Patent EP-1058137-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SASAKI HIDEKI
IPC: G02B6/28
Filed: 2000-05-30
Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a polarization-maintaining optical fiber coupler by
heating lengthwise portions of two polarization-maintaining optical fibers extending side by
side, and elongating the heated portions to thereby form a fused-elongated section,
elongation is terminated when the cyclic changes in a coupling ratio of two polarized waves
according to an elongation length at a wavelength in use are both within first two cycles, so
that the coupling ratio of one of the polarized waves is equal to or less than 10% and the
coupling ratio of the other one of the polarized waves is equal to or greater than 90%. This
method can provide a polarization-maintaining optical fiber coupler whose coupling ratio
has a large dependency on polarization with a short elongation length.

Abstract: A composite-type electromagnet for a radial magnetic
bearing has four composite-type electromagnet parts,
each have four electromagnet cores of a magnetic material
each having two protruding poles, eight control coils,
respectively wound around the protruding poles, and four
biasing permanent magnets. The electromagnet core and the
biasing permanent magnet has a junction, in which is
disposed a viscous material, adhesive material magnetic
fluid or the like such as grease prepared based on a
material having high permeability and high saturation
magnetic flux density. The invention minimizes the leak of
magnetic flux that occurs in the junction in a composite-type
electromagnet formed by an electromagnet having a
controlling coil wound around an electromagnet of a
magnetic material and a biasing permanent magnet having a
junction to the electromagnet core.

Abstract: A communication protocol for message delivery in a plurality of
nodes connected in a daisy chain arrangement. In an initialization
sequence, the nodes are assigned consecutive node numbers such that
each node is aware of the maximum number of nodes connected in the
daisy chain arrangement. Numbering information comprising node
numbers is provided to each node. When the daisy chain arrangement is
reconfigured because of addition, deletion, removal of one or more
nodes, the nodes are re-numbered and a new maximum number is
determined. Updated numbering information is broadcast to each node
in the reconfigured daisy chain arrangement. Point-to-point
communication between two nodes is effectuated by providing the
intended receiver's node number in the message. An acknowledgment
message between the receiver and sender is used for confirming message
receipt. In broadcast communication mode, the sender monitors
acknowledgments or replies from the recipients and if the number of
reply messages does not correspond to the current maximum node
number, a re-numbering process is effectuated. Thereafter, the sender rebroadcasts
the message to insure confirmed delivery to each node in the
daisy chain arrangement.

Abstract: A generator apparatus such as in a cogeneration system
has a controlling power supply energized with its generator
output with giving no adverse effect on the waveform of its
output. An inverter (13) is provided for converting an
alternating current output of the engine generator (10) into
a direct current and returning back by the action of its
inverter circuit (133) to an alternating current of a
predetermined frequency which is then connected to a power
supply system (14). While the engine (11) remains not
actuated, a power received from a joint between the inverter
(13) and the power supply system (14) is rectified by a
rectifier (141) and transferred to the controlling power
supply (140). When the engine (11) is started, the power
at the input of the inverter circuit (133) is transmitted
to the controlling power supply (140). As the voltage at
the input of the inverter circuit (133) is set higher than
that at the power supply system side, the energization of
the controlling power supply (140) with the power at the
input of the inverter circuit (133) can automatically be
selected after the start-up of the engine (11).
