Patent EP-0926806-A3 (EP)
Inventor: NOVELLI FLAVIO
IPC: H02K16/00
Filed: 1998-11-30
Abstract: The machine proposed here fits in the category of synchronous machines with rotating
field. The machine consist of a stator and a rotor. The stator is composed of two
concentric toroidal shapes : the external tore is similar to the stator of a synchronous
machine, the internal tore is similar to the rotor on an induction machine . The air gap
between the two stators is such to allow for the insertion of the rotor . The rotor is formed of
by either permanent magnets made of neodimium or electromagnets. The machine is
symmetrical with respect to a plane passing through the central magnet support disk . 
     The symmetri guarantees greater stability however the machine is completely operational
even if only one half side is developed. The external stator house the coils which
produce the rotating field. This can be reinforced by eventually placing coils on the
internal stator according to the project design to be realized . The rotor magnets are
blocked by a squirrel cage structure which , during start-up , facilitates
synchronization . Startup is obtained through an electronic variable frequency generator
which provides greater elasticity in the number of rotations desired . 
     The advantage of the double air gap is that it doubles the attraction betwen magnets and
rotating field. The machine, when hooked to a prime mover, becomes a generator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for for reducing the storage size
required for temporary data by storage order optimization. Advantageously, the execution
order optimization and the storage order optimization may be treated independently. The
storage size optimisation is preferably performed by determining an optimum intra-array
and/or inter-array storage order based on a geometrical model. The geometrical model
provides a representation of the address space occupied by an array as a function ot time
and allows the calculation of the window size of the occupied address/time domain of the
array. Where calculations would be time-consuming, these may be shortened by making
simplifying assumptions, e.g. calculation of upper and lower bounds of the window size of
the occupied address/time domain of an array rather than an exact calculation. Further,
heuristical simplifications are described to reduce run-times for the optimisation process. 
     A prototype compiler and its performance are also described.

Abstract: There is provided a die structure having a simple
configuration in which a damage of thin plate-like material
(workpiece) caused by a continuous punching of holes while
punctured chips are being adhered to the extremity end of the
punch is prevented and the punctured chips are prevented from
being raised as the punch is lifted up to close the punctured
punch holes. The punch P pierces into the resilient film 3.
The pierced hole of the resilient film 3 punched by the punch
P is kept at a state in which it is extended instantly, torn
out, removed and resiliently expanded, and in turn when the
punch P is pulled out of it, it is resiliently shrunk into
a smaller shape than that of the punch P. The punctured chip
(c) adhered to the extremity end of the punch P is engaged
with the resilient film 3 (more practically, an edge of the
punctured hole to be shrunk) which is shrunk when the punch
P is raised and then drops.

Abstract: A traffic source emits packet-based traffic (ATM) carrying a plurality of variable bit rate
calls. The traffic is managed by: measuring a parameter of the current traffic output
from the source, using the measured parameter in a comparison with a parameter
which is indicative of available capacity on the link; and providing a control signal for
varying the operational state of the traffic source according to the comparison. The
operational state can be varied by choosing a combination of a coding rate, selected
from a range of coding rates, and selective use of silence suppression. A cell policing
algorithm can be used, such as the GCRA. The system lowers transmission quality of
voice traffic before lowering transmission quality of the data traffic, and uses silence
suppression for voice traffic before using lower coding rates for the traffic source.

melt wear layer to a textured or embossed surface without
distortion of the visual image of the textured substrate.
The wear layer substantially follows the contours of the
substrate with minimum change in thickness of the wear layer
over the textured surface and provides an aesthetically
pleasing three dimensional appearance to the textured
surface of the substrate. Melt applying the melt processable
polymer resin to the textured substrate with a conformable
pressure roll deter entrapment of bubbles between the wear
layer and the textured substrate. Therefore, the wear layer
exhibits significant clarity and visual depth, as well as
improved maintenance (cleanability) properties. The
resulting product has a visual image clarity reflecting any
texture in the substrate including very light reflective
(lenticular moray) embossings.
