Patent EP-1128041-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MANAKA TOSHIO
IPC: F01N13/02
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas purification method
and system for an internal combustion engine (99). The internal
combustion engine (99) comprises a generator (51;
31) driven by said internal-combustion engine, a battery
(38) charged with an electricity generation output from the
generator (51; 31), and a NOx adsorption catalyst (18)
placed in an exhaust gas passage. The catalyst (18) chemisorbs
NOx in a state where the amount of an oxidizer is
larger than that of a reducer in the stoichiometry relation
of oxidoreduction between components contained in exhaust
gas exhausted from said internal combustion engine (99) and
catalytically reduces the adsorbed or absorbed NOx in a
state where the amount of the reducer is at least equivalent
to that of the oxidizer. When the time-elapsing deterioration
of the NOx adsorption catalyst (18) reaches to a
predetermined degree, the combustion condition of said internal
combustion engine (99) is controlled at the stoichiometric
air-fuel ratio or an excess fuel air-fuel ratio
in a predetermined time period to reactivate the NOx adsorption
catalyst (18) from the time-elapsing deterioration,
and the increased proportion of the internal combustion
engine output generated during the above time period
is absorbed with said generator (51; 31).

Abstract: According to this invention, upon execution of
recording by ejecting an ink droplet from a recording
head, a surrounding temperature sensor for measuring
the surrounding temperature is provided to a main body
side, and a change in temperature of the head is
presumed from the past to the present time by
calculation processing, so that optimal temperature
control can be performed without arranging a head
temperature sensor having a correlation with the head
temperature. 
     At this time, the ejection quantity can be
stabilized by changing the pulse width of a driving
signal on the basis of the presumed head temperature,
and ejection can be stabilized by performing
restoration processing.

Abstract: Block noises generated on an input video signal
that has been code and decoded per pixel block are
detected. The input video signal is differentiated per
pixel block to obtain a differentiated signal.
Impulses of the differentiated signal is detected to
obtain a detection signal carrying the impulses. The
detection signal is integrated and compared with a
reference signal to determine whether the block noise
is generated on the input video signal. For noise
reduction, the detection signal is filtered to obtain
a correction signal. The input video signal is delayed
by a predetermined period. The correction signal is
added to the delayed video signal to cancel the
difference in signal level on the boundary between a
first pixel block on which a block noise is generated
and a second pixel block adjacent to the first pixel
block of the input video signal.

Abstract: A line powered data access arrangement (DAA) is disclosed which adaptively
allows proper operation with power supplied from a telephone line as conditions
warrant, while at the same time satisfying the relevant requirements of many
countries. In the line powered codec, a startup procedure for the international line
powered codec uses register settings, e.g., country-specific register settings, which
are powered and maintained from the low voltage side (e.g., from the PC or modem
side) of the line powered codec. In this way, even during low line power conditions
the programmed state of the line powered codec can be maintained, thus a default
condition will not necessarily returned to by the line powered codec upon reset due to
a power loss in the telephone line. In another aspect, a charge storage device such
as a charge capacitor is charged from a charge pump formed from a differential clock
signal from the low voltage side. A current and voltage detection module in the line
powered codec is always powered from the telephone line. Upon detection of an off-hook
signal or a power down condition, the current detection module determines
if/when the current and voltage on the telephone line is sufficient to power certain
circuits on the line powered codec. If sufficient power is not present, the line powered
codec does not power up. However, the line powered codec will power up if sufficient
current is detected. In another aspect, a plurality of power rails may be provided. A
first power rail may be associated with the line power, a second power rail may be
associated with a low voltage side power source, e.g., a charge storage device. A
third (and other) power rails may be switchably connected to either the first power rail
or second power rail as line power conditions and on-hook/off-hook conditions
warrant.

Abstract: An automatic projectile firing weapon and a related method for
absorbing the recoil force of an automatic projectile firing weapon are
disclosed. The weapon includes a barrel assembly that is slidably mounted in
a receiver, biased by an operating spring, and engageable with a main sear.
A gas operated bolt assembly is slidably mounted within the barrel assembly
and is driven by a bolt spring. A trigger is provided to release the main sear
and allow the operating spring to move the barrel assembly forwardly in the
receiver. There is further provided a buffer connected between the receiver
and the barrel assembly to dampen the velocity of the barrel assembly to
ensure the barrel assembly is moving at a predetermined maximum velocity
when a round is fired at a predetermined firing position. The recoil energy
from the fired round is absorbed mainly by the forward motion of the barrel
assembly and in part by the operating spring and buffer. In this manner, the
peak recoil load to the receiver is minimized and the weapon operates at its
actual firing rate from the first shot.

Abstract: For setting selection gate positions for change speed in a gear-shift mechanism of an automatic gear transmission, a first actuator is activated to rotate a shift-and-select lever for shifting one of shift heads engaged therewith in its neutral position to a low or high speed side in a shift direction, and a second actuator is activated to effect movement of the shift-and-select lever in a select direction perpendicular to the shift direction in a condition where the shift head was shifted to the low or high speed side. The second actuator is deactivated when the movement of the shift-and-select lever in the select direction was restricted by engagement with the shift head shifted to the low or high speed side. When the second actuator was deactivated, an output value of a selection-stroke sensor for detecting operation of the second actuator is read out for setting a selection gate position of the shift head shifted to the low or high speed side based thereon.
