Patent EP-0850815-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ABE YONICHI
IPC: B60T13/52
Filed: 1997-12-23
Abstract: When a vacuum booster (1) fails, an pressure
amplifying mechanism (36 to 39, 43, 44) increases a wheel
brake pressure. After that, even when it is detected that
the vehicle is brought into a stopped state, the state in
which an increased brake fluid pressure is applied to wheel
cylinders (21 to 24) is held. If a condition for terminating
control to maintain a stationary state of the vehicle is
satisfied, that is, if a predetermined time period has
elapsed since when the vehicle stops, the operation of the
pressure amplifying mechanism (36 to 39, 43, 44) is stopped
to reduce the wheel cylinder pressure.

Abstract: A conveying and feeding apparatus for conveying and
constantly feeding a film cartridge one by one so as to feed
the next process where a plurality of cartridges are
conveyed continuously to a cartridge housing unit or a
printing machine. A conveying portion comprises a conveyer
belt and a guide board, and near its downstream end, a
cartridge stopper mechanism is provided. This stopper
mechanism comprises a first stopper member and a second
stopper member. When the first stopper member stops a
forefront cartridge T, the second stopper member is in a
release position. Further, when the first stopper member is
in a release position, the second stopper member is in a
closed position so that the cartridge T can be constantly
sent one by one.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a tube coupling (10) having a throughway (11) open at one end (18) to receive a tube end (17), an annular groove encircling (18) the throughway at a location spaced from said open end and an annular flexible sealing washer (24) mounted in the groove and having an inner peripheral portion (28) which projects through the open mouth of the groove to engage an outer surface of a tube (16) which is a close fit in the throughway. The groove has one side (20) nearest the open end of the throughway which lies in a plane generally transverse to the throughway to limit flexing of the inner part of the sealing washer towards the open end of the throughway and an opposite side (21) of which is relieved (23) at the mouth (22) of the groove to allow the inner part of the sealing washer to take up a curvature in being deformed by forcing a tube through the washer so that the resulting stretching of the inner part (28) of the washer by the tube provides a seal between the washer and tube and fluid pressure on the side of the sealing washer facing into the coupling body enhances the seal between the washer and tube.

Abstract: The device comprises an object (OB) which is intended to be thrown from one player to another, or slid along the ground between two players. It comprises a flat disc-shape forming a box, the surfaces of which may be concave in order to offer the minimum of friction as it slides over the ground. The box is made in two parts accommodating an electronic circuit within the internal space. This carries light-emitting diodes (LED 1-3) on its edges, and a pushbutton in the middle. The circuit includes a shock detector, arranged so that if the object receives a shock, e.g. by falling on the ground, this triggers the operation of the LEDs and possibly also a piezoelectric buzzer mounted within the casing. These may be reset by operation of the pushbutton. A logic circuit is provided to control operation of the LEDs in response to the activation of the shock detector.

Abstract: The in-line roller skate has a frame (1) made from two parallel vertical flanges with four or more rollers (4-7) between them. The axles of the rollers lie perpendicular to the flanges. The axles of the two middle rollers (5,6) are adjustable in vertical slots (9,11) in the flanges by two auxiliary plates (12) with oblique slots. The two auxiliary plates can be moved horizontally relative to the flanges and have lower edges (12a,13a) which curve under the edges of the flanges. After adjustment, they are locked in place by fixings (19). The oblique slots in the additional plates are basically kidney-shaped, and have two rounded ends set at different levels. In addition the two plates are joined rigidly together by a cross-piece passing under the skate.

Abstract: A method of continuously forming, filling and sealing of packages with a
continuous web (14) of polyethylene film material includes the steps of folding the
web (14) to provide confronting sides (20) joined along a bottom edge (22) and
sealing by training the web (14) onto a vertical seal former (34) having plurality of
vertical sealers (40) and progressively forming each vertical seal (46) as the web
(14) is being continuously moved with the vertical sealer (40) while at the same
applying a low temperature sealing action to allow the area of the film being sealed
to be progressively melted. This process forms a series of horizontally disposed
pouches (48) severed by the vertical seals (46) extending transversely of the web
(14) leaving sealed side edges (50) of each pouch (48) partially severed from one
another with upper portions (52) of each pouch (48) also remaining connected with
adjoining pouches (48) and having opposed sidewalls (54) of each pouch (48)
unsealed along a top edge (56) preparatory to filling. A packaging apparatus 10 is

IPC: H02K29/08
Filed: 1997-03-03
Abstract: According to the invention the electronic control has a power section (7) for a single-phase synchronous motor (2) with a permanent magnet rotor, in which there are means (1) for detecting the position of the permanent magnet rotor and means (3, 4, 5, 6, 7) for the control of at least one driving coil depending on the position of the permanent rotor. Thus a single-phase synchronous motor can be reliably started in a given direction of rotation without a commutator and thus powers of up to about 5 kW can be developed with high efficiency. This also facilitates self-synchronisation because the control regulates the windings in accordance with the detected position of the rotor, while it is possible to adapt the motor to an adjustable rated power on the user's side and the current operating conditions via the pulse height and/or width. The means for detecting the rotor position may be optical, magnetic and/or inductive, e.g. a Hall effect sensor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and devices for processing data frames representative of audio information in digitized and compressed form. The method comprises the steps of classifying succesive data frames into frames containing speech sounds and non-speech sounds, altering parameters of the data frames identified as containing non-speech sounds for eliminating or at least substantially reducing artifacts that distort the acoustic background noise. In addition, the data frame identified as containing non-speech sounds are low-pass filtered. Finally, a signal level compensation is effected to avoid undesired fluctuations in the signal level.
