Patent EP-0922367-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HAARTSEN JACOBUS CORNELIS
IPC: H04W48/10
Filed: 1997-08-22
Abstract: The air interface of a private radio system (10) is adapted to be compatible with the air interface of a cellular mobile network (20). The private radio system's beacon channel (BCH) includes a dual-burst type of frequency correction channel (FCCH) and synchronization channel (SCH). The burst formats of these two channels (FB, SB) are defined according to the frequency correction channel and synchronization channel burst formats used in the cellular mobile network (20). An information message carried in the private synchronization channel (SCH) includes status and identity information related to the private radio system. An access request channel (ARCH) is defined for the private radio system, which enables a mobile terminal to request access to the private radio system. The protocol of the private radio system's access request channel (in the uplink) is similar to the protocol of the celular network's access grant channel (AGCH) used in the downlink. Alternatively, the protocol of the cellular network's synchronization channel (SCH) in the downlink can be used for the private radio system's access request channel (ARCH) (in the uplink). Consequently, the mobile terminal (26) can be used as a private cordless phone.

Abstract: The invention concerns a land and flying vehicle with its tubular frame, 2 main rotors with triangular blades and adjustable pitch-propellers, with its drive propelled by the force of a hydraulic turbine located at the end of its driving shaft. Said force is propelled by a hydraulic pump THP driven by an internal combustion engine or reactor. Streamlined pusher propellers (14) (already patented) located on the side (Fig. 2) are driven by hydraulic turbines located at the shaft end of rotating propellers (14) once they are extended from 0 DEG  to 180 DEG . Streamlined pitch blades (13) with collective opening are located under the 2 passenger seats and provide stability. The pilot is in the centre, above the engine and the air-driven pump. All the driving hydraulic systems are located at the shaft ends and enable said manoeuvres. The drawings (Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5) describe the revolutionary design and enable the installation of said system on some current helicopter models. By said method the present drive assembly, gimbal joints, gear-boxes are replaced with turbine drives with smooth and lightweight start. Said methods can be adapted on running vehicles, including trains, whereof the designs and applications are reserved.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the automatic conducting of a straightening process for an object that is to be straightened, such as sheet metal, strips, sections, pipes, and in particular for wire-like or multiwire-like objects that are to be straightened, in a straightening device or a levelling machine with at least one mangle roll which can be adjusted by an actuator. In accordance with the invention, a process simulation model of a straightening process that is to be conducted, and a process simulation programme are set up, and the latter gives directly "online" the settings of the adjustable mangle roll(s). During the straightening process, changes in the product data, in particular the material characteristics and/or dimensions of the object to be straightened which influence the realization of the straightening process, are recorded, and from these, data for setting the adjustable mangle roll(s) are also calculated, and signals are emitted for the automatic setting of the adjustable mangle roll(s) by means of an actuator and/or actuators.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for
the  ex vivo  transduction of mammalian cells, in
particular to the transduction of bone marrow stromal
cells. These cells can be transduced with a gene of
interest, in particular a B-domain deleted human factor
VIII gene. In the latter case, the trasnduced cells can
be used to treat hemophilia A. The method for the  ex vivo 
transduction of bone marrow stromal cells with the human
factor VIII gene comprises provision of an intron-based
retroviral vector comprising a B-domain deleted human
factor VIII cDNA (designated as MFG-FVIIIΔB); 
pseudotyping the said vector with the Gibbon ape leukemia
virus (GALV) envelope; transducing bone marrow stromal
cells with the said pseudotyped vector by pre-incubating
the cells for a suitable period of time in cell culture
medium without phosphate and subsequently adding a
vector-containing supernatant, optionally supplemented
with transduction additives to the cells, followed by
centrifuging the mixture thus obtained; and optionally
repeating the two previous steps.

Abstract: A packing mounting groove 14 consisting of a wide portion
14a and a narrow portion 14b is formed in a seal land 13 in
a spool. In addition, a packing 11 includes on both sides
of its second portion 11b, which is fitted on the narrow
portion 14b, a seal lip 18 that contacts the groove wall of
the narrow portion 14b in a gas-tight manner such that air
is prevented from flowing into the groove bottom.
Furthermore, a lip width (f) representing the distance
between both seal lips 18 and 18 under a non-seal condition
is set the same as or smaller than the width (a) of the
wide portion 14a of the mounting groove 14. Air resistance
which occurs when a packing is mounted in the mounting
groove of a spool is reduced. Reducing this air resistance
facilitates the mounting operation and prevents compressed
air from being contained in a groove bottom space, and thus
prevents the packing from floating.

Abstract: A CELP vocoder efficiently encodes an excitation vector in a way that is
less sensitive to single bit errors. Each of the pulses composing the excitation vector

addition, a single bit error only produces an error in one pulse.

Abstract: The apparatus is arranged on a transversal cutting
machine, comprising means of cut and means of conveying
the cut portions, for example rolls (2) or stacks obtained
from logs (6) of a fixed length. The outlet means
comprises a first conveyor (15) followed by a second
conveyor (16). The first conveyor can displace from the
outlet zone, by rotating or moving away after the passage
of the last cut portion (2) of a log (6). In this way a
first trimmed portion (3) falls down downstream of the
cutting zone brought by the pusher (10) that can easily
pass for turning back, and then a second trimmed portion
falls down before that the first cut portion of the
following log passes. Just after the passage of the second
trimmed portion the first conveyor means (15) move back to
such a position that allows regularly the transport of the
cut portions (2). In this way it is possible also the use
of pushers of large surface. The first conveyor means,
preferably, moves away from the outlet zone after a
rotation about a fixed hinge (19). Alternatively, they
move to the side of the outlet zone.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une antenne de réflexion passive (75) placée près d'une antenne de réception active (71) et qui est utilisée pour changer l'énergie au niveau de l'antenne de réception (71). Le changement d'énergie est capable d'éliminer un vide d'onde créé par une structure multivoie ou pour susciter une directionalité, ou les deux. L'antenne de réception (71) est raccordée en permanence à un récepteur unique (73). Lorsque le signal de sortie du récepteur tombe en dessous d'un niveau de qualité acceptable, la phase de réflexion de la charge de l'antenne passive évolue jusqu'à changer la phase de l'énergie de réflexion et produire un effet désiré (éliminer un vide d'onde, changer la directionalité, etc.) au niveau de l'antenne de réception (71). Selon une réalisation plus simple, on commute la terminaison de l'antenne passive (75) d'un état circuit ouvert à un état circuit fermé, ou vice versa, de façon à inverser la phase de l'énergie de réflexion.
