Patent EP-1334612-B1 (EP)
Inventor: NORTRUP KEVIN EUGENE
IPC: H04N5/46

Abstract: L'invention concerne un récepteur de signaux de télévision, en particulier un récepteur de signaux de satellite, pouvant recevoir et traiter des signaux de télévision entrants, et déterminer automatiquement quel standard de signaux de télévision utiliser pour la sortie, en fonction d'un paramètre de l'alimentation électrique ou de l'électricité fournie. La fréquence et la tension de l'électricité constituent des paramètres mesurables qui peuvent être utilisés afin de déterminer s'il est plus probable que le standard de signaux de télévision NTSC soit utilisé en tant que préférence locale plutôt que le standard PAL (PAL-M ou PAL-N). Une fois le standard déterminé, le récepteur de télévision code automatiquement les signaux de télévision reçus dans le format adéquat pour la sortie. La présente invention part du principe que le standard de télévision local coïncide d'une certaine manière avec la fréquence et la tension de la ligne d'alimentation locale.

Abstract: A device for controlling the variation of the opening and closing times and durations of a valve ( 8 ) comprises an elastic means ( 18 ) acting upon an assembly consisting of a lever device ( 1 ) and a valve stem ( 11 ) not in the closing direction but in the opening direction of the valve ( 8 ). The assembly consisting of the lever device ( 1 ) and of the opening cam ( 5 ) and the closing cam ( 6 ) fulfils a dual function, one for opening the valve ( 8 ), the other for moving it back for its closure. The control device, which comprises a device for offsetting the angular position of the cam position relative to the crankshaft, allows to control the opening and closing duration of the valve ( 8 ) over a very wide range extending, for opening, from 210° to 350° of crankshaft rotation approximately, by varying the valve opening and closing times independently of each other. It is applicable to a wide range of engines.

Abstract: Un moteur à combustion interne comprend un carter et un vilebrequin monté verticalement dans le carter. Le vilebrequin présente une extrémité s'étendant à l'extérieur de la partie inférieure du carter permettant la fixation à un outil primaire, tel qu'une lame de tondeuse à gazon, lequel est entraîné par le moteur. Une autre extrémité du vilebrequin s'étend à l'extérieur de la partie supérieure du carter et présente un accouplement permettant de raccorder un dispositif accessoire. Le dispositif accessoire peut être fixé en permanence ou amovible au moteur. De préférence, un couvercle recouvre la partie supérieure du carter et présente une surface extérieure d'où s'étend un puits en direction du carter. L'accouplement est saillant dans le puits mais il ne s'étend pas à l'extérieur au-delà de la surface extérieure du couvercle, de manière que le puits protège ainsi l'accouplement rotatif contre un contact accidentel avec l'utilisateur du matériel sur lequel le moteur est monté. Une coiffe peut aussi fermer le puits lorsqu'un dispositif accessoire n'est pas relié à l'accouplement pour protéger davantage contre un contact accidentel.
