Inventor: AUWETER HELMUT
IPC: C08B15/00
Filed: 2005-10-20
Abstract: The process for producing multilayered sheetlike structures, particles or fibers comprises the steps of (a) applying a reactive polycarboxylic acid or one of its derivatives atop a sheetlike, particulate or fibrous carrier material already comprising, or previously provided with, groups reactive toward, capable of covalent bonding with, the polycarboxylic acid or one of its derivatives, (b) if appropriate heating the carrier material treated in step (a) to a temperature in the range from 60° C. to 130° C. and preferably to a temperature in the range from 80° C. to 120° C. to hasten, complete or further optimize the covalent bonds, (c) applying atop the carrier material a cellulose capable of covalent bonding with the polycarboxylic acid or its derivatives. The present invention further relates to the use of the present invention's process for production of multilayered sheetlike structures, particles or fibers for hydrophilicizing surfaces, in particular for adhesion promotion between hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials and for improving the washability of synthetic fibers, the surfaces which are hydrophilicized by the process forming the sheetlike, particulate or fibrous carrier material.

Inventor: DUBOIS MARTIN J
IPC: B60W10/10
Filed: 2005-12-12
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a complementary regenerative torque system for a vehicle including an engine with an accelerator pedal position sensor. The regenerative torque system selectively stores and supplies energy to the drive train of the vehicle to provide on demand complementary torque.  The regenerative torque system may be hydraulic or electric in nature and may be disposed upstream or downstream of the transmission relative to the engine.  A regenerative torque control module is disposed between the accelerator pedal position sensor and the engine control module and intercepts the accelerator pedal position signal and modifies it in response to the mode of operation of the regenerative torque system and forwards the modified throttle signal to the engine control module. Likewise, the regenerative torque control module intercepts and modifies signals from the engine control module prior to broadcasting them to the rest of the vehicle~s control modules.

Abstract: An Automatic Digital Inventory Counter for calculating and displaying the amount of inventory at any point in time. The invention comprises special shelving mechanism units arranged in rows and columns with electrical switches to sense the inventory presence. The calculations i.e. the summations are done sequentially along the way to a final display unit, thus minimizing the number of wires required in the circuit. Calculations are done through -the well known--binary digit full or half adders to calculate the totals sequentially after passing each special shelving mechanism unit. The total of each row is added to the previous row - through binary full or half adders- until the final display unit is reached, thus enabling the device to display the amount of inventory on hand. The calculations are done almost instantaneous without any error and with hundred percent accuracy.
