Abstract: A control valve (49) in a variable displacement
compressor is disclosed. The compressor includes a supply
passage (48) for connecting a discharge chamber (38) with a
crank chamber (15). The control valve (49) is located in
the supply passage (48) to control the pressure in the crank
chamber (15). The control valve (49) has a valve hole (66)
and a valve chamber (63) located in the supply passage (48).
A valve body (64) is located in the valve chamber (63) to
adjust the opening size of the valve hole (66). A solenoid
(62) has a plunger (78) and a plunger chamber (77) for
accommodating the plunger (78). A rod (81) is located
between the plunger (78) and the valve body (64) to transmit
the movement of the plunger (78) to the valve body (64).
When the solenoid (62) is de-excited, the bottom end face of
the plunger (78) abuts against the inner bottom wall (75a)
of the plunger chamber (77). A plurality of grooves (87)
are provided on the bottom end face of the plunger (78) and
extend radially. The grooves (87) define gas flow passages
between the bottom end face of the plunger (78) and the
inner bottom wall (75a) of the plunger chamber (77) to
prevent the bottom end face from adhering to the inner
bottom wall (75a). This prevents the plunger (78) from
sticking, and thus improves the response of the control
valve (49).

Abstract: In a stereo system having sum and difference signals that are processed for stereo image enhancement, apparent directivity of the stereo sound is increased by the use of servo systems (40,44) for the left and right processed difference signals (L - R) p , (R - L) p . Each of the left and right servos (40,44) responds to the respective left or right stereo input signal (L in , R in ) and amplifies increases in the respective left or right processed difference signals. The amount of amplification is controlled by feeding back the amplified or directivity enhanced difference signal (L - R) pe , (R - L) pe , first comparing it with the processed difference signal (L -R) p , (R - L) p  before directivity enhancement, and then combining it with the input signal (L in , R in ) in a preselected ratio so as to control the amount of amplification of the processed difference signal that is provided for directivity enhancement.

Abstract: In a pulse width modulation (PWM) control
circuit, a free run counter counts a clock signal
to count a time value, and generates an overflow
signal when the counted time value is equal to a
predetermined value. A transfer control circuit
allows a set time value to be transferred from a
master compare register to a slave compare
register and inhibits the transfer of the set
time value in response to the overflow signal. A
comparing circuit compares the counted time value
in the free run counter and the set time value
transferred in to the slave compare register and
generates a coincident signal when the counted
time value is coincident with the set time value.
An output circuit generates a PWM signal in
response to the overflow signal and the
coincident signal.

Abstract: A controller for a continuously variable transmission of a vehicle sets a command
speed ratio so that a real speed ratio approaches a target speed ratio which is set
according to running conditions including throttle opening. When an upshift is
performed, this controller determines, from the variation of throttle opening, whether
the upshift is due to a decrease in throttle opening or whether it is another type of
upshift. When it is determined that the upshift is due to throttle opening decrease,
a response rate of the command speed ratio relative to the target speed ratio
immediately after start of speed change is temporarily increased, and subsequently
slowly decreased.

Abstract: An arrangement for reading photo-stimulable storage luminescent substances comprises an excitation glass fiber into which light which excites the storage luminescent substance can be fed by means of a light source. Light emitted by the excited storage luminescent substance can be fed into a receiving glass fiber, an end of the excitation glass fiber which is positioned close to the storage luminescent substance being arranged next to an end of the receiving glass fiber which can be positioned close to the storage luminescent substance. The excitation glass fiber (12) has a first numerical aperture and the receiving glass fiber has a second numerical aperture which is large compared with the first numerical aperture, as a result of which the light fed out from the excitation glass fiber is directed straight onto the storage luminescent substance without an optical arrangement and the stimulated light can be captured by the receiving glass fiber without an optical arrangement. A glass fiber drum scanner uses the arrangement for reading photo-stimulable storage luminescent substances to achieve a two-dimensional readout of the storage luminescent substance by means of an advancing device which moves the one ends of the excitation glass fiber and the receiving glass fiber in one direction and by means of a rotary drum to which the storage luminescent substance is attached.

Abstract: Method for characterizing, classifying and differentiating tissues and cell types, for predicting the behavior of tissues and groups of cells, and for identifying genes with changed expression. The method involves obtaining genomic DNA from a tissue sample, the genomic DNA subsequently being subjected to shearing, cleaved by means of a restriction endonuclease or not treated by either one of these methods. The base cytosine, but not 5-methylcytosine, from the thus-obtained genomic DNA is then converted into uracil by treatment with a bisulfite solution. Fractions of the thus-treated genomic DNA are then amplified using either very short or degenerated oligonucleotides or oligonuclcotides which are complementary to adaptor oligonucleotides that have been ligated to the ends of the cleaved DNA. The quantity of the remaining cytosines on the guanine-rich DNA strand and/or the quantity of guanines on the cytosine-rich DNA strand from the amplified fractions are then detected by hybridization or polymerase reaction, which quantities are such that the data generated thereby and automatically applied to a processing algorithm allow the drawing of conclusions concerning the phenotype of the sample material.
