Patent EP-1321321-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CARLSTEDT ROBERT
IPC: F16F9/53
Filed: 2002-12-16
Abstract: A clutch device for use with a vehicle suspension system to vary the stiffness of a stabilizer
bar. A plurality of dampers connected to the clutch body alternate with a plurality of
dampers connected to the stabilizer bar. The dampers are coated with a friction material
and surrounded by a fluid. When a load is applied on the walls of clutch body, the friction
material comes into contact, dampening the rotation action of the stabilizer bar. A sensor
senses the parameters of the ride and generates a signal based on these parameters. The
signal activates a power source controller which applies the load to the walls.

Abstract: A multi-shelf communication system for a communication switch having shelves is
provided. There is a master generating commands and receiving status signals, slaves
associated with the master, a communication controller per slave, a downstream
communication link providing a multiplexed signal of communications from each
controller and providing a demultiplexed signal split from the multiplexed signal to each
slave, an upstream communication link from each slave to its controller, and a timing
arrangement controlling transmission times for the downstream communication link.
Each slave can be located on one the shelves and receives commands, executes local
commands responsive to the commands and generates status signals for the master.
Each controller receives commands, transmits commands to its slave and receives
status signals and provides information relating to the status signals to the master
controller. Local commands replace other commands directed by the master to the
slave. Each slave communicates independently with the master.

Filed: 2002-10-24
Abstract: A preprocessing unit converts an analog signal to a processed signal at a sample rate controlled by a first clock signal. A digital phase locked loop locks on the processed signal and outputs a phase signal using the first clock signal. A bit decision unit outputs a digital signal and a third clock signal using the phase signal, the first clock signal and an output signal from the preprocessing unit. A clock divider produces the first clock signal from the second clock signal. A quantizer produces the output signal by quantizing the analog signal amplitude. A phase detector determines a phase difference between the output signal and the second clock signal to feed an amplitude that indicates a phase difference. A sample and hold unit samples the output signal using the second clock signal and holds samples of the output signal for a clock period of first clock signal.
