Patent EP-1309829-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GIZA RICHARD
IPC: F41A5/16
Filed: 2001-03-02
Abstract: A recoil control mechanism for a weapon which fires a projectile which is characterised by the generation of a forward counterforce to the rearward recoil simultaneously with absorption of rearward recoil force upon initiation of propoulsion of the projectile. The forward counterforce is generated by propelling a first mass forwardly upon firing the projectile and substantially simultaneously propelling a second mass rearwardly for absorbing some of the recoil force. In one mechanism (10), the first mass may be the weapon's barrel (12) and the second mass its breach block (14). Expaning gases (36) from detonation of propellant in cartridge (24) enter a reaction volume (28) between the barrel (12) and breech block (14). These gases drive barrel (12) forwardly against force transmission spring (16) to impose a forward counterforce on the weapon's frame (18). Substantially simultaneously recoil from detonation of cartridge (22) together with the gasses (36) in reaction volume (28) drive breech block (14) rearwardly against force absorbing spring (20).

Abstract: A data recovery system for a serial digital data link includes a data sampler, compare logic, a phase controller, and a phase shifter. The data sampler samples input data three times in a bit time which time is determined by clock pulses generated by the phase shifter, and recovers digital data according to a predetermined decision criterion. The compare logic compares the output of the data sampler according to a predetermined method. Phase controller uses the output of the compare logic and generates phase control signals. The phase shifter uses the phase control signals and makes three different phase clocks from input clock. The input clock can be an external clock, or can be recovered from the external clock or input data stream.

Abstract: A method in which thin-film p-i-n heterojunction photodiodes are formed by selective epitaxial growth/deposition on pre-designated active-area regions of standard CMOS devices. The thin-film p-i-n photodiodes are formed on active areas (for example n<SUP>+</SUP>-doped), and these are contacted at the bottom (substrate) side by the "well contact" corresponding to that particular active area. There is no actual potential well since that particular active area has only one type of doping. The top of each photodiode has a separate contact formed thereon. The selective epitaxial growth of the p-i-n photodiodes is modular, in the sense that there is no need to change any of the steps developed for the "pure" CMOS process flow. Since the active region is epitaxially deposited, there is the possibility of forming sharp doping profiles and band-gap engineering during the epitaxial process, thereby optimizing several device parameters for higher performance. This new type of light sensor architecture, monolithically integrated with CMOS, decouples the photo-absorption active region from the MOSFETs, hence the bias applied to the photodiode can be independent from the bias between the source, drain, gate and substrate (well) of the MOSFETs.

Abstract: An engine cooling apparatus includes a flow regulating valve, which adjusts a flow rate of a coolant passing through a radiator provided in a coolant circulation passage of the engine, and an electronic control unit (ECU), which controls an opening of the flow regulating valve such that an engine outlet coolant temperature reaches a necessary target temperature. The ECU sets a basic opening as a feedforward term based on the operation state of the engine. The ECU calculates a final opening from an F/B constant as a feedback term, which is increased or decreased such that the engine outlet coolant temperature reaches the target temperature, and the basic opening. Further, the ECU performs feedback control on the opening of the flow regulating valve based on the final opening. As a result, the responsibility of the coolant temperature control is improved.

Abstract: In a camera and method, the electronic image initially made
available for viewing, following deactivation and reactivation of a display,
depends upon the duration of inactivity and the prior electronic image viewed. In
the method, a series of electronic images are sequentially captured and stored in
memory in a camera. An image display of the camera is then selectively
activated. A default image is shown on the display responsive to the activating.
The display is selectively switched to a user selected image following the showing
of the default image. The display is deactivated at the end of a display
deactivation time period and selectively reactivated following the deactivating.
The default image is shown, responsive to the reactivating, when the deactivating
is prior to the switching. The user selected image is shown, responsive to the
reactivating, when the deactivating follows the switching and the reactivating is
during a first time period following the deactivating. The default image is shown,
responsive to the reactivating, when the deactivating follows the switching and the
reactivating is during a second time period following the first time period.
