Patent EP-0725255-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OGUNI KENSAKU
IPC: F25B49/02
Filed: 1996-01-31
Abstract: The invention provides a heat pump air conditioner using air as a heat source which can operate for heating even at the temperature of outdoor air lower than -15 °C. A scroll compressor (1), a four-way valve (2), an indoor heat exchanger (101), a receiver (7), an outdoor refrigerant control valve (4), and an outdoor heat exchanger (3) are connected in sequence by pipes. A bypass flow line for injecting a liquid refrigerant into the scroll compressor is arranged between a receiver (7) and the scroll compressor through a liquid injection refrigerant control valve (6). The scroll compressor is variable in rotational speed and is operated at a high speed under control by a rotational speed controller for thereby achieving a high heating capability. Even when the temperature of outdoor air is lower than -15 °C, particularly at around -20 °C, the heat pump air conditioner can develop a heating capability comparable to that developed when the temperature of outdoor air is 0 °C. The cost required for the heat pump air conditioner to effect heating and cooling is comparable to the cost required for an air conditioner which employs kerosene for heating and a refrigeration cycle for cooling. From trial calculation in terms of primary energy, it has proved that the inventive heat pump air conditioner consumes less energy than the conventional one.

Abstract: An improved electrical ceiling box (10) comprising a top portion (12) bounded by a peripheral side portion (14), with a pair of diametrically opposed ear lugs (26) rigidly secured to the side portion. Each ear lug has a pair of ears (22,24) integrally formed therewith extending inwardly into the interior cavity of the box. A first ear (22) fits within a recess formed in the bottom edge of the box, while a second ear extends through a slot formed in the side portion of the box. The second ear (24) has a mounting hole formed therein adapted for threaded engagement with a self-tapping screw, while the first ear (22) has a receiving hole (40) formed therethrough for supporting the distal end of the corow. In a preferred embodiment, the box has a substantially hexagonal configuration. In an alternative embodiment, the box has a circular configuration and is shallower, thereby eliminating the need for a pair of slots for receiving the first ears. Preferably, the ear lugs are formed from a heavier gauge material than the remainder of the box for improved strength and resistance to breakage from fatigue.

Abstract: A method of automatically identifying sentence boundaries in a document image without performing OCR. The identification process begins by selecting a connected component from the multiplicity of connected components of a text line. Next, it is determined whether the selected connected component might represent a period based upon its shape. If the selected connected component is dot shaped, then it is determined whether the selected connected component might represent a colon. Finally, if the selected connected component is dot shaped and not part of a colon, the selected connected component is labeled as a sentence boundary.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the wheel inclination or "camber" of a vehicle. In a wheel assembly, e.g. in the front axle and suspension assembly of the vehicle, the wheel planes are somewhat inclined in relation to a plane perpendicular to the floor or base, the inclination representing the so called camber angle. According to the invention a simple method is proposed for determining the magnitude of the angle, independet of specific operating sites and sophisticated instruments. In a manner known per se a wheel subject to camber measurement is provided with an axial extension in the form of a pin (10) exactly coaxial with the wheel. The center line (x-x) of said pin will thus incline in relation to the floor by an angle = the camber angle. On the floor, directly in front of the set of wheels, a rod (15) or a like straight member is placed. An instrument (20) provided with two mutually perpendicular levels is placed on the rod. The instrument has a bridge pivotable about an axis (y-y) perpendicular to the center line (H-H) of the bar, said bridge, in a first step, being set with its pivot axis (y-y) truly horizontal and, in a second step, being pivoted so that its own plane becomes truly horizontal. The instrument is moved to the wheel pin (10) and the procedure is repeated. The change of inclination which the bridge is subjected to in step 2 represents the camber angle.

Abstract: Pattern data is generated in accordance with horizontal and vertical synchronizing components of a video signal. The pattern data and the video signal are stored in a memory (37). The video signal is written in an effective image period, while pattern data is written in other periods. Write and read addresses for the memory are generated in accordance with the horizontal and vertical synchronizing components of the video signal. Thus, pattern data is written over the video signal corresponding to the position at which display is required. Whether the output read from the memory is a video signal or pattern data is discriminated by a signal discrimination circuit (33) in accordance with the read address. Pattern data and the video signal are individually signal-processed. In accordance with a result of the discrimination performed by the signal discrimination circuit, the output from a pattern data processor and the output from a video signal processor are switched and displayed by a monitor.
