Inventor: MARQUARDT OLIVER
IPC: B01J14/00
Filed: 2004-10-01
Abstract: Es wird ein integrierter Reaktor zur Herstellung eines Dampfgemisches aus mindestens zwei dem Reaktor über einen Zuführbereich gemeinsam zuführbaren flüssigen Fluidströmen durch zumindest teilweise Expansion des flüssigen Fluidgemisches am Ende des Zuführbereiches vorgestellt. Einer der mindestens zwei Fluidströme neigt zu einer unerwünschten Zersetzung und Ablagerungsbildung. Dieser flüssige Fluidstrom ist in dem Zuführungsbereich laminar in die Mitte eines weiteren der mindestens zwei Fluidströme zudosierbar, so dass der zur Zersetzung und Ablagerungsbildung neigende flüssige Fluidstrom in dem Zuführungsbereich von dem weiteren Fluidstrom umschlossen wird.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft eine Leuchtreklame, insbesondere einen Leuchtbuchstaben, die in bekannter Weise eine Gehäusewanne (1) umfasst, in der eine mindestens eine LED (7) tragende Platine (6) angeordnet ist. Ein Helligkeitssensor (8) misst die Umgebungshelligkeit; ihr Ausgangssignal wird einer Steuereinrichtung (11) zugeleitet. Diese steuert die Stromversorgung (9) für die LED (7) so an, dass die von der LED (7) abgegebene Lichtintensität mit zunehmender Umgebungshelligkeit kontinuierlich zunimmt. Auf diese Weise wird die Leuchtreklame mit einer an die Umgebungshelligkeit angepassten Helligkeit betrieben, wodurch Einsparungen an Energie und ein Gewinn an Lebensdauer der elektronischen Komponenten erzielbar sind.

Abstract: A reciprocating pump includes a cylinder with a closed interior compartment. A piston assembly has a dispensing end and an opposed end and is moveably mounted within the compartment for reciprocating movement in opposed linear directions between opposed ends of the closed interior compartment. A linear magnetic drive generates a linearly moving magnetic field for moving the piston assembly in opposed linear directions through a swept volume in each of said opposed linear directions. A sealing member is provided between the cylinder and the piston assembly to divide the interior compartment of the cylinder into a dispensing chamber and a reservoir chamber. A valve-controlled inlet conduit communicates with the dispensing chamber from which liquid is dispensed and a valve-controlled outlet conduit communicates with the dispensing chamber for directing pumped liquid out of the interior compartment as the piston assembly is moved through the swept volume in a dispensing stroke. An energy storage and release media communicates with the reservoir chamber for storing energy as a result of movement of the piston assembly in a direction away from the dispensing end of the interior compartment and for releasing the stored energy as the piston assembly is moved in a direction toward the dispensing end of the interior compartment.

Abstract: La présente invention propose un dispositif (10) de circuit intégré à logique programmable présentant une pluralité de régions (20) de logique programmable disposées sur le dispositif en une pluralité de rangées et colonnes de croisement desdites régions. Des ressources d'interconnexion (e.g. conducteurs d'interconnexion, amortisseurs/amplificateurs de signaux, connecteurs programmables et autres) sont prévues sur le dispositif pour effectuer des interconnexions à partir de, vers et/ou entre les régions. Certaines au moins de ces ressources d'interconnexions se présentent sous deux formes qui sont d'architecture semblable (e.g. ayant un acheminement similaire et parallèle) mais qui possèdent des caractéristiques de vitesse de propagation de signal considérablement différentes. Par exemple, la majeure ou une plus grande partie de ces ressources (200a, 210a, 230a) d'interconnexion à dualité de forme présente ce que l'on peut appeler une vitesse de signal normale, tandis qu'une plus petite partie (200b, 210b, 230b) peut présenter une vitesse notablement supérieure. La répartition secondaire des signaux (e.g. des signaux d'horloge ou de libération) peut également être améliorée, de même que les circuits entrée/sortie et les connexions en cascade entre des modules contigus ou voisins sur le dispositif.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un verrouillage de sécurité d'un dispositif de réglage d'un véhicule. Ce verrouillage de sécurité comprend un corps de déclenchement, lequel possède un mécanisme de déclenchement, est monté pivotant sur une partie du châssis de siège et quitte sa position de repos par son énergie d'inertie lors du dépassement d'une charge de collision prédéterminée, ce qui permet un verrouillage par liaison de forme du dispositif de réglage à l'aide d'au moins un élément de verrouillage. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que le mécanisme de déclenchement (4) peut être découplé du ou des élément(s) de verrouillage fixé(s) de façon élastique dans un sens de verrouillage (44a, 44b) lors du dépassement de la charge de collision prédéterminée. Un élément de retenue (412a, 412b) associé à l'élément de verrouillage (44a, 44b) peut être commandé par le corps de déclenchement (41) sur lequel s'applique la force élastique de l'élément de verrouillage fixé. En outre, une coulisse (410) coopère avec le corps de déclenchement (41) et un élément de maintien (42) sollicité par un ressort agit dessus, permettant ainsi d'adapter avec précision l'énergie de déclenchement et le temps de déclenchement aux différentes données.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus and a computer program product are provided for accurately determining the vertical speed of an aircraft in a manner independent of signals provided by an air data computer, an inertial reference system and an inertial navigation system. Initially, a first vertical velocity of the aircraft is determined based upon a pressure altitude value associated with the aircraft. A second vertical velocity of the aircraft is also obtained from a GPS receiver carried by the aircraft. The first and second vertical velocities are then combined to determine the vertical speed of the aircraft. In this regard, the first and second vertical velocities are combined by complimentarily filtering the first and second vertical velocities. More particularly, the first vertical velocity is typically low pass filtered to remove high frequency noise that is attributable to the relatively low resolution of the first vertical velocity value. Additionally, the second vertical velocity is typically high pass filtered to reduce errors due to long-term drift. Thus, the vertical speed of the aircraft is determined according to the present invention so as to have the best attributes of both the first and second vertical velocity values while eliminating the most common types of errors included within the first and second vertical velocity values.
