Abstract: The combustion chamber has two stages (1,2) in series in the gas flow direction. On the head side of the first stage, there is a mixer (100) which forms a fuel-air mixture. Downstream of this mixer there is a catalyser (3), in which the mixture is fully burnt. The mixture is such that an adiabatic flame temp. of between 800 and 1100 deg. C is maintained. Downstream of the catalyser there are vortex generators (200), producing an intensively swirled flow. Downstream of these, fuel (9) is injected and self-combustion takes place. A cross-section step (12), marking the beginning of the second stage, provides a stabilising backflow of the flame front (21). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a rubber tire composed of carbon black reinforced rubber carcass and having a rubber tread which is quantitatively reinforced with an electrically non conductive filler pigment such as, for example silica, and which, in turn, is at least partially, and preferably substantially, enveloped by carbon reinforced rubber of a consistent, or continuous, composition. 
     In one aspect, said rubber layer extends across at least a portion of the outer surface of the tread which is normally intended to be ground-contacting and envelops both the ends and optionally an inner surface of a tire tread, which may be a tread cap (7) of a tread of cap/base construction. 
     The said rubber layer connects with at least one other carbon black reinforced rubber component of the tire in a manner to provide a path of reduced electrical resistance from said layer on the outer surface of the tread to the bead portion of the tire carcass and, therefore, such a path from the vehicle to a road surface. 
     In one aspect, it is envisioned that the tread construction may be a dual extrusion of (i) said tread rubber, and (ii) said rubber layer composed of tread wings (8) and associated rubber layer extension (9) over the outer surface of the tread.

Abstract: A frequency modulated-continuous wave (FM-CW) radar system for detecting a range, relative speed, and direction to a target. To this end, a beat signal generator (17), first and second signal distributors (11,13,15,23), a beat signal frequency detector (19), a beat signal amplitude level detector (19), and at least one pair of antennas (18a-d) are provided. Each antenna (18a,c) of each pair has the same directivity, is set to radiate a beam in a slightly different direction from the beam radiated by the other antenna (18b,d), and is set to receive a return beam from a target. The first signal distributor (11,12,22) distributes an FM signal having a frequency varying with time to each of said antennas successively and repeatedly. The second signal distributor (11,13,23) distributes a reference FM signal to a first set of input terminals of the beat signal generator (17) successively and repeatedly. The reference signal has a frequency different from that of the FM signal, and the frequency difference is created by shifting both frequencies by different amounts or delaying both signals by different amounts. The beat signal generator (17) generates beat signals by mixing the reference signal and a signal indicative of the return beam. The frequency detector (19) detects the frequency of at least one of the generated beat signals and converts the frequency to provide an indication of a range to the target, and the beat signal amplitude detector (19) converts a ratio of the beat signal levels to provide an indication of a direction to the target.

Abstract: A semiconductor device comprises an Si substrate (1), a stress absorbing layer (2) comprising GaAs and disposed on the Si substrate (1), a compound buffer layer (3) having a composition of Al x Ga 1-x-y In y N (0 ≤ x ≤ 1, 0 ≤ y ≤ 1) and disposed on the stress absorbing layer (2), and a compound semiconductor layer (4) having a composition of Al x Ga 1-x-y In y N (0 ≤ x ≤ 1, 0 ≤ y ≤ 1) and disposed on the buffer layer (3). Therefore, the buffer layer (3) protects the GaAs stress absorbing layer (2) from high temperatures during the formation of the compound semiconductor layer (4), whereby the stress absorbing layer (2) is prevented from decomposition. As a result, a stress due to lattice mismatch or thermal stress between the Si substrate (1) and the compound semiconductor layer (4) is absorbed in the GaAs stress absorbing layer (2) having a lowest bulk modulus, whereby the compound semiconductor layer (4) with reduced dislocations is grown on the buffer layer (3) and bending of the Si substrate (1) is prevented.

Abstract: The diagnostic system of the present invention monitors and accumulates the thermal signatures or characteristics during at least one operational mode of the cooking appliance. These thermal signatures or characteristics are collected-through the same temperature sensor used to regulate the temperature of the cooking appliance-and then stored in, for example, a look-up table. Advantageously, this may be accomplished without the need of special sensors or interface boards. The thermal signatures or characteristics may include first order or higher order temperature gradients, as well as temperature profiles. The stored thermal signatures provide a baseline from which the diagnostic system can detect and identify whether the cooking appliance is working under normal operating conditions.

Abstract: A method and system for digital resolution translation. An
input frequency is received, as is a desired output frequency.
The desired output frequency is measured directly and compared
with the input frequency. The output frequency is then adjusted
to compensate for variations in the input frequency, which can
be done with an arbitrary relationship between the input and
output frequencies as necessary. The system sets up an
execution loop (54) and when the loop count reaches a
predetermined threshold, the adjusted output frequency is sent
to a system as an operating signal. The system then resets the
counters to zero and begins executing loops again. The system
continues to cycle until no input frequency is received.

Abstract: A complex multiplier 5 complex-multiplies base band signals x and y
obtained from a receive signal by local oscillation signals c and s, to output
complex detection signals p and q. A phase difference detecting portion 7
outputs the amount of the detected phase difference corresponding to the
phase difference between the phase of the receive signal and the phase of
the local oscillation signals. A loop filter 8 emphasizes its DC component.
A local oscillation portion 6 outputs local oscillation signals having a
frequency corresponding to the amount of the detected phase difference.
A region judging portion 9 judges which of regions on a complex plane is
one to which the base band signals belong, and outputs a region signal. A
most frequent region judging portion 10 judges which of the regions is one
in which the base band signals are concentrated most frequently upon input
of the region signal a predetermined number of times. An initial phase
generator 11 generates an initial phase corresponding to a most frequent
region. The local oscillation portion 6 sets the initial phase as an initial
value of the phase of the local oscillation signals. It is first judged which of
the regions previously obtained by division on the complex plane is one in
which the complex base band signals are concentrated most frequently, and
the initial value of the phase of the local oscillation signals is set on the
basis of the results of the judgment, so that a carrier can be reproduced in
simple construction while preventing a hang-up phenomenon.

Abstract: This invention provides an electronic component sucking
method in which the movement of a component supply table (15)
can be increased without increasing tact time, thereby
improving the mounting efficiency of electronic components (2,

of the component supply table (15) is set on the basis of the
height of an electronic component (2, 4) in order that the
interlock time for a low electronic component (4) can be set
to be shorter and the movement enabled period of the component
supply table (15) can be set to be longer. Therefore, a low
electronic component (4) can have a shorter tact time, thereby
improving the overall mounting efficiency of electronic
