Inventor: SAAKE MARK
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2002-09-20
Abstract: A computer system configured to store a plurality of files, and a data file, which includes inode and migration or purge information associated with the files. The computer system searches the data file to identify files that are candidates for migration or purge. A plurality of pathnames associated with the files is stored in the data file or a separate data file, and the computer system obtains the pathnames of candidate files from the data file (or separate data file). When candidate files are identified, their inodes are used to look up their pathnames in the plurality of pathnames. The data file may include information about whether a file has been modified and its time of last access. To determine whether a file is a candidate for migration, its entry in the data file is checked to determine whether it has been modified. If it has, it is identified as a migration candidate. A file is determined to be a purge candidate if it has not been modified and its time of last access is older than a predetermined value.

Abstract: Triggering haptic sensations based on sound output from a computer device. A portion of sound data is stored that is output to a user as audio from an application program running on a computer. The portion of sound data is analyzed using intelligent heuristics to extract at least one sound feature from the sound data. The execution of at least one haptic effect is triggered based on the sound feature, where the haptic effect is commanded to the haptic feedback device approximately correlated to the output of the portion of sound to the user as audio. The haptic effect causes a haptic sensation to be output to the user. Different haptic effects can be associated with different sound features, frequency ranges, amplitudes, etc.

Abstract: Provided are a carburized and hardened member that allows strength
enhancement while sufficiently reducing the hardening strain, without increasing the
production cost, and a production method for the carburized and hardened member.
An alloy steel which contains Fe as a main component and contains 0.10 to 0.50 wt.%
of C and 0.50 to 1.50 wt.% of Si and whose hardenability J based on an end quenching
test is in a range of 35 to 50 (at 12.5 mm) is used as a raw material. After the material
is formed into a member of a desired shape, a carburized layer is formed by performing
a carburizing process in an oxidation inhibitive atmosphere. After the carburizing
process, a quenching process is performed in a condition that cooling is monotonously
performed from a pearlite transformation point (A1 point) to a martensite
transformation start point (Ms point), and a condition that a severity of quenching H is
in a range of 0.01 to 0.08 (cm -1 ).

Abstract: In the present invention a completely different approach for modeling of non-linear devices or processes is used. A cascade of blocks each depending on a non-linearity parameter are utilized both in non-linear modeling and a pre-distorter design. The new non-linear model description can be used for characterization of a non-linear system or for linearizing a non-linear system. Application to a Communications System Multi-carrier Amplifier is shown as an application example. Also for other application areas of the new mathematical method is feasible echo-canceling, non-linear communications channels etc. Parameter extractions and tables for the new model do not give multiple dimensional mathematical solutions for parameter extractions as in prior art.

Title: Fishing-reel sounding device
Inventor: KITAJIMA KEIGO
IPC: A01K89/016

Abstract: A first sounding mechanism, which issues sound when
a spool (4) rotates relative to spool shaft (15), is
furnished with a sound-emitting member (81), a pawl
member (82), and a plate spring (83). The sound-emitting
member (81) is non-rotatably mounted on the spool shaft,
and has multiple jags (81b) radially jutting on its outer
periphery. The pawl member has a body portion pivotably
mounted on the spool; the pawl portion formed on the
spool-shaft side of the swing center (SC); and an arcuate
contact face (82c) formed on the body portion on a side
of the swing center (SC) opposite the spool shaft. A
first-side radius (R1) of the contact face, is smaller
than its second-side radius (R2). The plate spring is
mounted on the spool at an end nearer the first side of
contact-face, and contacts the contact face at the other
end, urging the pawl portion of pawl member to collide
with the sound-emitting member. In a spinning-reel
sounding device having a pawl member, the tone
fluctuations due to spool rotational direction are
controlled.

Title: Ejector unit with elliptical gearwheel drive
Inventor: STILLHARD BRUNO
IPC: B29C45/40
Filed: 2003-02-14
Abstract: The invention relates to an ejector unit for the electrically-driven ejection of injection moulded pieces from injection moulds. According to the invention, the above may be achieved by the interposing of an elliptical gear drive. The elliptical gear drive can be arranged outside the driving means for the moving mould, which gives more space in the central region of the moving mould for an improved usage with the driving means thereof. The elliptical gearwheel drive has very similar gearing characteristics to a crank, however, with more precise limitation of the force on the driveshaft. Thus the advantages of a crank drive for the ejector unit can be used, with a greater saving of space in the valuable central region of the drive side of the moving mould.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel method of introducing a pay digital television
mechanism whereby the content broadcaster or operator does not require
a subscriber management infrastructure. According to the invention, the
user is not committed to the operator but instead freely acquires content access
time credit by means of an electronic transaction via a point of sale on the
Internet or a mobile phone message server. Another innovation of this invention
is that it avoids the need to constantly send validation and authentication
information specific to each user via the broadcast channel since said information
is managed by means of a secure transfer mechanism when the credit is
being purchased, with the time and content privileges acquired on the user
platform being stored. The saving made in relation to the bandwidth is considerable
when the number of users increases.

Automated web converting involves transporting, with use of a movable vacuum, an end portion of the membrane web from a first location to a second location. With use of respective first and second vacuums at the first and second locations, and after removal of the movable vacuum, the end portion of the membrane web is releasably secured at the first and second locations. The membrane web is cut within a gap defined between a single catalyst pattern of the membrane web end portion and an adjacent catalyst pattern to produce a membrane sheet. The membrane sheet is precisely positioned to a desired orientation to facilitate subsequent processing of the membrane sheet. The apparatus comprises a staying station, a positioning station, a cutter, a vision system, a robot and a controller.
