Abstract: L'invention concerne des moyens de marquage lumineux mis en circuit ou hors circuit, à diodes luminescentes, incorporés dans la chaussée, présentant une résistance particulièrement faible, tout an ayant en même temps une intensité lumineuse axiale élevée. La lumière provenant d'une puce-LED (2) est focalisée, par des coupelles (4), dans un corps en verre (6) directement mis en place. Les coupelles (4) sont d'une dimension si faible que la divergence du faisceau lumineux, conditionnée par la grandeur de la puce LED, engendre conjointement avec les composants de lumière diffuse, déjà directement la répartition lumineuse requise. Le corps en verre (6) guide la lumière provenant de l'intérieur protégé de la lampe, obliquement vers le haut, d'où elle sort, par une face de sortie (7) inclinée environ à 45°, sous la forme d'un faisceau sensiblement horizontal. Les faces d'entrée et de sortie (5 et 7) du corps en verre (6) sont d'une hauteur correspondant au diamètre des coupelles (4), la longueur du corps en verre (6) correspondant à l'angle de divergence du faisceau lumineux. La face de sortie (7) présente une courbure ayant un foyer se situant dans la zone de la face d'entrée (5). Le dispositif est protégé par un boîtier (9) dans lequel le corps en verre (6) est collé hermétiquement au moyen d'un adhésif absorbant la lumière (10).

Inventor: ALVAREZ BELEN
IPC: F16D65/18
Filed: 2002-12-13
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for controlling an electromechanical calliper of a disc brake system, which consists in determining a pad/ brake disc contact position ( theta f0) and at each disc brake release phase in controlling an electric motor so as to push back a piston away from the brake disc up to a first target position ( theta target 1) spaced apart from the contact position ( theta f0) by a first predefined amount such that the electromechanical calliper does not substantially exert any brake application force on the brake pads, and then in controlling the electric motor so as to move forward the piston from the first target position towards the brake disc up to a second target position ( theta target 2) spaced apart from the contact position ( theta f0) by a second predefined amount, less than the first predefined amount. The second target position is a standby position for a next application/release cycle of the disc brake. The second predefined amount is selected so as to obtain a minimum residual braking torque at the end of the current release phase and a minimum response time of the disc brake for the next application/release cycle.

Abstract: A component interface module (CIM) arbitrates through priority logic component command signals from redundant systems and integrates the selected priority command signal with component feedback signals in component logic to generate a control signal for a component in a complex plant. The non-software based CIM is programmable for use with a variety of plant components. The component logic includes blocking logic that prevents or terminates generation of the control signal such as when component activation has been completed. Diagnostics incorporated into the CIM include: an input port interface test, a pulse test that continuously checks fo r proper propagation of test pulses through the priority and component logic, and a test of the functioning of the CIM output device such as a relay.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of processing a digital image encoded and decoded in accordance with a pixel-block encoding technique, suitable for supplying a motion vector per block of pixels and a quantization step per image. Said method comprises a step of selecting said decoded image if its quantization step is larger than a predetermined threshold, and a step of detecting pixel blocks having a secondary grid. Said detection step comprises a sub-step of detecting a uniform block of the decoded image, a sub-step of selecting a uniform block of non-zero motion and with an amplitude which is smaller than a predetermined amplitude threshold, and a sub-step of localizing a secondary grid within a uniform block selected as a function of its motion vector. Such a method has the advantage that the performance of a method of correcting block effects or evaluating the quality of said decoded image is enhanced. Moreover, said method has a small complexity, which renders it possible to use it in real time in portable multimedia apparatus.
