Abstract: Metal powder compositions for producing a high-strength and high-density
metal component by powder metallurgical techniques. A metal powder composition of
the present invention comprises acicular metal particles (10) associated with a
polymeric binder (25) or a combination of inorganic binders (35) and polymeric binders
(25), such as by coating or mixing. When the powder composition is compacted by a
powder metallurgical compaction technique, the resulting compact (40) has an improved
density and an improved strength. The compact (40) can be used in applications such as
a structural component or as a magnetic core component for AC or DC applications.

IPC: A61N1/37

Abstract: An implantable dual chamber stimulation device provides a novel
detection scheme for automatically detecting atrial capture and
performing an atrial pacing threshold assessment. The stimulation device
preferably waits until the patient is at or near rest and monitors the
patient's P-wave activity to determine an detection window where a next
P-wave is expected to occur. The stimulation device then delivers an
atrial pulse prior to the next detection window, and monitors the window
to determine whether a P-wave occurs therein. If a P-wave does not
occur, then atrial capture is present, while occurrence of a P-wave
indicates absence of atrial capture. If atrial capture is absent, the
stimulation device automatically determines an appropriate atrial pacing
threshold by monitoring the detection window while adjusting the
stimulation pulse energy level. Advantageously, the present invention
further employs a "bottom-up" adjusting scheme which starts at a low
energy level, below the expected atrial pacing threshold, and increases
the energy level until atrial capture is detected, thus saving energy and
further avoiding corruption by large polarization signals. The latter feature
is compatible with the present detection scheme and conventional evoked
response detection schemes. The new atrial pacing threshold is then set
at the atrial pulse level at which atrial capture was effectuated plus a
predetermined safety margin.

Abstract: An inking device (1) is proposed for feeding ink that is fed to an ink rail (10) to a
printing plate on a plate cylinder (2) via a group of rollers that are sequentially in
contact with each other. The inking device comprises a first roller (11) part of the
outer periphery of which faces an ink feeding surface (10a) of the ink rail, a second
roller (12) that is disposed downstream of the first roller in the ink feeding process
and in contact with the outer periphery of the first roller on the downstream
side in the rotating direction from the position at which the first roller faces the
ink feeding surface of the ink rail, a third roller (13) that is in contact with the first
roller on the downstream side in the rotating direction from the position at
which the second roller comes in contact with the outer periphery of the first
roller, and a fourth roller (14) that is in contact with the outer peripheries of the
second and third rollers and blocks the front side in the rotating direction of
the first and second rollers at the position where the first and second rollers
are in contact with each other. Ink droplets and ink particles produced at the
contact area of the first and second rollers by the rotation thereof are thereby
contained in a space (16) enclosed by the first through fourth rollers (11,12,13,14).

Dans un autre aspect de cette invention, une version inverse de la partie AM du signal de transmission désiré est introduite dans la boucle de rétroaction de régulation de puissance d'un amplificateur qui amplifie à la fois un signal à modulation de phase et un signal à modulation d'amplitude. Par introduction d'une version inverse du signal AM désiré dans la boucle de rétroaction de régulation de puissance, cette boucle de rétroaction de régulation de puissance peut ne pas annuler le constituant AM présent à la sortie de l'amplificateur de puissance. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention encore, le signal AM désiré est injecté dans la boucle de rétroaction avec le signal de référence de régulation de puissance.

Abstract: A camless intake/exhaust valve for an internal combustion engine that
is controlled by a solenoid actuated fluid control valve. The control valve has
a pair of solenoids that move a spool. Energizing one solenoid moves the
spool and valve into an open position. The valve spool is maintained in the
open position by the residual magnetism of the steel valve housing and spool
even when power is no longer provided to the solenoid. Energizing the other
solenoid moves the spool and valve to a closed position without providing a
de-magnetizing force to the first solenoid. The solenoids are digitally latched
by short digital pulses provided by a microcontroller. The valve is therefore
opened by providing a digital pulse of a short duration to one of the solenoids
and closed by a digital pulse that is provided to the other solenoid.

sufficiently exposed to cooling winds so that the cooling
performance is remarkably improved. It is another object of this
invention to provide an alternator for a vehicle which is excellent in
cooling performance, insulating characteristic, and heat resisting
property. An alternator for a vehicle includes a stator. The stator
includes an iron core 22, an electric conductor 21, and an insulator
23. The electric conductor 21 forms a winding on the iron core 22.
The insulator 23 provides electric insulation between the electric
conductor 21 and the iron core 22. The stator is supported by a
housing. The dimension of openings of slots in the iron core 22 is
smaller than the distance between inner side surfaces of the slots.
The electric conductor 21 has accommodated portions
accommodated in the slots, and bridge portions connecting the
accommodated portions. Pieces of the electric conductor which
extend out of the slots are approximately separated into a conductor
groups 21f located on outer radial sides of the slots and a conductor
group 21g located on inner radial sides of the slots, and form the
bridge portions. Predetermined gaps are provided between pieces
of the electric conductor in the bridge portions. The bridge
portions have ridge portions inclined in a same circumferential
direction in each of the outer radial side and the inner radial side,
and top portions connecting the ridge portions along an axial and
radial direction.
