Abstract: The present invention provides a traffic information collecting device and method. A node in a communication network collects a first traffic information of a first link connected to an own node. And also the node receives second traffic information of second links connected to the other nodes. The second traffic information is transmitted from the other nodes. The node stores the first and second information. In consequence, the node can be informed of the conditions of the traffic of each link in the communication network based on the stored information. As the result, it becomes possible to control the load sharing in correspondence to the conditions of the traffic.

Abstract: A vehicle gear transmission includes a switching means (41), a switch mode judging means
(112), and a shift stage identification means (202). A shift mode of the transmission is
switched between an automatic shift mode and a manual shift mode by the switching means
(41). The switch mode judging means (112) senses when the transmission has been
switched from the automatic shift mode to the manual shift mode by the switching means
(41). The shift stage identification means (202) identifies the selected shift stage in the
automatic shift mode at the instant when the automatic shift mode is switched to the manual
shift mode. Further, the shift stage identification means identifies when the selected shift
stage in the automatic shift mode of the transmission is an overdrive shift stage at the
instant when the automatic shift mode was switched to the manual shift mode. In this case,
a shift-down operating means (203) shifts-down the shift stage of the transmission from the
overdrive shift stage at the time of transition from automatic to manual mode when a
vehicle speed judging means (106) judges that the vehicle speed is higher than a
predetermined vehicle speed.

Abstract: A winding-down side pilot port (5b) of a control valve (5) is of a 2-port
construction comprising a normal winding-down side port (5b1) having a large
pressure receiving area and a free fall side port (5b2) having a small pressure
receiving area, wherein in the free fall operation carried out by setting a
motor (2) to a small capacity, a pilot pressure of a winding-down side remote
control valve (8) is supplied to the free fall side port through a mode switching
valve (22). Thereby, a stroke of the control valve (5) can be suppressed so that a
speed of a motor (2) does not exceed an allowable speed. 
Additionally a load holding hydraulic system is disclosed with a
hydraulic motor (101) and bidirectional pump (104) in closed circuit.

Abstract: In a double chainstitch sewing machine, a movable thread
guide 37 is fixed to the lower end of a needle bar 1. A fixed
thread guide 41 and a thread take-up cam 39 are fixed to a jaw
43a of a sewing machine arm 43. The thread take-up cam 39 has
a cam section to be engaged with needle threads 51a, 51b from
the fixed thread guide 41 to the movable thread guide 37, and
takes up the needle threads oscillating up and down by vertical
motion of the movable thread guide 37. Thread take-up members
such as movable thread guide 37, fixed thread guide 41, and
thread take-up cam 39 are disposed centrally at the lower end
of the needle bar near the needle and in the jaw 43a of the sewing
machine arm 43. As a result, there is no member for thread
take-up moving at the upper side and front side of the sewing
machine arm, and dangerous positions for the operator can be
decreased. Further, the thread pathway length from the
workpiece to the thread tension device is shortened, and the
effects of thread stretch of properties can be decreased.

The structure optimizing result is displayed wherein an actual rigidity value of a structure is calculated on the basis of an inputted initial value of a wall thickness of each component of the structure. An optimum value of the wall thickness of each of the components is calculated on the basis of a sensitivity analysis result in order to make the calculated actual rigidity value close to a required rigidity value of the structure and the calculated result is displayed. In the method and apparatus, the actual rigidity value and a rigidity value of the structure on the basis of the optimum wall thickness value of each of the component are comparatively displayed as a list by an output calculation/display control unit.

Abstract: A cylinder head gasket (1) is formed of a metal plate (3), a
sealing bead (19) formed in the metal plate around a liquid hole,
and a peripheral bead (17) formed in the metal plate to extend
around a periphery of the metal plate. At least a part of the
peripheral bead is set to have a surface pressure lower than that
of the sealing bead when the gasket is tightened by that the height
(h1) of the peripheral bead is lower than that (h2) of the sealing
bead or the width (w1) of the peripheral bead is greater than that
(w2) of the sealing bead. Thus, when the gasket is tightened,
substantially uniform and optimum load share can be obtained on the
peripheral bead and the sealing bead for the fluid hole.

Abstract: A fluid transmitting device includes a side cover
connected to a pump impeller and defining a clutch chamber
between the side cover and an outer surface of a turbine runner,
and a lock-up clutch which includes a clutch piston connected
to the turbine runner. The clutch chamber is divided by the
clutch piston into an inner oil chamber and an outer oil chamber.
In the fluid transmitting device, a dividing means for dividing
the inner oil chamber into a primary inner oil chamber section
and a secondary inner oil chamber section is provided between
the turbine runner and the clutch piston. When a lock-up
control device is operated to urge the clutch piston in a clutch
switch-on direction, the pressures in the primary inner oil
chamber section and the secondary inner oil chamber section are
raised in the named order relative to the outer oil chamber.
Thus, the connection responsiveness of the lock-up clutch can
be enhanced in a simple structure.

Abstract: An apparatus for operating a fluid dispensing gun (22) to dispense a
fluid onto a substrate (28) moving relative to the dispensing gun (22). The apparatus
has a sensor (80) that produces a sensor feedback signal in response to the fluid
dispensing gun (22) changing operating states. A control is connected to the
sensor (80) and provides first signals causing the fluid dispensing gun (22) to change
operating states. The control has a detector (82) producing a compensation
signal representing a difference between the occurrences of one of said first
signals and the sensor feedback signal. The control then adjusts a
subsequent first signal in response to the compensation signal. Thus, the
control automatically compensates the operation of the fluid dispensing gun
in real time for changes in the switching time of the fluid dispensing gun
required to change its operating states.

Abstract: A teleconferencing system that integrates separate real-time and asynchronous networks - the former for real-time audio and video, and the latter for control signals and textual, graphical and other data - in a manner which closely approximates the experience of face-to-face collaboration. The system provides an audio/video (AV) path (13) for carrying AV signal among the workstations, a video mosaic generator (36) for combining images, and an audio summer or mixer (38).

Abstract: A computer algorithm that is able to convert a parent CGM file, which may include a plurality of disparate methods of defining objects or high-level primitives, with low-level primitives to produce a child or normalized CGM file that includes a normalized or standard way of defining these same objects. The computer algorithm iterates over the information stored in the parent CGM file to find associations in stored vectors to determine whether disparate elements, such as segments or arcs, are used to define more complex objects. It then normalizes the data into the more complex objects to produce a normalized CGM file. Therefore, the child CGM file includes standardized high-level primitives and less overall data complexity.
