Title: Appareil ménager à écoulement d'eau comprenant une soupape d'admission d'eau à fonctionnement synchronisé
Inventor: BUESING JOHANNES
IPC: D06F33/34
Filed: 2007-11-28
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil ménager à écoulement d'eau, en particulier un lave-vaisselle ou un lave-linge, comprenant un système d'arrivée d'eau et une soupape d'admission d'eau électromagnétique actionnable électriquement destinée à commander l'arrivée d'eau, et un dispositif de commande, auquel est associé un programme de commande définissant l'excitation de la soupape d'admission d'eau. Cet appareil ménager est caractérisé en ce que le programme de commande est conçu de telle sorte que la soupape d'admission d'eau soit excitée pendant une première période (t1) et que l'on détecte, une fois la première période (t1) écoulée, si une quantité d'eau test prédéterminée (WM1) s'écoule à travers la soupape d'admission d'eau. Dans le cas où la quantité d'eau test prédéterminée (WM1) s'écoule à travers la soupape d'admission d'eau, la soupape d'admission d'eau est mise en œuvre dans un premier mode de fonctionnement, et dans le cas où la quantité d'eau test (WM1) prédéterminée ne s'écoule pas ou pas totalement à travers la soupape d'admission d'eau, la soupape d'admission d'eau est mise en œuvre dans un second mode de fonctionnement avec une charge permanente réduite par rapport au premier mode de fonctionnement. Une soupape d'admission d'eau présentant un organe de commande selon la présente invention est avantageuse en ce que, également en cas de pannes, comme en cas de manque d'eau dans le système d'eau douce, une surchauffe de la bobine électromagnétique est évitée.

Abstract: The invention relates to a signalling method using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), based on a preamble comprising N dedicated carriers (frequency pilots), the position and modulation of which is defined by one or more concatenated complementary sequences of length N. Complementary sequences are those for which the sum of the autocorrelations thereof is zero except for zero shift, i.e. a Krönecker delta. The main purpose of said preamble is to signal the basic properties of the transmitted signal and to provide a first estimation at the moment of time and frequency synchronisation. The preamble is multiplexed or sequenced temporally with the transmitted data using OFDM prior to the application of the inverse Fourier transform by the inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) block.

Abstract: In an image recording apparatus according to an aspect of the invention, a recording medium is allowed to be conveyed on a conveying path. An inversion guide portion connects a first portion of the conveying path positioned downstream of a recording unit to a second portion of the conveying path positioned upstream of the recording unit. A path changeover unit is disposed at the first portion of the conveying path and swingable between a recording medium discharge position and a recording medium inversion position. When the path changeover unit is positioned at the recording medium discharge position, the forward rotation of the roller pair allows the recording medium to be sent to a discharge portion. When the path changeover unit is positioned at the recording medium inversion position, the rearward rotation of the roller pair allows the recording medium to be sent to the inversion guide portion.

a) a crankshaft synchronised or in common with the first engine 
b) same valve distribution system, i.e. a twin camshaft for separately driving the inlet and the outlet valves, except that the cam profiles are opportunely modified Said second engine is however modified to eliminate or deactivate the injection as well as the ignition systems, so as to operate as simple expanding chamber, the exhaust gases of the first engine being led to flow into said chambers and further expand therein, thanks to a particular design of the second engine's cam (6,7) profiles. 
     The transfer of said gases takes place through a simple new component called "capacitor"(3), which is fluidly connected, and closely mounted (see  fig.2 ), to the exhaust pipe of the first engine (1) on one side, and fluidly connected to the inlet ducts of the second engine (2) on the other side, to form a common sealed volume between the two engines.

Abstract: For the estimation of the variation of the glucose level in the blood of a person the present invention uses the variation of the volume of the interstitial fluid compartments in muscular tissue due to a shift of fluid between the extracellular and intracellular compartments caused by variations of the osmotic pressure of the extracellular fluids which is in turn correlated with the glucose level. The variation of the volume of the interstitial fluid compartments is detected by means of a non-invasive conductometry measurement using electrodes placed in contact with the skin of the person overlying a portion of soft tissue including muscular fibers. To eliminate the adverse effect of the conductivity of the capillary vessels the invention measures the conductivity of the tissue independently in two directions, namely parallel and transverse to the muscular fibers. Because of the chaotic orientation of the capillary vessels, a variation of the conductivity caused by a variation of the volume of the vessels should be almost equal in both measuring directions. On the other hand, the conductivity parallel to the muscular fibers is in a larger scale determined by the volume of the interstitial fluid than transverse to the muscular fibers. A variation of the volume of the interstitial compartment thereby has a greater effect on the conductivity parallel than transverse to the muscular fibers.
