Patent EP-1190480-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NEBRIGIC DRAGAN DANILO
IPC: H01M6/50
Filed: 2000-06-23
Abstract: A DC/DC power converter is efficiently switched to produce a predetermined output voltage across a load capacitor as required by a load device. In particular, a capacitive and/or inductive element is switched between a charge and discharge state as required to maintain the output voltage. For a capacitive-only power converter, or charge pump, comparison of the output voltage to a reference voltage efficiently switches a fly capacitor between charging and discharging states. Also, power converter based on switching of an inductive element with a synchronous rectifier and switch to charge the load capacitor is made more efficient by a hysteretic comparison of the output voltage to predetermined thresholds for stopping the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) modulation when the predetermined output voltage is achieved. The power converters illustrated are suitable for integrated circuit implementation and may be combined with other elements of a battery to produce a more efficient battery, achieving longer service life and output voltage stability.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un projecteur électronique possédant un système de projection comprenant un modulateur spatial de lumière (SLM) servant à répercuter les informations de l'image sur le faisceau lumineux projeté. Le faisceau lumineux quittant ledit modulateur est préalablement polarisé selon une orientation définie, la lumière projetée étant polarisée selon la même orientation de manière à bloquer efficacement toute la lumière qui a été diffusée au sein du projecteur et qui a été dépolarisée. Le modulateur peut être un miroir numérique (DMD) ou un dispositif à cristaux liquides (LCD). Les surfaces réfléchissantes dans le projecteur peuvent être recouvertes ou revêtues d'un matériau polarisant la lumière réfléchie avec une orientation orthogonale par rapport à l'orientation définie.

Abstract: The total compressor running time after defrost tn is calculated by adding the value obtained by multiplying the difference between the optimum defrost time tdefopt determined by the experiments and the actual defrost time tdef(n) with a constant value K determined by the manufacturer to the total compressor running time before defrost tn-1 without checking the line voltage first. The total compressor running time tyn adaptive to the line voltage is calculated by multiplying the difference between the square of the average line voltage value found by monitoring the line voltage during the defrost time by the line voltage measuring unit (8), and the average line voltage value measured during the previous defrost cycle, by a constant L value determined by the manufacturer and by adding this value to the above mentionned total compressor running period after defrost tn, that is calculated without regarding the line voltage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safeguarding plant for level crossings. The individual components of a level crossing (BU), namely the setting elements (S1 to S4, L1.1 to L2.2, U1.1 to U2.2) and the sensor systems (SE1.1 to SAA2.2) are interlinked via transmitter and/or receiver devices for radiotelephony. The sensor messages are processed in controllers that are allocated to the setting elements and are converted to operating commands for the setting elements. The setting elements and the sensor systems and their corresponding controllers and transmitter and/or receiver devices for radiotelephony are preferably supplied with energy by a decentral system of solar generators. Only if supply leads for operating the setting elements and optionally the sensor systems are already available, these parts can also be centrally supplied with energy. Decentral energy supply systems can also be centrally supplied with energy. The setting elements are invariably controlled decentrally via radiotelephony. The individual setting elements can be optionally retrofitted with decentral energy supply devices without changing the control design of the safeguarding plant for the level crossing.

Abstract: A cup is disclosed which includes: a sealingly engage-able lid having a drinking spout located thereon. a tubular passage formed between inner surface of the lid and/or spout and a detachable member located on the lid, the passage having one end in communication with the inside of the cup and the other end in communication with the outside of the spout and being of such a diameter such that air cannot readily bubble past liquid inside it. When such a cup is inverted, the head of liquid inside lowers the pressure of the air above the liquid, and liquid therefore starts to move downwardly through the passage. This continues until the reduction in air; pressure above the liquid jest balances the pressure of the liquid head, when further movement of liquid ceases, (The fact that air cannot bubble past the liquid in the passage ensures that the air pressure is nut restored while the cup is inverted or reclined). Thus the capacity of the passage should be great enough to contain this amount of liquid without reaching the exit and therefore spilling.

Abstract: In a method for performing a handover with the view of changing a telecommunications channel utilized by a connection between a mobile station and a mobile services switching center in a mobile communications system, to make sure that the handover causes as little interference as possible to the ongoing connection, the allocation of a new radio channel to the connection involves checking whether a predetermined trigger condition is met, which happens if either the speech coding method or the data transfer rate changes, or if they both change at the same time, in connection with the handover, and directing the switching function of the mobile services switching center to perform the handover if the checks show that the handover is a BSC-internal handover where the trigger condition is met.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, l'adaptabilité et la disponibilité de fonctions vraiment interactives sont deux problèmes difficiles non encore résolus de manière satisfaisante dans un système de vidéo sur demande à grande échelle. Il est facile de fournir des fonctions complètement interactives en utilisant des flux monodestination mais l'adaptabilité de ces systèmes est limitée ce qui affecte leur coût de fourniture de service. Par contre, il est possible d'augmenter l'adaptabilité des systèmes par lots, sur la base de flux multidestinations, mais il reste difficile de mettre en oeuvre des fonctions interactives dans ces systèmes. L'invention concerne donc un système de distribution de médias possédant une nouvelle architecture permettant de servir des millions d'utilisateurs dans une zone métropolitaine. Il est caractérisé par un flux hybride mono-multidestinations permettant l'adaptabilité et une interactivité complète obtenues au moyen de serveurs interactifs distribués, avec mise en antémémoire des flux de médias multidestinations produits par les serveurs de médias. Les serveurs interactifs permettent aussi de mettre en oeuvre un acheminement à tolérance de panne et une reprise sur incident.
