Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for a steering column (100) is disclosed in which a clamping arrangement utilizes a fixed (120) and moving (122) cam for clamping the steering column in a desired rake and/or reach position. The moving cam has a snail cam (150) profiled formed at its periphery. The fixed cam has laterally extending arms (130, 132) with angled flexible tabs (134,136) projecting therefrom. The angled flexible tabs follow the snail cam profile so that, in the clamped configuration, there is a clearance (A) between the flexible tabs and the snail cam and, in the undamped configuration, the flexible tabs are flexed outwardly and thereby provide a component of force (D) to urge the cam surfaces of the fixed and moving cams towards each other. Free play and rattle are reduced as a result.

Patent EP-1905150-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TURNER JAMES B
IPC: H03G3/10
Filed: 2006-07-20
Abstract: DC power savings in a mobile communication device can be achieved by dynamically adjusting the biasing for a receiver based on the communication link quality. The output signal levels of at least one low noise amplifier (LNA) are monitored to identify the DC operating conditions for the LNA. Closed loop control of the DC biasing is adjusted based on a comparison between the monitored DC operating conditions and a reference signal. The output of the LNA is also coupled to a radio receiver section that is configured (e.g., SW or HW) to evaluate the link quality based on various criteria such as inter-modulation distortion, noise, interference, fading, etc. The reference signal that is used to control the DC biasing of the LNA is adjusted (periodically, continuously, or on demand) in response to the evaluated link quality. The dynamic biasing yields acceptable signal reception with low DC power consumption.

Abstract: A terminal device searches for a satellite signal by performing a correlation process over a predetermined first accumulation time within a predetermined frequency range in units of search frequencies at specific intervals. When the terminal device has failed in searching for the satellite signal, the terminal device searches for the satellite signal by performing the correlation process over a predetermined second accumulation time longer than the first accumulation time at the search frequency and frequencies differing from the search frequency by a specific frequency which is less than the interval of the search frequencies and specified based on a drift of a reference oscillator of the terminal device within the second accumulation time. The terminal device determines a search result of the satellite signal based on a search result at the search frequency and search results at the frequencies differing from the search frequency by the specific frequency.
