Patent EP-1547824-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STARINSHAK THOMAS WALTER
IPC: B60C19/00
Filed: 2004-12-17
Abstract: An antenna system and method for tire monitoring systems provides an
elasticized substrate in combination with an antenna wire(s). The antenna
cable (32) can be wrapped around or otherwise applied to the elasticized
substrate (36), preferably in a wave or sinusoidal configuration. When
subjected to forces of external origin, the substrate (36) can elongate while the
antenna wire straightens. Upon release from the influence of such forces,
residual spring forces within the elasticized substrate relax and return the
substrate (36) and the antenna cable (32) carried thereby back to its original,
optimal configuration. The pitch of the antenna material on the substrate may
be customized to suit the needs of the particular tire and communication. The
antenna may be sewn or woven into the elasticized fabric, helically wound
around a core composed of such material, or attached in an alternative manner.

IPC: E05C7/04

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly (1) for use as an aluminium door nose (2) for
mounting on live (3) and slave door parts of a French door (5).
The locking means two spaced shoot bolts (9) and an intermediate latch (10) all operated on
rotation of the handle means which, by suitable mechanism including a bodily
reciprocable shiftable elongate member (13), is operable to both latch and lock the live (3)
and slave (4) door parts together. To that end, the elongate member (13) has spaced blind
holes (14) in the form of through apertures, which are in the lockable position aligned
with their respective associated shoot bolts (9). 
     The member (13) defines the through apertures (14). When the handle is turned to latch
the slave door via the latch (10), this action "throws" the elongate member. 
     If the latching action is properly achieved, the apertures (14) are aligned with the
associated shoot bolts (9), and the bolts (9) are then actuated to be shot and to engage
behind keepers in the French door, so locking the door parts (3,4) together. If latching is
not properly achieved, then the member (13) is not thrown far enough to clear the bolts
(9), which then are prevented from being thrown by abutment means forming part of the
rear surface of the member (13) adjacent the respective apertures. The door parts (3,4)
thus remain clearly unlocked until the latch is properly engaged, which allows the bolts
(9) to be shot and the French doors locked securely.

formed on a cylindrical lower portion of the handle and interacts with the locking surface of the
handle bracket so that the handle may be locked into an upright position.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant d'interroger un échantillon présentant une rotation moléculaire. Ce procédé consiste à placer l'échantillon dans un récipient présentant une protection aussi bien magnétique qu'électromagnétique, après quoi un bruit gaussien est injecté dans l'échantillon. Un signal électromagnétique dans le domaine temporel composé d'un rayonnement source de l'échantillon superposé sur le bruit gaussien injecté est détecté, lequel signal est utilisé pour générer une représentation spectrale qui présente, pour un réglage de puissance sélectionné de la source de bruit gaussien, des composantes spectrales basse fréquence caractéristiques de l'échantillon dans une gamme de fréquences sélectionnée allant de CC à 50 kHz. Dans un mode de réalisation, la représentation spectrale qui est générée est un histogramme d'événements de résonance stochastique sur la gamme de fréquences sélectionnée. A partir de ce spectre, une ou plusieurs composantes de signal basse fréquence qui sont caractéristiques de l'échantillon interrogé sont identifiées.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et des appareils permettant de mettre en oeuvre diverses configurations de striplines coplanaires (CPS), notamment des oscillateurs d'ondes stationnaires (SWO) mettant en oeuvre des striplines coplanaires (CPS). On peut citer, par exemple, un oscillateur d'ondes stationnaires (SWO) à striplines coplanaires en quart d'onde (?/4). Dans une autre mise en oeuvre, on utilise une configuration de striplines coplanaires en boucle fermée. Dans divers modes de réalisation, des oscillateurs SWO sont conçus pour optimiser les performances sinusoïdales à des fréquences élevées avec une faible dissipation de puissance, grâce à l'incorporation de diverses caractéristiques augmentant considérablement le facteur de qualité Q de l'oscillateur. Plus précisément, dans un mode de réalisation, un schéma d'amplification distribuée sur mesure dépendante de l'amplitude est mis en oeuvre comme technique de commande de mode, au moyen de plusieurs amplificateurs possédant divers gains le long de la longueur de la stripline coplanaire. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, une stripline coplanaire conçue de manière que sa résistance par longueur unitaire R et sa conductance par longueur unitaire G soient des fonctions discrètes ou continues de la position le long de la stripline coplanaire est utilisée aux fins de réduction des pertes d'un oscillateur SWO. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, une amélioration du facteur de qualité Q est obtenue et la vitesse de phase des ondes se propageant dans l'oscillateur SWO est réduite en même temps, facilitant ainsi la fabrication de dispositifs relativement plus petits. Encore dans un autre mode de réalisation, des oscillateurs SWO sont conçus avec une adaptabilité de fréquence également optimisée de manière à réduire la dissipation de puissance et à faciliter en même temps des réglages importants de la fréquence de l'oscillateur.
