Title: Heat exchanger and method of manufacturing the heat exchanger
Inventor: YAMAMOTO TETSUYA
IPC: F28F1/32
Filed: 2002-06-06
Granted: 2011-03-09
Abstract: A heat exchanger, wherein a weld part (111a) is provided at a portion displaced from bent parts (111b) where stress concentration is liable to occur, whereby an excessive stress caused at the weld part when a tube is expanded can be suppressed and, since the stress produced at the weld part when the tube is expanded is prevented from surpassing the proof stress (allowable stress) of the weld part even if the proof stress (mechanical strength) of the weld part is lowered by the softening of the weld part at the time of welding, a weld tube can be used for a radiator formed by mechanically connecting tubes (111) to fins (112) by expanding the tubes, and the production cost of the tubes can be reduced less than that when seamless tubes are used for the tubes.

Abstract: A Ferraris sensor for measuring an acceleration of a moving body along a direction. The sensor includes a flat eddy current body and a scanning head arranged on one side of the eddy current body. The scanning head includes N magnets that generate an external magnetic field that extends approximately perpendicular to a surface of the eddy current body, wherein N=1, 2, 3, . . . and M detector coils, wherein M=1, 2, 3, 4, . . . and each detector coil includes an axis and detects changes of an interior magnetic field within the N magnets that are caused by an acceleration of the eddy current body and a resulting change in eddy currents. The axis is approximately perpendicular with respect to the surface of the eddy current body, each detector coil lacks a ferromagnetic core and the N magnets and the M detector coils are arranged alternatingly next to each other in a direction that the acceleration is to be measured.

Abstract: Metallocene catalyzed polyethylenes are found to have improved physical properties, improved processability and improved balance of properties. Surprisingly, there is a direct relationship between MD shrinkage, and MD tear. Additionally, MD tear is greater than TD tear, and MD tear is also greater than intrinsic tear. MD tear to TD tear ratios are above 0.9, and dart drop impact is above 500 g/mil. The polyethylenes have a relatively broad composition distribution and relatively broad molecular weight distribution.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for controlling congestion control in a packet data communication network in which a plurality of data is transmitted from a source node to a destination node. Depending on the congestion state in the network, the sender rate at which the source node is transmitting the data is adjusted based on the congestion feedback information and the bandwidth capacity of the network. The adjustment of the sender rate is performed according to predetermined criteria to establish a maximum data transmission rate and maximum fairness for the source.

Abstract: A constant velocity joint has outer and inner joint members formed with aligned ball grooves. A torque-transmitting ball is contained in each set of grooves and is captured within windows of a cage disposed between the joint members. The radial groove profile provides a large operating joint angle but with a relatively low Rx ratio. At zero joint angle the balls are positioned in a ball center plane and define a ball center radius (BCR) in the ball center plane. As the joint angulates, the balls roll on the grooves and, while maintained in a ball plane, are displaced radially relative to the ball center radius (BCR). Rx=BCR/x, which is the ball displacement. The groove profile includes a straight section coupled with a double arc or polynomial curved section which attains high joint angle at a relatively low Rx ratio.

Abstract: A method for tuning a spring element (106) used in a resonant driving system for an appliance such as a power toothbrush, which includes a work piece and which has a driving frequency, includes the step of measuring the frequency dependent amplitude of the work piece, which vibrates by means of operation of the spring element, wherein the measured frequency of the appliance is either above or below a driving frequency. Furthermore, the spring rate of the spring element is changed, as a result of which its resonant frequency is changed, sufficiently that it closely approximates the driving frequency of the appliance. In a situation in which the spring rate of the spring element is decreased, this can be done by removing a portion of the spring element.
