Title: Frequency discovery and failover
Inventor: THOMPSON DONALD R III
IPC: H03J1/00
Filed: 2003-12-05
Abstract: Described is a communication system including wireless client
devices. In the described system, the client devices may be wrist-worn watches such
as are in common use today, except that the watches are specially configured to
receive transmissions from broadcast towers. A client device is associated with one
or more home service regions, and is configured to receive personal messages on a
home channel when in the home service region. The client device employs a self-assignment
method to identify and select a home channel without the need for
interaction by a user. A tower discovery method is employed to identify broadcast
towers and available channels within a service region. A failover method is
employed to identify a change in the broadcast system, and take appropriate action
such as, for example, changing to another broadcast tower, selecting another
frequency, selecting a sleep mode, as well as others

Abstract: The present invention relates to a conveying apparatus comprising an
endless conveyor, a frame (1) for mounting the conveyor thereon, the frame
being comprised of basic structural elements which extend in substantially
three directions, viz. length, width and height, and of fixing elements, such
as screws and nuts, wherein the basic structural elements comprise five
types:
     a longitudinal structural element (10),   a stabilizer element (11), slidably fitting into at least two longitudinal
structural elements placed behind each other,   a transverse structural element (12),   a pillar element (13), and   a mounting block (111), for mounting and mutually positioning the longitudinal
structural elements, the transverse structural elements, and the pillar
elements, wherein at least the longitudinal structural elements and the
transverse structural elements are generally lengthwise extending
cylindrical material pieces, for instance hollow tubes or massive tubes, the
cross section possessing a non-circularly symmetrical circumference, fitting
with a close fit into corresponding recesses (10',12') in the mounting blocks.   
     In particular, the tangent line to the circumference runs horizontally in at
most two points thereof, so that the edges slope up/down gradually,
substantially without notches. 
     With great advantage, such a frame is assembled from recurrent and
readily expandable modules, such a frame has a high strength and stability,
and is properly cleanable, specifically owing to the sloping edges and the
close fit of the parts used.

Abstract: In a combination weighing device (101), weight
measurement devices (115a,116a) are respectively connected
to pool hoppers (115) and weighing hoppers (116). When the
results of a combination calculation indicate that a
combination is not complete, a control unit determines
whether or not a total value of a weight value from
predetermined weighing hoppers (116) and a weight value
from pool hoppers (115) that supply articles to the weight
hoppers exceeds a predetermined value. Thus, an over-scale
state in the weighing hoppers can be avoided by supplying
additional articles stored in the pool hoppers to the
weighing hoppers. The present invention provides a
combination weighing device that is capable of improving
operational efficiency.

Filed: 2005-02-16
Abstract: An electronic control system mounted on an automobile,
such as a motor-assisted power steering system, includes a
commanding unit (31, 32, 33) for calculating a command value and
a driving unit (13, 22) for driving an actuator (115, 212)
according to the command value. The commanding unit and the
driving unit are communicably connected to each other through a
communication bus (41). The command value is calculated in
response to an order to calculate sent from the driving unit (13,
22) and is transmitted to the driving unit. The driving unit
detects abnormality or malfunction in the commanding unit (31,
32, 33) by comparing the transmitted command value with data
pre-stored in the driving unit. If a command value sent from one
of the commanding units is found to be incorrect, the actuator
(115, 212) is driven without using the incorrect command value.
