Granted: 1998-02-03
Abstract: An inflatable vehicle occupant restraint (10) includes a first panel (44) of woven fabric, a second panel (40) of woven fabric, and a seam (52) at which the first and second panels (44, 40) are fastened to each other. The seam (52) includes a folded part (80) of the first panel (44) and a folded part (70) of the second panel (40). The folded part (80) of the first panel (44) includes two lapped plies (82, 84) of the first panel (44). The folded part (70) of the second panel (40) includes two lapped plies (72, 74) of the second panel (40). The folded parts (80, 70) of the first and second panels (44, 40) overlap each other so as to define a double-lapped part (89) of the seam (52) which includes four lapped plies (82, 84, 72, 74) of the first and second panels (44, 40). A first row (94) of stitches fastens the four lapped plies (82, 84, 72, 74) of the first and second panels (44, 40) to each other. A second row (90) of stitches is spaced from the double-lapped part (89) of the seam (52) and fastens the two lapped plies (82, 84) of the first panel (44) to each other.

Abstract: A plank for use on a scaffold. The principal component is a hollow integral aluminum extrusion with an elongate rectangular shape transverse to its length. The extrusion has a top wall, a pair of spaced-apart opposing sidewalls extending downwardly from the top wall, and a longitudinal locking structure located between the sidewalls.  A complementary fastening assembly cooperates with the locking structure to secure the extrusion to a horizontal cross-member of the scaffold.  Sheet material containing mineral particulates is adhered to the upper surface of the extrusion to provide a non-slip walking surface.  After use in an environment containing dangerous contaminants, such as radioactive materials, the sheet material may be stripped for disposal and the extrusion cleaned with an appropriate solvent before re-application of fresh sheet material.

Abstract: A polyphase dynamoelectric machine (10) such as a switched reluctance motor has a stator assembly (12) and a rotor assembly (14). The rotor assembly is movable with respect to the stator assembly. The stator assembly includes a stator (16) having a plurality of stator poles (18). The rotor assembly includes a rotor (20) having a plurality of rotor poles (22). The stator assembly further includes a plurality of separately energizable stator windings (24) associated with the respective machine phases. These stator windings are energized and de-energized in a predetermined sequential manner to sequentially activate and deactivate themachine phases. Energization and de-energization of the respective stator windings is at least partially determined as a function of the machine's instantaneous rotor position. The machine includes a processor (26) for determining the rotor position. The processor monitors the waveform of a circulating current coupled from an energized stator winding for an active machine phase into a de-energized stator winding for an inactive machine phase. Respective energized and de-energized stator windings are interconnected to forma closed circuit path by which the current in the energized stator winding is coupled into the de-energized stator winding. Monitoring the resultant current waveform provides an indication of rotor position, and the processor uses this information to energize and de-energize the stator windings.

Title: Partially crystallizing enamel containing crystalline zinc borate seed material
Inventor: SAKOSKE GEORGE E
IPC: C03C17/02
Filed: 1997-04-23
Granted: 2007-03-13
Abstract: A ceramic enamel composition is described which contains a zinc-containing oxide frit, a zinc borate seed material, a pigment, and a vehicle. The zinc borate seed material is preferably crystalline in nature, and promotes crystal growth upon firing. A preferred crystalline zinc borate seed material is selected from the phases Zn3B2O6 and Zn(BO2)2. and mixtures thereof. Upon firing and press-forming a glass substrate coated with the enamel, components of the enamel adhere to the substrate while reducing sticking of the coated region to the forming die. The ceramic enamel is particularly useful in providing a colored border around the periphery of automotive glass, and is effective in improving appearance and reducing degradation of underlying adhesives by ultraviolet radiation.

Patent CA-2228919-C (CA)
Inventor: KASTURIA SANJAY
IPC: H04L27/00
Filed: 1998-02-05
Granted: 2001-11-27
Abstract: The along and perpendicular rails of a received signal (e.g., modulated using multi-phase shift keying) are rotated to compensate for frequency offsets between the carrier frequency of the received signal and the reference frequency of the local oscillator. The rotation angles are updated, based on the rotated along rail, during dotting sequences in the received signal. In one implementation, the dotting sequences are detected based on the rotate perpendicular rail. The beginnings of dotting sequences are detected by thresholding the average on the perpendicular rail and the ends of dotting sequences are detected by analyzing the encoded data for non-dotting-sequence values. In a cordless phone application, different dotting sequences may be used to distinguish base-to-handset transmissions from handset-to-base transmissions.

Granted: 2002-03-05
Abstract: L'invention porte sur une structure de commutation ATM susceptible d'expansion jusqu'à plusieurs térabits/s qui utilise un transfert de données dans une salve hétérogène d'une longueur constante. Cette structure emploie des rotateurs reliant des étages dans une configuration à trois étages. Dans un mode de réalisation, les cellules sont triées à l'entrée et un processus de correspondance s'opère entre le premier étage et l'étage du milieu. Ce commutateur, qui se commande aisément, a un rendement élevé au niveau de l'appel et des cellules. Il satisfait également aux exigences de base selon lesquelles des cellules doivent être distribuées selon un ordre adapté et le débit de chaque connexion individuelle aussi élevé que celui du port d'entrée. Dans le cas d'une expansion interne réduite, le commutateur est non bloquant en ce sens qu'aucun débit binaire acceptable à la fois pour les ports d'entrée et de sortie ne se verra garantir un passage à travers le coeur. Ce dispositif s'avère des plus utile en matière de services que peuvent réclamer de fréquentes variations de débit binaire durant le temps d'établissement d'une connexion.
