Abstract: In a method and apparatus for rotating loose laminations in a die, a strip is fed to a rotatable blanking chamber of a blanking station. A punch punches a lamination free from the strip. The rotatable blanking chamber is biased in an upwardly direction. When the punch is not engaging, the rotatable chamber is in an upward position wherein a gap develops between laminations retained at a bottom of the rotatable chamber, and those laminations lying directly below the rotatable chamber. The rotatable chamber can then be rotated without damage to the laminations at the gap because of the gap. Thereafter, a succeeding lamination can be punched after the rotation has occurred. As the punch engages the strip, the rotatable chamber is pushed downwardly so that the gap at the bottom of the rotatable chamber disappears.

Title: Cellular radiotelephone systems and methods that broadcast a common control channel over multiple radio frequencies
Inventor: BACKSTROM OLOF TOMAS
IPC: H04W48/12
Filed: 1999-04-15
Granted: 2005-02-22
Abstract: Cellular radiotelephone systems and methods communicate with cellular radiotelephones via multiple base stations. Radiotelephone traffic channels are used by the base stations for radiotelephone communications with the telephones. A  common control channel is transmitted by the base stations, to control radiotelephone communications with the radiotelephones over the radiotelephone traffic channels. The common control channel is transmitted by a first one of the base stations over a first radio frequency and is transmitted by a second one of the base stations over a second radio frequency that is different from the first radio frequency. By providing a common control channel, excess control channel capacity can be reduced, thereby conserving control channel radio spectrum. Moreover, by transmitting the common control channel using multiple radio frequencies, the radio frequencies can be selected to reduce and preferably eliminate interference.

Granted: 2003-08-05
Abstract: Means for estimating the charged state of a battery, capable of accurately estimating an SOC even though the battery repeats charging/discharging in short cycles. The charging/discharging current Ib measured by current sensing means (10) is integrated, and pseudo-SOC estimating means estimates a pseudo-SOC. Electromotive force estimating means (16) estimates the open voltage Voc from the pseudo-SOC. Voltage change estimating means (18) estimates the voltage change Vr due to the internal resistance from the charging/discharging current Ib. Dynamic voltage change estimating means (20) estimates the voltage change Vdyn due to the change of the charging/discharging current. An adder (22) adds the Voc, Vr, and Vdyn to calculate an estimated voltage Vest of the battery. SOC correction calculating means (26) calculates the correction of the SOC for equalizing the estimated voltage Vest to the measured voltage Vmes measured by voltage sensing means (12), and an adder (28) adds the correction to the pseudo-SOC to estimate the SOC of the battery.
