Abstract: A method, system and apparatus that may be used for transferring a fluid such as molten metal, pure water, chemical liquid, and the like are disclosed. None of the functional mechanical parts or elements such as mechanical valves that require the mechanical motions, i.e., rotary, sliding, or other like motions are not included, and the fluid transferring and/or branching functions are instead implemented. 
     The fluid transfer apparatus includes a fluid storing chamber, an air inlet/outlet means connected to the upper end of the fluid storing chamber, an inlet pipe having its open upper end connected to one lateral wall of the fluid storing chamber and having its open bottom end extending into the fluid being transferred through which the fluid is drawn into the fluid storing chamber by decreasing the pressure in the fluid storing chamber, and a U-shape outlet pipe through which the drawn fluid in the fluid storing chamber is transferred by increasing the pressure in the fluid storing chamber, wherein a part of the drawn fluid is allowed to remain in the U-shape outlet pipe when the pressure in the fluid storing chamber is decreased, and the other hand a part of the drawn fluid is further allowed to remain in the bottom end of the inlet pipe when the pressure in the fluid storing chamber is increased.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a digital data error correcting apparatus in which an error correction capability can be considerably improved in a digital signal transmission system when a digital modulation code is decoded. In a minimum distance decoding method, when a plurality of reference samples having equal minimum Hamming distance relative to a digital modulation code exist, on the basis of the probability that an error will occur in the respective bits, respective bits are weighted, and a reference sample having the minimum distance from the input sample is selected from a plurality of reference samples to thereby correct an error. Further, the present invention is directed to a digital sync. detection apparatus in which an ability for detecting a sync. pattern can be considerably improved without degrading the probability that a pseudo-sync. signal will occur. A detection interval of a predetermined cycle is set in a sync. pattern of a predetermined cycle whose Hamming distance between it and a digital modulation code is larger than k by a detection window signal generator circuit (40), and (k -1) bit error of the sync. pattern can be corrected during this detection interval.

Abstract: The method and system of the present invention may be employed to capture and utilize customer selected combinations of sales features and feature variants in a computer based manufacturing system. Nonconflicting combinations of sales features and variants are presented to a customer and are utilized to create an End Item Configuration list which lists those components and variations of components which are necessary to manufacture a configuration of a complex product which includes the customer selected features. Production features are indirectly selected by the utilization of key words during customer sales features selection. Upon the promotion of a customer quotation to the status of order, a contract configuration of the product bill of material is automatically created. A combination of a basic bill of material and a selected configuration list may be utilized to permit engineering changes to be supported and tracked by an identified configuration independent of engineering changes for other configurations.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of controlling the minimal distance between successive errors in digital radio transmissions when multilevel modulations are used. With such a method the errors are spaced according to the needs, with an extremely reduced use of hardware with respect to prior art techniques. The method is characterized in that, in transmission a differential delay, i.e. different from flow to flow, is applied to each parallel flow not yet modulated, and in reception a delay also differential is applied to each demodulated flow in such a way that the overall delay applied to each flow, i.e. the sum of the delay applied in transmission and the delay applied in reception,is constant and equal for all the flows.
