Abstract: A programming unit (12) determines operating phases for microwave cooking, browning and any other processes available, from the user's settings of food-type (8) and cooking duration (9) controls. After pressing the start-button (11), the user receives on-going information, including program completion, from a display unit (10). If checks through the open oven door, or through its transparent panel, show further cooking is needed, the user, selecting a new duration, re-starts the cooker. During a delay, e.g. 4 minutes, imposed in case of any such follow-on instructions, the programmer checks whether the oven door has been opened. If not, the follow-on program reinstates the original program's final conditions, held in memory. Otherwise, a suitable sub-program is interposed, operation being prevented while the door remains open.

Abstract: The swirl-inducer (3) for the combustion air is connected to the mixing tube (2), while fuel is sprayed in by a nozzle. Outlets (6,7) in the tangential direction in the inducer (3) deliver combustion air (5) from the cone interior (16) into the mixing tube. Fuel can be delivered by nozzles (12,13) at the tangential outlets, and one central nozzle at least can be at the tip of the inducer. A combustion chamber can be situated downstream of the mixing tube, while the cross-section of the join between tube and chamber alters suddenly, at which point a reverse-flow zone acts.

Abstract: A V-belt B for high load transmission is composed of
endless load carriers 1, 1 and a large number of blocks 5,
5, ... . In the middle of a centre pillar 8 on one side surface
in a belt-lengthwise direction of each block 5, a concave 18
is formed. On the other side surface of each block 5, a convex
19 is formed so as to be capable of fitting the concave 18
of the adjacent block 5 therein. The concave 18 and the convex
19 are formed only in a resin material layer 13 and in the
shape of a truncated half sphere. At a part of the top surface
of the convex 19 from a pitch line 22 toward a belt inner face,
an inclined surface 20 is provided which inclines so that an
amount of projection of the convex 19 from the surrounding
of the convex 19 is decreased toward the belt inner face.
Thereby, even when the thickness of the resin material layer
13 of each block 5 in the belt-lengthwise direction is
decreased by a reinforcing member 16 embedded in each block
5, the strength of the convex 19 is ensured while preventing
decrease in strength of the centre pillar 8, which improves
silentness and durability of the V-belt B. Further, on right
and left side ends of each block 5, projections 17, 17 are
provided which each extend in a direction orthogonal to the
corresponding groove surface 20a of a pulley and each have
an approximately uniform length along a radius of the pulley
and parallel to the corresponding groove surface 20a, so that
contact surfaces 11 are formed at top ends of the projections
17, respectively. Thereby, even when each contact surface 11 
is worn out, a circumferential speed difference between each
block 5 and the corresponding groove surface 20a of the pulley
20 when the block enters and exits from the pulley 20 is kept
constant. As a result, changes over time of belt
characteristics such as a belt sound, heat production and
thrust balance are minimised.

Abstract: An uplink channel transmission power control
method is provided for a CDMA mobile communication system
performing one way communication. A base station (203)
measures the received level of data transmitted from each
mobile terminal (204) at each channel, and generates a
transmission power control signal of each uplink traffic
channel. The generated transmission power control
signals are multiplexed, and the multiplexed common
transmission power control signal is transmitted to all
mobile terminals by using the common channel shared by
the mobile terminals. Each mobile terminal derives the
transmission power control signal of the uplink traffic
channel used by the terminal, from the received common
transmission power control signal, and controls the
transmission power of a data packet.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a speech recognition method and system for transmitting information including the receipt and decoding of speech information such as that modeled by hidden Markov models (HMMs). The state likelihoods of the modeled state sequences contained within the speech information are assigned penalties based on the difference between those state likelihoods and a maximum possible state likelihood. Once penalties have been assigned, the modified state sequence with the modified state likelihoods having the highest cumulative state likelihoods is used in further speech recognition processing. In this manner, state sequences having no extremely poor state likelihoods are favored over those having both extremely high and extremely poor state likelihoods.

insulating board providing electrical insulation, an
insulating layer providing electrical insulation
formed at specific sites (where there are through-holes)

formed on the insulating layer. In this printed-wiring
board, when the second conductive layer is
formed, deposition of an electrically conductive

Abstract: A twin mass flywheel (210) comprising first (211) and second (212) co-axially arranged flywheel masses which are mounted for limited angular rotation relative to each other. The flywheel masses (211, 212) are interconnected by at least one linkage arrangement (240), comprising a multi-link linkage (240) having two or more circumferentially spaced main links (242, 251) pivotally mounted on the second flywheel masses with the or each circumferentially adjacent pair of main links interconnect via a generally circumferentially extending connecting linkage, and an anchor link (242) which connects the multi-link linkage (240) with the first flywheel mass. Relative rotation of the flywheel masses (211, 212) causes the multi-link linkage (240) to be pivoted relative to the second flywheel mass by the anchor link, so that when the twin mass flywheel is rotating, relative rotation of the flywheel masses (211, 212) is resisted by centripetal forces acting on the linkage arrangement. Any particular links may be in the form of a unitary link or in the form of a pair of parallel plates. Associated with one or more links, or pivots or acting between the flywheel masses (211, 212) there may be controlling means to control the relative rotation of the flywheel masses (211, 212).

forcing it downward and severing a sacrificial support means within the needle
assembly thereby permitting the base to move the enlarged head of the needle
downward, until it is blocked by the passageway. Further movement of the
base forces the enlarged needle head from the base and into contact with the
rupturable boot.

the ink contained in the ink-holding space (9a, 89) has been
exhausted. The ink container (1, 51) includes a flexible wall

(3, 55) forms a part of the ink-holding space (9a, 89) and the
outer surface of the flexible wall (3, 55) is exposed to the
atmospheric pressure. The urging member (5, 59, 76) takes the

is incorporated in the ink-holding space (9a, 89) and urges the
flexible wall (3, 55) outwardly of the ink-holding space (9a,

(3, 55) so that the flexible wall (3, 55) is displaceable
inwardly of the ink-holding space (9a, 89) as the ink is supplied
from the ink-holding space (9a, 89) to an external device. The
urging member (5, 59, 76) operates substantially in a plastic
