Patent EP-1308900-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NISHI HIDEFUMI
IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 2002-04-17
Abstract: There are provided a drawing device and an
information processing apparatus which are capable of
reading out texture data from a memory at a high speed. A
storage circuit (1b) stores respective information items
of each of texture pixels constituting the texture data
and at least one texture pixel in a vicinity of the each
of the texture pixels, in a continuously-accessible region
thereof. An address calculation circuit (1a) calculates,
based on texture coordinates corresponding to each pixel
of the polygons, an address where a corresponding set of
the information items are stored. A readout circuit (1c)
reads out the corresponding set of the information items
from the address calculated by the address calculation
circuit. A synthesis circuit (1d) synthesizes the
corresponding set of the information items read out by the
readout circuit. A drawing circuit (1e) draws, based on
texture pixel information synthesized by the synthesis
circuit, a corresponding pixel of the polygons.

Abstract: A chain-belt for a CVT having a plurality of links, each link comprising a plurality
of parallel tensile link plates (13,14), each link plate having connection apertures located
substantially towards the ends thereof, each link being connected to an adjacent link by a
pin (12) having two ends passing through overlapping connection apertures in adjacent link
plates. Wear pads (8) are positioned on said outer link plates (13). A bushing (10), at least as long as the
thickness of the tensile link plates (13,14), coaxially surrounds the chain's pins (12), passing through
oversized holes in the link plates (13,14). Compressive force is transmitted between the wear pads (8)
by the bushing (10), so that the compressive force exerted by the sheaves does not deform the
pin or squeeze the link plates together. The wear pads (8) are centered on the centerline of the
chain, and taper to match the taper of the pulley sheaves.
The wear pads (8) are also designed
so the centerline of the wear pads intersects the center axis of the pulley when the chain is
in use.

Abstract: A backplane apparatus (710) for an electronic device enclosure (750)
includes a common bus (730) comprising a plurality of signal lines, each
signal line having a current limiting element, RA (742). Isolation circuitry
(740) is provided for electrically coupling each of the plurality of signal
lines of the common bus to a corresponding plurality of signal lines of an
electronic device (760) to enable signal communication between the
common bus and the electronic device through the isolation circuitry
(740). In one embodiment, the backplane apparatus further comprises
connectors (712, 714)) to enable removably attaching the electronic devices
such as disk drives. In one embodiment, the isolation circuitry coupling
each signal line of the common bus to the connector comprises an inline
resistor, RD (740). The isolation circuitry associated with some of the
signal lines (400) may include pull up resistors (426). The values of RA
and RD are selected to ensure that the common bus meets pre-determined
current and voltage requirements so that the common bus can change
states even if one or more of the devices fail by shorting to ground.

Abstract: A fire and explosion suppression system comprises a source (5) of high pressure water which is fed to a misting nozzle (13) or other water mist generating means at one input of a mixing unit (6), and a source (14) of high pressure inert gas, such as nitrogen, which is fed along a pipe (20) to another input of the mixing unit (6). Inside the mixing unit (6), water mist, in the form of an atomised mist of very small droplet size is mixed with the pressurised gas and exits the mixing unit (6) at high pressure and high velocity along a pipe (22) and is thence discharged through spreaders (26, 28). Separation of the mist production from the actual discharge of the mist, and the entraining and transporting of the mist between these two stages at high pressure and high velocity, produces an output mist of very small droplet size which is carried by the entraining and transporting high pressure gas into the area to be protected, enabling a total flooding capability.

Abstract: The invention relates to an engine management system wherein physically based models (16-21) are used to determine the composition and mass of the fresh air/ exhaust gas mixture suctioned by an internal combustion engine (1). Said models respectively simulate the behavior of the internal combustion engine or corresponding engine system in relation to specific state variables. The individual physically based models (16-21) are closely coupled to each other in a partial manner and are used, for instance, to simulate the filling of the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine(1) with the suctioned fresh air/waste gas mixture in order to simulate the flow of the mass of re-circulating exhaust gas, in order to simulate the behavior of the exhaust gas manifold of the internal combustion engine (1) upstream and downstream from a turbine (2), in order to simulate the storage behavior of the intake manifold of the internal combustion engine, and to simulate the behavior of the intake pipe or inlet manifold whereby the fresh air/exhaust gas mixture is fed to the combustion engine (1) from a corresponding mixing point (10) where the suctioned fresh air is mixed with the exhaust gas re-circulated via the exhaust gas re-circulation line. As a result, a plurality of additional state variables can be determined without additional sensors.

Abstract: A peer-to-peer (P2P) probing/network quality of service (QoS) analysis system utilizes a
UDP-based probing tool for determining latency, bandwidth, and packet loss ratio
between peers in a network. The probing tool enables network QoS probing between
peers that connect through a network address translator. The list of peers to probe is
provided by a connection server based on prior probe results and an estimate of the
network condition. The list includes those peers which are predicted to have the best QoS
with the requesting peer. Once the list is obtained, the requesting peer probes the actual
QoS to each peer on the list, and returns these results to the connection server. P2P
probing in parallel using a modified packet-pair scheme is utilized. If anomalous results
are obtained, a hop-by-hop probing scheme is utilized to determine the QoS of each link.
In such a scheme, differential destination measurement is utilized.

Abstract: An optical pickup has a light source for generating a laser
light, an objective lens for condensing the laser light to
form a light spot so as to irradiate an optical disk formed
of a substrate and having a pair of major surfaces spaced
from each other by a thickness of the substrate and a
recording face interposed between the major surfaces, and an
actuator for moving the objective lens in a direction of the
thickness of the optical disk within a total movable range so
as to focus the light spot on either one of the recording
face and the major surface. The total movable range of the
objective lens is set to be equal to or more than a sum of an
allowance range and an additional range. The allowance range
is set to allow the objective lens to keep a constant
distance between the objective lens and the recording face
even when a level of the optical disk varies in the direction
of the thickness. The additional range is set by dividing a
gap between the major surface and the recording face of the
optical disk by an absolute refraction index of the substrate
of the optical disk.

Abstract: An assembly untwists and opens a length of textile hose as it is withdrawn from a container for surrender to a further process. The assembly has a sensor detecting the twist direction of the passing hose and a reversible motor drive linked to the hose container. The twist condition detector especially has a tilting turntable. The turntable is mounted essentially in a horizontal plane and has an aperture for the hose.  A fixed or detachable elastic disc is fitted on or in the turntable and has moving elastic tongue detectors directed towards the turntable center. The hose is in contact with the surrounding inward-directed tongues as it passes through the center hole. The turntable has a cover plate with a tip/-weighted radial extension. A sensor is located in the cover plate lateral swivel zone. The sensor detects the turntable motion caused by hose twist and emits a commensurate signal to the control system. In normal operation the turntable hangs vertically downwards, the tip weight acts as a self-centering pendulum to return the turntable to a zero or the initial position.  An Independent claim is included for a twist presentation sensor array using proximity switches, opto-electronic reflex sensors, or light detector beams.
