Abstract: On décrit une technique visant à limiter le décrochage tournant et les crêtes dans un compresseur. Dans une turbine à gaz, l'asymétrie de pression statique est détectée au niveau d'une pluralité d'endroits situés le long de la circonférence de l'entrée du compresseur. On estime également la vitesse de changement temporel du flux massique dans le compresseur, à l'aide de mesures de pression effectuées dans le compresseur. Un processeur de signaux utilise ces signaux pour moduler une soupape de purge du compresseur, laquelle est sensible au niveau d'asymétrie de l'écoulement et à la vitesse de changement temporel de l'écoulement moyen dans un espace annulaire, et augmenter ainsi la capacité de fonctionnement du compresseur.

Abstract: A belt type continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a planetary gear unit are composed in a continuously variable transmission system for an automobile to deliver an output from the output shaft in the normal and reverse directions with a neutral position therebetween. A control mechanism with a hydraulic circuit controls hydraulic pressure of primary and secondary hydraulic servos for controlling axial forces applying to respective primary and secondary pulleys of the belt type continuously variable transmission. When an axial force difference is produced between the primary pulley and the secondary pulley, the belt type continuously variable transmission changes its speed corresponding to a torque transmission direction and normal and reverse rotation directions. When axial forces of the primary and secondary pulleys come to be equal, then the belt type continuously variable transmission self-converges so that the output shaft becomes the non-drive state and is stably held at the neutral position without a driving starter device and a normal and reverse rotation switching device.

Filed: 1996-05-03
Abstract: The method involves an appts. including a signal source and a signal analysis unit. A combined signal is formed from the original static signal null level and the drift. The combined signal serves as a dynamic signal null level in a signal source and/or a signal analysis unit. The dynamic level may be formed by a single or multiple stage averaging process. Alternatively, it may be formed by a sliding averaging process or by an up or down counting process. The dynamic signal null level may be formed by one or a combination of any of the above processes. It may be corrected in dependence on the deviation from the target value.

Abstract: A graphics processor for rasterizing graphics data using display list programming to a host computer system memory. The processor dynamically rasterizes the display list generated by a host processor to either graphics memory local to the graphics processor or to the host system memory. The graphics processor of the present invention includes a prefetch unit having instruction prefetch logic for prefetching and decoding next opcode instructions in a display list of instructions from system memory. Prefetching a next instruction eliminates steup time necessary to fetch subsequent opcode instructions after a first opcode instruction has been fetched. The next opcode instruction in a sequential display list of instructions is prefetched with parameter data associated with the first fetched opcode instructions to save the graphics processor extra instruction fetch cycle time necessary to fetch subsequent opcode instructions. The graphics processor further includes a bus mastering unit which allows the graphics processor to master the host computer system bus during the transfer of display list instructions from host computer system memory and the subsequent processing of these instructions in an uninterrupted mode.

initial assembly of the relay (10). The structure includes an
adjustment member (34) insertable between a bobbin (22) and a core (24).
The adjustment member (34) is preferably U-shaped having arms (38,40)
straddling the core (24) and a backspan (36) which acts as a stop
to define the travel of an armature (26). A method of
initially adjusting the relay (10) includes inserting the
adjustment member (34) between the bobbin (22) and the core (24) and
moving the armature (26) into engagement with the backspan (36).
The adjustment member (34) is driven between the bobbin (22) and
core (24) and permanently fixed in place when the desired
parameters have been attained. An alternative method
includes providing a relay having a motor assembly,
including a bobbin and core, which may be moved about a
pivot point in the relay. The armature is forced against
the motor assembly until the desired design parameters
are obtained and the motor assembly is then permanently
fixed in place within the relay. A further alternative
method includes providing a relay having a bobbin fixed
with respect to the relay and a core movable within a
bore of the bobbin. An armature is forced against the
core moving it within the bore of the bobbin until the
desired parameters have been obtained. Thereafter, the
core is permanently fixed in position within the bore of
the bobbin.

Abstract: A lightweight wheelchair has adjustable wheel camber, adjustable toe-in/toe-out
positions, and front-to-rear adjustment of a wheel assembly relative to a frame
(40a,40b). The wheel camber is changed by removable camber tubes (50a,50b)
having plugs (54) in opposite ends with different angular relationships. Each camber
tube (50a,50b) can be removed from an axle tube (22), rotated through one hundred
eighty degrees, and reinserted to change the wheel camber. The location of the
angular recesses in the camber plugs (54) addresses minor toe-in/toe-out adjustments
while rotation of the axle tube (22) provided with indicia (82a,82b,84a,84b) ensures
that proper toe-in/toe-out adjustment is provided for larger wheel camber adjustments.
The front to rear location of the wheels relative to the frame can be adjusted via a
single fastener (30a,30b) on each side. The track width of the rear wheels can be
adjusted in response to the change in wheel camber by changing the extent of
insertion of the camber tubes (50a,50b) into the axle tube (22).

Abstract: The teaching of this invention pertains particularly to
satellite communications systems using GSO or NGSO satellites
(50a). This invention employs data derived from signals of
various types to derive a mathematical model of propagation
related attenuation-inducing events so as to plan system
resource allocation to minimize an amount of power required
to close communication links between user terminals and the
satellites. Disclosed are methods for modelling gateway (6)
to satellite links, as well as methods for modelling the user
terminal to satellite links. This invention overcomes the
problems inherent in the prior art by providing a direct
measurement of severe path attenuation potential. The use of
the teaching of this invention enables preplanning of the
allocation of satellites and satellite resources by
calculating a potential for signal path interference based on
an external measurement of where rain attenuation may be
located, and the real-time or approximately real-time
tracking of rain cell activity within storm cells.
Optimization of a global system of satellites is made
possible, particularly in the context of a system of LEO
satellites.

Abstract: A two speed transfer case assembly includes a
planetary gear speed reduction assembly, a shift sleeve
for selecting either reduced speed drive through the
planetary gear assembly or direct drive from the
transfer case input. The planet carrier of the speed
reduction assembly includes a band brake disposed
thereabout. A linear actuator selectively, adjustably
tightens the band brake to control retardation of the
planet carrier thereby controlling the speed of the
carrier and thus the output of the planetary gear
assembly. This configuration cancels the drag torque
typically applied to the input of a transfer case from
the associated automatic transmission and minimizes or
eliminates the relative rotation between the shifting
elements in the transfer case allowing smoother shifts.
When fully engaged, the planetary carrier brake can
also serve as a wet parking brake.

combustion engine (2) and at least one catalyst (6)
capable of reducing harmful substances present in the
exhaust gas, in the exhaust pipe upstream of the
adsorbent (4). A second catalyst (8) capable of
reducing harmful substances present in the exhaust gas
is downstream of the adsorbent (4). A first inlet (14)
for secondary air into the exhaust gas is provided
upstream of the second catalyst (8) and a second inlet
(16) for secondary air into the exhaust gas is provided
between the first catalyst (6) and the second catalyst
(8). The method includes secondary air from the first
inlet for a period from engine start to the activation
of the first catalyst at the time when the first
catalyst has been activated, stopping the introduction
of secondary air from the first inlet; meanwhile,
introducing secondary air from the second inlet while
hydrocarbons are desorbed from the adsorbent (4) with
the temperature rise of the adsorbent by the heat of
the exhaust gas. This method can effectively purify
the hydrocarbons discharged in a large amount during
the cold start, without adversely affecting the
purification of NOx also discharged.
