Patent EP-1325823-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FORREST WAYNE O
IPC: B60H1/00
Filed: 2002-12-12
Abstract: An improved vehicle heating and air conditioning system (10) includes a
driver-manipulated temperature selector (94) that is physically coupled to a
discharge temperature control mechanism (56). The selector (94) is operable in
a normal mode in which movement of the selector (94) away from a full cold
setting produces a corresponding movement of the temperature control
mechanism (56) that increases the discharge air temperature by re-heating or a
high fuel efficiency mode in which movement of the temperature selector (94)
away from the full cold setting allows the temperature control mechanism (56)
to remain in a full cold position for a limited range of selector movement while
the discharge air temperature is increased by capacity reduction of the
refrigerant compressor (12). The temperature selector (94) is in the form of a
rotary knob (122) that is axially shiftable to change modes when the selector
(94) is positioned at the full cold setting and spring-biased so that the normal
mode is established as the default mode.

Abstract: An information recording and reproducing apparatus for optically
recording/reproducing information to/from a two-layer optical disk (1)
comprises a cylindrical lens (57), which gives astigmatism to a reflected
light from a target information recording layer (14), two caustic curve
positions (101,102) are arranged in the front and in the rear of the optical
detector (58), and an unnecessary reflected light from an another
information recording layer has two caustic curve positions (103,104)
arranged in the rear of the optical detector (58). In this condition,
assuming an astigmatism direction of the cylindrical lens (57) is inclined
at 45 degree angle to a track direction, a projected image of the target
information recording layer (14) is inclined at 90 degree angle to an
another projected image of the another information recording layer (12) in
a light receiving surface of the optical detector (58).

Abstract: The invention seeks to provide an electronic apparatus in which a generator can
be halted for sure when the rotation of the generator is slow and in which the generator
is prevented from being halted due to a disturbance, etc. so that the duration will be
extended. An electronically controlled mechanical timepiece, which is an electronic
apparatus, comprises a generator 2 which is driven by a mainspring 1 to generate an
electric energy, and a rotation controlling unit 50 which is driven by the electric energy
to control the rotation rate of the generator 2. The rotation controlling unit 50 comprises
a brake controlling unit 55 which compares a rotation detection signal FG1 in
accordance with the rotation rate of the generator 2 with a reference signal fs to control
braking on the generator 2, and a generator halting unit 56 which applies a brake and
halts the generator 2 if the braking amount applied to the generator 2 in a preset time is
smaller than or equal to a first braking preset value. Because the generator 2 is halted in
accordance with the braking amount in a preset time, the generator 2 is prevented from
being halted due to a temporary disturbance while the generator 2 is halted for sure
when the rotation becomes slow.

that has, in plan view, a shape that is approximately cross-like or T-like, so
as to form a flat body (3) provided with one or more projections (4a, 4b, 7a,

Abstract: The invention discloses a flat-plate lens to be built
in an optical recording medium for improving the image-forming
characteristics of the recording medium. The flat-plate
lens of the invention comprises a layered thin film
having a periodical structure in the direction of thickness
thereof corresponding to a wavelength slightly longer than
the wavelength of the light used for recording and
retrieving information into and from the recording medium.
The thin film of a periodical structure is formed by
alternate lamination of pluralities of layers of two materials
having different refractive indices such as a combination
of MgF 2  and ZnS. When the thin film having such a
periodical structure is formed with good uniformity all
over the surface, the image-forming performance on the
recording layer can be uniform irrespective of the position
on the flat-plate lens.

Abstract: Auxialiary data subband samples representing an auxiliary
data signal (315) are transported in a subband-coded
compressed digital audio signal without decompressing the
data. A pre-existing packetized data stream (305) is
provided to an input of an encoder (310). Subband audio
samples (406) are extracted from the packet stream and
normalized (408). The data to be transported modulates data
carrier subbands (SPD0, ---SPD-1, including a pseudo-noise
(PN) spread spectrum signal, each subband of which has a
bandwidth corresponding to those of the digital audio signal,
The modulated data carrier sequence is combined with the
audio subband samples (SS1, SS2---SSN-1) to form a combined
signal (452), then muLtiplexed (460) into pre-existing packet
stream (407). In the decoder (368), the combined signal is
demodulated to recover the auxiliary data signal (672). The
recovered auxiliary data signal is carried substantially
inaudibly in the audio signal and is spectrally shaped
according to the audio signal to enhance concealment.
