Patent EP-1006654-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MOREL PHILIPPE
IPC: H03K5/08
Filed: 1999-11-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for
converting, by virtue of a threshold, a signal
exhibiting alternating rising and falling transitions,
into a rectangular signal. 
     The process is characterized in that the
threshold is determined on each transition of the
signal to be converted. 
     A device for implementing this process
comprises:
     a delay line (30), whose input (38) receives
the signal (36) to be converted by way of an impedance
(34) equal to the characteristic impedance of the line,
and   a comparator (40) whose inputs are linked
respectively to the input (38) and to the output (32)
of the line (30).

Abstract: Message systems in the form of email/fax/voice message systems whereby
each message is defined by a message signal comprising a code signal (sender
or urgency or confidentiality) and a content signal (content or attachments) can
have a filtering function. Said code signal is used for said filtering function. To
improve the user-friendlyness, said message system is provided with a generator
for generating a speech announcement signal for announcing information with
respect to specific filtered messages ("there are two messages from Mr. A and
three messages from Mr. B"). In addition, a further speech announcement could
be generated for announcing information with respect to all messages ("there are
ten new messages").

Abstract: Alkene oxides are produced in a continuous integrated two-step process performed in liquid
phase. Step I comprises the oxidation of a secondary alcohol with molecular oxygen to
generate hydrogen peroxide at moderate temperature and pressure. This reaction mixture
is introduced directly to an olefmic substrate maintained in organic solvent at elevated
pressure. During step II of the procedure the olefins undergo epoxidation by the hydrogen
peroxide in the presence of a catalyst of titanium-impregnated, amorphous silica. The
integrated process requires no intermediate purification or enrichment step and it is
particularly well adapted to the production of propylene oxide.

Abstract: Apparatus to lay sliver (1) in a double coil in a stationary sliver can (7) has two belt drives. First belt drive (35) gives a transmission connection between central main drive (34) and rotating laying plate (8), and is stationary in relation to the machine frame (15). Second belt drive (36), mounted on the laying plate, gives a transmission connection between laying plate and rotating plate (5). Belt wheels (10,16) are at the laying plate (8), to be engaged by the belt (9) of the first belt drive (35). At least two double-belt wheels (10) are on the laying plate (8), to work with the two belts (9,11) of the two belt drives (35,36). The belt (11) of the second drive (36) is in contact with the belt wheels (10) during all the rotating positions of the laying plate (8) and lies at least partially on a mantle surface (37) of the rotating plate (5). Each double-belt wheel (10) has two belt wheels, rigidly bonded together, rotating at the same speed on a common axis (40). Preferred Features: At least two further single-belt wheels (16) are mounted additionally on the laying plate (8) as guide wheels for the belt (9) of the first belt drive (35). The rotating plate (8) can carry three double-belt wheels (10), and the belt (11) of the second belt drive (36) lies at the three wheels at all the rotating positions of the plate (8). It also carries four additional single-belt wheels (16) to guide the belt (9) of the first belt drive (35). The belt (9) of the first belt drive (35) works together with a drive wheel of an auxiliary drive, to rotate it. The auxiliary drive is mounted at the machine frame (15), to act on a drive wheel for the laying plate (8). The auxiliary drive has a crank drive system with a crankshaft and at least one crank rod, and a freewheel system with at least one freewheel and a drive shaft. The drive wheel is connected to the crankshaft. The outer end of the crank rod works with the freewheel, and the drive wheel is linked to the drive shaft. The crankshaft can have two cranks, offset from each other by 180 degrees , with two crank rods working with two freewheels at the freewheel system. The rotating plate (5) is fitted with a contact plate (13) for a friction wheel (14) with a drive shaft. The drive shaft operates a pair of calender rollers (3) at the sliver feed (2). The belts (9,11) of the first and/or second belt drives (35,36) have a round cross section. The first belt drive (35) has at least two deflection wheels (19), to deflect the belt (9) from a horizontal into a vertical path. The deflection wheel (19) is on a sliding mounting at the machine frame (15), as a tensioner for the belt (9). A drive wheel (12) of the main drive (34) is at the vertical path of the belt (9).

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a PLL comprising the phase comparator 20,
loop filter 21, VCO 14 and loop counter 22, wherein there are further provided a prediction
window circuit 23 for outputting HWIN (prediction window signal) for predicting the point at
which the REF (reference signal) is generated, an omission compensation circuit 24 for
detecting the omission of the REF at the time when HWIN is outputted and outputting
d.VARX (the second correction signal) to offset the phase difference between d.REFX (the
first correction signal) and the VAR (comparison signal) so that the phase comparator 20
outputs the signals Ph1 and Ph2 corresponding to the phase difference between the VAR and
the d.REFX and the signals Ph1 and Ph2 corresponding to the phase difference between
d.REFC and d.VARX when the omission of the REF has occurred, thereby enabling proper
compensation for omission to be made and stable CLK (clock) to be generated even when
VCO 14 having a very wide frequency variation range is used. Further, a circuit for
generating the gate control signal Gc by advancing the phase of the VAR by 1 clock so that
not only the 3-state signal corresponding to the phase difference between the REF and VAR
can be outputted but also the 3-state buffers, which can be controlled in active state according
to the signal Gc can be made available, whereby accurate control voltage corresponding to the
phase difference can be outputted to the VCO to generate stable CLK even when the phase
difference between the REF and VAR is close to 0.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to restrict a part of intake
flow which is apt to flow in a direction opposite to a counter swirl
flow after colliding against a valve stem, and to produce an intense
swirl while controlling a worsening of flow coefficient. A valve seat
supporting annular stepped surface(14) is formed on an intake port
outlet portion of a cylinder head (1), its inner peripheral edge is
formed into a shape having an inner peripheral edge (4a) of a valve
stem (4)for serving as a base circle, and a extending portion (15)
projecting toward a side of a valve stem (11) is provided on a radial
intake port inlet side portion. The extending portion (15) is formed
into a mountain-like shape which widens from a top portion projecting
toward the valve stem side to both peripheral sides and connects to
the base circle at its foot ends; or into an arc-like shape; or into
a trapezoidal shape. A back wall (16) is formed on a side opposite
to the valve seat of the extending portion (15), the back wall decreasing
its projecting height toward an upstream side in the intake port to
smoothly connect to an inner peripheral wall surface of the intake port

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un lecteur et/ou enregistreur de données portable comportant un couvercle (2) qui peut être facilement monté sur le boîtier (1) du lecteur de disque, ou démonté, par un utilisateur. Dans ce but, ledit couvercle (2) est muni de pattes de fixation (16, 17) qui, lorsque le couvercle est grand ouvert et forme un angle avec le boîtier, peuvent coulisser dans une première direction le long de charnières (7, 8) du boîtier (1) jusqu'à une position d'aboutement. En position d'ouverture, une rainure (18) du couvercle (2) est en position d'aboutement avec un épaulement (11) du boîtier (1), ce qui empêche le couvercle (2) de se désolidariser du boîtier (1). Le couvercle peut être désolidarisé du boîtier (1) lorsqu'il est grand ouvert. Aucun épaulement n'empêche alors le coulissement des pattes de fixation du couvercle dans une seconde direction, opposée à la première direction, le long des charnières (7, 8) du boîtier. L'invention rend également possible le remplacement du couvercle sans aucun outil, de sorte qu'un utilisateur peut choisir la couleur du couvercle en fonction de son goût du moment.
