IPC: H01M8/065
Filed: 2002-07-03
Abstract: A generating system for a fuel cell, and
heat waste recirculating and cooling system of said generating system,
comprising: a water tank (162) for temporarily storing hot water generated by
the fuel cell (50), a heat exchanger (164) in thermal conductive communication with
an anode gas supply, and a pump (163) for pumping the hot water to the heat
exchanger, whereby heat energy of the hot water is used to heat the
anode gas supply for releasing anode gas, wherein water upon releasing
the heat energy is transported back to the fuel cell to reduce the
temperature of the fuel cell, thereby forming a heat waste recirculation.

Inventor: KISHITA HIROSHI
IPC: F25B45/00
Filed: 1998-07-30
Abstract: A refrigeration cycle is switched from a
refrigeration cycle circuit to a hot gas heater circuit
to make the hot gas discharged from a compressor flow
into an evaporator and heat the vehicle passenger
compartment, at which time, when a suction pressure (Ps)
of the compressor becomes a low pressure below a first
predetermined pressure, the discharge volume (Vc) of the
compressor is made larger to ensure a sufficient
auxiliary heating performance. Further, when the hot gas
is made to flow into the evaporator to heat the vehicle
passenger compartment, if the suction pressure (Ps) of
the compressor becomes a higher pressure over a second
predetermined pressure, the discharge volume (Vc) of the
compressor is made smaller to protect the refrigeration
cycle parts and lighten the ON, OFF shock.

Abstract: The invention provides a collision detecting apparatus for a vehicle,
including an integrating means (I) for cumulatively integrating an
output from an acceleration sensor (S) when the output exceeds a
specific calculation start level, and a collision detecting means (C)
for outputting a collision signal (X) when a cumulative integral value
(ΣG) calculated by the integrating means exceeds a threshold value
(α) wherein the collision detecting apparatus is intended to
accurately perform collision decision by preventing the occurrence of
erroneous detection based on a vibration waveform of acceleration of the
vehicle as a result of, for example, riding past a stepped portion. 
     The collision detecting apparatus includes a vibration waveform
detecting means (W) for detecting that an output waveform from the
acceleration sensor (S) is a specific periodical vibration wave form.
When the vibration waveform detecting means (W) detects the vibration
waveform, the integrating means does not stop the cumulative integration
even if the output (G) returns to a specific calculation end level
(G 0 ) and continues the cumulative integration for the output
(G) that contains not only an output component corresponding to a
negative acceleration but also an output component corresponding to a
positive acceleration.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of transferring and loading a reticle onto a receiving station (for example, a reticle exposure stage). The reticle is first retrieved from a storage facility with an end effector having an reticle plate coupled to a mounting plate. The mounting plate connects the end effector to a robotic arm. The reticle is aligned in an out-of-plane position in an off-line alignment station. The alignment is in compliance with the alignment requirement at the receiving station. The reticle is mounted onto the reticle plate after undergoing the alignment at the off-line alignment station. The reticle is then transferred from the off-line alignment station to the receiving station while maintaining the previous alignment at the off-line alignment station. The apparatus further provides rigidity of the mounted reticle to ensure compliance with the alignment requirement at the receiving station.

Abstract: The distortion component of an optical signal received from an optical transmission
system, such as an all-optical system, subject to noise and amplitude distortion components,
can be evaluated by a method that utilises information derived from analysing the bit error
ratio (BER) of the signal as a function of a movable threshold. The analysis is performed in
high and low bit error ratio areas of the eye diagram used for data one/zero decision making.
The intersections with the threshold axis (where BER=0.25) of extrapolations of the high and
low bit error ratio values provide variables V1 and V2 which are divided (V1/V2) to obtain an
estimate/prediction of the amplitude closure of the eye diagram resulting from amplitude
distortion. The analysis is preferably carried out after Q conversion of the BER values. The
method can also be extended to provide indications of Q, bit error ratio and optical signal-to-noise
ratio within the signal.
