Abstract: Flashover protection is provided for a locomotive propulsion system including a plurality of d-c traction motors (15, 16) each having a commutator (15A) subject to flashovers. A flashover detector (32) is provided for producing a fault signal in case a flashover occurs. In response to the fault signal, a solid-state controllable electric valve (71) connected between the excitation cur-rent source (17) and the alternator field winding (12f) is changed to a non-conducting state, whereupon the magnitude of excit-ation current in the alternator field winding (12f) is rapidly reduced toward zero and the alternator's output current is correspon-dingly decreased whenever a flashover occurs.

Abstract: An aircraft-launched pyrotechnic decoy flare for luring an incoming missile away from the aircraft's exhaust which comprises a compactly clustered substantially void free array of discrete pieces of a gassy high intensity infra-red emitting pyrotechnic composition contained in a rupturable air-tight container.  On ignition of the flare, combustion spreads rapidly along the interfaces between the discrete pieces to produce gaseous combustion products.  When the pressure within the air-tight container reaches a predetermined level the container ruptures and the discrete pieces burst apart.  The plurality of pieces have a large combined surface area over which combustion occurs and so produce a high intensity emission of infra-red radiation.  In a preferred embodiment the discrete pieces comprise a mixtured fibrous activated carbon cloth impregnated with a metallic salt and coated with a mixture of an oxidising halogenated polymer, an oxidisable metallic material and an organic binder.

Granted: 1995-02-07
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for predicting move compensation for predicting move compensation of an input image based on a move vector of the input image from this input image to a reference image which has been sampled at a first set time, and the method includes a unit for calculating a move vector of the input image based on a move, at a second set time, of a block unit which is a part of the input image and consists of a plurality of pixels, and a unit for calculating a move vector of the reference image based on a move, at the first set time, of a block unit which is a part of the reference image and consists of a plurality of pixels.  Move compensation of the input image is calculated both from the move vector of this input image and from the move vector of the reference image, to thereby realize a method for predicting move compensation with high precision.

Abstract: A data recording/reproducing apparatus uses a single recording medium in which absolute address data have been previously formed. Also, the data recording/reproducing apparatus has a first memory for recording and a second memory for reproducing. Audio data reproduced from the recording medium is stored in the second memory at a first transfer rate, and the audio data stored in the second memory is sequentially read at a second transfer rate lower than the first transfer rate for audio-reproduction. Meanwhile, audio data input from an external source is sequentially stored in the first memory at the second rate, and the audio data stored in the first memory is read at the first transfer rate for recording on the recording medium. The aforementioned reproducing and recording operations are alternately repeated. Thus, the data recording/reproducing apparatus allows an audio data recording operation to be concurrently performed during audio reproduction with the single recording medium.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for using a compressed gas in an aerosol spray system to produce and maintain an effective aerosol spray includes the use of an aerosol spray valve (4) and a dip tube (18) coupled thereto. The tube (18) has an upper airtight portion above an initial liquid level (14). At the bottom of the tube (18) is a liquid entrance hole (24). A vapor tap hole (26) is provided in the tube (18) above the liquid entrance hole (24) and below the initial liquid level (14). The vapor tape hole (26) allows compressed gas (16) to enter the tube (18) and mix with the liquid (20) therein when the liquid level (28) has fallen below the vapor tap hole. Even after the pressure has fallen, the mixing of the compressed gas (16) with the liquid (20) in the dip tube (18) substantially reesta-blishes the deteriorated spray characteristics to produce an effective spray.

Title: Semiconductor device
Inventor: IIDA MAKIO
IPC: H01L29/732
Filed: 1993-12-24
Granted: 2002-02-19
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a semiconductor device which can compatibly achieve the improvement of the withstand voltage and the integration degree. PN junction between a buried collector region 3 and a collector withstand voltage region 4 is subjected to reverse bias, and a depletion layer in the PN junction reaches a side dielectric isolation region 9a which dielectrically isolates the side of the collector withstand voltage region 4. A circumferential semiconductor region 14 which is in adjacency to the collector withstand voltage with the side dielectric isolation region 9a therebetween has an electric potential that is approximate to that at a base region 5 rather than that at the buried collector region 3.        As a result, the depletion layer is subjected to the effect of low electric potential from both the base region 5 and the circumferential semiconductor region 14. This mitigates electrostatic focusing in the vicinity of the corner parts between the sides of the base region 5 and the bottom thereof, restraining the avalanche breakdown there and improving the withstand voltage there.

Abstract: A device for connecting two tool parts having a common axis.  The device includes a fitting pin projecting axially from the first tool part and a connecting sleeve projecting from the second tool part and having a mating bore for receiving the fitting pin.  A tightening mechanism equipped with a tightening bolt movable in a cross bore of the fitting point assures a sufficient planar surface to planar surface tightening between the two tool parts.  Aside from the tightening in direction of the tightening bolt, a clamping of the fitting pin into the mating bore of the connecting sleeve is achieved through suitable measures, the clamping extending transversely with respect to the tightening-bolt direction and resulting in an automatic centering of the tool parts with respect to their common axis and in a reinforcement of the connection transversely with respect to the tightening-bolt axis.
