Patent EP-1061206-A3 (EP)
Inventor: YU TERESA
IPC: E04H15/40
Filed: 2000-06-15
Abstract: A self-supporting structure (100) comprising first
and second resilient loops (110 and 120) intersecting with
each other at two positions (A and B). Each of the loops
(110 and 120) is self-expanding by virtue of its
resilience. The structure (100) includes flexible panels
(140 to 170) extending across the loops (110 and 120) for
stretching to limit the extent to which the loops (110 and
120) expand in space into a self-standing expanded
configuration for use. The loops (110 and 120) are capable
of being pivoted to lie substantially flat with each other
and then coiled into a plurality of much smaller turns
into a collapsed configuration for storage.

Abstract: A CT imaging system employs a command sequencer (52) to control the
operation of the x-ray source (13) and the data acquisition system (24). The
command sequencer stores a set of commands in a FIFO memory that are
read out in sequence to perform a scan. Each command contains a count
field which indicates how long it is active and other fields enable different
clock sources to be selected, enable commands to be repeated and enable
command execution to be halted.

Abstract: A problem during the setting of a
plurality of capillaries is eliminated by providing
pairs of electrodes, which are electrically connected
to the common electrode, and capillaries. 
     By bringing electrodes (23) installed in the
vicinity of each capillary (2a) disposed at the pitch
of wells on the side of sample plate (5) (within the
area of the wells) into electrical contact with a
common electrode (24), the capillaries (2a) and
electrodes (23) are made integral in construction.
When a voltage is applied to the electrophoretic
instrument via a common electrode portion (24), the
voltage is applied to the electrodes (23) for each
capillary. This enables an inexpensive microtiter
plate, etc. to be used and a multiple of capillaries to
be simultaneously inserted, attached and detached.

Abstract: The MEMS thermal actuator (10) includes a
microelectronic substrate (14) having a first surface (26) and at least one anchor structure (18,20) affixed
to the first surface (26). A composite beam (12) extends from the anchor(s) (18,20) and overlies the first
surface (26) of the substrate (14). The composite beam (12) is adapted for thermal actuation, such that it
will controllably deflect along a predetermined path that extends substantially parallel to
the first surface (26) of the microelectronic substrate (14). In one embodiment the composite beam (12)
comprises two or more layers (28,30) having materials that have correspondingly different thermal
coefficients of expansion. An electrically conductive path may extend
throughout the composite beam (12) to effectuate thermal actuation. In one embodiment of
the invention a two layer composite beam comprises a first layer (28) of a semiconductor
material and a second layer (30) of a metallic material. The semiconductor material may be
selectively doped during fabrication so as to create a self-contained heating mechanism
within the composite beam. The invention also comprises a MEMS thermal actuator that
includes two or more composite beams disposed in an array.

Abstract: This device for elastically locking constituent parts of compasses
has the characteristic of offering two fixed seats (3A,3B) rigid with the
compass structure (1), for housing an elongate body (9) to be retained,
they being spaced apart by a movable intermediate seat (5)
substantially aligned with said fixed seats, the movable seat
being present in a member of transverse axis which axially
receives a thrust from elastic means (11) for creating a central
transverse force on the elongate body to give rise to lateral
reactions which produce a gripping effect, said elastic means
being able to be subjected to a thrust in the opposite direction
by a manual command, in order to nullify the gripping effect, as
required for inserting or extractingly removing the elongate body.

Abstract: In a signal processing circuit for separating a color video signal into a luminance signal
and a chrominance signal, whether the correlation relating to the high frequency
component of luminance signal and chrominance signal of color video input signal is high
or low before and after one horizontal scanning period is detected by a vertical
correlation detecting circuit, and the presence or absence of correlation of the detected
output signal in the horizontal scanning line is detected by a horizontal correlation
detecting circuit. The output signal of the horizontal correlation detecting circuit before
and after one horizontal scanning period is supplied into a logic circuit, and depending on
the gate output signal obtained therein, the high frequency component of luminance
signal and chrominance signal before and after one horizontal scanning period are
processed in an operation processing circuit, and a chrominance signal is delivered.
Furthermore, this chrominance signal can be obtained through a variable filter circuit
capable of changing over the band pass characteristic depending on the output signal of
the logic circuit.

Abstract: In a vehicular braking control apparatus and method, the hydraulic pressure
on a wheel cylinder (6FR, 6FL, 6RR, 6RL) is gradually reduced with a relatively
gentle gradient of reduction (k3) (S216) at the time when a brake operation member
(1), operated by an operating person of the vehicle, is detected to have been operated
to a predetermined position. At the time when a state of the braking operation is
detected to have reached a predetermined threshold (Pth), the hydraulic pressure (P)
on the wheel cylinder (6FR, 6FL, 6RR, 6RL) is reduced with a relatively great
gradient of reduction (k2) (S240). Therefore, it is possible to reduce vibrations of a
brake pedal (1) or the change in deceleration while adopting a relatively simple
construction.

IPC: H05K7/14

Abstract: An oil-cooled inverter for an electric traction motor that uses six IGBT switches
to generate 3-phase AC electrical current as its output. The switches are mounted on
heat sinks that use hot motor oil (hydraulic fluid) as the heat transfer fluid. An interior
of each of the heat sinks contains a heat transfer medium. The heat sink housing is
made of molybdenum, which has a thermal expansion rate equal to that of silicon. This
allows the circuitry of the inverter to be mounted directly on the top surface of the heat
sinks, as the expansion and contraction of the heat sink housing will match that of the
silicon substrate of the chips. Since both elements, the heat sink housing and the chip
substrate, expand and contract at an equal rate during heating and cooling, the problem
of the chip substrate cracking and breaking due to thermal flexing is eliminated. The
inverter is in most ways electrically equivalent to prior art inverters, but the upper surface
formed by the bank of heat sinks is electrically hot, and is used as part of the inverter
circuitry. This allows the elimination of the insulating plate on which the inverter circuitry
is normally mounted, as the chips of the inverter circuitry are mounted directly on the
upper surface of the heat sinks of the inverter.
