Patent EP-0500231-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STRINGFELLOW CHRISTOPHER
IPC: F02M41/14
Filed: 1992-02-05
Abstract: A fuel pumping apparatus of the rotary distributor type has a fluid pressure operable valve (43) which can be opened to terminate delivery of fuel to an associated engine. The operation of the valve is controlled by an axially movable shuttle (34) contained in a cylinder. The shuttle is biased toward one end of the cylinder and is displaced away from the one end of the cylinder by fuel supplied by an auxiliary plunger (30). The shuttle is angularly movable by an actuating mechanism (42A) to vary the extent of movement before operation of the valve (43). The shuttle (34) is biased to the one end of the cylinder by a shuttle return piston (50) in order to reduce the frictional loads on the actuating mechanism (42A). The cylinder containing the return piston is connected to an accumulator chamber (52).

Abstract: The first form of the present invention provides an electrically conductive rubber roller for electrophotography which produces little change in electric resistance with changes in environment, concerning charging and image transferring processes in copying machines and laser beam printers. 
     It is characterized by comprising a porous body of crosslinked silicone composition, wherein at least a silica type filler, carbon black and a foaming agent are contained in siloxane polymer and in that the electric resistance is 10³ - 108. 
     The second form of the invention provides a silicone rubber roller for electrophotography in which trace amounts of low polymerization degree siloxanes and non-functional silicone oils have been substantially completely removed, so that there is no danger of contaminating the photoreceptor not only immediately after the use of the roller but also for a long time thereafter, and a method of producing the same. 
     A molding material containing a silicone rubber type compound in which the sum of the concentrations of low polymerization degree siloxanes and non-functional silicone oils is not more than 5000 ppm, is crosslinked and molded in roller form, and after molding it is vacuum-heated.

The maintenance diagnostic chip includes logic to halt either of the microprocessors if an error is detected, and read out the state of the microprocessors and a secondary cache attached to the microprocessors, before the state of the microprocessors at the time of the fault changes to a different state which might hide evidence of the cause of the fault.

Abstract: A high-speed information service system is provided which uses a unique identifier received during call setup to retrieve automatically a personalized profile for an information service subscriber. The identifier uniquely identifies the subscriber, thereby allowing the information retrieval process to begin immediately after the call is setup. The system utilizes Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDN) signaling and temporary, "out-of-band" signaling to improve information retrieval capability. ISDN signaling permits electronic addressing of information requested by the subscriber, thereby eliminating the delays which accompany DTMF signal processing. Communications between an information service provider and an individual information source are conducted using out-of-band signaling. That is, call setup and information request are processed using a channel other than the channel which carries data between the information service provider, the information source and the subscriber.

Abstract: A sorting method is employed to draw data for polygons in a frame memory provided in a video game machine. The order in which the polygon data are to be drawn in the frame buffer memory is determined. For this, the polygon data are sorted. Data, for polygons, that include values on the first three-dimensional coordinates are divided into groups by employing distances between two points; from a predetermined point on the first three-dimensional coordinates to a point on the first three-dimensional coordinates in consonance with the coordinates of individual polygons. Then, the order in which polygons are drawn in the frame buffer memory by employing the data for the polygons that belong to the individual groups is determined to be the order beginning with a group that has the largest or smallest distance between the two points. Through the above described procedures, the high speed sorting of the data for polygons is possible. At the same time, a memory area for the storage of data for polygons can be reduced.

Abstract: Provided is a method and a system for computer network monitoring, implemented in a network in which processes communicate using message queuing. Each node of the network has a network management program installed thereon which includes two independent components: a Point Of Control (POC) program for initiating network tests by injecting a test message into the network and for receiving responses from all the nodes of the network; and a Network Test Program (NTP) for sending a reply message to the single POC for a particular test when the NTP receives test messages within that test, and for propagating the test by forwarding a message to all of the current node's adjacent nodes. Test results are analysed at the POC for display to the network administrator. 
     Injected test messages propagate throughout the network in a self-exploring manner, exploiting the parallelism of the network. The individual nodes are not required to know the network topology other than to know their nearest neighbour nodes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for error recovery in various computer data storage devices that are associated with a host computer operating system includes an error recovery module that is coupled to each device driver in the host operating system. When one of the devices reports an error in the form of sense bytes to its associated device driver, the device driver sends the sense bytes and device type identification to the error recovery module. In turn, the error recovery module generates an action token based upon the sense bytes and device type, and then correlates the action token with error recovery actions. The device driver then executes the error recovery actions. Thus, a common error recovery module can be used in conjunction with a large variety of data storage devices.
