Title: Condenser with a built-in receiver for a motor vehicle air conditioning unit
Inventor: BALTHAZARD PATRICK
IPC: F25B39/04
Filed: 1996-06-19
Abstract: A condenser for a cooling circuit conveying a refrigerant, including a bundle of tubes (12) mounted between a first collecting box (16) and a second collecting box (18), an inlet (22) for the gaseous refrigerant, an outlet (24) for the condensed refrigerant, and a reservoir (20) through which the refrigerant may flow. The reservoir is housed in the collecting box (16) and communicates via at least one aperture (52, 54) with a downstream portion (P3, P4) of the bundle on the outlet side (24) of the condenser. The condenser is useful for motor vehicle air conditioning.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil servant à assembler des composants métalliques de châssis de véhicule selon des techniques de soudage par impulsions magnétiques. Selon un premier mode de réalisation, un joint à chevauchement est obtenu par la réunion de deux sections individuelles (12, 13) d'un rail latéral à canal ouvert qui forment une partie d'un rail latéral de châssis de véhicule. La première section (12), légèrement sous-dimensionnée par rapport à la seconde (13), peut être insérée de manière télescopique dans cette dernière avec un certain jeu. Un métal d'interface neutre est pulvérisé au plasma ou à la flamme sur les surfaces adjacents des sections (12, 13). Un enroulement électromagnétique (50) génère un champ magnétique qui provoque le déplacement des sections (12, 13) l'une vers l'autre à une grande vitesse. L'impact dû à la vitesse élevée et les pressions importantes provoquent la soudure des deux sections (12, 13). Selon un second mode de réalisation, une paire d'éléments structuraux à canaux fermés est formée selon des techniques d'hydroformage. Les parties terminales des éléments hydroformés sont ensuite placées de manière concentrique à l'intérieur d'un enroulement électromagnétique qui les fait se déplacer l'une vers l'autre de sorte qu'elles se soudent.

Abstract: Bei einem Übertragungsverfahren wird ein aus einem Eingangssignal gebildetes Übertragungssignal zu einer Empfangseinheit übertragen und durch diese mittels eines Oszillatorsignals in ein Ausgangssignal umgesetzt. Die Umsetzung des Übertragungssignals in das Ausgangssignal erfolgt dabei mit einem Empfangsverfahren, bei dem das Ausgangssignal durch Phasenrauschbeiträge des Oszillatorsignals in Abhängigkeit von deren Frequenzlage unterschiedlich stark gestört wird. Das Oszillatorsignal wird mittels einer fractional-N-Phasenregelschleife aus einem Referenzsignal synthetisiert, dessen Referenzfrequenz gleich einem ganzzahligen Vielfachen einer Rasterfrequenz ist, wobei die Rasterfrequenz den kleinstmöglichen Frequenzabstand zwischen zwei synthetisierbaren Oszillatorfrequenzen darstellt. Phasenrauschbeiträge, die als Störlinien im Frequenzspektrum des Oszillatorsignals auftreten, werden durch eine geeignete Wahl der Rasterfrequenz in Frequenzbereiche gelegt, wo sie das Ausgangssignal nicht oder nur unwesentlich stören.

Abstract: Two methods for partitioning the work to be done by a computer program into smaller pieces so that checkpoints may be done more frequently. Initially, a parallel task starts with one or more input data sets having q initial partitions, divides the input data sets into p partitions by some combination of partitioning elements (i.e., partitioners/gatherers), runs an instance of a component program on each of the p partitions of the data, and produces one or more sets of output files, with each set being considered a partitioned data set. The invention is applied to such a task to create a new, "overpartitioned" task as follows: (1) the partitioner is replaced with an "overpartitioner" which divides its q inputs into n*p partitions, for some integer factor n; (2) the component program is run in a series of n execution phases, with p instances of the component program being run at any time. In each phase, each instance of the component program will read one overpartition of the input data and produce one partition of output data; (3) at the end of each of the n execution phases, the system is quiescent and may be checkpointed. A first embodiment explicitly overpartitions input data by using known partitioner programs, communication channels, and gatherer programs to produce overpartitioned intermediate files. The second embodiment dynamically overpartitions input data by arranging for the component programs to consecutively read contiguous subsets of the original input data.

Abstract: An apparatus for generating interpolator input data (41) for a color
space conversion from a RGB color space to a CMYK color space includes an
address generator (43) having eight outputs and a memory (42) having eight
inputs each connected to one of the address generator outputs. The inputs to
the address generator (43) are the three sets of four higher order bits, RH, GH,
and BH, of the twenty four bit RGB color space value and two bits for selecting
one of the dimensions in the CMYK space to which the conversion will be
directed. From these inputs, the address generator (43) can generate 19,652
addresses for accessing interpolator input data stored in the memory (42). The
address generator (43) simultaneously generates eight addresses for accessing
interpolator input data stored in the memory (42). The memory (42) is divided
into eight memory banks (42a-42h) with the interpolator input data assigned to
the eight memory banks (42a-42h) so that for any RGB color space input value,
the eight values used for interpolation in the conversion to one dimension of the
CMYK color space can be simultaneously accessed in the memory (42). The
apparatus for generating interpolator input data (41) uses a look-up table
expanded from 4096 to 4913 interpolation values for each of the dimensions of
the CMYK color space. The look-up table for all four dimensions of the CMYK
color space is stored in a memory (42) having a capacity of 19,652 bytes
partitioned into eight memory banks (42a-42h) ranging in size from 2048 bytes
to 2916 bytes. By using the expanded look-up table, interpolator input data can
be generated for the case in which the input RGB color space value lies on the
outer boundary of the RGB color space.

Abstract: An airbag inflator (10) with venturi effect cooling and gas supplement. The inflator includes a housing (14) having a quantity of gas-producing fuel (26) therein, and possibly a stored gas also, along with appropriate igniters (32). These materials are stored within a gas production chamber (24) of the housing. The gas leaving this chamber travels through the housing to an exit port (52) on the housing. Intermediate the gas production chamber and the housing exit port is a venturi section (38) of the housing. This section reduces the pressure of the gas, and thus the pressure at the interior end of draw vents (46) opening onto the venturi section. The vents therefore draw outside air into the housing to mix with the gas. This cools the gas to the desired temperature, and also supplements the gas exiting the housing. As such, the need for a heat sink to cool the gas is reduced or eliminated. Furthermore, since the cushion is inflated with a mixture of gas and air, the amount of gas typically needed is reduced by the amount of added air. This permits the amount of fuel to be reduced, thus reducing cost and weight.

Abstract: A unitarily formed diverter valve assembly for use in liquid
chromatography. The valve assembly comprises a plurality of
inlet and outlet ports, diverter valve systems, chambers, and a
tortuous network of passageways all of which are arranged to
accommodate the flow of fluids in a liquid chromatography system.
The valve assembly is configured so as to direct the flow of
fluid coming from an inlet port through the valve body where it
can then be reversibly directed into or out of a chromatography
column. On returning from the column, the fluid reenters the
valve assembly where it is directed to an outlet port in order to
exit the system. The valve assembly can also be configured so as
to bypass the column altogether. Since the entire valve assembly
is machined out of a single block of material having smooth
liquid passageways, and since all flow compartments are shared
and fully flushed when a flow-through valve is opened, dead-legs
are virtually eliminated from the system.
