Title: Information processing technique associated with snow removal
Inventor: YUGAMI TAKASHI
IPC: E01H5/00
Filed: 2002-10-30
Abstract: An object of this invention is to provide an information processing technique in which consideration for snowily weak people, such as old people or handicapped people, in snow removal work is made in a suitable form. This information processing method includes the steps of: generating data (for example, priority patrol spot symbol .dottedcircle., snow clearing complaint spot symbol x, snow dumping complaint spot symbol .DELTA.) indicating the necessity of snow removal with a reason other than the snowily weak person based on position information of a registered snowily weak person; and transmitting map information (Fig. 18) including data indicating the necessity of the snow removal in response to the request from a terminal of a person relating to a snow removal plan. By doing so, it becomes possible to exhibit the necessity of the snow removal to the person relating to the snow removal plan without specifying the snowily weak person. This is because when the snowily weak person is specified, there is a case where a problem occurs in prevention of crimes.

Title: Alexander topology resonance energy conversion and inversion circuit utilizing a series capacitance multi-voltage resonance section
Inventor: COOK ALEXANDER
IPC: H02M3/335
Filed: 2001-07-09
Abstract: A circuit (100-1100) comprising a primary section and a multiple voltage secondary section. The multiple voltage secondary section includes a multiple voltage resonance section (x20), a filter section (x140, x44), and a load coupling section (x42). The circuit (100-1100) also includes a transformer, which is operatively configured to couple the primary and secondary sections.  The multiple voltage resonance section (x20) includes a capacitance (x28, x30), i.e., an Alexander Topology. This capacitance (x28, x30), which is preferable based on series capacitors (x28, x30), operatively generates a predetermined voltage, such that a turns ratio (N) of the transformer (x16) is lower than a non-multiple voltage resonance section to generate the predetermined voltage. Hence, this configuration decreases energy loss from the transformer (x16), thereby increasing efficiency.

Title: High density rj connector assembly
Inventor: BERNSTEIN ELLIOT
IPC: H01R12/16
Filed: 2003-02-27
Abstract: A modular connector (10) having a housing (20) with one or more compartments (16), each compartment being structured and arranged to receive a plug. Within the housing are one or more conductive planes. Preferably, there are two conductive planes, a voltage source plane (44) and a voltage ground plane (46). These source and ground planes are provided on a printed circuit board (40) within the housing. The source and ground planes create a low impedance path for the source and ground connections by directly connecting the source and ground planes to a system printed circuit board of the equipment unit by a common voltage source pin (31) and a common voltage ground pin (31), each of which extend from the housing. The voltage source connections and the voltage ground connections for each RJ jack (15) are respectively connected to the voltage source plane and the voltage ground plane such that each of the RJ jacks (15) share a common voltage source and ground. Accordingly, when multiport RJ connectors (10) are formed, the use of the common source and ground planes operates to reduce the number of pins (31) in each RJ unit by requiring only one voltage source pin (31) and one voltage ground pin (31) regardless of the number of RJ jacks (15) in the multiport connector.

Abstract: A mine roof bolt assembly for use in a bolt hole includes a rebar or rod having an externally threaded end and a nut ar other suitable fastener which is provided with an at least partially threaded opening configured to threadedly engage the threaded end of the rebar. A bore formed through the nut is configured for alignment with a position spaced a marginal distance from an outermost proximal end of the rebar when the nut is threaded on to the rebar in a first or initial position. A shear pin is inserted so as to locate partially within the bore formed in the nut to physically prevent the nut from being threaded further onto the rebar past the first position up to the application of a predetermined minimum torque. A thrust disk or other member is provided in the nut opening between the proximal end of the rebar and the pin.  The disk is axially slidable, whereby when the fastener is rotated relative to the rebar under a predetermined minimum torque, the disk is moved axially to engage and cause the pin to fracture or shear at the junction between the nut and the disk periphery. The fractured pin fragment within the nut thus may be moved axially from the opening together with the disk, so as not to interfere or otherwise wedge between the bolt and nut threads as the nut is threaded onto the bolt.
