Title: Load management thermostat
Inventor: MUELLER CARL J
IPC: G05D23/00
Filed: 2008-05-09
Abstract: A thermostat is provided that is capable of reliably reducing the operation of an air conditioner and other systems to provide energy cost savings to the consumer and load reduction to the provider The thermostat includes a sensor(s) configured to communicate information indicative of the temperature within the space, and a memory for storing a temperature offset value(s) associated with a request for reduced heating or cooling operation The thermostat further includes a controller in communication with the sensor(s), which is configured to periodically determine a temperature value for the space and control heating or cooling of the space until the determined temperature value has substantially reached the set-point temperature The periodically determined temperature value is in part based on information received from the sensor(s), and may include the temperature offset value(s) when a request for reduced operation has been received by the thermostat.

Title: Method for reduction of aliasing introduced by spectral envelope adjustment in real-valued filterbanks
Inventor: KJOERLING KRISTOFER
IPC: G10L25/48
Filed: 2003-08-27
Abstract: The present invention proposes a new method for improving the performance of a real-valued filterbank based spectral envelope adjuster. By adaptively locking the gain values for adjacent channels dependent on the sign of the channels, as defined in the application, reduced aliasing is achieved. Furthermore, the grouping of the channels during gain-calculation, gives an improved energy estimate of the real valued subband signals in the filterbank.
Patent CA-2689643-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KUBO YOSHIHIKO
IPC: F02M35/04
Filed: 2006-06-23
Abstract: In an engine air cleaner, a suction opening (50) communicating with outside air and a discharge opening (16) communicating with an engine (E) are provided in an upper cover body (11) of a cleaner cover (10), a cleaner element unit (Ue) for cleaning the outside air sucked in via the suction opening (50) is housed within the upper cover body (11), and a skirt wall (11a) of the upper cover body (11) in the vicinity of the suction opening (50) extends further downward than the suction opening (50). This prevents raindrops running down the outer face of the cleaner cover body (11) from being sucked into the interior of the air cleaner via the suction opening (50). Further, a seal packing (68) and the cleaner element unit (Ue) are superimposed and fitted onto an outer periphery of an intake passage (17) within the cleaner cover body (10), the seal packing (68) preventing outside air from leaking directly into the discharge opening (16), and the seal packing (68) is provided with a retaining projection (75) that is tightly engaged with the intake passage (17). This prevents the seal packing (68) from being unintentionally detached from the cleaner cover body (10) when replacing the cleaner element unit (Ue), etc., thus preventing assembly of the seal packing (68) from being forgotten or the seal packing (68) from being lost. Furthermore, an air cleaner (AC) is disposed so as to be side by side with one side of the engine (E), a lower part of the cleaner cover body (10) is joined integrally to and supported on the engine (E) together with a carburetor (4) via a pair of connecting bolts (22, 23), and a reinforcing vertical wall portion (37) of the cleaner cover body (10) facing the engine (E) across a gap is joined integrally to and supported on the engine (E) via another connecting bolt (24). This enhances the rigidity with which the air cleaner is supported on the engine (E).
