Title: Power control system
Filed: 2012-04-27
Abstract: A pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller 103 toggles a control switch TR1 between ON and OFF states. The voltage across a charge storage unit such as capacitor C5 increases as it is charged and is detected at an input RT/CT. A voltage sustain unit 105 holds the voltage of the charge storage unit C5 at a holding voltage which is less than the timing voltage threshold of the pulse-width modulation controller 103. The sustain unit can be connected in parallel with the capacitor and comprise a resistor R4 whose resistance sets the holding voltage and a switch such as transistor TR6 which is toggled in response to the output of the PWM controller. The PWM controller can be used in a switch mode power supply which it enables to operate using near to one hundred percent duty cycle, eliminating dead time, and at high efficiency where the desired output voltage is close to the input voltage.

Title: Data encoding and decoding
IPC: H04N19/593
Filed: 2012-06-22
Abstract: Video coding / decoding in which 4:2:2 luminance and chrominance samples are predicted according to a prediction direction (1-34) comprises detecting a direction in respect of a current block (1220) to be predicted. A predicted block of chrominance samples is generated according to other chrominance samples defined by the direction. If the direction is vertical, the left column of samples in the predicted block of chrominance samples is filtered e.g. using a horizontal filter. If the direction is horizontal, the top row of samples in the predicted block of chrominance samples is filtered, e.g. using a vertical filter. The difference between the filtered predicted chrominance block and the actual chrominance block is encoded, or a decoded difference is applied to the filtered predicted chrominance block, to encode or decode the block. Also disclosed is indicating whether luminance difference data is to be included in an output bitstream losslessly, and independently indicating whether chrominance difference data is to be included in the bitstream losslessly. Further disclosed is selecting, for a particular coding unit, a size and shape of one or more prediction units, detecting a prediction direction for each prediction unit, and generating a predicted block of samples according to other samples defined by the direction.

Title: Flexible tube pump
Inventor: STREICHER MANFRED
IPC: F04C5/00
Filed: 1984-05-30
Granted: 1986-10-16
Abstract: A stricture pump (30) comprising a casing (31) containing a delivery hose (32), a rotor (33) and a band-like dividing member (34) which is substantially stable in respect of length, and which is fastened to a fastening part (53, 55, 57) outside the outermost periphery of the rotor, in such a manner as to be fixed to the casing, and in addition is disposed around the rotor. Together with the casing walls, the dividing member closes off sealingly a suction chamber (38.1). On the rotation of the rotor, this closed-off suction chamber is increased in size, whereby a negative pressure is produced in it. Fluid is thereby forced from a suction branch (45) into that portion of the hose which lies within the suction chamber. On the further rotation of the rotor, the fluid drawn in is pressed out of the hose by rollers (52) on the rotor, these rollers pressing by way of the dividing member (34) against the hose disposed between the dividing member and the peripheral wall (37) of the casing. The hose has substantially no restoring power of its own, and therefore draws in fluid not through its own restoring power but through the negative pressure in the suction chamber. A stricture pump of this kind can be operated at a very high speed of rotation, so that high output can be achieved.

Granted: 1987-10-15
Abstract: A double coupling comprising two flexible couplings are connected to each other through an intermediate hollow shaft and have outer parts on each and each with a hub and radially extending arms between which rubber blocks shaped as ring segments are inserted in a prestressed state. The rubber blocks each comprise a central, radially inwardly narrowing wedge to which two rubber members carrying plates on their free surfaces are symmetrically vulcanized on either side. The wedges are connected to corresponding claws of the intermediate shaft. The wedge and claws, along with the intermediate shaft serves as a common hub portion and form an inner part of the flexible coupling. One hub is secured to a solid shaft and the other hub is secured to a hollow shaft. The solid shaft extends through the hollow shaft and they move relative to each other, even in misaligned positions. As compared to similar prior art couplings for transmitting comparable power, the weight of such a doubling coupling is reduced.
