Title: hardware para comunicação com bombas de combustìveis lìquidos e dispenser de gás natural
Inventor: FREHSE CLAUDIO ROBERTO BERTUCC
IPC: H04B10/07
Filed: 2006-05-17
Abstract: HARDWARE PARA COMUNICAçãO COM BOMBAS DE COMBUSTìVEIS LìQUIDOS E DISPENSER DE GáS NATURAL, especialmente aplicados em postos de combustíveis com conexão padrão Ethernet para redes locais B Console iCom, onde o Console iCom não é conectado ao computador em uma porta serial como a maioria dos outros disponíveis no mercado, mas pode ser conectado diretamente a um computador, conectado direto ao SWITCH/HUB (hardware que possibilita a comunicação entre vários micros B rede) ou através de adaptador Wi-Fi interligado a uma rede Wireless, passando a ser um ponto a mais na rede, recebendo automaticamente um endereço IP de acordo com a configuração da rede em uso. O Console iCom pode ser acessado através de conexão da rede local (LAN) via lnternet (ADSL ou discada), via fornecimento de nome de usuário e senha segura ou ainda por todos os computadores conectados a esta rede Ethernet (Local/LAN ou Wireless) de que ele faça parte, permitindo o controle e monitoração do mesmo. Para uma rede de postos esta interatividade permite que os preços sejam alterados remotamente, assim como travamento, liberação ou captura de encerrantes; em se tratando de uma bandeira ou distribuidor de combustíveis esses teriam os mesmos controles mas tratando mais especificamente suas necessidades, dentre as quais pode se considerar o controle de entrada e saída de combustíveis através dos encerrantes.

Title: Ink/air separator for an inkjet printer
Inventor: PLUMMER MARC SIMON
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 2010-06-29
Abstract: An ink/air separator for an ink jet printer has one or more plates 77, 79, 81, 83 over which an ink/air mixture can spread. Preferably there is more than one plate, and the mixture overflows from one plate to the next. Preferably adjacent plates are spaced so that as the mixture passes between two plates it contacts the surface above it as well as the surface below it. Preferably some or all of the plate surfaces contacted by the mixture are roughened/textured. Interaction between the ink/air mixture and the plate surface tends to slow the flow of very small air bubbles and encourage them to accumulate and/or merge, so that they separate from the ink more quickly than individual small bubbles. The ink/air separator may be connected in the path of unused ink returned from the gutter (27, Fig.4) of a continuous ink jet printer to an ink tank (39, Fig.4), or may be placed inside the ink tank (39, Fig.4).

Title: High dynamic range swiched amplification circuit with low noise capacitive attenuator
Inventor: TRULLS-FORTUNY XAVIER
IPC: H03G1/00
Filed: 2010-12-22
Abstract: An amplification circuit has an amplifier with at least a first amplification device, and a switchable attenuation circuit with one or more switches and a plurality of attenuation devices operable to provide different levels of attenuation to a signal input to said amplifier depending on the status of the switches (fig.1). An embodiment comprises a switchable amplifier 300 and a switched attenuator 100. The attenuator 100 comprises a switched capacitive attenuation ladder SW1-SW2, CA1-CA2 and CB1-CB2. For medium to large inputs, switch 900 is closed and transistor 600b bypassed and gain is controlled by closing SW1 or SW2. For low signals, SW1 and SW2 are open and the input is isolated from transistor 600a. An un-interrupted switch-free path then connects the low level signal to transistor 600b which together with transistor 600a acts as a cascode amplifier. By providing a separate switch free path for small signals, the problem of (resistive) switch noise is overcome, while still providing selectable attenuation for larger input signals. A differential version of the circuit is disclosed (fig.5).

Title: A controller that reduces NVH in a hybrid vehicle
Inventor: RANSON MARTIN
IPC: B60W10/08
Filed: 2012-06-07
Abstract: A controller 140 operates a powertrain of a hybrid vehicle 100 so as to avoid one or more undesirable combinations of values of generator 123 torque load, driveline speed parameter and driveline ratio parameter. The driveline speed corresponds to a speed Wtx of an output portion 124S of a transmission 124 and the driveline ratio parameter corresponds to a gear ratio TG selected in the transmission 124. Controller 123 uses Wtx and TG in a look-up table to produce an upper limit of allowable CIMG 123 charging torque TQ(maxcharge). If CIMG 123 torque exceeds TQ(maxcharge) the controller 140 commands the CIMG 123 to deliver a value of torque corresponding to TQ(maxcharge). In some embodiments the controller 140 is configured to force the transmission 124 to change gear whenever a value of CIMG 123 torque exceeds or is at risk of exceeding TQ(maxcharge). Reference is also made to a method of controlling a hybrid vehicle and to a hybrid vehicle.
