Patent EP-1109072-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHLUETER EDWARD L JR
IPC: B29C70/52
Filed: 2000-12-12
Abstract: A method of manufacturing flexible belts from fibers. Fibers that form the flexible
belt are soaked with a liquid elastomer. The liquid elastomer soaked fibers are formed into
the shape of a belt, beneficially by wrapping the fibers around a mandrel. The belt-shaped
and soaked fibers are then cured. Multiple layer flexible belts can be formed by soaking
fibers with a first liquid elastomer, wrapping those fibers around a mandrel, and then
curing the mandrel to form a belt layer. Then, fibers are soaked with a second liquid
elastomers. Those soaked fibers are then wrapped around the mandrel/belt layer. The
fibers soaked with the second elastomer are then cured, forming a belt having two layers.
The formed belt is then removed from the mandrel. The fibers and liquid elastomer(s) are
beneficially chosen to introduce desirable belt properties.

Abstract: In a planar optical waveguide amplifier according to our invention, a first and a second
planar waveguide are in contact with each other, with the second planar waveguide comprising a
rare earth doped planar waveguide. The second planar waveguide is tapered to facilitate
substantially adiabatic coupling of electromagnetic radiation of a first wavelength, e.g., signal
radiation of about 1.5µm, from the first planar waveguide to the second planar waveguide.
Adiabatic coupling of pump radiation from the first to the second planar waveguide is also
contemplated. The tapers typically have 100:1 or more length-to-thickness ratio. The planar
optical waveguide amplifier is advantageously used in optical waveguide communication systems.

Abstract: A zero determination signal generating
circuit which generates a zero determination signal
for determining whether or not the output data of a
shifter is zero is provided. With the zero
determination signal generating circuit of the
present invention, high-speed zero determination can
be achieved. More specifically, in a case where the
shifter functions as a left shifter, as a shifting
operation of a left shifter unit (including a
plurality of left shifters) is performed,
predetermined bits in the outputs of left shifters
having a shift amount of 0 are subjected to an OR
operation or buffered so as to generate a zero
determination signal. In a case where the shifter
functions as a right shifter, as a shifting
operation of a right shifter unit (including a
plurality of right shifters) is performed,
predetermined bits in the outputs of right shifters
having a shift amount of 0 are subjected to an OR
operation or buffered so as to generate a zero

Abstract: A legged mobile robot possesses degrees of freedom which
are provided at roll, pitch, and yaw axes at a trunk. By
using these degrees of freedom which are provided at the
trunk, the robot can smoothly get up from any fallen-down
posture. In addition, by reducing the required torque and
load on movable portions other than the trunk, and by
spreading/averaging out the load between each of the movable
portions, concentration of a load on a particular member is
prevented from occurring. As a result, the robot is operated
more reliably, and energy is used with greater efficiency
during a getting-up operation. It is possible for the robot
to independently, reliably, and smoothly get up from various
fallen-down postures such as a lying-on-the-face posture, a
lying-on-the-back posture, and a lying sideways posture.

Abstract: A vacuum control system for controlling vacuum while an animal is being milked. The vacuum control system comprises a vacuum pump which is interconnected to a buffer vessel via a vacuum line. Each teat cup of the milking apparatus has a milk line which interconnects the teat cup to the buffer vessel. The teat cup is also interconnected to the vacuum pump via a pulse line which contains a pulsator. A regulator which includes an rpm governor and an electronic filter unit is connected to the vacuum pump and also by the filter unit to a vacuum sensor which, in turn is connected to the vacuum line. The filter unit is connected both to the rpm governor and to an electronic fast-acting control valve which is activated by the regulator on the basis of signals which it receives from the vacuum sensor. If the vacuum decreases in the vacuum line (and thus the buffer vessel) as result of, for example, a teat cup being disconnected from the teat of an animal being milked, the rpm governor causes the vacuum pump to increase its rpm and therefore capacity whereby the vacuum and vacuum line is maintained in a constant value. On the other hand, if the vacuum and vacuum line increases over its desired level, the electronic fast-acting valve is actuated to admit air to the vacuum line and thereby maintain the vacuum therein at a constant desired level.
