Title: Electronic method and system for detection of conducting or dielectric environment with dielectric constant higher than that of air
Inventor: SZELA ZBIGNIEW
IPC: G01N27/22
Filed: 2004-01-21
Granted: 2010-01-26
Abstract: The method of detecting the presence of a conducting or dielectric environment with dielectric constant higher than that of air, of this invention, consists in counting the number of control signals (No), resulting from the relationship No = f(Qp, Qod, Ucc, Up, T), sent from the control system (US) as necessary to charge the capacitor (Cp) and then to discharge the previously-charged capacitor (Cp) to a threshold voltage (Up) preset by the control system (US), with the subsequent counting of the number of control signals (Nx), resulting from the relationship Nx = f(Qp, Qx, Ucc, Up, T), sent from said control system (US) as necessary to charge the capacitor (Cx), and then the previously-charged capacitor (Cp) is discharged to said threshold voltage (Up) preset by said control system (US) and the quantities of determined control signals (Nx) are compared with the reference state and the obtained difference in those signals indicates the presence of a conductive or dielectric environment in the immediate environment of the capacitor (Cx).

Abstract: An automatic mirror rotation assembly for a vehicle including a tractor and semi-detached trailer is provided. An elongated arm supporting a rotatable wheel attaches to a support mounted at a selected position on the tractor chassis. The arm is pivoted upward until the wheel contacts the underside of the trailer, and is kept engaged with substantially constant pressure. As the vehicle turns, the rotation of the trailer with respect to the tractor is measured by counting rotations or partial rotations of the wheel against the underside surface of the trailer. A corresponding degree of passenger-side rear view mirror is calculated, and a motor automatically rotates the mirror. A feedback device measures the actual rotation of the mirror and feeds that information back to the assembly.

Une fibre optique à élément de remplacement traitée au laser est placée au sein de l'âme de la ferrule et s'étend sur une distance prédéterminée au-delà de la face arrière de la ferrule. Une caractéristique d'alignement peut fonctionner pour auto-centrer la fibre optique à élément de remplacement et une fibre optique de champ, de manière à réaliser une épissure mécanique au moyen d'un dispositif de came. Un procédé de traitement laser d'une fibre optique à élément de remplacement consiste à faire tourner la fibre optique à élément de remplacement et à balayer un faisceau laser dirigé à un angle souhaité dans un mouvement de va-et-vient sur une surface de la fibre optique. Un mouvement oscillant du laser est activé par un signal sinusoïdal intermittent qui se solde par deux dépôts d'énergie sur ladite fibre optique à élément de remplacement, puis, par une période de refroidissement, avant que ne se produisent des dépôts subséquents d'énergie.

Abstract: A drive system for imparting motion to a treating implement such as a toothbrush or the like includes a cam rotatably driven around an axis of rotation by a motor. The cam has a closed loop cam track eccentric to the axis of rotation. A control member is disposed between the cam and the treating implement head. The control member has a control slot extending completely through the control member. A pivot member is located between the control member and the treating implement head. The drive system further includes a drive shaft with its drive end freely mounted in the cam track. The drive shaft extends through the control slot and through the pivot member with its driven end operatively connected to the drive connection of the implement head. As a result, when the cam member is rotated the direction of movement of the drive shaft is controlled by the drive shaft being confined for sliding movement in the control slot. The drive shaft is still capable of rotating because of its free mounting in the cam track. The torque and the angle of oscillation imparted to the movable treating elements is determined by the location of the pivot member with respect to the treating head.

Abstract: An access point in a multi-antenna system broadcasts data using spatial spreading to randomize an "effective" channel observed by each user terminal for each block of data symbols broadcast by the access point. At the access point, data is coded, interleaved, and modulated to obtain ND data symbol blocks to be broadcast in NM transmission spans, where ND >=1 and NM >1. The ND data symbol blocks are partitioned into NM data symbol subblocks, one subblock for each transmission span. A steering matrix is selected (e.g., in a deterministic or pseudo-random manner from among a set of L steering matrices) for each subblock. Each data symbol subblock is spatially processed with the steering matrix selected for that subblock to obtain transmit symbols, which are further processed and broadcast via NT transmit antennas and in one transmission span to user terminals within a broadcast coverage area.

Abstract: Various settings used in a process proceeding in line with a flow chart are reset (S100). An oxygen current (Inew) is measured (S101). A slope of the oxygen current is obtained (SA). A determination is made as to whether or not the slope can be considered to become stable (SB). A first measuring time is determined (SC).  In order to determine the stability of the slope, the oxygen current (Inew) is sequentially measured and the slope of the oxygen current is updated until the slope is determined to become stable. When the slope is determined to become stable, the first measuring time is determined (SC). When the slope is not determined to become stable, the oxygen current (Inew) is further measured.
