Patent BR-9915269-A (BR)
Inventor: KIRN LARRY
IPC: H03F3/30
Filed: 1999-11-12
Abstract: A switching amplifier employs a plurality of independent output stages in a bridged configuration, with each output stage presenting the product of an independent duty cycle and two or more static of dynamic reference voltages, currents or powers to a single terminal of a common output load. A plurality of electrically controlled switches (207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212) interconnect the references to the load (218), with a waveform generator (220) controlling the switches for a coarse and fine control of power to the load. The waveform generator preferably uses pulse-code modulation (PCM), though the invention is not limited in this regard, and is applicable to any modulation scheme or waveform suitable to sequence the electrically controlled switches. The load is preferably filtered on either side, and return paths for the power supplies (i.e., ground) are connected through separate switches to the load through the filters (213, 214, 215, 216, 217). The amplifier may be used for audio or other applications benefitting from the design.

Title: Selector valve for showers
Inventor: SAMWELL CHRISTOPHER JOHN
IPC: E03C1/04
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: A selector valve arrangement 4 for a shower bath comprises a radially directed, angularly movable flow directing ported valve member 40 within a valve chamber 41 having ports (45-48, figure 4) with which porting 44 of the valve member 40 selectively communicates on appropriate rotational positioning of the valve member 40. The valve member 40 receives fluid for distribution through a selected port or ports (45-48) from an on/off fluid flow control inlet valve 43. A spindle 42 for rotating the valve member (40) may be axially operable and releasably lockable for operating the on/off flow valve (43). Alternatively an operating spindle has a co-axial hollow shaft (62, figure 10) about it which can be releasably locked to the spindle (32). When locked together the shaft (62) operates the ported valve member (60) with the on/off flow inlet valve such as a ceramic disc type valve (30) remaining inoperative i.e. during port selection. On release of the shaft (62) from the spindle (32) the latter can independently operate the on/off flow inlet valve (30) for admitting fluid flow to the ported valve member (60) and to the porting (66). The selector valve arrangement may be received in a body 10 or body assembly having passageways for directing selected fluid flow to locations of use such as to shower heads.

Abstract: This is an internet application closely related to aerobics. The fundamental idea is based on offering an on-line aerobics lesson. A web-site will be able to connect people throughout the globe and provide an on-line aerobics lesson. In general a web-camera will monitor an aerobics instructor giving a lesson, a software package will isolate his/her image and transfer it onto the web-site. People connected to this web-site will be able to view him/her. With the use of virtual helmets they will have a virtual reality vision. At the same time users will be monitored individually by a web-camera. Identically, their image will be isolated and transferred to the processing unit. All these images will be thence transferred to the web-site; subsequently, this web-site will contain a number of individual users' images and an aerobics instructor image. This virtual environment is now an aerobics class, taking place in the internet.

IPC: F16H47/04
Filed: 2001-07-03
Abstract: A torque split power transmission comprises a planetary gear 3 and an infinitely variable transmission 5 which may be mechanical, electrical or hydrostatic. A first drive line comprises a sun wheel 7 of the planetary gear 3 coupled to an output shaft 4 and a second drive line consists of a ring gear 8 of the planetary gear 3 connected, via gearing 9, to a drive shaft 10 of the infinitely variable transmission 5. Drive shaft 10 has a locking device 12 which frictionally or positively couples the drive shaft 10 to a housing of the transmission. A driven shaft 13 is provided at a downstream end of the infinitely variable transmission 5 and is connected to the output shaft 4 by gearing 14.

Title: Fluid storage arrangement for minimising fluid leakage
Inventor: MURRAY PATRICK JAMES
IPC: F24D3/10
Filed: 2001-08-29
Abstract: A simple modification to a fluid storage system e.g. a central heating system involves incorporating a float member 21 in the header tank 10. The float member is connected to the inside of the tank 10 and floats on or near the surface of the fluid 11 in the tank 10. The tank 10 has an inlet 18 and an outlet 12. A plug 22 is supported on the float member 21. In the event of a sudden fluid leakage in the system the level of the fluid 11 in the tank 10 falls quickly, the float member falls with the fluid, dislodging the plug 22 therefrom. The plug 22 is carried with the fluid in to the outlet 12 of the tank 10, blocking it and substantially preventing further fluid loss therefrom. This minimises the volume of fluid escaping and hence any damage caused is kept to a minimum.
