Patent EP-0803673-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ROHRBECK HERIBERT
IPC: F16K13/10
Filed: 1997-04-18
Abstract: When a magnetic field is applied the magnetic fluid (3) is excited, interrupting the flow path from at least one gas inlet (2) to one or more gas outlets (6) in a gastight manner. Without the application of a magnetic field gas flows through the path. The fluid state (5) is so adjusted at the gas inlet and outlet that when the inlet and outlet are opened fluid has gas flowing through it. The magnetic field on opening at least one gas inlet and/or one gas outlet acts in such a direction and strength on the fluid that the latter is displaced in the area of the inlet and/or outlet so that gas without flowing through the fluid can pass directly from the inlet to the outlet. The valve is a 2/2 path valve or a multi-path valve.

Abstract: A traffic control apparatus in an exchange,
comprised of an incoming cell analyzing means for
identifying if incoming cells are fixed band cells or
variable band cells, separating the two, and calculating
the total fixed band cell flow and the total variable
band cell flow, an incoming cell amount decision means
for instructing the allocation of the amount of cells to
be discarded among subscribers of the variable band
service by a predetermined ratio when the sum total cell
flow, that is, the sum of the calculated total fixed band
cell flow and total variable band cell flow, exceeds an
allowable cell flow, and an incoming cell limiting means
for discarding cells from among the incoming variable
band cells in accordance with the instruction. Due to
this, when subscribers using the variable band (e.g.,
UBR) service through an exchange use the exchange with a
greater working band width than the allowable band width,
the discarding of cells is fairly apportioned out among
the subscribers.

Abstract: A variable area valve and pressure regulator for providing fuel vapor purge
control in an evaporative emission control system of an automotive vehicle. A solenoid
valve assembly selectively controls fluid communication between a fuel vapor source
and an intake manifold by varying the area of an orifice associated with the solenoid
valve assembly. A pressure regulator assembly is responsive to pressure differentials
between an inlet cavity and an outlet cavity to further control the flow through the
purge regulator. In operation, the purge regulator assembly is operable to generate
nonlinear output flow characteristics which are independent of changes in the intake
manifold vacuum, as well as the inlet pressure, and which further provides the desired
nonlinear response.

Abstract: The balancing of rotors for dynamo-electric machines (e.g., electric
motor armatures ) is achieved by attaching a balancing strip (S) to the
rotor (10) after an impregnation resin has been applied to the wire
coils (21), and the unbalance of the rotor has been measured. To create
the balancing strip, a material supply (12) selectively and
incrementally delivers a predetermined quantity of material (L), such
that the quantity of material has a mass sufficient to compensate for
the measured unbalance of the rotor. The predetermined quantity of
material is separated from the material supply (12) to form a balancing
mass, and the balancing mass attached to the rotor (10) to compensate
for the measured unbalance. A mounting member (40) having a recess may
be preliminarily attached to the rotor for subsequent attachment of the
balancing mass thereto. A second material supply (115) may be provided
such that a controller (119) can select between the first (112) and
second (115) material supplies.

Abstract: A sheet feed sensor (116) is designed to have a first given voltage response condition for
sensing sheets within a first range of paper weight values and a second given voltage response
condition for sensing sheets within a second range of paper weight values. A current value supplied
to the emitter (118) of the sensor (116) can be controlled to provide the desired voltage response or
a resistance in a phototransistor collector circuit can be varied to provide the desired voltage
response condition. If the first range of paper weight values is lighter than the second range of
paper weight values, the sensor (116), when in the first given voltage response condition, will have
a voltage response, when sensing a sheet of a given paper weight, which is higher than the voltage
response when the same sensor senses a sheet of the same paper weight, when the sensor (116)
is in the second given voltage response condition. This way the difference between a voltage
response at the phototransistor for a single sheet and a voltage response for two sheets, each of the
same paper weight as the single sheet, fed through the sensor is large enough throughout all paper
weight ranges to obviate the possibility of voltage response overlap.
