arise. In a preferred embodiment of an apparatus and method, the baseband modem decides the amount of gain control and adjusts the gain of certain gain stages by the proper amount.

Abstract: The invention relates to an airbag which is equipped with a variable ventilation area. The ventilation area is formed by an element which is fixed to the area of the inflatable bag that is disposed next to a gas discharge outlet, such that the surface area of the gas outlet can vary during impact in a directly proportional manner in relation to the pressure inside the bag. The above-mentioned ventilation area-forming element consists of one or more parts which are sufficiently flexible in order to present different gas discharge surface areas, and the element may or may not comprise a membrane for sealing said gas discharge outlet. The aforementioned ventilation area makes it possible for the pressure inside the airbag to adapt to the passenger, the impact or both.

Abstract: A single wire serial interface for power ICs and other devices is provided. To use the interface, a device is configured to include an EN/SET input pin. A counter within the device counts clock pulses sent to the EN/SET input pin. The output of the counter is passed to a ROM or other decoder circuit. The ROM selects an operational state for the device that corresponds to the value of the counter. In this way, control states may be selected for the device by sending corresponding clock pulses to the EN/SET pin. Holding the EN/SET pin high causes the device to maintain its operational state. Holding the EN/SET pin low for a predetermined timeout period resets the counter and causes the device to adopt a predetermined configuration (such as off) until new clock pulses are received at the EN/SET pin.
