Patent EP-1174814-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BOIES STEPHEN J
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2001-07-17
Abstract: A system, method, computer program, computer program article of
manufacture, and business method is disclosed for storing a plurality of
software products from a plurality of vendors on a central location in a
computer network. The method is performed by first associating a client
interface in the central location. Next, the client interface receives
client access and profile data, where that data is accessible to at least
one vendor database. After the client downloads the software, the software
is activated when a connection is established between client and the
central location. At least one algorithm to track usage of software by the
client is further activated while the client is connected to the central
location, so that at least one of the plurality of vendors may correlate a
market impression from (1) the client profile data, and (2) the software.

IPC: B41M9/04
Filed: 2001-10-01
Abstract: A sheet of elastomeric material that serves as a shock
absorber and cushion for use between a printing plate, such as
but not limited to a flexographic printing plate, and a printing
cylinder during printing for compensating for variations in
thickness, height and centricity of the printing cylinder and
printing plate to prevent distortions in the image being printed
that includes providing an elastomeric material having a
longitudinal direction in the direction of circumferential travel
of the cylinder circumference that includes a plurality or array
of protrusions formed of the elastomeric material of
predetermined cross-sectional shape and area and the material
having a durometer to cushion the printing plate in such a way to
provide the necessary compensation to ensure a high quality
printed image at high speed. The cross-sectional shapes and the
array of the longitudinal protrusions provide for the material's
lateral displacement zones that allows the elastomeric material
to be displaced and return relatively instantaneously to its
original height or near original height to obtain and maintain
high quality printing, thereby compensating for tolerance errors
between the drum size and the flexographic plate thickness.

Abstract: 3-(3-Methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methylbutyl aldehyde is
produced from 3-(3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methylbutyric
acid via a reaction for converting a carboxyl group into a formyl
group. From such aldehyde derivative, via a reductive

ester useful as a sweetener having a high potency of
sweetness can be derived easily and efficiently on an industrial
production. Therefore, the derivative is extremely excellent as
an intermediate for the production thereof. 
     The above butyric acid derivative is a novel compound,
which can be easily produced by subjecting 3-(3-methyl-4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methylbutyric
acid obtained in the reaction of
2-methoxytoluene with 3-methylcrotonic acid, to a reaction for

Abstract: The invention concerns a DSLAM-type concentrator routing ATM cell data (C1) in a network link (STM1) to groups of subscriber lines (LU1   LUP), and inversely multiplexing ATM cells. Several converters (11, 14, 21) successively convert the header of each first cell (C1) for a routing channel in a subscriber line into modified headers (C2, C3, C4) without changing the size so as not to reduce the bandwidth. Said headers are established by matching between a routing address (VPI/VCI) in the first cell and a logic channel number (NCL) containing a number (NUA) of the group (2i) to which the subscriber line belongs, a number (NLU) of the line in the group and a number (NCR) of the routing channel in the line, and between the logic channel number (NCL) and a routing address (VPI/VCI) of the routing channel in the line.

IPC: H02M3/155

Abstract: A low power mode and feedback arrangement for a switching power converter. Two or more main power switches (M1, M2), such as transistors, transfer energy from a supply to load (104) by their opening and closing. When the load (104) requires a relatively low power level, this condition is detected. In response, one or more of the transistor switches (M1, M2) is disabled from switching and the reduced power requirements of the load (104) are handled by the remaining one or more transistor switches (M1, M2). As a result, switching losses are reduced. This is because parasitic gate capacitance and on-resistance associated with the disabled switches no longer consume power from the power source. When additional power is required, one or more previously disabled switches (M1, M2) may be brought back into play to ensure that the power requirements of the load (104) are met.

Abstract: At the time of adjustment, a predetermined voltage is A/D
converted, and the difference between the true value is calculated
to store the error of the reference voltage for the A/D converter
(7) and the D/A converter (8) in the nonvolatile memory (12), while
at the time of lighting, by the error of the reference voltage which
is read out from the nonvolatile memory (12), the input voltage
as well as the output current are corrected, thereby correcting
the power so that it comes to a predetermined value. Further, the
error of the reference voltage is calculated at least once after
a predetermined time has elapsed since the lighting so as to follow
up variations in the output power due to a change with the passage
of time.

Title: Urinoir pour hommes
Inventor: LIM DAESONG
IPC: E03D13/00
Filed: 2001-04-27
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un urinoir à élévateur automatique utilisant des capteurs. Actuellement les utilisateurs mâles urinent dans des cuvettes unisexes ou des urinoirs fixes de sorte qu'il arrive souvent des cas d'urine éclaboussant hors de l'urinoir ou de la cuvette donnant lieu à des odeurs et à des conditions insalubres et utilisent la même quantité d'eau qu'en cas de défécation. L'invention propose une solution à ces problèmes en prévoyant un urinoir pour hommes qui calcule la hauteur appropriée à laquelle la cuvette d'urinoir doit se trouver pour chaque utilisateur mâle différent et ajuste la hauteur de la cuvette d'urinoir de manière à ce qu'il soit à la hauteur qui convienne à chaque utilisateur individuel. Cela procurera une aisance maximale d'utilisation and un éclaboussement minimal d'urine. Il comporte une cuvette d'urinoir (1), une planche principale coulissante (2) permettant à l'urinoir de coulisser verticalement, le réservoir d'eau (7), le moteur (8) entraînant la cuvette dans le sens vertical, un capteur de proximité permettant la détection d'un utilisateur qui s'approche et qui s'éloigne, un capteur de mesure de la hauteur (4) et une unité de commande (contrôleur matériel) qui déplace la cuvette d'urinoir verticalement vers une position calculée à une valeur appropriée. Les avantages de cette invention sont qu'elle procure une couverture inférieure complète de sorte qu'il ne permette pas l'éclaboussement d'urine afin d'optimiser les conditions d'hygiène. En outre, il n'utilise que la quantité d'eau nécessaire lors du nettoyage par chasse d'eau permettant ainsi d'économiser l'eau.

Abstract: Using fuel and air introduced for working a power
generation portion 20, cooling of the power generation
portion 20 is performed in a reaction gas heat exchanger

introducing air for cooling, and only compressed air
necessary for working is introduced. Thus, the power
